Fun fact: The Atlantis dvd sequel was made because they wanted to make a show that fell through, so they stitched together some of the episodes they had and made a bad movie. Great video as always Athena.

Both Pocahontas movies make me so fucking pissed because she was a goddamn CHILD who was KIDNAPPED from her people, raped and died young. She was kidnapped at age 12, gave birth at 17, and was literally only 20 years old at the time of her death. She was viewed as an object, oddity and “civilized savage” after being dragged away from her people, and now her actual history has been widely erased and misremembered because Disney decided to make her into one of their “princesses”. Her name wasn’t even Pocahontas, it was Matoaka, and her tribe still exists to this day. Like for fucks sake, she was a real person, but now so many people just view her as an “aesthetic” fictional character. (would like to note this is in no way a criticism of you or your video, since you literally talk about how awful the second movie is, this is fully a criticism of Disney as a whole)

[@Kh-bs7mg]

I knew that Didney Pocahontas was bad, but I didnt know the real world history was that bad! Jesus, it's something that should have never happened. I don't know what Disney was thinking, or smoking at that time.

@@Kh-bs7mg That's why Pocahontas won't be remade. The people in charge realize how messed up it is.

[@DeathGripsIsOffline696]

Pocahontas ISN'T Matoaka though, she's most likely loosely based off of her or a story by natives. All of the Princess are based off of stories and loosely from real people. Don't get me wrong its still messed up taking inspiration of a culture and then desecrating it. Since you seem to not like the spread of misinformation, I wanted to make this comment.

[@simritagop]

Actually Disney didn't make up the version they showed. The real John Smith wrote an autobigraphy which was basically fanfiction where he was the hero and all the women were into him and he aged up Pocahontas for it. That's the version that was well known for a long time. Not excusing Disney though since the real story had come out by this time.

[@MoodyMickey]

Pocahontas was one of my favorite Disney princesses at one point because I loved how close she was with nature, but after learning about the actual history I stopped liking the Disney princess one. I still like the songs from the movie tho

See, the similarity of storyline didn't bother me, mostly because it shows the things that Madelaine and Quasi have in common. To me, it makes good story sense to go ahead and prime the audience for their ending up together by showing where they're similar.

[@winterwonderland1491]

The *only* Disney Princess to have a child! Also, Melody is voiced by Tara Strong, so that fucking rocks.

[@haileybalmer9722]

Fun Fact: 101 Dalmatians is a book, and it has a sequel. The Disney Sequel is not based on the book sequel because the book sequel is freaking bugnuts. It's called The Starlight Barking, and to make a long story short, all the dogs discover that everyone except for dogs is in a coma now, and dogs can communicate telepathically and fly. You might be saying, wait, no, don't make that story short, I need context to make that make sense! I'm sorry to say that It would not help. Anyway, the alien dogs come...

[@hydrokineticpowerhouse]

I don’t think Kiara was boring her version of the story just wasn’t as interesting as Kovu’s. When you look at it they were two side of the same coin Kovu just had higher stakes because if he failed he was either dead or alone Kiara’s highest risk was being under guard for the rest of her life which the movie showed she could easily slip away from.

Scamp’s Adventure is a great movie. It does an amazing job of returning the magic that the original brought to fans. Sure it has its problems but it shouldn’t be hated upon. A third movie could’ve easily fixed the issues and complaints fans had. But nothing else came except a disappointing remake of the first movie. I’m a huge fan of the franchise and I did a fanfic story for a third movie. I have a script. I want it to be a fan film one day. To return the magic that was lost due to Disney abandoning the franchise.

[@AthenaPOfficial]

Hunchback of Notre Dame both movies were absolute masterpieces I don’t know how to explain it no other Disney movie comes close besides and only besides Prince Of Egypt (I’m actually not sure if that’s a Disney movie but it’s life changing)

[@aniflowers1998]

I think little mermaid 2 works so well exactly BECOUSE it's "the same story as the first one". Becouse it's not the exact same. It's mirrored. The entire story is a mirror piece to the first movie, which works perfectly becouse the story is all about someone following in someone elses footsteps unintentionaly. Melody, who follows both Ariel and Erics footsteps in beeing adventurous and feeling drawn to somewhere else. Ariel follows her fathers footsteps, unintentionaly repeating his mistakes in parenting. Morgans want's so desperately to stand apart from Ursula, but resorts to following her footsteps going so far as using URSULAS magic. And all the while, non of the characters feel like they are stagnant or reverted in their development. Who they are as a character, or who they became with characters like Ariel, makes 100% sense for them! (If you can't tell, I love that movie xD)

[@fakeemail6815]

I'm a little offended that Cinderella 3 isn't at the very top because it is PEAK cinema imo. I very rarely get as hyped about things as I did when I was younger but cinderella 3 is so damn good even years later

[@thejester4594]

yup

[@kristinahuchison2511]

No it wasn’t. Ignoring how grievously inaccurate the first was, this one was only 2% more accurate to the actual story of Pocahontas. Granted Pocahontas should never have been made, but it infuriated me so much the sequel decided to be a grain of salt more accurate after how much criticism the original movie got. She was FORCED to marry John Rolfe and had a son with him before even going to London, let alone reuniting with John Smith. They don’t mention her English name, conversion to Christianity or she wasn’t there for political reasons, plus John Rolfe wasn’t a very good person. The worst part was she unfortunately died in her 20s in England and her body is actually buried in Glasgow Cemetery I believe. Plus a lot of parts that were supposed to reflect how England was at the time was super inaccurate, especially Pocahontas’s English dress.

[@terrahatvol7960]

Maybe I’m desensitized from watching it so much as a kid, but Little Mermaid II was probably “surprisingly good” for me. I also wouldn’t put Mulan II that high cuz as a kid I didn’t like that Mushu was being a selfish jerk and as an adult, is even more inaccurate in culture. But the music was amazing that’s for sure.

In my opinion, Kiara is not the main character of Lion King 2. The two main characters are Simba and Kovu. The story is about their distrust, rivalry, and eventual friendship. Kiara's only role was to bring them together in order to unite the lion prides. I mean, just think about it. Kiara was always demanding her freedom, which often placed her near Kovu. She's a literal plot device. It's not her story tho, so that's fine to me.

I remember in 2020 me and my brother decided to watch all the Disney Princess movies, including the sequels, and we had a literal blast. We got through all of them in about 4 days (it was literally back to back) and it was weird revisiting stories that I ADORED as a kid and finding that they weren't as good as I remembered and ones I remembered hating we're some of my favorites. My favorite OG princess movies were a tie between Cinderella and Moana with Snow White close behind (Idk why but that movie was so funny to me??? And Snow White is such a smartass, I love her!) and my brothers favorite was Sleeping Beauty. We both agreed that he hated Beauty and the Beast the most. It was just so boring and we couldn't get ourselves to care about the beast AT ALL and at some point we stopped caring about Belle too. My favorite sequel was Cinderella 3 and my brother was really tied with Cinderella 3, The Little Mermaid 3, Mulan 2 and Aladdin 3. I love your videos!

The fact you put Mulan 2, which is one of the biggest examples of Character Assassination I've ever seen, anywhere above "Ehhh no thanks" is criminal. In fact, "Assassination" is too good a word, it was character GENOCIDE for how they butcher EVERYONE except Chien Po. Also, "Kiara had no flaws" WHAT HUH?! THE FIRST 2/3rds OF THE MOVIE IS HER SCREWING THINGS UP BECAUSE OF HER FLAWS!? Aside from those two issues, overall enjoyed the video. Now to fade back into obscurity where I may be seen again on a random comment in the future

[@DraconasTenZHG]

Mulan 2 really shits on the characters. The story didn't really make sense either. But another thing I really hated is how *Spoilerzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz* Shang "dies" and the movie says "he didn't die" literally not even 1 minute after his super emotional "death" + funeral scene. I get it would be super unsatisfying if he died AFTER Mushu made them hate each other but imagine if... eg Mufasa stood up after the movie tried its best to become emotional. Bro what was that for?! If you wanna make a fakeout death, don't make the "death" scene so dramatic. It won't work if you watch it for the second time.

[@SusannahMurphine98]

Lion King II was one of my favorites in my younger days as well, especially for the music. "My Lullaby" slaps, and no one can change my mind on that, and "Love Will Find a Way" still gets me a little choked up. However, I definitely see what you mean about Kiara being a bit boring. Honestly, it's the same problem I have with Romeo and Juliet. I had a soft spot for Hunchback II growing up, but the animation quality took a huuuuuuuuge downturn from the original (which, you know, makes sense with the smaller budget). I think the ones that held up best for me were Lady and the Tramp II and Little Mermaid II. ... Dangit, now I wanna watch Little Mermaid II again.

As a kid I thought Bambi was eh but now I watched both movies back to back and I think 1 is alright while 2 is goat. This sequel was a huge upgrade imo. I didn't like how the first movie was very short and also very slow at the same time. In Bambi 2 there's stuff happening constantly and Bambi is more of a character too. I expected it was going to be another kinda mid cashgrab but I would out it in S tier actually. It's both great and a big step up from the original which normally doesn't happen.

I was just thinking about Return of Jafar. I remember watching it as a kid, and Iago goes to the market and is singing his "I Want" song to them, but as a kid, I was like... who are these animals? Wait, why is there an elephant? Are these the animals that were abandoned in Agrabah after Prince Ali's big entrance in the first movie? It's always great to go back and rewatch things you misinterpreted as a kid and realize that you had some seriously dark thoughts.

Lol I'm not the only one who likes the princesses in Mulan 2! I liked that movie for that reason ^^ I didn't like Mushu, like someone could just give me the story of the princesses and I'd be happy. Lion king 2 is my favorite, of course, but I'm satisfied with it being on top of Surprisingly good :)

Athena:I liked The Hunchback of Notre Dom 2 Me:Wait till you watch the original and figure out that it doesn't continue the same stoyline

[@DazzlingNishi]

I have a distant memory of watching Pocahotas II, and all I really remember is her in the Brittain dress

[@Bimbophication]

I could listen to you talking about shitty Disney movies for hours, also this list 100% correct

[@AthenaPOfficial]

Thank you so so much 🥲 I had a lot of fun with this one

[@alekthecool123]

[@mk-aka-morgan8386]

I used to LOVE a lot of these movies- I'm so embarrassed of child me 😬

[@ballerinafromtheblock]

THANK YOU SCAMPS ADVENTURE IS SO ICONIC I had never even seen the original lady and the trump when I saw that and I REMEBER loving it

[@Jimmyboygohome]

I had forgotten some of these hidden gems. I agree with all your rankings

[@larslionheart]

I must have blocked out the memory of Pocahontas 2 out of sheer trauma

[@rhiley5097]

cinderella 3 not being in the top tier made my jaw drop. SHE WAS ROBBED!!!

[@WolfgangXP65-67]

Worse, putting MULAN II in top tier 😂😭

[@charlietbarnes4842]

Pocahontas is based on her real life she did marry the tobacco guy but died at 21 and never seeing her home again x

[@AthenaPOfficial]

That is so sad! Why did they think her story would be good for Disney???

[@cam_like_ham]

6:35 TO EAT A WHOLE CAKE WITH FROSTING

[@wickettin6858]

you forgot the fox and the hound 2 😢😢 STILL HAPPY ABT WHERE U PUT LADY AND THE TRAMP 2 THO 😊😊

[@mariereincarnate]

SOMEONE ELSE WHO APPRECIATES LADY & THE TRAMP 2 YESSSSS

[@RazorRevenge]

You REALLY should have watched The Hunchback Of Notre Dame before watching the sequel because the first one really is superior in every way. The music, the animation, it's all beautiful. The Sanctuary/Burning of Paris scene is *chef's kiss. Don't know if you're into Broadway musicals but I would HIGHLY recommend the stage version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It's here on youtube if you wanna watch it. It's so good, and I have no problem saying it is the better Victor Hugo musical *cough cough * Les Mis *cough Yeah....I go hard for this story, haha

[@grittybird]

you nailed this

[@Cedarzz]

omg finally someone who loves lady and the tramp 2 😭 a lot of people dislike it just bc Disney Sequel but like it's SO GOOD??? Scamps run away song is literally one of my favorite Disney songs and don't even get me started on the designs in this movie bc augh this movie is such a gem ty for reviewing it

[@DraconasTenZHG]

I think the og was better but this one was great too. I would say S tier among DvD sequels and high B / low A as a Disney movie. Also Angel is cute.

[@hoaxghost3268]

As a kid I liked The little Mermaid 2 so much more than the first movie cause its way more wish fulfillment to go from human to mermaid. I wanted to be like Melody sooo bad

[@silverdeer603]

The piano from Beauty and the Beast 2 looks like Michael Jackson in human form-

[@ChocolateisIsNice]

I disagree with you on Finding Dory. I thought it was great & I love how it portrays anxiety in such a realistic way.

[@DraconasTenZHG]

I liked it more than Finding Nemo and totally not because sea otters are there.

[@sparkle6772]

binging ur vids love u girl

[@nateroo1486]

Eh, Mulan 2 is an "ehhh no thanks" for me. Not god awful but boring, over animated, they ruined my boys Mushu and Shang, and Mulan essentially dooms China to die by the end lol.

[@nathanrivadulla3315]

THE LITTLE MERMAID PREQUAL SLAYS

[@mirandawolfe2865]

The sequel I watched the most and I think the only one I've seen is Beauty and The Beasts, and I would rewatch it over and over again as a child. The organ/piano guy really scared me as a kid.

[@jademirror]

I liked the Aladdin one for one thing; The thieves songs.

[@normanclatcher]

(we're in)

[@spookyles7483]

I agree with all of this 100% I love ALL of movies in the top and second category but no one I know watched any of them 😭. I had them all on dvd and watched them a thousand times probably lol

[@alyh3721]

We watched Scamp's Adventure so many times as a kid and it was pretty great!

[@the-birbo]

I didn't realize Return of Jafar was a straight to video sequel until like 2016 and I kind of forgot it existed until now. When I was a kid it was just part of the first movie because I would always watch them together, and at one point I only had Return to Jafar and I kind of thought I imagined the first one every time I would watch it and be like "I swear I thought this was about something else"

[@larisamk]

If you make a video like this again but with the sequel shows like the tangled series, or the lion guard, I AM GONNA LOVE U SO MUCH

[@hannahmiller6844]

"Three different breeds of himbo." I can't!

[@austinmccormick8952]

The song is such a bop, especially with the (Hippo pops out of water)He asked for trouble the moment he came

[@Doddelmations.]

I love Mulan 2 and i wanna be like other girls is a bop I freaking love that song

[@bluejaythegay]

[@cookiesnbubbles]
