After all that waiting here's the results of the first Old vs New survey, Sleeping Beauty vs Maleficent! I think this one is the only one where pretty much everyone answered the same thing and I'm not really surprised door the results for this one. The results are from the antwoorden of users and my own answers.
O = Original

O and R = Original and Remake
Favorite Aurora
O 7
R 1
I didn't get much of an explaination as to why most people preferred to the original over the remake, the only explainations I got was one person zei they thought that Elle Fanning's acting was stiff for some of the movie and another person saying the orginal was superior in ever aspect. For this one I can only assume it's because for some people u can't beat the original, people grew up with the original Aurora and fell in love with her and Elle Fanning's portrayal wasn't terrible but, again, can't beat the original.
Favorite Maleficent
O 8
R
Okay this one is almost a no brainer. Angelina Jolie was great as Maleficent and Maleficent herself in the remake wasn't awful, but the reason people prefer the original is because Maleficent is supposed to be the Mistress of All Evil (two people actually zei this), we grew up seeing her be evil and doing evil deeds and mock her enemies. In the remake she was completely changed, instead of being the villain we all grew up to know and love she's a troubled person who raises the daughter of the man who wronged her. That story isn't bad, to a lot of people it just doesn't fit the Maleficent image.
Favorite Good Fairies
O 8
R
Once again, no brainer. The original Good Fairies were the embodiment of good. They were sweet, gentle, kind, and lovable and while they did argue they never actually hit each other of acted immature in their arguments. When u look at the original fairies u knew they loved each other. The remake fairies were just terrible characters and terrible people in general. They were incredibly negligent and they had no tact whatsoever. And any time we see them on screen they act like a hateful version of the 3 Stooges where they constantly fight but it's not funny and u don't really believe they like being together.
Favorite King Stefan
O 8
R
So much no brainers in this article. A few users disliked how evil he was in the remake and one user questioned why they even made him evil in the first place. Him being evil was such an unnecessary change. If the writers really wanted him to have done Maleficent wrong they could have done it without making him as evil as they did. King Stefan still could have been the good guy and he and Maleficent could have just been enemies and neither of them could be in the right of wrong because they each believed that whatever they were doing was right. And in the original even though we don't see King Stefan and Aurora interact that much it's made clear plenty of times that he loves her and cares about her but then remake King Stefan barely says any words to Aurora and is never kind to her at all because he's driven himself insane with fear and paranoia.
Favorite Prince Phillip
O 8
R
Here's some issues users had with Maleficent's Prince Phillip; he didn't have that much screen time and he didn't actually get to save Aurora in the remake. The original Prince Phillip escaped Maleficent's castle, rode through a uithangbord of thorns, fought and killed Maleficent in dragon form, and saved Aurora from death-like sleep. In Maleficent he was just sort of...there. He doesn't do much except meet Aurora, get dragged to the castle, and then try and fail to wake up Aurora.
Favorite Crow
O 8
R
Diablo was Maleficent's pet and confidant, he was the only one she trusted to help her get the job done. Diaval was a kraai Maleficent saved from getting beaten to death and had sworn to serve her in return. Diaval, like Maleficent, wasn't a bad character but like Maleficent and Aurora, u can't beat the original. It didn't seem like there was a real reason to have Diaval human for some parts of the movie except to give Maleficent someone to talk to, but she could have just talked to her kraai like she did in the original and that would have been good enough. Maleficent was alone for a reason, she didn't need to make her pet human for companionship, Diablo was just fine in his kraai form.
Favorite Once Upon a Dream
O 7
R 1
Both versions of Once Upon a Dream were good but people preferred the original because, as one person put it, "duh, because it's memorable" and possibly because some people don't like how creepy the Lana Del straal, ray version was.
Favorite Plot
O 8
R
The plot for Sleeping Beauty was meer straightforward while the plot for Maleficent had a few plot holes and was slightly boring. As a standalone film Maleficent could have been an amazing movie if some of the plot holes were fixed, the characters better, and if Maleficent and Stefan's relationship was brought meer than just a few times at the beginning. door the end of the movie it's kinda easy to forget that they were supposed to be vrienden turned enemies
Favorite Curse
O 8
R
The curse in Sleeping Beauty was done for the sake of being evil (and possibly pettiness) while in Maleficent it's done in revenge for what Stefan did to Maleficent. The original curse was to just kill the princess but then Merryweather's gift saved her but then the new curse was changed to have her be in a "sleep like death" and to be only saved door true love's kiss, that last part added in a way for her to taunt Stefan because she believed there was no such thing. We don't even get to see the third gift in Maleficent.
Favorite Prince and Princess meeting
O 8
R
Without the musical number in Maleficent Aurora and Phillip's meeting there's not as much romance of chemistry. One user even thought that their meeting was embarassing. In Sleeping Beauty even though we don't see them having a real conversation there was still something there, he sings to her and dances with her, we wanted them to fall in love and be together. In Maleficent they just talk for a little while and that was it.
Favorite Spinning Wheel scene
O 8
R
In Sleeping Beauty Aurora is put under a trance to follow a floating green orb of light that softly calls her name, is slowly led up some stairs to a room with a spinning wheel, and is ordered to prick her finger while the good fairies desperately call out to her and tell her not to touch anything. In Maleficent Aurora is put under a trance and wanders aimlessly until she ends up in the room with the burnt spinning wheels, one of which magically puts itself back together and she then pricks her finger and goes to sleep and we're cutting back and forth with Maleficent racing to the kasteel on Diaval with a passed out prince behind her on his own horse. This scene in Maleficent is okay door comparison, Sleeping Beauty's version has meer build up, is meer intense, and is "more scary".
favoriete Dragon
O 8
R
Many fans were disappointed that Maleficent didn't get to turn into a dragon in the remake. Her transformation in Sleeping Beauty was one of the first villain transformations and is iconic even to this dag and Maleficent didn't get to keep it in the remake. Diaval was an impressive looking dragon, but now fans have to wonder how Maleficent would have looked.
favoriete True Love's Kiss
O 8
R
I honestly thought change in the remake was cute because I kinda like to think that it shows that u can count on family to save u too. But here's some problems with the true love's kiss in the remake; Frozen had just done this and even though this probably can't really count as a ripoff since Maleficent was probably done before Frozen came out, it did feel like a cheap copy and the other issue is door having Phillip's kiss not work it feels like the writers were trying to tell the audience, "There's no way this kiss could ever work because they barely knew each other!" But we all grew up watching Phillip risk his life to save Aurora and then kiss her awake, even though we don't see them together that much he still fought hard to save her in the end despite only knowing her for a musical number. To quote Anna from Frozen, "It's TRUE LOVE!!"
