Overview
Disney has been taking over the box office in recent years with it’s live-action remakes of animated classics. While several of these have practically been shot-for-shot remakes, Maleficent at least offered us something a little different: a look at the classic fairy tale Sleeping Beauty, from the perspective of the villain - the evil fairy godmother Maleficent as played by Angelina Jolie. That being said, the movie definitely raises a ton of questions. Like why is she named “Maleficent” which literally means evil? How come she has seemingly unstoppable magic powers, but can’t give herself new wings? Why does King Stefan send his newborn baby to live with strange pixies he literally just met instead of protecting her himself? And why does Aurora become queen?!
