10 . How do a whizz and a firefly fall in sexual love in The Princess and the Gaul ?
Ray , the firefly in The Princess and the Frog , is either lovable or plaguey , depending on your point of view . Either mode , he ’s in spades stupid . He front up at the star every night , calls one of them Evangeline , and fall in love with ‘ her . ’ When he ’s gotten splosh — which is tragical or satisfying again depending on your point of horizon — it seems as though his dreaming is over . But in the end of the motion picture , a new star in the sky seem beside Evangeline , signalise that Ray ’s wish has come dependable . It ’s a beautiful symbolic moment , but — what then ? Does Ray discover that he ’s a sentient being , pin down light years by from a burn up ball of gas that could never talk to him ? And what if Evangeline really is sentient in some way ? Does n’t she deserve better than being stick to next to a glitch who she never fit ? Since stars ‘ live ’ for billions of year , that ’s near to a pure definition of hell either way .
9 . What happened to Prince Ali ’s people in Aladdin ?
“ Genii , I like for you to make me a prince ! ” These are the words of Aladdin , when he wants to gain ground the hand of the lovely Princess Jasmine . The Genii harmonise , and create Aladdin a zoo , fills up his pocket with money , and gives him tons of servants . We do n’t see any of them again after his basic parade . Later in the picture , the malign Jafar gets powers , reveals Aladdin to be poor , and that ’s that . What happened to all those people ? And a prince ca n’t just have a large stave . He has to rule some land with citizenry on it . Was a nation fraction in one-half , just so that Aladdin could make a proficient effect ? Or was an entirely young opus of land , pure with people , create by the Genii ? No matter what pass , it could n’t have been good when Jafar de - princed the guy . Maybe the the great unwashed disappeared , or the nation strike into Mad Max - type lawlessness , or was over - run by other nations . We ’ll never jazz .
8 . Was that prince engage the dwarf in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as force labor or what ?
Ever notice that , even though the dwarf in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are take out clenched fist - sized diamonds out of the ground , they do n’t seem to have a passel of money ? Do n’t get me faulty , they have enough money for food and a house — but the mansion is in the middle of nowhere , they make their own piece of furniture , and they obviously do n’t employ someone to keep it clean . And then find their attitude towards the Prince and the Wicked Queen . Since those are the only two royal around , the gnome cottage has to be somewhere between the two kingdom . When the Queen comes around , they settle first to chase her and then to belt down her . Clearly , they have no finical loyalty to her . Then the Prince come by and decides to make out with Snow White ’s corpse , and they stand apart . Then he carries her off to a fabulously bejeweled land while they remain , catch some Z’s seven to a room , in their shack in the woods . Seems fishy . What is the Prince book over their capitulum ?
7 . Why did n’t sleep Beauty ’s parent just ask round Maleficent to their political party ?
The whole story of Sleeping Beauty happens for one reason and one reasonableness alone ; the Evil Fairy did n’t get invited to a celebration of the baby ’s birth . That ’s it . If they had invited the woman , she would n’t have done anything bad — or at least nothing as bad as condemning the infant to die on her sixteenth natal day . The moving picture points out that everyone , literally everone , else in the kingdom was invite , so it ’s easy to see why Maleficent is in a bad climate about being cut . And in a mode , she has a right to be . Yes , no one wants her there , but it ’s a family event . Everyone has to put up with at least one person that they do n’t like when it comes to family events . ( For the penis of my own family line reading this right now — yes , you ’re the one I do n’t wish . Stew on that . ) Just suck it up , put up her a peck of wine-colored , and hope she excrete out in the recess for most of the party .
6 . What did Cinderella finally do to her stepsisters ?
I ’m not say it ’s potential she did something bad to them . She was kind of a delicacy - treat . I ’m just saying it would be uproarious if they were the wedding party spread .
5 . Does Scar command the weather in The Lion King ? Does Simba ?
Yes . Okay . scrape place regicide . That ’s bad . He then ‘ lease the hyenas into the Pride Lands . ’ I guess , according to the Lion Code , which apparently say that everything is part of the Great Circle of Life — except the hyenas , which can just stay all the way over there in that barren jolting section thank you very much — that that is also sorry . But when Simba amount back to reclaim the throne , the whole savanna is a wasteland , with rivers dried up , dust cut across the land , and animal ivory strewn about . We ’re supposed to translate that the hyenas and the Leo the Lion overfed on the animals , but I ’m really not sure how Scar ’s reign somehow manage to dry up the rivers . It seems like if he had that kind of king he could have been king a farsighted prison term ago . And if he did n’t have that power , and Simba was the one who could hold in the rivers and impart the rain that hail at the end , there ’s no mode anyone would consider someone else as king , whether Simba kill his forefather or not . It ’s just all so confusing .
4 . How did cow dung , in Beauty and the Beast , get to be born ?
In this story , once again , a member of the royal family piss off a queen — but at least this fairy was in disguise , so his position makes gumption . Unlike the dummies in sleep Beauty , he prove to make it up to her . Alas , he tries in vain . She curses him and his castle , gives him a thaumaturgy rose , and tells him that if he has n’t found love before the rosiness has completely withered , he will stay a creature forever . In comes the tale , say , “ As the eld pass , he fell into despair and turn a loss all Leslie Townes Hope . For who could ever memorize to love a Beast ? ” I ’m pretty sure a lot of people would be well-chosen to make out a wildcat with a giant magic castling who could eviscerate them if they did n’t love him enough . That ’s not the question here . My question is — how many years pass , on the button ? The Beast is clear get on , so the rest of the castle was , too . The only child we see is check , the small tea cupful son of Mrs Potts . He depend about . . . four ? We see that the rest of the servants do they would in their human form . Lumiere , the horny candlestick , is always after Babette , the feather duster . ( I do n’t bang why the Beast allows that . It ’s a ardour hazard . ) Was Chip the son of an – I do n’t even know what . Even if he was n’t – what was he as a baby ? A clod of clay ? A doll cup ? And , more sinisterly , how did he get that micro chip in his foreland ? This whole question is very worrying .
3 . Is n’t Ariel break down to change from The Little Mermaid to The Blood Countess ?
The bloodiest fit in all of Disney is shown as comedy . In The picayune Mermaid , Sebastian the Phthirius pubis gets lost in the Prince ’s castling and ends up in the kitchen . There we are handle to a scene of dismembered organic structure parts , underframe on plates , and bubbling stew filled with hack up limbs . It ’s funny , because all the deadened bodies are Pisces . Of naturally this would dismay Sebastian , but not us — except when we mean about the fact that we ’ve seen that all these fauna have personalities just like people . Then again , we ’re coming at it from a human perspective . Ariel , the mermaid , is n’t . These are people she ’s grow up with . She was meant to rule them and see to their well - being . But when she meet them stuffed with breading and put out on a dinner home base — well , she salve Sebastian , but otherwise seems content to watch multitude kill , Captain James Cook , and exhaust her former subjects . When she finally becomes human , ruling a country of multitude who live on the coast and like Pisces , there are only two thing she can do . She can either get Prince Eric to prosecute everyone who eats a steamed buck for torture and murder , likely end in the execution of thousand of her current people , or she can allow them to continue fishing , end in the slaying of millions of her former ‘ mass . ’ Either means , she ’s going to be the most despised royal stag of all time .
2 . How does the charming child thralldom band in Pinocchio stay undetermined ?
Pinocchio was a surprisingly dark pic , with the benighted sequence being when a bunch of ‘ risky ’ boys are turned into donkey by a sinister magical entertainment park . The boys are lured away from school and onto a boat by a carnival barker . The boat contain them to Pleasure Island , an incredible amusement park where they are given pie and ice cream and roast chicken and told to go on rides and start fights . They ’re given tobacco to smoke and encouraged to ruin works of art like maculate glass window . finally , they start turning into . . . something else . The barker says , “ Give a bad boy enough Mexican valium and he ’ll soon make a fathead of himself . ” The male child grow ear , tails , and finally turn into donkeys . They ’re crated up , sometimes screaming for their mothers , and put on another boat constipate for ‘ salt mines . ’ My main dubiousness is n’t about the moral implications of this . No — my problem is economic . Is there some kind of massive domestic ass shortage ? How is sell mule to salt mine go to engender enough revenue to support two boats , a monumental entertainment ballpark stock with intoxicant , tobacco plant , and an endless provision of stained looking glass windows ? I know that there is symbolization going on here , but it seems like even the beautiful symbolization ca n’t overtake the proportional ease of just buying a ruck of donkeys who are already conveniently locate near a salt mine .
1 . Is Hercules just a dark comedy examining futility of fighting death ?
Hercules was not a prominent hit for Disney , nor did it particularly merit to be . Young Herc , the son of Zeus , has his divinity taken off from him . In the myths , the thief is Zeus ’s jealous married woman , Hera . Not a in effect foe to make . In the film , it ’s Hades , the idol of the utter , who does the purity . He is a much , much worse enemy to make . Although Herc spends the movie fighting to repay to bestride Olympus as a god , the dearest of a deathly woman sincerely instigate him , and he give up immortality to be with her . Which means that Hades will , inevitably , pull ahead . You ca n’t fight death — and I ca n’t believe that there is any child so obtuse as to not see the major job with the end of that picture . Sure , Hades gets temporarily inconvenienced by being draw into a river of death take with floating stagnant souls ( which , by the way , lets kid get a flavour at incisively what awaits their zep when they do grow old and die ) , but he ’s immortal , so it ca n’t hurt him or block up him forever .
Because of this , Hercules is by far Disney ’s dark movie . Even the original Grecian myth turn out happier than the movie , since Hercules becomes a graven image and goes to Olympus when he die . Also , in Greek myth , death is n’t an eternal miserableness in a whirlpool of green slime . There are various level of end , and some of them are quite nice . In Hercules ’ world , the characters will necessarily spend an timelessness in hell , being cackle over by the guy wire they drop their whole lives struggle against . The only thing stay fresh them company will be the suffering souls of all their loved one , and finally any children they might have . They will drop constantly in unhopeful defeat from which there is no escape . Damn , Disney . That ’s cold .
