Because that’s considered a live-action remake.

The distinction being made is between remakes and sequels/spinoffs.

The official Disney trailer on YouTube has 4.54 million views, 65k likes, and 25k comments. Judging by the first couple dozen “top rated” comments I read my guess is most comments are just making fun of some of the decisions… like not giving little people jobs because that would be offensive to little people, how no one would actually pick Zegler over Gadot as the fairest in the land, rooting for the poison apple, etc. One of them was positive at least, someone admired the bravery of Disney for leaving the comments open.

what distinction? That qualifier isn’t found in a number of those “sources.” The sourcing and methodology is pretty sparse.

I meant the distinction being drawn by the poster you responded to (perhaps I misunderstood what you were querying).

I just left the threads about the terrible, awful changes coming to MK and DHS to stop by here for some lighter, less stressful reading

I've probably watched it 5 or 6 times. Once to grab screen captures to photoshop Lord Farquaad's head onto Snow White as they have the same haircut. I have no intention of seeing it in theatres.

I remember that the first descriptions of Snow White before they decided to change the movie reminded me of Wish.I don't put much stock in trailer views at this point - the Wish trailer got tons of views and we all saw what that was worth in the end.

Now I’m reading that some people who viewed the trailer think Snow White has been turned into an ungrateful nag because she has the dwarfs cleaning during Whistle While You Work. 
People are going to give themselves a stroke trying to find ways to dislike this movie!

It compares favourably to Little Mermaids’ 108 million. Which did fine domestically and I think Snow White has better prospects than TLM Internationally.
It might be a moderate success.

The original source appears to have actually been Rachel (Disney), the second tweet got more play. You can see her tweet timing came before Hollywood Handle.

Number of viewings of trailers and teasers does not equate to film success or failure. Let's see the results after the first wave of film viewers provide their reviews.

No, certainly not. But it's been recently somewhat predictive of general interest and seems to be tracking against opening potential. In a very early fashion.
If no one tunes into a trailer, awareness and interest is terrible. If tons of people are tuning in, it means they are actually excited for the movie. It is one, of many, early metrics to keep an eye on. Seemingly correlated mostly to opening weekends and the long term potential of the movie really comes down to reviews/WOM. Primarily CinemaScore does well in that arena on a genre basis.

I honestly can’t tell if that’s a parody or actually the movie, please tell me that’s a parody!
