Sebastian and Flounder's live-action counterparts in The Little Mermaid look bizarre - a sign that Disney's talking animals just aren't working.
The Little Mermaid remake made Sebastian and Flounder look realistic, and the result is a little unsettling. This seems to be the risk of Disney's live-action adaptations, especially when talking animals are involved. Past movies have been criticized for the same thing since there is something offputting about seeing such realistic-looking animals animated to speak.
Sebastian & Flounder’s Realistic Design Is Unsettling, But It Couldn’t Have Been Better Talking animals are nothing new in the world of Disney, but when the The Little Mermaid trailer showed a hyper-realistic crab and flatfish talking, it had an almost uncanny valley effect. This led to an onslaught of social media posts criticizing the House of Mouse for ruining Sebastian and Flounder.
