Who said the original is always better?

The Big Picture Disney has been on a long stretch of remaking their animated movies. As the live-action The Little Mermaid approaches, fans have wondered what will be different from the 1989 classic. With it confirmed that some music has been reworked to better fit modern standards, it's clear the remake won't be exactly the same, which worries some fans. But it's easy to forget that the animated The Little Mermaid isn't the original story.

Disney Made Significant Changes for 'The Little Mermaid' Not all the things Disney changed from the original story were with the goal of making the story less dark. They took out characters and added new ones in. In the fairytale, there's no Flounder or Sebastian . Instead, the mermaid's friends are her older sisters. And her designated caretaker is her grandmother.

One of the most recognizable parts of the story, no matter the version, is the mermaid giving up her voice to get legs. In The Little Mermaid, Ursula uses magic to reach into Ariel's throat and extract it. But the fairytale takes a different route. For payment, the sea witch cuts out the mermaid's tongue, leaving her unable to speak. The slight change makes for a much messier story. But the poor mermaid still has problems to face.
