They also changed David from a cool surfer dude, to a nervous wreck, and Cobra Bubbles from an imposing and intimidating MIB with a history with the galactic president, to just some random MIB that doesn't seem to understand anything that's happening.
At least Bronze Age Disney (The Black Cauldron, Pete’s Dragon, and The Rescuers era) were original. People can hate on Black Cauldron all they want, but it had a style.
These remakes are colorless and lifeless, and excise the original themes and messages of the originals.
