Snow White and the Huntsman

The Huntsman: Winter’s War movie review: snow what?

It’s a prequel and a sequel! It’s got girl powerrr and lady-hating! It’s a mashup of Lord of the Rings and Frozen! It’s all these things, and less.

question of the day: What fairy tales are begging for a fresh new retelling?

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters is already on its way. Anyone want to see Jack and the Beanstalk done up Lord of the Rings style? Or perhaps a feminist twist on Cinderella? And who would you cast in your fairy tale?

Would really really like for you to feel the grand, sweeping, larger-than-life mythos, and borrows willy-nilly from Peter Jackson and Guillermo Del Toro to try to do so.
