One of our favorite entertainment writers, Chris Agar from ScreenRant.com brings it so perfectly to the point: The Aladdin remake became a surprise box office smash hit, but how exactly did that happen? In addition to banking on their lucrative subsidiaries like Marvel and Lucasfilm, Disney’s launched a very successful enterprise in recent years by remaking their animated classics as live-action films. While there was a live-action 101 Dalmations back in 1996, this sub-franchise didn’t truly take form until Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland hit the scene in 2010. Despite mixed reviews, that film grossed over $1 billion worldwide, paving the way for more adaptations.
