The previous publicity was all about "IMDB Rotten Tomatoes is popular across the board", "more popular than Zootopia", "Disney's masterpiece sweeping the box office" -
and so on.
Because of the full goodwill brought by Crazy Zoo, I am looking forward to Romance of the Sea.
After all, on IMDB, Pocahontas is indeed 0.2 points higher than Zootopia.
Yet again I was disappointed.
Of course, there are a lot of great things about Moana.
After the reform in 2006, Disney is full of blood resurrection.
Now Disney generally has three or four movie projects going on at the same time. Each movie takes at least five years from preparation to production, using a production team of hundreds of people, and finally guarantees that one movie will be released a year.
"Pocahontas" director Ron Clements began preparing for the film in 2011, and he has visited small islands in the South Pacific.
Therefore, the film has a profound South Pacific cultural charm.
Maui with magical tattoos is a hero in Polysinian mythology.
I have long heard that 80% of the scenes in "Ocean's Sea" are sea water scenes. After seeing the film, it was really amazing.
Disney didn't have ready-made technology to do the sea water effect, so they developed new liquid simulation software this time.
Is there a feeling of "wow, so handsome"?
The truth of the world is that it takes a lot of time and energy to make good works.
Having said that, I don't know if the production cycle of "Autobots" is enough to take a bath.
Although "Pocahontas" is commendable for its excellent production, the plot is just-
except for some bright spots, such as the coconut shell with a vicious expression on the ground.
Intellectually retarded cross-eyed chicken.
There are also volcano monsters turning into mature goddesses and the like.
The rest is still the old way.
Of course, there are still people who think that the plot innovation of "Ocean's Moana" is dazzling.
But I think it's just a comparison with Disney before.
In recent years, Disney has broken away from the "princess waiting for the prince, and the prince saves the princess" routine for many years, and the female consciousness in the plot is gradually awakening.
From the silly prince image in "Rapunzel", to the love of sisters in "Frozen", and then to "Ocean's Moana", Moana is reluctant to stay in a corner and insists on setting sail.
But Disney's eternal kindness, bravery, perseverance, dream come true, and family joy, remain the same.
This routine has a long history and a deep audience base, so that it deviates a little from this routine, and has been applauded by people as "very innovative".
Yes yes, I know, there must be a lot of people who will say, "What's wrong with the routine, isn't this Disney! Isn't this Disney!"
Of course, you're right, this is Disney.
Disney has nothing to blame for that either.
The world audience is happy to see the same person jumping around in different clothes every year.
This man is certainly a successful man.
So it's still a good movie.
