1. If there is a remake now, the episode in which the Little Mermaid becomes a human will almost certainly add some small meat jokes. So I always feel that the remakes of the classics are so bad and have no original charm at all; the fact is that the environment that made the classics the classics no longer exists today, and the remakes are only possible after a substantial adaptation in line with contemporary popular texts. It's good-looking. The ideal kind of remake that can't change the original too much and satisfy the current audience does not exist.
2. The little mermaid said to her father who insisted that humans are evil: I just don't believe that a civilization that can make these wonderful things can be evil! (I just don't see how a world that makes such wonderful things could be bad!)
In this fairy tale, the opposition between the backward but innocent mermaid civilization and the advanced and complex human civilization contains complex and even contradictory attitudes towards the development of human industry. On the one hand, the world of mermaids is portrayed as beautiful and happy, and the relationship between people (fish and fish) is simple and pure, which is the opposite of the "evil" human civilization in the film; He was deeply attracted by the prosperity of civilization, and finally became human at the cost of losing his voice. This seems to be an allegorical expression of human beings who are obsessed with the development of more and more sophisticated industries or technologies, but at the same time they are vigilant about them, and cannot restrain their memory of the past innocence.
