The Little Mermaid (2023)

After an unexpectedly long hiatus, we are back with a new episode in which the randomizer goes all the way back to 2023, to one of the seemingly hundreds of times Disney has taken one of their beloved awe-inspiring unforgettable animated masterpieces and reimagined it as a tolerated "meh"-inspiring live-action blockbuster that costs more than the GDP of most countries and completely leaves your memory before you even find your car in the parking lot. This time, they got around to remaking the film that changed animation forever, the era-defining fairy tale classic that revitalized the company and kicked off the Disney Renaissance. So naturally, for the remake they slathered everything in exceptionally ugly CGI, hired the "My Vag" lady to imitate 70s porn music (twice!) and got an oceanload of semi-deserved free publicity by angering the worst people on the internet when they dared to cast a (gasp!) b-b-b-b-b-b-BLACK woman as the titular fish-assed protagonist. Join Tony Goldmark, Kalani Mitchell, Kit Quinn and Luke Ski as they steal the voice of THE LITTLE MERMAID (2023)!
