Te Fiti and Te Ka's reveal is among my favorite moments in a movie. Cause when I made the connection, I was just so impressed and surprised. Volcanoes are a big part of islands, ocean life, and Polynesian life. They bring death and destruction when they erupt, but at the same time volcanic soil is amazing for farming and creates many of the islands and the life on them. Its the perfect example of a God/Goddess of Life who can also become a God/Goddess of death. It even makes sense when Te Fiti goes to sleep...as in a volcano sleeping. And it makes so much sense when you realize that is what Te Ka was. Te Ka was Te Fiti, but the destructive side of her. One of the greatest moments in writing, honestly, and I'm still impressed by that bit of this movie to this day. Also, note Maui lingering around Moana's boat as an eagle at the end. I think he'll always have a friend in her, and that's really what he always needed. A person that cared for him, and not just what he could do for them.

[@darrenobayashi6528]

The touching of noses, as you pointed out (it's a Disney movie, so she can do that to a demon), actually is the greeting used in Hawaiian/Polynesian traditions. "Aloha" means "breath of life". When you greet someone, you touch noses to "share" the breath of life.... so Moana respectfully greeted Te Ka with the traditional greeting and Te Ka responded in such. As Moana and Te Fiti did the same as the parted. (Aloha being both a hello and a goodbye. ;))

“They don’t seek more, they don’t want more.” Many Asian and Polynesian cultures in the old days had the mentality of “Only take what you need.” In this way, they gave their environment a chance to heal and replenish their resources-it was also practiced because it was a way of survival. While that mentality is still practiced, it is not nearly as widespread today.

do you know the time frame of that? could be some small ice age or something...

@@zbynekurbanek3345 OK, so, there's no real concrete dates I could find for this, but roughly, the Long Pause seems to have been between ~800 BCE (the settlement of Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga) and ~1000 CE (the settlement of Hawaii and Tahiti). One of the more common theories is technological advancement - you have to develop a new type of boats - you can reach the western isles with an outrigger canoe, but need a double-hulled canoe for the longer voyages across the Pacific. Or it could have been wind patterns shifting.

[@zbynekurbanek3345]

@ I bet on the natural causes... wind patterns is possible... other thing that came to mind is accidental deforestation... if you cut down all the trees on the island you need to wait couple hundred years before the forests return and you can build bigger boats regularly again... this is possible for smaller islands

[@jinthao00]

Imo Moana has one of the best soundtrack. I also loved how Moana saved the world without needing a love interest, giving up on her identity, or thinking she could do it herself. It's also subverts the trope of needing a strong man to do everything for a strong girl. They both needed each other, and in the end, she became a master in her own right.

Also, many of the polynesian islands are volcanic islands.

The person who sang the song "We Know The Way" is Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote the music for this film. He also wrote the music for Encanto and more famously the Broadway musicals Hamilton and In The Heights (which recently had a film adaptation). If you're a fan of the music, I highly recommend watching Hamilton (it's a stage play, not a film). I think it's still available on Disney+ and is regarded as the most popular musicals of the past 20 years.

I was teaching in China when it released and Chinese kids loving all things Disney, it enabled me a way to share some of the Maori folklore I grew up with, in New Zealand. I was constantly singing along with the songs in the headset, it got to the point the the entire teachers office would be lit up with us all singing the sound track toegther, it spilled over to our students and their parents who would download the movie for their children to learn so they could sing with us. It got to the point that if anyone said "thank you" for anything, there would be a chorus of "you're welcome", in response. This movie vibed life & energy into our school.
