WWTD 054 - Pete's Dragon: Passamapawnee

What happens when you mix together a cartoon dragon; a ginger child actor who can't sing; a seemingly endless soundtrack of largely mediocre songs; a stable of legendary performers including Mickey Rooney, Jim Dale, Helen Reddy, and more; and a plot brimming with family friendly subjects like slavery, child abuse, post-traumatic stress, and severe alcoholism? If you're Vicky, that adds up to a delightful childhood classic filled with charm and nostalgia. If you're Nolan or Jill, it adds up to one of the worst Disney movies we've had to sit through yet. It's another episode of a house divided on We Want The D, as our hosts grill each other to fully understand our differing opinions, as well as try to figure out how it's possible that Disney is adding Pete's Dragon to its list of live action remakes this year, when it seems like they've tried their hardest to ignore the original's existence.
