It feels like there have already been so many takes on Sleeping Beauty, and that might just be because this porn-y one shows up on Netflix sometimes, but even so I think I can speak for most of us when I say: ENOUGH! (Also it’s probably definitely just because I’m thinking of Snow White.) (Is there even a difference?) (NAME ONE THING THAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT THEM.) Anyway, here is a new stupid take coming to a theater near snooze, from The Hollywood Reporter:

With Disney in production on the Angelina Jolie starrer Maleficent, producer Neal Moritz is moving forward with a comedy take on the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale that turns the slumbering sweetie into a pesky stalker.

The 21 Jump Street producer is developing a modern-day retelling that finds the male protagonist accidently awakening Sleeping Beauty and finding that he can’t get rid of the lovestruck heroine.

RUH-ROH! What a laugh-a-minute twist, showing both that you have to be careful what you wish for and also that girls drool and boys rule, and also that Emma Stone might quickly turn too old for this role so we HAVE TO MOVE FAST! So far the movie has no writers and no name, just this sparkling premise, and we can at least help them out in one of those two areas. My suggestions:

  • Sleeping Dummy: A Moden Day Scarie Tale
  • Why’d I Haveta Wake THIS One?
  • Bros Before Sleepy Hoes, Unless…
  • Oh Brother!
  • Jack and the Sleep Stalk(er)

Those are definitely good, but I think they need your help, too!!! Help them!! Help them come up with a name!!!!!

  1. he should go “edgier”

    • she’s supposed to wake up from true loves kiss, not “OMG, MY WATER JUST BROKE… WAIT… AM I KNOCKED UP? OH WTF!!!!”

      • Fun Fact: in the original tale, she woke up not at love’s first kiss, but at love’s first baby-accientally-sucking-splinter-out-while-looking-for-food-ahahaha-OH-FUCK-WHAT. Fairy Tales! They’re fucked up!

        • I would love to see fairy tales adapted STRAIGHT UP as they are from the original Grimm, Straparola, Basile, or Perrault tales. Just every bit of implied incest, mutilation, and general nastiness that was all up in those stories.

  22. Conversation of the producer pitching it to Disney:

    Moritz: “Virtually 100% of your paying audience is young girls, right?”
    -Disney Exec: “Correct”
    Moritz: “OK, so what if we change the premise of Sleeping Beauty so girls don’t like it, and boys won’t go see it anyway?”
    -Disney Exec: “Awesome, here’s your advance!”

  25. Well…Age and wealth ain’t nothing but a number for these loved-up A-Listers. My BF and I both think so! He is almost 10 years older than I. We met via ~~–Agelover .COM~~ a nice place for younger women and older men, or older women and younger men, to interact with each other! Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends :)

  26. I’m not so they are “stock” characters so much as archetypal characters. Disney understood well that complicated characters could be confusing to a child, and he wanted his audience to feel good about watching his flicks.
