Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. David Lowery's Pete's Dragon remake has been looking mighty different from the original song and dance Disney live action/cartoon hybrid joint and that's not a bad thing. I mean, I'd still murder a hobo to see Robert Redford sing I Swear I Saw A Dragon, but I'm also glad that my childhood will remain unmolested by a weaker shot by shot reboot.
Case in point, the radically different title character. This is not your daddy's Elliott... And by your daddy, I guess I mean me because Pete's Dragon was the first thing I saw in a theater and goddamnit I'm old now. Are you happy?!?
EW got the debut (if you couldn't tell by the giant watermark). What do you guys think of the redesign?
