Lilo & Stitch | Final Trailer | In Theaters May 23 (4K)

Summer blockbuster season is kicking off, and Disney looks set to dominate Memorial Day weekend with its highly anticipated live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch, following its disastrous spring release of Snow White. Snow White's controversies weighed it down, but bad reviews only snowballed into a major box office flop for Disney. However, this is hardly representative of the financial state of Disney's entire live-action remake line, when they have seen some major box office hits in this regard, and look set to bounce back with Lilo & Stitch.

Lilo & Stitch has the benefit of a summer release date, as well as being fundamentally different from the princess classics that Disney has been frequently re-releasing in the last few years. Lilo & Stitch's heartwarming quirkiness is somewhat underrated when it typically flies below Disney's biggest animated titles, but with it being front and center this Memorial Day, that factor is likely to make it a huge success. Things might have looked bleak for Disney's upcoming live-action remakes after Snow White, but Lilo & Stitch is easily going to surpass it.
