According to Jack Zipes, Disney has ruined the fairytale in his essay, "Breaking the Spell." Through the use of technology and its advances Disney has recreated many of the classic fairytales into animated motion pictures. In doing so, he is taking away from people's imaginations. The original fairytales are being transformed into softer stories that are more geared toward children and that people can now relate to. He has made them comical and more realistic.
I agree with Zipes. Yes, Disney has made them more geared for children, but you are losing a lot but making them animated films. There is a beauty about reading something and imagining your own version of that story. When you watch something now, it's going to change you perspective of the tale entirely and one might not even be interested in reading the original anymore.
