Original: She is THE MISTRESS OF ALL EVIL!!!

Original: They're more practical than their remake counterparts!

Original: Why the evilness in the remake?

Original: He has less screen time in the remake!

Original: He's loyal

Original: DUH! Because it's memorable!

Original: The plot is more straightforward.

Original: The scene speaks out for itself!

Original: More chemistry!

Original: The music says it all, thank you Tchaikovsky.

Favorite fairies : original
Favorite king stephan : original
Favorite prince phillip : original
Favorite crow : original
Favorite once upon a dream : original but i like Lana del rey version
Favorite plot : original
Favorite curse : original of course ! The curse is very important in the fairy tale . The curse is the same in All sleeping beauty's adaptations the original from perrault, brother grimm version , disney , books for kids , movies adaptations. Changing the curse of sleeping beauty is for me just like if we decide That ariel had to give the trident instead of her voice , cinderella lost Two glass slipper , aladdin only have Two wish and rapunzel doesnt live any longer in a tower but a house. In the movie maleficent, she doesnt want aurora to be dead anymore , they Forgot about the last fairy's gift and throw out of the Windows the mentions of " 100 years of slumber" and apparently they did that because they needed to show king stephan beg maleficent. So yeah the original i dont like how they treat the original fairy tale in maleficent.
Favorite prince and princess meeting : original in the animated their meeting is strange but still cute and romantic. In maleficent i just find the scene so embarassing.
Favorite spinning wheel scene : original more scary
Favorite dragon : the one in maleficent looks good but original !
Favorite true love kiss : original !

The original is superior in every aspect. I can't express enough how much I love it - the animation, the bad-ass characters, the music - and how much I hate the remake. Especially what they did to the fairies. And that they stole the transformation from Maleficent.

Right! This was not even a moderately close faithful adaptation. Phillip's kiss didn't work, the fairies are seen as incompetent and stupid, the king was turned evil, and so many more things that make me want to forget that this was even a live action remake. Cinderella, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast were handled much better and with more respect to the source material.

I haven't seen Aladdin, but so far the only remake I liked was Jungle Book and that was because they did something new which could have stood on its own without the unnecessary reference to the animated movie. It's not that they did something different whcih bothers me about Maleficent, it is that the sh... all over the original while doing it. The fairies are just insulting.
