Why not? I think the messages of the movie are pretty evergreen and just as relevant today as 1999 (which wasn’t that different).

Damn, this movie used to be available on YouTube, looks like it’s been taken down.

Most anything can be newsworthy in 2025. Doesn’t take much effort to publish a blurb like this.

Not in this case. Lilo and Stitch is only 23 years old, the copyright isn’t close to expiring.

The goal is to make a lot of money, because people will go see these movies. All these Disney live action remakes have made a ton of money.
