[@kittiesice]

I love the symbolism behind the lava monster turning into a goddess of the earth because in real life Volcanic soil is very fertile and perfect for growing plants.

[@neolithiumproduction]

Plus it goes to how many fertile islands are volcanic, and can go from a place of life quickly to a place of death if the volcano errupts. Its an amazing bit of symbolism and made me fall in love with this movie so much because even I didn't make that connection till that moment at the end.

[@JTLI90]

As a Pacific Islander, I appreciate how much Disney worked to research some lore from the region, especially Polynesian legends. Maui is known throughout the Pacific as a sort of Hercules/Loki legend. Some of the navigation techniques are based on actual Micronesian wayfinding. And Moana’s connection to the ocean is actually pretty fitting. Her name Moana literally means ocean 🌊

[@MisterMuffinut]

@@Just_niaxx That’s true for most coastal and nautical cultures. In the Pacific, the ocean is feminine, and is usually regarded as a “she”.

Interestingly enough, historically, there actually *was* about a 2000 years "Long Pause" in voyaging in the Island cultures. Then they resumed sailing and voyaging with a vengeance, spreading throughout the rest of islands in the Pacific.

What I loved most about the twist at the end of Te Ka being Te Fiti was how it reversed the trend Disney had for several films starting with "Frozen:" instead of a nice character being revealed as a secret villain all along, the villain is revealed to be a good person all along.

[@SpacialRend7]

What I love about Moana is that not only it’s directed by famous Disney writers, John Musker and Ron Clements (who also directed films like The Little Mermaid and Aladdin, for example), but this also feels like a Disney Renaissance era film.

[@lacondrathompson1747]

18:12+18:13+18:14+18:15+18:16+18:17

[@silverdemonwolf426]

Te Ka being Te Fiti makes sense if you think about it. Rock/earth from volcanic eruptions is incredibly great for plant growth once things cool off, and basically all islands in the pacific (where this is set) were volcanic at some point, to grow large enough to be above the surface and BE islands. NGL I totally still didn't get it until I saw the spiral though

[@princesssunshine79]

I can say without a doubt that when this film first came out, I had NO inclination to watch it. Refused even when it came to DVD. Then one day I said screw it and fell in LOVE with the film. Moana is one of the truly good ones. And I am all for Disney having the girls themselves save the day. Not a kiss. Not true love. Themselves. I love the animation, the characters, and the songs. And The Rock is pretty freaking hilarious. 🤣🤣

[@neolithiumproduction]

Oh my gosh, same. I never watched it and hadn't wanted to, then one day gave in cause my mom had recorded it on direct tv. Now its hands down my favorite modern disney movie.

[@ismaelvargas-osiris6108]

I love that the travellers' song is about going away to find new places but never forgetting the way back home.

I love this movie so much, especially the twist at the end. And it makes sense to when you think about it. Life and death, creation and destruction...they are just two sides of a coin. Volcanoes may destroy, yet their ash left behind is a potent rich earth that grows new life.

This movie is so hilarious! I love Moana and Maui's jokes, but mostly the fact that he cares about her.☺️

[@twist58]

I consider Moana as a cross between the free-spirited nature of Pocahontas and the islander feel of Lilo Pelekai.

[@mredwin5896]

Moana is one cool movie of Disney, i watched it multiple times and i still enjoy it until today

[@SpudsClips]

I recommend you watch Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. It's a hugely underrated movie and only a few people have reacted to it. Also Bolt is really emotional.

[@matheusmariani3108]

at some point in the story, Maui and Tamatoa were the same character, someone who had a deep past and chose what the ouside world views on them, their songs, You're Welcome and Shiny, as different as they are, are thematically the same it was Tamatoa who made Moana and Maui start bonding. I think Schaffrillas 1 hour long analysis of him explain it better

[@peterschmidt4348]

I hope for a "THE NEVERENDING STORY" reaction !

[@ktrujillo]

My friend is filipino and she grew up on the islands and she told me that this was how she grew up as a kid minus the giant monster. But the island living was something she grew up doing. Running to waters, gathering coconuts and fishing. It's her favorite film. 🙂

24:06 Maui: Without my hook, I'm nothing. Me: If you're nothing without your hook, then you shouldn't have it. 😂

[@kupaakaleo137]

ok but the thing is, in his stories, he only ever used the fishhook once when he pulled up the islands of Hawai'i/North Island of Aotearoa/etc (depending on the version). the fishhook then snapped and flew into the sky leaving its print that most people know it today as the constellation Scorpius (which is where they got that star visual when Tala was showing Moana where to go)
