The Lilo & Stitch live-action remake has clearly struck a chord with the audience. The movie has been a massive blockbuster hit and, while many are praising the movie for having the same powerful emotional punch as the original, there have been some criticisms of the way the remake has changed the story.

“It’s all based on Chris Sanders’ original artistic style [who directed the animated original with Dean DeBlois and returns to voice Stitch],” said Fleischer Camp, who comes from a drawing and painting background. “That movie, I think more than any Disney movie, is a representation of one artist’s lens on the universe.”

The film was originally aimed for Disney+. But it was rerouted to a theatrical release and is on a pace for at least $950 million in ticket sales.
