Can somebody explain to me why Disney is determined to destroy their legacy with a bunch of live action remakes?

I have a cousin who refuses to watch anything animated because "that's for kids". He is the kind of person that they make some of these for. He is incorrect. Hopefully they will learn that eventually.
Are there box office smashes anymore? Every time I drive by my local Silver City Cinema the parking lot looks bare and it was always full prior to covid. I think streaming won the battle mostly because theatres (a formerly inexpensive venue for the masses) priced themselves out of the game.
To soon for a live action re make. Kids are still obsessively watching the original still.
I don't think it's had the same cultural impact as other dismey kids stuff like frozen. Kids like it but they aren't obsessed in the same way. I'm still more likely to see kids in frozen costumes than any other.
Does it still have the Jemaine Clement song Shiny? Because I'll see thaaaat.
It does.
Sweet I'm in, thanks.
