Welcome to Lights, Camera, Remake, where we try to answer the question “has Hollywood has truly run out of ideas?”
Did the most reviled movie of 2025 deserve all of the hate? Or only some hate? We’re looking at the infamous 2025 rendition of Snow White.
Snow White (2025)
A princess joins forces with seven dwarfs and a group of rebels to liberate her kingdom from her cruel stepmother the Evil Queen.
Please excuse our sound in this episode, we filmed in an echoey space.
***
On each episode we’ll look at a movie and its remake, or sometimes a movie and its sequel, to determine if Hollywood rehashed it for a reason or for a cash grab.
