In Disney's new live-action remake, "Lilo & Stitch" brings its beloved furry alien back to the big screen for a more earnest, less rambunctious tale.

When co-writers/directors Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders first brought Stitch into this world, it was an especially experimental time for the company following the much beloved Disney Renaissance. Movies like The Emperor’s New Groove, Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet also came out during this more eccentric and adventure-filled era.

The live-action remake, featuring a mayhem-causing alien, is a merchandising powerhouse.

The live-action Lilo & Stitch movie hits theaters this weekend, but it's already received a rating on Rotten Tomatoes
