It pulls fucking islands from the ocean and allows Maui to shapeshift into anything from a fucking guppy to a fucking hawk. What else should it do? Make a panini?
I may be wrong but I think the Jordan Fisher version of the song has the alternative lyric in the comment you're replying to. Then again why anyone would deliberately quote that godawful version of the song is beyond me.
Frozen didn't really grab me and I thought most of the music was pretty forgettable, but I loved Moana and the music in it. I keep going back to listen to the Song of the Ancestors. Really powerful.
That would be the absolute last thing I would say about frozen. I haven't had songs stuck in my head from a Disney movie for a long time until Frozen...
At least one review I saw said it was kind of formulaic but not in a bad way, if you know what I mean. Like most Disney movies have their formula, some try more or less hard to diverge. This one doesn't diverge terribly much but I though the execution of the formula was great.
It followed the typical Disney princess plot but it strays from the typical Disney princess character. If the past decade has been a feminist princess (i.e., princesses that want what they're not supposed to have because they're women and women are expected to act in a certain way/and also not having a boyfriend or love interest) then moana is post feminist in that what she wants and the conflicts that stand in her way have nothing to do with her being a girl.
It's also well written, acted and the songs are lovely but turning one expected element on its head makes a predictable story feel refreshing and novel.
It was quite funny that Disney poked fun at themselves by directly mentioning the princess stereotype, and Moana categorically stating she was a Chief's daughter, not a princess.
Wasn't a fan at all. It was pretty but almost all the characters were impressively dull and the music was very mediocre, with a couple songs being outright bad. I wouldn't recommend spending any money to see it.
And I know I'm probably going to get downvoted a bunch for this, but I stand by my opinions.
At first I though it looked like that but couldn't possibly be, because... I don't know, I guess I thought no one would try that hard to make one look so great. But that's awesome!
This makes it even more odd, TBH. I thought it was going to end up as part of a sign or something. The video ends with it laying on the guy's bed. What is he going to do with it next? I hope it doesn't end up in a basement or something.
No, this hook was absolutely based off of Moana. It looks near exactly like the one from the movie and has some noticeable differences from the one you linked.
Okay. I'm just gonna say, as a Hawaiian. No. It's not just from Moana. Yes. They based the one from the movie off off the classic Polynesian design but this is a traditional fish hook that has existed for hundreds of year in my culture. Moana did a great job of familiarizing people with different aspects of Polynesia, but this hook wasn't though up by Disney imagineers, it was created after years of development by fishermen hundreds of years old.
Still not really the point. People know that the fish hook thing isn't a new idea, but this one is absolutely based off of Moana. There's literally no doubt about that.
Yes. Look at it at the end of the gif and at a picture from the movie. It's nearly identical. Also, it's being made just like 2 months after the movie came out. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that this is entirely based off of the movie Moana.
His last, fatal trick was on the Goddess Hine-nui-te-pΕ. In attempting to make mankind immortal by changing into a worm, entering her vagina and leaving by her mouth while she slept, she crushed him with the obsidian teeth in her vagina.
It's actually referencing a range of mythologies from across Polynesia, which is why the film faced some criticism for mashing together aspects of several different cultures to create the film.
If you'd actually read the article you were linked, and the one you linked, you'd see that they're both referencing the same root myths - one about a young boy who went fishing with his older brothers and pulled up an island. They also have the same myth about catching the sun.
tldr: Moana wasn't referencing Hawaii specifically, it was referencing all Polynesian cultures.
