The title of a king was bestowed on four of my brothers, leaving me the prince. So, when i will be rid of you and your sister, i will be come the king and bring summer back to Erendale." Hans: "What?! But-but- i thought you loved me." Hans: "Love you?" Hans starts histericlly laughing wich it triggers the song.

Wtf, I grew up with this, without knowing that this was a bootleg. I've never watched the real movie, but always preferred this one, due to nostalgia and the good music

[@sunnywinters2312]

[@sophieauguste1786]

It feels like the screenwriters and the music department worked separately - in the movie he states that he is going to have Anastasia executed, but sings about marrying her to get money instead.

[@Omarsh1692]

Also ... has anyone noticed how this movie and the broadway musical share the exact same plot? replacing Rasputin with a communist guy who wants to ends his father's job...

+DigbyTheGoat It really doesn't.

[@xylopiano3]

+Purplelady0790 In my opinion, the problem is that the visuals aren't extravagant enough, especially for this very pompous-sounding song. The pointy teeth is the only visually interesting part. Other than that, he's just standing in a dark room.

+Xylo Piano Also, what the heck is he doing at 0:01? I understand that the shifty eyes are to make him look sneaky, but what's he doing with his hands?

So this is what I missed out on through my childhood?? Princesses, Russians, and guns all together in one movie That's all I've ever wanted

It's clear that the people making this movie weren't even on the same wavelength the music implies he's marrying into the royal family but the actual written plot implies he's going to have her hanged

[@octochan2396]

Alright is it a little strange how: Anistasia (Secret of Anistasia; 1997): Readhead who falls in love with bad guy Anna (Frozen; 2013): Readhead who falls in love with bad guy Paul (Secret of Anistasia; 1997): Evil guy who fakes love to get power Hans (Frozen; 2013): Evil guy who fakes love to get power I'm just saying........

[@flashandsoarcreations8770]

Would Disney really stoop so low as to rip off a mockbuster?

or even better! Both name Anna...and set in same era too..

[@emmaloctober6001]

Actually, most or all of Disney’s movies that feature a princess are based on a true story or an old tale from a long time ago. They did not rip of this movie, they created an adaptation of an old tale. Look it up, you might find smthn intriguing

[@beaniedrawz]

Oh my god I remember watching this movie again and again for hours when I was a child , not knowing it’s a bootleg version but still I prefer this version and I love it so much I even went out of my way at 24 yeas old to purchase a dvd copy since I no longer own my vhs one. Omg the nostalgia. I remember having the biggest crush on prince Paul ??? And I still DO 💁🙈❤️

The song is fantastic but the stupid animation has no dynamic or emotion

[@eragonsbabe]

Okay but who else grew up on this ? I remember watching this at my grandmas house as a child so many times. Who thought this was kid movie appropriate. Now watching as an adult just… what the hell man.

[@milesalton3695]

I can't help but think this should have been Hans's villain song from Frozen. It just WORKS. Disney would have made it less corny, but just imagine this slowed down and more menacing, maybe with some callback melody to "love is an open door" thrown in.

For as bad as this ripoff was (Not as bad as Golden Film's Hunchback but still pretty bad.) the songs were surprisingly good! Especially this one!

[@yeehaa1014]

I know right. Some rip offs have amazing music

[@bellparry3577]

It's the animation. Like seriously, there is lack of emotion on Anastasia's face and you could have made the prince with more visuals, honestly, what's wrong with exaggeration, huh? You could have had the prince turn into into a snake during "charming as a rattlesnake". That would've been super cool and would kinda pay up for being a shameless Don Bluth ripoff

[@averylindstrom3483]

I grew up on this collection and the prince collection so i feel like im biased when i say i like this one better lol 😆

[@Fabled_Artwork]

Between the animators and the musicians you can see who cared more about their jobs lmao

[@adamel-yousseph4272]

Some people call this a ripoff but it was the 1st Anastasia film I ever saw as a kid, and I love it! The songs are so great and catchy that this song in particular started playing in my mind as I'm preparing for an exam😁. Anyways, once I'm done with it I'll finally check out the Fox Animation Studios' version for the first time in me life.(I hope the songs will be good)
