Wreck-It Ralph

[@EChacon]

My Top 5 favorite Revival era films are: 1. Zootopia 2. Tangled 3. The Princess and the Frog 4. Frozen 5. Moana

[@c.d.dailey8013]

Frozen! That is definitely Frozen. That is my favorite movie in the entire Disney canon. Frozen 2 makes a close second. Another favorite is Moana. Those are Revival movies too.

"None" I Don't Take Them All Because I'm Not Stupid To Take Something That Pained Me And Not Having Real Anime In It, All Of It Is Retarted, Bad, Stupid & Ugly Annoying. I Don't Want These Crap

[@edizgunes]

Moana or Wreck it Ralph I'm not sure

[@phillinsogood]

Tangled was definitely the best of that era imo. Princess & The frog was also a beautiful film honestly one of the most visually stunning Disney films ever

[@SkyBeatSaber]

It's practically murder that Bolt is unknown and unappreciated to this day. Most people who've even heard of it aren't aware that it's a Disney film, nor of it's beautiful history and unique qualities. It's one of the best Disney films ever made in my opinion.

[@ModernMouse]

I've definitely told many people that it's a Disney film after they try to tell me it's a Pixar film. I think most people associate Disney with songs and fairy tales and Pixar stories are typically modern in feel...so that's why people argue that it isn't a Disney movie. I actually haven't seen the movie in a long time so you've now inspired me to go revisit that movie because I'm not even sure if I like it or not.

[@NorySapp]

Ralph Breaks The Internet is part of the Revival Era not the Modern era.

[@callumdrage1051]

I hope one day Disney returns to 2D traditional animation. I feel like these days, audiences may be ready for some old fashioned styled filmmaking.

[@mechajay3358]

Yeah, It's a shame how that medium has fallen on the wayside theatrically but films like Klaus show that there's still a demand for 2D.

[@juanrisa945]

Well, Mary Poppins Return had some 2D animation like Roger Rabbit.

[@kevingeiger1966]

CHICKEN LITTLE’S role in keeping Disney Animation alive and the team & technology moving forward is always overlooked. 🙃

[@aquapyro1]

Finally!! I’ve been waiting for this for a long time.

[@ModernMouse]

Part 2 will be out later this month as well.

[@zukroh5201]

Network 1901 later this month or in the middle

[@ModernMouse]

Not sure yet. Probably in the middle but I still don't have a script written yet.

[@cmrobbins88]

I had regained interest in Disney during this era. Especially since I was studying animation and visual development in college. Moana was the first Disney film (not including Pixar or third party properties) that I had seen in theaters since Brother Bear. Jin Kim, the character design artist for many of these films, is one of my favorite artists and his works on Tangled, Frozen, and Big Hero 6 are incredible.

[@ModernMouse]

I think his contribution in knowing how to create characters, especially faces that are relatable in terms of how expressive those characters can be is super important and not appreciated enough!

[@shanicestella2226]

I should say that Princess and the Frog is very Renaissance style with some modern touch in the era of the Revival The Good side is , so far this is the era when Disney doesn’t depend too much on Pixar , in comparison with the previous Post - Renaissance For Revival era , For visual wise , it’s looks more vivid and smoother CGI My 2 favourite in this era : - Tangled - Big Hero 6

[@skylersandoval5504]

I love the Revival Era! Thanks for the great video Josh!

[@ModernMouse]

Thank you for the constant love

[@robiperurobiperu5084]

Yea me too is fantastic era specialy renaisance era and post renaisance era

[@justinperry2520]

It's sad that Disney abandoned traditional animation and Disney are now remaking their animated films and computer animation.

[@focal_point]

That's such an interesting history, thanks for sharing!

[@ModernMouse]

thanks for watching!

[@lonie43]

I’m so glad I found your channel.Keep up the great work 👍😊

[@ModernMouse]

Glad you found it too! Thanks for the comment and I’ll be seeing you around I guess!

[@EChacon]

Thanks for the upload Josh, and really love the history on how Disney rebounded itself from their recent films after their hit-and-miss animated films from the Post-renaissance era. I'm surprised Bolt is listed given that it was either that film or Princess and the Frog that started the "revival" era that's been a tossup by most Disney fans.

[@ModernMouse]

It can be a toss up and a film that will probably continue to be debated among Disney fans. For me it comes down to Lasseter's involvement and the profitability of the film.

[@jonathanring3614]

There is a key critical piece of information you left out. The reason The Princess and the Frog didn't make as much money is because it competed against Avatar in theaters. Avatar was released one week after Princess.

[@ModernMouse]

There was so much to fit into these videos that it was difficult to narrow everything down but you are correct. I'm sure I could have made this video an hour or longer. Thank you for pointing it out.

[@jonathanring3614]

My Top 5 favorite Revival era films are: 1. Zootopia 2. Tangled 3. The Princess and the Frog 4. Frozen 5. Moana

[@ModernMouse]

Zootopia for the win!!!

[@carminecdinoproductions]

Please do a second part for the revival era!

[@ModernMouse]

Part 2 is coming really soon

[@cqntralls]

I love the revival era :))) It’s like a second Renaissance! Would you say we’re STILL in the revival with Encanto coming soon? Or do you think we’re coming into a new era and we don’t know it?

[@invadertak1001]

I think we all know why princess and the frog didn't do so well at the box office and it had less to do with gender and everything to do with race.

[@ModernMouse]

This is it

[@andyfilmsandhikes]

great video! love the background and information !

[@ModernMouse]

Thanks Andy. Glad you enjoyed it. Keep up doing what you are doing over on your channel too. Seems like it is picking up steam!

[@Aurora-Welch]

The post renaissance actually ended with bolt. Not meet the Robinsons.

[@ModernMouse]

It's been a while since I made this video but I believe I do state that Bolt can go either way. Of most every Disney release, that's the one film I think fits in either for different reasons.

[@afilmbee]

my favorite revival era films are: 1. Zootopia 2. Tangled 3. The Princess and The Frog 4. Wreck it Ralph 5. Moana

[@ModernMouse]

Zootopia is by far and away the best film in the era!

[@savannahinparis]

Love this vid! Will you make another video for the era after this?

[@ModernMouse]

Revival part 2 which will start with Frozen will be out later this month. Not sure exactly when but yes! Soon!

[@davidconway1905]

the little match girl,

[@donaldcass9678]

Isn't the Post Reanasissue era also the Experiment Era that makes more sense since technically one could also call the Revival Era Post Renaissance too , since Post means after.

[@ModernMouse]

There are lots of different nicknames for each era. You could say its the Experimental era for sure, but Post Renaissance fits. There are lots of art and music movements that use the word "post" in them that don't exactly mean everything afterwards, but just the few years after. Kind of the slow period before a different movement picks things back up again.

[@lightningwolfdog5272]

Bolt deserves to be in the Official Revival Era of Disney

[@ModernMouse]

Glad you think so too

[@jesuusch]

I don’t think so since The Princess and the Frog (a Princess movie), is what brought the Disney magic back

[@jesuusch]

It was also the first Disney traditional animated movie in years and the first musical in years as well which is what Disney is most known for

[@michaelpalos7378]

Agree. It actually had a higher box office than The Princess and the Frog ( 2009 ). I'm not even saying this because I like Bolt ( 2008 ). I have not even seen this film. Based on this thorough explanation and another KZbin video published by this channel.

[@c.d.dailey8013]

That is interesting that there is a Revival for Disney in a modern day. My favorite era is Renaissance. Part of it is because darn near every single movie is pure freaking gold. Another reason is that I am a 90s kid, and these movie was the greatest part of my childhood. The only movie that is relatively mediocre is Rescuers Down Under. It is a movie I completely forgot about. A lot of people overlook it. I would say that the Revival era is my second favorite Disney era. There are a lot of amazing movies in here. My favorite movie in the entire Disney canon is Frozen. Then Frozen 2 makes for a close second. Two other favorites are Moana and Princess and the Frog. Those four movies are all Revial Era movies. Tangled, Zootopia and Big Hero Six are also amazing movies from this era. They are not favorites though. The two Wreck It Ralph movies are not quite as good as the others, but they are still very fun to watch. The only movie in this era that is bad is the Winnie the Pooh movie. Having most movies be incredible is still very impressive. Since we got through all Eras I could probably rank them. The third best is the silver age. I think it is the age where Walt Disney himself was at the top of his game. It is full of beloved classics. The movies also have better plot structures than the previous two ages. The era even starts with Cinderella. This is my favorite movie that Walt Disney made when he was alive. close second is Sleeping Beauty, and that was also made in the Silver Era. I would put the gold era in fourth place. These movies are in the okay category. It does have beloved Disney classics. I do like Snow White and Bambi. I enjoy Fantasia, even if it is not a technically good movie. As high points of Disney eras go, I find the gold era the weakest. The plots in these movies are weak to nonexistent. I think it is because it is the first era, and Disney was still learning how to make full length movies. When the company learns, it is bound to show improvement in the Silver, Renaissance and Revival Ages. After the Gold Era there is the low points. The fifth one is the Experimental Era. This channel calls this the Post Renaissance. There are a lot of bad movies in this era. I find it a huge disappointment after enjoying the Renaissance so much. I did watch all the movies in recent times. I find that some of the sci fi movies are fun to watch, even if they are not the greatest thing. So the Experimental Era is the least bad of the low points. The sixth place is the Bronze Era. It is also called the Disney Dark age. It is a very bad time for Disney. A lot of the movies were bad, and they didn't get commercial success. However I can find some good stuff in there if I dig in deep enough. Because there are good movie, I prefer to call this the Bronze Age instead of the Dark Age. It is interesting to find the diamonds in the rough. My favorite Experimental movie is Brother Bear. My favorite Bronze movie is Fox and the Hound. When I rank movies, I find that both of them make it into my top ten. The seventh place is the worst place. In here is the Wartime Era. This is the worst of the worst of Disney. It is the bottom of the barrel. What makes the movies so bad is that they are not porper movies. They are just a bunch of shorts compiled into a movie. When I rank all the Disney movies, I put these at the way bottom. The only ones spared from this bottom of barrel is Three Caballeros and Saludos Amigos. They are not technically good movies, but I find them enjoyable.

[@c.d.dailey8013]

I will comment on the individual movies. Bolt- The history of Bolt is so confusing for me. It is difficult to tell whether this is an Experimental or Revival movie. This video did address this confusion. It does bring up a very good point. Bolt was more commercially successful. It also had a new film maker in the Pixar guy, John Lassiter. However I think that it fits better in the Experimental Era. I think story plays a bigger role than movie. Bolt is a lot more like other Experimental Era movies in terms of story. It has a sci fi story, like a lot of the other movies. By contrast, many of the revival movies go back to the regular fairy tales and fantasy that Disney usually does. Zootopia is a case where Disney goes back to talking animals, which is another thing it frequently has. The only sci fi movie is Big Hero Six, and that is an exception to the rule. It is interesting that Bolt had a Pixar guy, because it is a lot like a Pixar movie. It is CG, which is the most obvious similarity. It has a kind of story that would fit right into the Pixar canon. It is an original story where animals or inanimate objects go through intense character development. For me Bolt is basically Toy Story with pets. I noticed this on my own. Bolt himself is like Buzz Lightyear. He thinks he is some great high-tech hero. Then he learns that this identity is false. So he goes through a whole existential crisis. He eventually learns that it is good enough to be beloved by a child, and he accepts that. Mittens is the Woody of the story. She is already familiar with the harsh realities. So she knocks some sense into Bolt. They are major enemies at first. However they do become friends eventually. The story is about the pets being separated from the owner and their efforts to go back home. So this is really is Toy Story with pets. Maybe this is because Toy Story is perhaps the most famous Pixar movie, and the film makers are trying to replicate that success. One nice thing about Toy Story is that it has good sequals. When I think of it, I think one can make Bolt sequals to be like Toy Story sequals. The movies write themselves. The second movie would be about a cat show. Mittens discovers her pedigree documents. That would make her a good candidate for a cat show. She performs in cat shows for a while. Bolt may go on a journey to find out where she went. Being in a cat show makes Mittens admired by many people. However it takes away the more intimate connection of being with an owner. So When Bolt finally finds Mittens, Mittens decides to go back home with him. The third movie can be about a kennel. Penny grows up some more and goes off to school. I don't think college is such a good idea. I don't think pets can live long enough to see their child owners grow up completely. Andy's dog does make a cameo in the third Toy Story movie, but it is a very elderly and lethargic dog. So instead, Penny can go to high school instead. She can move into some special boarding school for teenagers. The school does not allow pets. So Bolt and Mittens are put into some place for rejected pets. It could be a kennel, a pound or something. The kennel is ruled by some big mean dog. He rules with an iron fist. So Bolt and Mittens have a big prison break. They eventually find a new child to own them instead. Penny may even have one nice goodbye to Bolt and Mittens before giving them to the new child. Then there is the fourth movie. It can be one about stray pets. Bolt and Mittens live with thier new owner for a while. Mittens fined that she isn't appreciated as much as she used to. The family goes on a camping trip. Bolt and Mittens get lost and separated from the trip. Then Mittens comes across a male ally cat. They become romantically involved. They may have even known each other in the past. Eventually Mittens decides to go back to the life as an ally cat. She has went through two many homes, and got too much heart break. In the original story Mittens even revealed that she have a tragic backstory of being rejected from a home. Mittens decides to be an ally cat again so she can be free of the sorrow. She does have a litter of kittens with the the male ally cat. The newer owner does keep Bolt. She also adopts one of the kittens. She ends up loving it. So the fourth movie has stray animals. It is mainly like the fourth Toy Story movies. Yet it is also like the Disney movies Lady and the Tramp, Oliver and Company and Aristocats. The situation of a pet going through multiple houses even happens to Angel in the Lady and the Tramp sequal.

Princess and the Frog- This is an absolutely wonderful movie. It is one of my favorites of Disney. I am very fond of the Frog Prince fairy tale. I find the new setting very refreshing and interesting. I like the bigger representation of black people. I like how the theme is about work-life balance. It is interesting to see how this movie was developed. The filmakers did choose a different setting to give a new look and feel. I think this is an amazing choice. The movie really dove into the setting of 1920s New Orleans. There is the city, the bayou, the music, the cuisine and and the voodoo. It is amazing. I am so glad that there was input by African Americans. Having Tiana the waitress is a lot better than Maddie the chambermaid. It is cool that Oprah gets to voice Tiana's mother. Pocahontas and Moana were made with a lot of input by the respective non white people. Pocahontas gets input by Powhatan Native Americans. Moana gets input by Polynesians. I think every major movie focusing on minority races should have that. With this input films can be more PC, and that is so much better. Then these movies can be great examples for future storytellers to learn from. Princess and the Frog is mainly a fictional story and a very creative one at that. I am surprised that there is some truth to it. There is a real person inspiring Tiana. That is Leah Chase. That is so cool. I Googled her. I find too more things interesting about her that isn't talked about in the video. One is that the Chase restaurant was a place where black people go for thier Civil Rights movements. That is cool. It is like how Princess and the Frog is moving forward for black people in movie representation. Another interesting thing is Leah's husband, Edgar Chase. Naveen is the Edgar Chaise of the movie. They are surprisingly similar. Not only are both the husband, but they also are jazz players that help establish the restaurant. Edgar was a professional jazz player. Naveen is not a professional. However his greatist skill is playing jazz music. It is something that all the characters overlook. Naveen was struggling so bad to get money. A good solution is just to have him be a professional musician and turn jazz into his job. Naveen and Lewis could both play jazz as a career. As wonderful as Princess and the Frog is, it is sad that it didn't do so well. I think it is less a problem with the movie itself and more of a problem with discrimination against it. There is discrimination of racism, sexism and 2D animation. I am even wonder if the movie can be tweaked to overcome the sexism. It can keep the original title of the Frog Prince. Then the first scene can focus on Naveen. Tangled and Frozen are very similar movies to Princess and the Frog, and they all even have princess leads. Tangled and Frozen has superficial touches of masculinity with the title and the first scene. Maybe that is enough to catch male audience's attention long enough to give the movies a chance. I remember the marketing for Princess and the Frog. There was merchandise all over the place. Beyond that Tiana was also in a bunch of Disney Princess merchandise. It is a shame it didn't pay off. Tangled- This movie is wonderful too. It is not one of my favorites, but it is an honorable mentions. I think it is great to have the princess and the fairy tale. I like the change of making Rupunzel stronger and more magical. When I look at Tangled in the historical context, I gain a new appreciation for it. This is the first CG movie that was really good. When I was younger, I didn't care for CG movies that much. I preferred 2D animated movies. In the olden days, the only ones I enjoyed were Incredibles and Shrek. Later there was a bunch of good CG movies. So I really warmed up to them. The thing that made the later movies better is the story. Story is so important. It is the king of a movie. If the story is bad, than no amount of pretty visuals will save it. The best example of this is Dinosaur. The CG animation is really impressive. It is incredible for Disney's first CG movie without Pixar. It still holds up today. However the story is so bland and boring. It makes the whole movie be mediochre. Disney does so well for so long by making 2d animated movies with good stories. So modern Disney continues to make these good stories with the animation upgraded to CG. This leads to some really spectacular movies. Tangled is really the first movie to do this. I appreciate that. Tangled has a great retelling of the Rupunzel story, and the CG makes for a nice bonus. This trend would continue with other Revival Era movies. There is Both Frozen movies, Moana, Zootopia and Big Hero Six.

[@c.d.dailey8013]

Winnie the Pooh- This is the only bad movie in the Revival Era. It is a little bit better than the Bronze Era Pooh movie. It has a more consistent story and cleaner animation. Still having a movie about Pooh is problematic for me. I never liked Winnie the Pooh. When I go through the Disney canon, I can find a low of underrated movies. It is nice to dig for gems like these. The best examples are Frozen 2, Hercules, Brother Bear, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Fox and the Hound and Princess and the Frog. These are all favorite movies of mine that were not big hits. Winnie the Pooh is the exact opposite. This is the most overrated of Disney. I think Winnie the Pooh is so awful. I have seen the the two Winnie the Pooh movies in the Disney canon. Both movies are awful. I consider them two of the worst movies in the canon. The only Disney movies I consider to be worse are four of the packaged movies of the Wartime Era. There are a bunch of Winnie the Pooh spinoff movies. However I won't bother watching them. It is tough enough to get through the two main ones. I am curious about the live action Christopher Robin movie. I might watch it for one viewing. But that is it. Winnie the Pooh movies are bad stories. The plots tend to be broken up into parts with no major story running all the way through. The stake are really low, so there is not decent amount of suspense and intrigue. Problem are trivial things like finding honey or finding the donky tail. The biggest would be threats of Hefalumps, Woozles and Baxons. However that is more of an issue with paranoia than it does a real threat. The characters are very unlikable too. A lot of them have dot eyes, and that is a very unappealing look. I am really baffled by Pooh's poularity. I don't get why people like this. I did do some research on this. The best I can get is that people like the simplicity to escape from the harshness of the real world. There is a sense of comfort. That is an appeal I can't get into. I enjoy mental challenge. I can't get that in Winnie the Pooh. As a result I find Winnie the Pooh movies really boring. There is no action and no intellegence. It is just really dull and bland. I enjoy really intense nerdy stuff for challenge. This is in things like the novels and video games of fantasy. I am also satisficed with a lot of Disney movies. Pooh is just the opposite, and it doesn't appeal at all. I don't think there was ever a time I got into it. I enjoyed Disney movies as a kid. Yet I never got into Winnie the Pooh. The best possible reason is that Pooh would be best for really little kids and not anybody older. That is very reasonable. However if I did go there, I would much rather watch Barney, Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. Those shows are so much better. They provide mental stimulation in an age appropriate way. I have fond memories watching them in my early childhood. I have long since outgrown these shows, but I still have fond memories. I used to be a big Barney fan, when I was little. It is unfair that Barney has a lot of haters but Pooh doesn't. Pooh first came out in the Bronze Era. I find it unfortunate that that one became the most popular but there are better movies in the Era that remained obscure. One of the good movies was the Black Cauldron. I am very fond of this movie. I wish that one became a big movie franchise instead of Winnie the Pooh. I am even fine with both being popular. They cater to very different age demographics. So they can coexist without too much competition. I think Black Cauldron can grow into a series. At the end of the movie, Taren complete his quest to find the Black Cauldron and defeat the Horned King. However he can totally go on other adventures afterwards. He can go with all his buddies. He has Elonwe, Fleudder, Gurgi and Henwen. Taren and his whole party can travel all over Prydain and go on more adventures. It is like how there are multiple adventures in an RPG. That would be cool.

[@c.d.dailey8013]

Wreck It Ralph- This movie is wierd. It is creative. I find both Wreck It Ralph movies to be the weaker movies of the Revival, but they are still enjoyable. It is fun going through the video game worlds. I did have an issue with the theme . It is odd to think of the villains of video games, being misunderstood guys that provide for the enjoyment of the game. I wasn't sure on what they are going for. I will never see Ganandorf the same way again. He doesn't get a cameo, but that would have been cool. Ganadorf is a pure evil villain of Legend of Zelda. I usually do not like villains like that, but I did find Ganandorf interesting. I like how he made the land barren in Ocarina of Time. It reminded me of the Fisher King Story. It is intriging to imagine Ganandorf being a misunderstood guy. He can totally be in Ralph's villain meeting. Oh well. At least Bowser gets to be in. He really reminds me of Ganondorf. Mario and Zelda are both major video game franchises by Nintendo. Both of them have parallels in their three main characters. Three is a major number, since it is in the triforce of the Zelda games. Each main Mario character has a Zelda parallel. Mario is like Link, because both are male heroes and protagonists. Peach is like Zelda, because both are princesses in distress. Bowser is like Ganandorf, because both are the villains. There is an odd theme of villains being misunderstood and learning to cope with thier roles. It baffles me. I did do some research on this. The best I have found is about a lesson on discrimination. I think the execution is clumsy. Villains are villains due to their actions. It isn't due to demographics outside of their control. I did notice that later on, movies have tackled this much better. Frozen has a misunderstood villain in the Snow Queen. This is Elsa. Her backstory is explained well. People fear and discriminate her for her ability to do ice magic. Elsa didn't really do anything wrong on purpose. She just has difficulty keeping her magic under control. Elsa isn't really forced into a villain role like Ralph does. She really turns this role around and becomes my favorite Disney character. Both movies were written by Jennifer Lee. So I think it is a case of her being better through practice. Zootpia handles the subject of discrimination so much better. I think a big reason why is because it is about furries instead of video games. It is about predators being discriminated. Wild animals are amoral. They do what they need to in order to survive. They don't worry about how thier actions affect others. This doesn't make the animals good, but it doesn't make them evil either. Predators are no different. They hunt and eat prey in order to live. The whole trend of predators being mean is a big misunderstanding. They would only be mean from the perspective of the prey. Preditors are actually benificial to the ecosystems. Their hunting keeps the prey popular in control, so the plants don't get all eaten up. So one can make preditors misunderstood in a story about furries, and it can still work. As long as these furries can eat an alternative food, they will be fine. They can have fish or something. The best predators are cats. They are specialized carnivores, but they are also beloved family pets. The main reason why they are domesticated in the first place is pest control. When cats hunt all the mice and rats, that means the pray won't eat up all the human's stored food. The idea of cats and mice is dine to death in cartoons. So I like Zootopia having a fox and a bunny instead. It is refreshing to have something different. I find that the same scenario occurs. Bunnies are actually major agricultural pests. They eat up crops. Foxes are a actually a mixed blessing. They can be pests in their own right, by eating chickens and other small livestock. However they can also eat bunnies and so be pest control. So the idea of foxes and preaditors in general being misunderstood does work well enough. Wreck It Ralph does have a sequwl, Ralph breaks the Internet. I find that it is so much better. The theme is a lot better. Ralph and Venellapie are both well respected in their games, and they are good friends. They just have to learn to maintain their friendship when they go thier separate ways. That is a very good moral, and it had better execution. I like how Venellope craves novelty and challege. That is nice character growth for her. The origional movie makes a metal a big deal. It is just like the skinner box mechanics ubiqutous to games. In the sequel, there is more depth and goes to a better form of engagement. Challenge and mastery does provide a powerful motivation for players. Since Vanillipe had lots of practice with Sugar Rush, it starts to get easy and dull. So she grows in her racing skill. Then she is ready to take on a more challenging race. I think this is good for her. Ralph's worrying comes across as pearl clutching. It is something that he has to overcome in the story. I am not worried about Vanillipe and her safety. She looks like a little girl, but she doesn't age. As long as she is 18, she should play any game she wants regardless of how graphic it is. Later in the movie the new challanging game was altered so Vanillipe could rez after losses. That is all the precaution she needs. It is cool that the new racing game is an MMO to merge the game world and the internet world. In the internet I would love to have World of Warcraft. That is my favorite game. That would be awesome. If Disney can't get rights from Blizzard, they could just make some generic fantasy MMORPG. I would be satisfied. I like the idea of Ralph and Vanillape visiting a fantasy game world in thier trip to to the internet. My favorite part of the movie is the part about Princesses. It is obviously fanservice. Yet I still enjoy it because I am a huge Disney Princess fan. I like how all of the Pincesses are there. That is so fans can gravitate to whichever ones they have as favorites. Personally my favorites are Elsa and Mulan. I am glad to have them in there. Mulan did bring up an interesting trend of staring in water. I haven't noticed that. Mulan's song about water reflections is the best song in her movie, and it is one of the nicer Princess songs. Ariel is the most watery princess, but she doesn't get to look in water. Maybe she just looks up to the water surface from underneath instead. During the day, the surface looks like a shining ripple. Ariel is obsessed with land and humans. Elsa is my favorite princess character and my favorite Disney character in general. Mulan is my favorite character in the Disney princess canon. Elsa and Anna have really bizarre case. They are not canon because their Frozen movie made too much money. So Frozen is treated like a separate franchise from the Disney princesses in merchandise. So out of the ones that did get in canon, Mulan is my favorite. The princess part of the Wreck It Ralph sequal is so inclusive that it has Pocahontas and Tiana. These characters get a lot of hate, but I have a soft spot for them. I appreciate the inclusion. The most impressive part is including Moana. Her movie came out shortly before the WreckIt Ralph sequal came out.

[@ThePinkDragon]

another great era

[@joshuajoe1419]

I know I’m late but my ranking would be 1. Wreck It Ralph 2. Princess and the Frog 3. Zootopia 4. Tangled 5. Big Hero 6 6. Moana 7. Frozen 8. Frozen 2 9. Wreck It Ralph 2 I haven’t seen Winnie the Pooh or Raya the Last Dragon (though I’ll watch both of them soon). Also I don’t consider Bolt a Revival era film but if I did it’ll be in the top 3.

[@ModernMouse]

You are never too late to rank your movies. I always love seeing them!

[@joshuajoe1419]

4 months later and my list has already changed: 1. Wreck-It Ralph 2. Zootopia 3. Moana 4. Tangled 5. The Princesses and the Frog 6. Big Hero 6 7. Frozen 2 8. Frozen 9. Raya and the Last Dragon 10. Ralph Breaks the Internet

[@juanrisa945]

Make a video about Amphibia please. Its storytelling and themes really are worthy of your kind of analysis

[@ModernMouse]

I'll have to sit down and watch it. I've heard good things. This is something that might come down the pipeline in a few months if I can get to watching it. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@ModernMouse]

Hey Juan, I watched the first season of Amphibia because of you! Im excited to get a video made about it really soon!

[@faith4disney]

15:29 *_Skips Big Hero 6._*

[@ModernMouse]

It doesn't really mean anything beyond not being able to fit it into the short amount of time I had before ending the video. I will definitely be covering Big Hero 6 in the next video as it is one of my favorites of the era.

[@robiperurobiperu5084]

Bolt: is my favorite disney movie is beautyful The princess and frog : good but is not my favorite disney movie Rapunzel: fantastic but now for me is boring but good Winnie the pooh:as fun but is sad in hoter scene Wreck it ralph :is fun and sad in hoter scene but is awsome

[@ModernMouse]

Oh man! I hadn't met anyone that didn't at least like Tangled a little. Why the hate?

[@robiperurobiperu5084]

@@ModernMouse sorry but im am a boy now this movie is of 2010 and now is boring and at not hate this movie but not like now sorry but is the truth 😔

[@cottongames4787]

I love Tangled💇‍♀️

[@jayauutyu1405]

tangled my favourite

[@carminecdinoproductions]

Hello? Are you guys gonna reupload this video?

[@fizzyfuzz5878]

I think it's sad if anyone blamed the style of Princess and the frog's animation rather than the movie itself not connecting enough. Though I agree with the title being an issue. It still grossed more than Lightyear

[@carminecdinoproductions]

Please reupload this video since it was uploaded on International Dinosaur Day and it doesn’t have any dinosaurs!

[@RockerMicke1]

wasn't there two other animated movies the wild and valiant meh guess everyone forgot about them

[@robiperurobiperu5084]

Valiant as not disney movie

[@ModernMouse]

Both films were distributed by the Disney company but neither were actually made by the Disney Animation team. The Wild was made by CORE animation while Valiant was Vanguard animation.

[@robiperurobiperu5084]

Sorry

[@ModernMouse]

Dont be sorry!

[@Mx_Jayjay]

Network 1901 in the UK The Wild is considered a Disney Classic which has always confused me why they opted for that over Dinosaur. Winnie the Pooh (2011) is also not included in the UK's official Classic list. Is there any specific reason why these are the case?

[@caesar7734]

8:22 I went to see it as a boy.

[@Chris-uu8ts]

Where’s Angie and Shannon?

[@ModernMouse]

I addressed this when I went live to do Pixar trivia. Shannon has opted to step away and focus on her own things. As far as Angie, the unfortunate response I have to give is that we are getting divorced and she has also stepped away because of that. I'm still friends with Shannon and Angie and I do want to maintain a friendship but as of now both have stepped away from 1901. -Josh

False Disney Revivals Killed And Ruined CGI And My Age 3-Present Year Old Childhood To Adulthood

[@havenspringer]

To me the Renaissance period started with the little mermaid and ended with lilo and stitch and the revival era started with Tangled

[@ModernMouse]

Most people cut it at Tarzan because there are a few films that did poorly prior to Lilo and Stitch, but it does make that film an outlier by itself otherwise. I also think many people consider Tangled the start of the Revival. It was computer animated and finally made some big money for the company again. I can see it.

[@TheSonicBros1]

can I say first

[@ModernMouse]

You definitely can!

[@davidconway1905]

princes & the frog was not part off the revival era it came from war time ERA MOSTLY

[@davidconway1905]

it might come from dark age,s two, black gauldron era

[@garrettgiauque9945]

Disney Revivals Are Bad, I Hate Them All They're All The Worst Disney Films That Can't Bring The Beginning Age Here In Ruins, And Expanse It And Feather And Make Things Life Horrible And Ruining CGI For Wrong Purposes. That We Can't Fight The Devil Or Do Anything But Nothing But Shit. Disney Has To Delete Those Bad Films In 2004-Present Including Remaking Nemo And Remaking Brother Bear So It Can Have Villain Death, And That We Don't Want Old, Classic, Stuff That We All Are Done About. That No One Loves Revivals And The Mid-Late Post-Renaissance In Their Childhood That Wasted Their Fun And Won't Be Healthy For Their Successes

[@Rita1984]

It’s just awful… anything after 1999 from disney is just a dumpster fire.

[@garrettgiauque9945]

Disney Revivals Are A Depressing Films That No One Cares About, Loves Or Even Wants About In Their Fiction. But Anime And Garrett's Films That I'm Only Into, Not The Disney Revivals I Hate Them All, I'm Not Interested On Stupid Things, Only Dead Serious Action Like Anime In Disney I Want To See

[@garrettgiauque9945]

I Hate Disney Revivals I Want Anime In Disney Not Pinks(Mid-Post Renaissance And Revivals) I Want This To "STOP" Right Now!

[@garrettgiauque9945]

Disney Revivals Is A Bad Era, Because I Hate It And They Ruined My Childhood Forever

[@ModernMouse]

Why do you feel it ruined your childhood? Why would the impact of these movies hurt the rest of them?

[@garrettgiauque9945]

Why? "WHY?" You ask, Because it's Terrible In My Opinion, It's Not Epic Like Anime That HAs Cool Genres, Epic Action Badass Fighitng Evil Killing Evil And Saving Folks From The Devil, Having Cool Abilities Like Pokemon And other Epic Anime That Should Be Disney SO That They Have A Better Allie, Friend Companion, Family, Team, Alliance, Ability Powers I Want To See. What I Don't Want Singing, Dancing, Crying, Whining, Stupid Acting, Making CGI Look Bad And Terrible. And That We Don't Want Old Cultures That We've Seen In The Past Disney Movies, We want Something New Badass Cool Like My Films That You'll See and Anime. None Of That Stuff For Our Heroes. We Can't Do anything With That Miserable Things That Should Not Impact My Childhood, Tell Them To Remake Nemo, Brother Bear(With Real Villain Death In It), And Get Rid of Those Revivals, Fans Are Gonna Riot, Protest You, And That They Have Different Freedom They Had After Watching The Beginning Age, Like Anime Cause That's Good In The Uncalled Period(The Time When I Saw Monsters Inc(2001)And Through Present Like Pokemon Not Again See Fairytale No That's Finished, Done, Complete, Over, For Disney Fans who Loved Disney And Want No Lies, No Dictations, No Deceit. Now Do Epic Genres, Adventures That Were In And Please Don't Say Anything That Hurts My Feelings That's How I Suffered With False School And My Mom, And Other Mean Adults.

[@ModernMouse]

Disney films have always had dancing and singing. The only thing that changed from previous eras is the move to computer animation. I understand the desire for more hand drawn animation, but Disney's entire brand is built on classic fairytale musicals. They make the most money on princesses singing and dancing. They may not be your favorite, but I'd hope they wouldn't ruin your childhood or your life. There is a ton of other animation out there for you.

[@garrettgiauque9945]

In My Point Of View Disney Doesn't Do That Anymore In The Future, We Now Are In. A War With The Devil(Satan)And His Servants, Followers(Villains) And Anime Villains) That We Fight And Destroy That Wants To Hurt The Animacron folks(Sorry To Say That, But That's Just How I Express My Experience). To Me I Have My Own Opinion And That Is Disney Being Epic With New Legendary Animated Films. Singing And Dancing, Is Only A Beginning Age's Thing Not In Today, "NO", Real Disney Doesn't Do That Anymore, It Agrees On Stopping, Fighting, Destroying The Enemy After I Watch Bambi, And Fantasia 2000 In My World Of The Beginning Age Before Epic Begun(Like Anime And Other Epic Films) Sorry To Say That But It's True That's Just How I Express My Feelings And Thing Of Who I Am

[@garrettgiauque9945]

Theres Nothing I Want In Revivals I Don't Trust, What I Only Trust Is Anime, Epic Action Films, And Garrett's New (Not Post Renaissance(Experimental) & Revivals No But Epic Garrett's Disney Films You''ll See That Will Change Everything Especially Disney)To Go With The Epic Adventures It Is, Cause I Am Only Special With Disney, I Don't Go To other Films That's Not Disney Like Warner Bros, Dreamworks And Whatever Is Not Disney That Gets All The Fun And Not Disney In Me, And Plus I Don't Want To Be The Prey Of The Enemy Like Back Then In My Scary Childhood Golden And Dark Times In Layton UT When I Was 2 Years Old You Don't Want To Know
