Suggested by andymayer
I just saw the new Lilo & Stitch remake and REALLY thought it would have been better if it had Captain Gantu and Jumba would have the Russian-like accent. The story would still go as follows. Somewhere in space, an alien scientist named Dr Jumba Jookiba stands trial for "illegal genetic experimentation." Jumba is imprisoned and Experiment 626 is exiled, but the latter escapes by stealing a police cruiser and doing a hyper jump. Jumba, with "Earth expert" Wendell Pleakley supervising him, is sent to capture 626 in exchange for freedom. On the island of Kauai, a little girl named Lilo Pelekai always gets herself in trouble due to her eccentricities. Her older sister Nani is her legal guardian after their parents died. Unfortunately, Nani is failing to pay bills and Social Services is threatening to take Lilo away if nothing is done about it. Lilo sees a "falling star" and wishes for a friend. Lilo and Nani go to the animal shelter to get a dog and Lilo chooses the odd-looking blue one and names him "Stitch." Stitch agrees to be her dog, simply to avoid being captured by Jumba and Pleakley. Everywhere they go, Stitch causes mischief and destruction and it doesn't make anything better for Lilo and Nani. Unlike in the remake, Jumba will not be the main antagonist, it would be Gantu! And there will be a spaceship chase throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
