Re: Bambi remake reels in Sarah Polley(!) as director.
It's just depressing that so many bright, talented indie darlings like Polley, Ryan Coogler, Barry Jenkins, Chloe Zhao and David Lowery get "rewarded" for their early successes by graduating to directing soulless, ugly remakes of classic Disney animated films, or getting their unique personalities crushed between the cogs of the MCU machinery.
It's hard to remember that Coogler made the acclaimed Fruitvale Station, considering he's made nothing but a Rocky spin-off and two Black Panther movies in the TEN YEARS since. Livin' the dream...!

Imagine Martin Scorsese making Taxi Driver in 1976, then his next two movies turned out to be Rocky II and Return Of The Jedi.

Will no doubt serve-up a heavy-handed "anti-gun" message.
