Lea Salonga sang Let It Go way better than Idina Menzel, the former has the voice!

Even though it's been overhyped I still love Frozen. I think it's a good movie, I mean it was good enough for me to see in theaters 3 times and on dvd several more, and I really like the characters. I thought Hans would have been a good surprise villain if it didn't feel like something that was just thrown in there, I think Olaf is really funny, I love Elsa and Anna, and I love the songs. I feel like if Disney didn't shove Elsa, Let it Go, and Frozen in everyone's faces then maybe there wouldn't be so much hate for it

I don't see what bothers people about the line "you can't marry a man you just met" and accuse it as the way how Disney mocking classic princesses in subtle way. I don't see it as an insult, I don't think it's offensive, and in real life, sure that quote works. You cannot marry someone without getting know about him/her first.

I can't listen to the song Goodbye May Seem Forever from Fox and the Hound without crying. Not only is the song itself really sad, it's so hard watching Widow give up Tod after raising him since he was a baby. It also has me thinking about how eventually my cat (who I have had for 12 years and still see as my baby) will be gone. I'm tearing up a bit right now just making this confession about that song lol :P

I dont understand why people think mulan and aurora would not be friends. They are not opposite.They both are sweet , gentle , they love their families and make sacrifice in their movies. I think theses two could be friends.

I honestly don't understand the hype for Nightmare Before Christmas. I know the stop motion is great to watch and the soundtrack is amazing but other than that the movie just seemed kinda boring. I can only name a few scenes I actually enjoyed watching and pretty much all of them were the musical numbers

The race issue in this fandom drives me nuts. I fucking hate the entitled, fragile white fans always discouraging any comment regarding representation and casually just ignore it. I've seen white members of the fandom complain how they're unhappy because Disney doesn't portray Irish culture correctly, but they'll brush off Black Panther and Coco, genuine attempts at representation, by saying they're "forced pandering". Yet at the same time they loove the whitewashed, racist characters such as Honey Lemon and all the Marvel characters, and the Star Wars characters. So minorities are only good as long as they're space aliens or they can resemble white people, as further away from their cultural identity as possible. *rolls eyes*

Honey Lemon is not whitewashed. She is a white Latina. White Latinas exist.

I think it's strange when people judging Aurora (and somehow the other classics) to have no personality when Snow and Cinderella's Princes are the same-even more than the princesses, and nobody ever bothered with that.

I absolutely adore the movie Hocus Pocus. It's my favorite Halloween movie, I love I Put a Spell on You, I watch the movie every year, and i actually named my cat after Binx

I was initially skeptical of the Princess and the Frog upon revisiting my childhood of Disney 9 years ago when the movie came to Malaysia, I thought that it was going to flop. But as it turns out, it's one of my favourite Disney Princess films ever.

I somewhat like the movie Moana, but overall, I don't think it's great. Here are my main critiques:
- Moana herself feels a little too perfect. She has many "good" qualities like being action-prone, quick-thinking, but is almost never afraid or uncertain. That's a little impossible for me to believe, given the journey she's going on.
- The one mistake Moana makes (trying to get Maui closer to Te Fiti) is contrived. Her not heeding Maui's warning isn't a result of a recurring character flaw, nor does she apologize to him for not listening.
- Chief Tui's reason for preventing going past the reef is also contrived.
- We don't get to know the people of Moana's island that well. If we had, it would have made the "saving her people" part of the story feel more urgent.
- Maui's sudden return at the end could have felt more natural if there was a scene with just him contemplating about going back.
- The encounter with the kakamora doesn't further much of anything.
- Yes, Disney's self-jabs and one modern reference do take me out of the experience.

I have positive things to say too, but this thread IS unpopular opinions, so I'm sharing just my critiques.

The whole shipping thing of Elsa and Jack Frost is absolutely ridiculous! Just because they have ice powers, their characteristics are actually the opposite.

A Princess and the Frog live action remake would be fab, with Brandy as Tiana.

while I love the live action version of The Jungle Book, I don't really like some of the decisions made cast-wise. Lupita Nyong'o as Raksha was amazing, of course, and I loved Ben Kignsley as Bageera and Idris Elba was an awesome Shere Khan but Bill Murray as Baloo and Christopher Walkin as King Louie? No. Just, no.

I think Belle and Ariel are not as different as many people say. I'd say Belle and Ariel are more similiar than Belle and Tiana. Belle is not as cautious and mature as many people say( yes, less carefree that Ariel but
not much less carefree). I'd say that all Renessaince DPs are somewhat similiar to each other. Jasmine and Mulan are the most dissimiliar pair amongst Renessaince DPs but they still have a bit in common.

I just saw the teaser trailer to the Aladdin remake, and I've gotta be honest about this-I don't know about Will Smith playing the genie. I just started watching The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air afew weeks ago, and I just don't know about him playing such an iconic character.

Not really sure if this is an unpopular opinion on here or not, but I really enjoy most of the live action remakes Disney has been doing. They're a fun way to revisit the classic films of my childhood in a new light. They won't ever replace the animated versions for me, but it's amazing to get to see these movies on the big screen, something I never got to experience with the originals since most of them came out before I was born. Sure, some of the casting might be off and the CGI is definitely cringey, but I find that I don't mind those issues because it's so much fun to see a shiny, brand new interpretation of my favorite childhood movies.

Idk if this is unpopular or not but I don't like the Pirates of the Caribbean series. I love the first two movies but the third one was only ok, the fourth was boring, and tbh the fifth one ticks me off because it was so bad

I've never really had a problem with Disney owning Star Wars because I honestly thought Disney already owned it since there's a SW ride in the parks. The only new SW movie I've seen so far is Rogue One and I thought that was a great movie, it kept my interest the whole time unlike the past movies which kinda bored me most of the time

I want them to make more movies about Max Goof. He's such a relatable character. I just watched An Extremely Goofy Movie today, and afterwards, I couldn't help but think "Man, I wish that Disney would make more movies about Max.".

If Anna is stupid for trusting a guy she hasn't known long but treated her kindly, what does that make Rapunzel for trusting an entire bar of criminals and murderers she's known even less? Liking unicorns and sewing doesn't make you a good person. It doesn't even make you a nice person. Hitler was a sensitive artist who liked blondes too. But what I dislike about Tangled is how it jumps through loops to excuse some bad behavior and condemn others. And this isn't limited to just Rapunzel btw (Belle and Pocahontas for example also get away with doing some incredibly foolish stuff) but people love to compare the two, and I'm so tired of hearing how Anna is an idiot for her trusting nature while Rapunzel's is adorable and justified.

I dont know why but i cant imagine snow and aurora be best friend

Also for me prince Hans is a great villain.

I don't get why forgivingness is quite often considered a distinctive Jasmine's attribute or something like that. Not that isn't forgiving( she is) but I don't think it makes her that unique. All Disney Princes, except first four, weren't consistently nice to their love interests and somehow wronged them. And it's considering only love interests. Love interests aside, Snow White forgave Grumpy. Cinderella in the sequel forgave Anastasia( who, unlike Aladdin to Jasmine, has never done anything good to her, to me it takes much more forgivingness than forgiving a loving if flawed person). Aurora was pretty quick to forgive fairies for lying to her during whole her life( of course, nowhere near as bad as what, say, Tremaine deeds but being lied about your background during whole your life is still quite traumatizing and in media it's a quite common reason for a character to hold grudge).
So I don't really see how Jasmine is OUTSTANDINGLY forgiving.

Idk if this is an unpopular opinion or not but I've seen more negative comments for this movie than good so here we go

I actually really liked how Zootopia talked a lot about racism and prejudice. I've seen people talk about how it got way too preachy and stuff but honestly I think this was something kids really needed to see especially with what's going on in real life. Personally I've never had a problem with how much it was talked about because, again, not only is this a movie kids need to see, it also really fits with all the hate that's been going on forever and it came out the same year we got that thing as president

I get it if you don't look at this the same way I do, but I judge Pocahontas (movie) for what it is, rather than what it should be. I don't think that this watered down fanfiction-y 'version of history' is a good representation of what truly happened in any way, nor should people take it as a history lesson. Heck, maybe it shouldn't have been made in the first place.
However, I enjoy it for other things. The music, animation, chemistry of the characters, etc. are well done. Pretty much what I'm saying is that I (maybe wrongfully?) separate this movie from it's origin when i watch it. There are two stories. One happened, and the other is fiction, with some loose connections. It is flawed, but I believe it's possible to enjoy this movie while acknowledging the mistakes made. If you can't get past that, I understand.
My apologies if this isn't unpopular.

I think the "Monster" song from musical adaptation of Frozen add more of Elsa's story and brings more depth throughout Elsa's character, and the song portray her anxiety and depression better than "Let it Go".

Here's link if anyone haven't heard of it.

After trying to watch Olaf's Frozen Adventure, but not finishing it, I thought I'd post this.

As much as I like Frozen, I don't really like the spring short or the holiday special. (This combo of liking the first movie but not the rest might be a little uncommon.) I don't so much mind the plots; they're fairly interesting and worth exploring. They just weren't executed that well. The characters' personalities are all a little off, and just not radiating with personality, charm, or emotion as in the movie. That might be why the humor doesn't work as well. The songs are all forgettable to me, too. I only remember "When We're Together" exists from making a lyric video a while back.

It's hard to explain, but I know why I don't like these two shorts as much. It's because with the original Frozen, everything was "fresh." The people making it had no idea how successful the movie would be, but did the best work they could. These shorts didn't have to be bold; they knew they'd be successful. As a result, that passion and effort isn't as strong here, making these weak products, even for shorts.

All that being said, I'm on the fence for Frozen 2. I can't wait to learn plot details. However, the subpar quality of the two shorts and the mixed opinions of Ralph 2 make me worry a little that I won't like it.

Okay, so basically this isn't from a Disney film. But, I absolutely despise Fievel Mousekevitz's voice from An American Tail. I recently watch the reunite scene from the movie and his voice irritates me to the max! Especially in that scene, it's too over the top.

I would love to have a dad just like Hector. He's funny, kind, caring encouraging, understanding, and so sweet. I really like how he hugs and gently tries to calm Miguel down in the cenote, instead of shouting making it worse like my dad does to me when I have a meltdown.

I don't know why Disney keeps remaking their own movies. Though I LOVE the live-action version of 101 Dalmatians, and I thought the live-action version of Beauty And The Beast was great, I also feel like they should've left iconic films alone. For example:
The Jungle Book-they should've left that one alone.
Aladdin-they should've left that one alone.
Dumbo-they should've left that one alone. (Even though I vaguely remember seeing it as a kid.)
The Lion King-they REALLY should've left that one alone.
Mulan-they SURE AS HELL should've left that one alone!
The Hunch Back Of Notre Dame-they should've left that one alone. (If you don't already know about this one, see my recent wall post.)
Lady And The Tramp-they should've left that one alone. (Yep, this one is getting a live-action remake, too.)
Pinocchio-they should've left that one alone. (Another live-action remake I forgot to mention.)

On a side-note, I have NOT seen the live-action version of Cinderella yet, and I'm actually excited about the movie called Cruella. (I hope they ask Glenn Close to come back for THIS live-action film!) I've decided not to say anything about Maleficent because I feel like that's actually its own film.

While I actually don't mind SOME live-action adaptions, I also feel like there are films (especially iconic ones) that just shouldn't be tampered with.

I DON'T think that Varian from Tangled: The Series is a good or compelling villain AT ALL! In his early appearances, before he became a villain, he was a likable enough character. However, when he became a villain, the problems with his character were multifold. First being that the way he decided that Rapunzel and her allies were his enemies was just made it hard for me to understand his point of view, especially since a lot of it was HIS fault. Rapunzel couldn't leave to help because she was left in charge of her kingdom and her people needed her because of the dangerous winter weather. She had an entire kingdom in danger that needed her complete and total attention, so she couldn't just leave to help one kid. Second being that the reason he needed her help was because of a mess that HE caused. He was told not to mess with something but he felt the need to do it anyway and because of that, his dad was frozen in some weird ass gold rock thing. He's blaming Rapunzel and her allies for something that was his fault. True, if we went all the way back, it was the King's fault, but Varian just made it worse by messing with something that he didn't understand and would obviously just make worse. So his response was to make others suffer. That leads to the third problem, which is that he ends up just coming off as a little brat throwing a tantrum, won't take responsibility for what he did, blames others for something that he was to blame for and the only one who was more at fault was the King but still wanted everyone to pay, intentionally tries to kill innocent people like the Queen and Cassandra, and blatantly says that him being the bad guy was no fault of his own when it really is. The forth problem is his design. I don't care what they try to do! They are not going to make some scrawny, socially awkward, short, dorky, freckle-face 14-year-old kid with an overbite look intimidating or convincing as a villain. I can't take a character that looks like that seriously as a villain. He is an overrated character that is poorly written and never should've been made a villain AT ALL.

i find "be prepared" from the lion king one of the most overrated disney song
Also even if scar is a very good villain i find sherekhan more threatening than him and a better villain

Some opinions about remakes, maybe it sounds similar with mhs1025's opinion above but I'll add some of my perspectives here:

1. I think Disney should stop remaking popular and classical movies especially the hit ones from 90s. Leave them alone as classics for us. I think Disney should've been remaking underrated movies more and I'm sure it would work better. People would have high hopes with remakes of popular movies and most of the time, they were ended with a huge disappointment.

So far the only remake that work well for me is Cinderella (2015) and why? That's because the director and writer stay true of the original story and focused to Ella's courage and kindness instead of add twist that ruin the story and excessive CGI like the rest did. Although Maleficent and BATB did better on box office that's only because of the huge attention towards Angelina Jolie and Emma Watson.

2. Aladdin remake is a huge MISCAST! Most of the cast are not even from the Middle East. Aladdin is the only one that was kinda accurate as the actor is Egyptian, and Egypt is a part of Middle East. The rest, well Naomi Scott is half British and half Indian (India is a South Asia country not Middle East, and their culture is DIFFERENT), Will Smith is African American (and he ain't even that funny to be the Genie imo)

I read somewhere that Disney needs longer time to find the main cast, and that's the result? Come on! Disney, if you have such a hard time to remaking non-European movies then I suggest you to not remaking them rather than bring us the disrespectful remakes towards the originals. Even the Aladdin remake would include link, Disney you just made a mistake. It would be better if Disney keep making more original POC animated movies like Moana rather than POC remakes with a lot of miscast.

Now I'm afraid with how they did Mulan with Niki Caro and Liu Yifei. Seriously.

The new live-action Cinderella (character) sort of just feels like a walking moral, and I don't feel for her as much as the animated one. Though I consider all deaths devastating, the fact that she loses her father at an older age is a tiny part of it. The first Cinderella loses hers at an age when she's still dependent and easier to influence. The dress ripping scene was sad, but they could have done so much more. I get that traumatizing kids isn't what Disney intends to do, but it feels very safe, doesn't stir up the emotions much. Also, we've seen Cinderella (new) break down before, so this scene doesn't make us feel like this is the absolute last straw for her, the way the animated one does. Also we've seen new Cinderella leave the house and go down town, something I believe the old Cinderella couldn't do. I just don't think her character is as compelling. She lacks the subtle spunk and determination we love.
Forgive me if I have my facts wrong, I've seen this movie just once and it was a while ago. It IS visually stunning, I'll give it that.

i used to think just like a lot of people that rapunzel and anna look a lot alike ! but not anymore in fact i find them to look very different ! they just both have huge eyes

I know it's considered overrated but I love The Lion King SO MUCH. Like I love it so much I can't even see why it's considered overrated. I love all the characters, all the songs, the animation, and the story and I can still remember all the lines. I'm really looking forward to the remake, even if it sucks I'll still want to watch it

I never understand the hate for the revival era. I guess some movies could have been better like Frozen and Winnie the Pooh (it was a shorter version of Pooh’s Grand Adventure) but is hating a couple of the movies enough to hate the entire era which has a quite a few good movies?

Or another reason I don’t understand is when people don’t like the Revival era for doing things that past movies have done. Frozen did a movie about sibling love, so did Brother Bear and Lilo and Stitch. Moana didn’t fall for the friend she made on her adventure, neither did Marlin in Finding Nemo or Bolt in Bolt.

The only ones I can really see being an issue is “you can’t marry a man you just met” and “I’m not a princess” but those only happened in two movies

I hated/was afraid of Lucifer as a kid, but now I think he's hilarious, even a little cute. He's animated hilariously, and at times, he moves like real cats. Cracks me up!

I think this is a very unpopular opinion XD but i find the love triangle in frozen thousand more interesting than the relationship between the sisters.

I meant to say something about this a WHILE back, but I'm finally available the time, so, let's begin. I watched both Atlantis movies about 6 months ago, and I have some things I have to say about the animation style of each. When I watched the first Atlantis, I felt like I was watching a movie. The animation was breathtaking. When I watched the second Atlantis, I felt like I was watching a 90's TV show. The animation was alittle blotchy, and I felt like I went back to the 90's. The acting was good in both movies. I just wish they chose to stick with the original animation style for the sequel.

Merida deserved a better written movie. She's a really complex, interesting character but the plot never explored her potential. The writers failed her.

Some Moana confessions for POTM:

I really like Shiny, I think it's a fun song

I don't think Moana is unoriginal or bland - she's awesome!

Moana is hands down the prettiest CGI princess so far

I don't really like the way the ocean is animated... it kinda looks like a giant blue tongue to me...

Not liking a popular movie doesn't always mean it's actually overrated, it just means you don't like it. I'm not a fan of Nightmare Before Christmas even though it's really popular but I'm not going to go around saying "Uuugh why do people like this movie? It's so overrated!!"

-

It's possible to disagree without starting a big argument and going on an essay long rant

I've heard a lot of people on here say they think Moana is unoriginal, but I disagree:

1. Moana is the only DP who is being explicitly trained to be a leader for her people and who embraces that role.

2. Moana is the only DP who desires adventure but also loves and values her home and longs to return to it once her adventure is over.

3. Moana is the only DP whose goals and story have nothing at all to do with romance or marriage.

4. Moana is the only DP who defeats her villain by not defeating them at all, and instead using compassion to understand them.

Whether or not you think she's bland is a matter of personal preference, but I fail to see how she's unoriginal, at least in the context of the DPs.

I know a lot of stuff in the Disney movies is just pandering to someone but I still enjoy them. Like the scene in Endgame where all the female heroes gather to help Spider-Man, I honestly don’t care that it was just there for the feminists, I loved that part and it was so cool to see them all in action together

This probably is just me... but why is the Frozen 2 stuff in every toy store taking up more collective space than even the normal toy area? I am starting to feel irritated with Disney, again. Disney did this the last time around, when Frozen debuted. Gonna overdo it/wear it all out again, Disney? I understand promotional material. But overkill is overkill.

I hope Into the Unknown beats Let It Go by popularity!!!

I don't know why but I always get so annoyed when a fan says "my [insertcharacternamehere]", especially when someone says "They ruined my Jasmine!" or "My Ariel looks terrible!"

This isn’t exactly unpopular but this has been bothering me for months

I hate that we finally get a Black Widow movie and it’s AFTER she’s killed off in Endgame. And this isn’t taking place after Endgame like the shows we’re getting on Disney+, no this is a backstory stand-alone film like Iron Man or Captain America. It seems so pointless watching it because we all know she’s dead now. And what’s even more frustrating is because a lot of other people feel this way, Black Widow might not do well in the box office and Marvel will most likely think it’s because movies about female heroes don’t make money

Also with that said I think it’s messed up that Black Widow didn’t get a funeral or that we didn’t actually see it it because her death was overshadowed by Iron Man’s death
