The VERY MOST Messed Up Origins™ Tier List! | Disney Explained - Jon Solo

[@JonSolo]

Just to clarify: I'm VERY aware that both Anastasia and Thumbelina were not made by Disney. I even say that in my videos about them! Disney owns them now though and both can be watched on Disney+ (you're welcome) so that's why they're on this list. Now either stop commenting the same thing as a hundred other people or I'll report you to the Bolsheviks. Also, I made a mistake in saying Rapunzel was blind - it was actually the prince! So I guess my joke about pooping out a baby doesn't work anymore but I stand by my rating.

Honestly about the Mulan one, I just count the very very first original story which was The Ballad of Hua Mulan. That story is quick, but it’s actually great and quite wholesome, with Mulan reuniting at the end with her family and her soldier friends only realizing she’s a woman after everything is ended. The messed up versions were all romances people tried to write based on the ballad, but adding a LOT more details, more intrigue, more characters, and sometimes changing the bases of the ballad, like the happy ending.

I'm glad that you're starting to return to Disney again. I know it's kind of tough because you're running out of Disney movies to uncover. I'm still really curious on what lady in the tramp was when it was first published. So, you know, just a recommendation for a future idea for Disney.

[@JonSolo]

I actually have a solid amount of Disney content left to cover but a lot of them are biiiig projects like The Black Cauldron, Mary Poppins, Robin Hood, etc. It is a bummer that I’ve already covered a lot of the “main” ones but I honestly think several of them are worth revisiting and improving someday.

[@Chefelicole]

@@JonSolo are you going to do a video on Mary poppins , etc ?

[@sorcerersapprentice]

I really think you should revisit Beauty and the Beast again sometime. The one you reviewed was the abridged version. The full version, while not as messed up as some of the other entries, has some creepy and just bizarre elements that weren't present in the other. Like Belle and the Beast being cousins, the Beast being cursed because he turned down his elderly nanny who had the hots for him or all of the parrot and monkey butlers.

I looked up how long dogs take to digest food. Humans take approximately 6 to 8 hours. Dogs vary between age and breed, but the typical range is between 8 and 10 hours. So as long as the wolf is eaten at least 10 hours after its meal, there's no cannibalism.

[@shanayazaveri2620]

​@@starrsmith3810 Eh...I don't know about Eric, but I'll agree with all the rest. So the 90s were when Disney princes began to more consistently have personalities. Part of it could be that they also had much more involvement in their respective films than princes usually did prior. Cinderella's prince was more a MacGuffin than anything up until his role at the end, but Beast and the frog were central to Beauty and the Beast and The Princess and the Frog, and the others were prominent in their films too.

I think Hunchback should be higher in the S tier. Hanging and dying of starvation seems worse than a mermaid having to do good deeds for 300 years.

[@Black-Swan-007]

Ok but did you miss the part where every step the mermaid took was like walking on glass but she did it with a smile in order to please her Prince who then married another girl? Then when given the choice to kill him and return to the sea she killed herself? Seems pretty brutal to me.

[@Ray_Vun]

the little mermaid had her tongue cut out, was bleeding profusely with each step, the prince falls in love and goes to marry another woman, so in order to prevent her from turning to sea foam upon dying, her sisters shave their heads to sell their hair to the sea witch, and then give the mermaid a dagger. if she kills the prince with the dagger, she'll live. she doesn't want to ruin his and his wife's happiness, so she refuses and jumps into the ocean, still in human form, to kill herself, only then to turn into a air spirit and being told she'll be granted a soul if she spends the next 3 centuries helping out humans. basically none of that made it to the disney movie. the hunchback was a severally deformed person who was treated like an aberration in both the original story and the disney movie. sure disney didn't display the more gruesome aspects, but it still made sure to display the fact that this physically deformed man was seen as a monster

[@MovieEnforcer]

He said it would be S tier, but given that Disney adaptation was incredibly dark for Disney unlike the Little Mermaid. Which is why it was in A tier.

11:38 IMHO, "The Fox and the Hound" is the most "cleaned up" Disney film except for "Hercules". Despite the fact that it was probably Disney's darkest movie during the 55 years between the "Night on Bald Mountain" scene from "Fantasia" and "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", the movie was pure sunshine and sparkles compared to the novel it was based on. I discovered the novel at the age of 11, and found it both traumatizing and impossible to put down, as it is a gripping, brilliantly written lament for the beauty of the countryside taken over by expanding urban sprawl, destroying the lives of Tod, Copper, and Copper's master (unnamed in the book, named "Amos Slade" in the movie).

Hey Jon, concerning the ORIGINAL Story of the Snow Queen,... I am 100% of the mind that C.S. Lewis ALSO Interpolated The Snow Queen Story into the core of his Most Popular Novel Work, The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe! As the evil Queen in the story went after and "preyed" upon the most vulnerable child of the siblings, Edmond. And The Original Snow Queen and her Fairy tale Elements were very prevalent in the Book and movie versions of the Original Story. Although, a person who had NEVER read the Original Snow Queen Fairy Tale, would not instantly recognize the Fairy tale references. Though also, as Lewis was Catholic in his upbringing, He also cleverly chose his novel Elements Very well, notably that King Aslan the Lion is representative of The Figure of Christ, and The ICE Queen, is shown as being Cold, and Devoid of feelings and only shown to be selfish and self Serving (ie: representative as Evil, thereby a "Witch" that during the time and atmosphere of the time period that anything and anyONE of the time era that was not seen as Normal (according to society 'norms', was considered out of place--and therefore, EVIL; And then there is the "Wardrobe," which can clearly be viewed theologically as the "hidden" doorway - which however it is discovered, opens to the worlds beyond our own mortal "real" world (or as Tolkien would call it, our "Middle Earth,") that allows us to learn that there are Hidden Parallel WORLDS that co-exist with OURS, But most are "Sleeping" (unaware) of them until GOD deems us ready to be "awakened" to the Facts to learn of the Upper Spiritual Plane of Existence, and a "Hellish" Lower Spiritual "Pits of HellFire" world of Darkness. And these are represented as Aslan the Lion KING being Jesus Christ, the Risen King of all, remember when the ICE queen killed him and then he was "resurrected" on the STONE Table? When Christ was resurrected, it took the 2 Marys to "WITNESS" Him being Re-born (ie: Susan and Lucy), while the great STONE (Stone table) was rolled away from the great entrance to the Cave, from where Christ was seen to exit, full of life once again. Then The Witch (seen as a follower and consort (by the Earliest Puritans of The Old Country they were traveling away from.- of the Devil, And the Wardrobe being the "Gateway" used by the "Children into Adulthood" to be given "Spiritual awareness" that Other Worlds exist outside of the one "Reality" that all mortals Live in and on.

There are plenty of reasons to dislike Songs of the South, and plenty of harms done by and to the people involved in its origins. However, cultural appropriation isn't one of them. There is nothing hateful or harmful about borrowing aspects of another culture. People do it because they appreciate or are interested in those cultures. If you think I'm wrong, show me an incident of someone being legitimately harmed by appropriation because in my experience either the harm didn't happen, or the example wasn't of appropriation at all, but was malicious for some completely unrelated reason.
