      The king has transformed...

      Compared to other cartoons I have seen, I have a soft spot for it. Although it has been a long time since I watched it, when someone asked me to recommend a cartoon, I would recommend this one....
      the character or plot of the whole film. The above may not be much pioneering than other animations, but the color of the whole film is lively and pure, and the expression techniques are creative. Although the picture is simple but the sense of space is extremely strong, it can be said...

      It's a movie that will make you want to watch it again immediately after watching it!

      Although it was watched a long time ago, it is definitely a movie that all animation fans should watch!
      Although there is no modern 3D effect, but there are many highlights:
      1. The plot is very humorous,
      2. The king's dubbing fully expresses his character There are many classic dialogues, including the selection of the queen (or the maid?), and the scene where the king fires the witch Yzma. It is still fresh in my memory.
      3. The expression of the whole story...

      "Turn into a King" was originally set to be a traditional Disney music film "The Kingdom of the Sun"

      "Become a King" is the first non-musical animated feature film after the Disney Renaissance in 1990.

      In fact, the film was originally set to be a traditional Disney music film, and the earliest title was "The Kingdom of the Sun".

      There were originally two directors, Mark Dindal and Roger Allers (director of "The Lion King").

      The earliest story setting is completely different from the current one. The earliest "Kingdom...

      Kingdom in the Sun

      In order to watch the 2000 cartoons, I also bought a one-month member on iQiyi, Intristin.
      The front is quite satisfactory. I like Hua Mulan and The Lion King. Those animations at that time were different from the current motion captures. There was a texture of the animations I saw when I was young. It was probably not as delicate as a real person. It took a few frames to see the subtle changes in expressions. Nowadays, even the micro expressions can be captured in cartoons. I...

      My personal classic

      At first, I didn't like this style of painting very much, but because my friends watched it together, I endured it. But I was quickly attracted by the little king, too capricious, too self-righteous, and too simple and cute. Hehe, so I like it.
      After that, I was tossed by a series of laughs. I suggest you read the Mandarin version. Because there are many laughs, you can only be successful when you match your tone. Of course, the original English version is also good, and it is...

      The king is really cute. When he was dictatorial, the king had a bit of Hitler's shadow. Forcibly demolished, dictatorial, and arrogant. I always feel that this film seems...

    Movie plot

    A long time ago, there was a very magical kingdom in the deep mountains and jungles of the south. People in the kingdom are not only well-fed and live in harmony, but everyone is full of happiness and knows how to live. However, the young king Kusted was very proud and conceited and loved vanity. One day, he had a whim while planning his 18th birthday celebration and decided to build a water park in the mountains. Although this...

    "Transfiguration King" did not use flexible three-dimensional technology, and the background color was not bright enough canvas as the background, probably to add to the film's classical mood. (Oriental Entertainment Review) 
    "Transformed King" abandons the regularity of Disney animation's past inheritance and transformation, and adds some adult-style modern jokes at the right time, especially Gao Gang, who is often confused about the...
