The Lion King is almost certainly a ripoff of Kimba the White Lion.
That doesn't make it any less of a good movie, from when Disney actually cared about quality.
By the way, I'm three Rebuild movies down. One to go. I don't see why you warned me about them so harshly--I agree they're not perfect, what with Mari not getting enough character development to build upon her Blood Knight foundation, and so far I do like the actual series better, but so far, I don't see why you didn't want me to see them.
Again, have not been able to see movie 4 yet. Will have time on Monday--it's over an hour longer than 3.33 was!
I don't think taking inspiration from or subverting something makes either less of a good movie, its just how most Lefties think.
And understanding why Rebuild is terrible requires to both know Anno and his intentions behind it, as well as being a big enough fan of the original prior to seeing them. Because he openly despises anyone who likes the series, admits to enjoying ruining things for them, and only did Rebuild begrudgingly because no one cared about any other work he did and he knew he could fuck with fans once again.
He literally is Rian Johnson but Japanese.
I'm not going to tell you you're wrong for liking them, because they are pretty solid movies in a vaccuum I suppose. But there is a reason why most fans prior to their release despise them. Especially with the huge wait time between many of them (during which Anno would continue mocking people about their opinions on them).
A direct remake by the original creator versus a parody that barely resembles the original because of a cheap IP is the main reason it has the name. Very comparable, especially in light of me giving you a better comparison.
If that's what you took from what I said though, then it makes a lot of sense why you enjoy the movies.
But I'm glad you liked them. We all have our low bar slop.

I should hate Starship Troopers because Verhoeven. Got it.
