 End of the 70-year conquered “Pete’s Dragon” the heart of large and small children. Now the Disney classics undergoes a remake. However, with the stock that has not much to do.

 


 
 

The remake Carousel at Disney turns to the next round. After last been “The Jungle Book” as “The Jungle Book” had undergone a makeover, now also experiencing “Pete’s Dragon” his overhaul. For unprejudiced moviegoers certainly a lot of fun. Nostalgics who remember dreamily to the original, the smile will be years, however

Perhaps you have therefore in this country also decided not to take over the now ludicrous angestaubt looking movie titles from the 1970s. From the “Schmunzelmonster “is the version of the film of 2016 only” Elliot the dragon “. In English, however, there is no difference. Here carry both the original and the current recast the title “Pete’s Dragon” (Pete’s Dragon) – as if it were in two films, in principle, to the same thing. However, apart from the main character in a boys named Pete, who has a large, but basically love and invisible when the opportunity dragon as a friend, the two strips

have almost nothing in common. On vocals omitted

the original plays in the early 20th century, the remake in the present. In Original Pete is an orphan with the nasty adoptive family of Gogans, in the remake of the Young (Oakes Fegley) grows without any family alone with Elliot on the forest. Originally Dr. Terminus Elliot would prefer verwursten to pills, ointments and tinctures in the remake will hunter Gavin (Karl Urban) to the dragon to the leather. In Original Pete finds the lighthouse keeper Lampie and his daughter Nora custody, in the remake he gets to Försterin Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard) and her father, Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford). In the original Nora is looking for her lost at sea Man Paul, in the remake Grace lives with her friend Jack (Wes Bentley) happy. In the original is a lot of singing – in the remake not a bit

It was not least the music that characterized the original.. Accordingly, it was no coincidence that the role of Nora was then occupied with singer Helen Reddy. In Germany not too familiar, she was in the US at that time a superstar. The request to “Pete’s Dragon” sung song “Candle on the Water” was nominated for an Oscar. In the German version of the film Katja Ebstein Reddy’s vocals took over. While Mowgli and Baloo in “Jungle Book” remake were “The Bare Necessities” lilt to director David Lowery decided in the case of “Elliot”, to dispense entirely with such reminiscences.



to fondle a fur

the second thing that distinguished the “Schmunzelmonster” from 1977, was that it was at all a question of one of the first films in which “real” actor interacted with animated characters. At that time a small sensation, the technology of that time can not compete at all with the modern animation art course. 2016 Elliot no figure was zusammengepinselt the drawing board, but one that looks so real that you want to stroke her from cinema armchair prefer over the fluffy fur.

So has “Elliot the dragon” all in all successful action cinema Humour in contemporary garb, attended by the now 80-year-old Redford has certainly contributed willingly. Those who seek and love, will definitely come in 102 minutes at his expense. But this does not replace, even once with the original to rummage out the disc and reinserting. At the endearing charm of “Schmunzelmonsters” the remake comes not ran.

“Elliot, the Dragon” runs from August 25, 2016 in the German cinemas.
