This art just looks bad, some of the aislop posters have been better than this.
Anyways, it seems like the movie is setting up the MC to learn that granting every single wish is a bad idea.
You make this post every fricking thread, get a life moronic autist
the leaked book versions have shown that she doesn't learn that
Wow, another protagonist whose mistakes are praised by the narrative instead of being punished for them. Disney, what have you done?
Maybe she's just lucky to live in a country where nobody's wishes or interests conflicts with anyone else's. A 100% harmonious collective completely free of discord or crimes of passion.
I’m getting real tired of animated movies slapping actor’s names on the poster. Like does anyone give a shit who voices who? They don’t do it for voice actors cause they’re not worth the time to shove in a poster.
I remember the second Sonic movie had some drama because they made individual posters for Knuckles and Robotnik, but Tails didn't get one at first as he just has his video game voice actor instead of a big name celebrity. They eventually gave in to online backlash and gave Colleen O'Shaughnessey a poster in the end too, but it took a lot of arm twisting.
Hi, anti-AI schizo. How's it goin'?
From the context I assumed it was AI kek.
>king just randomly says "ay dios mio" and this is never explained.
To be fair, if an English-speaking movie for kids and young adults is full of subtitles for all the Spanish the characters are supposed to be speaking, kids and young adults wouldn't watch it.
Shows and movies only do the "sudden outcry in native language" thing to help remind you that they're not American.
I wish they'd still do more subtitled movies because most people these days are fricked from texting and social media, and sperg out if they have to read more than three lines of text per conversation.
I think it looks real cool
I miss him
Rest in peace, you sweet angel.
If every wish was granted there would be no life left in the universe as a result
Sad thing is there is potential for something like that in a plot. Bruce Almighty did it when Jim Carey granted everyone's prayers and broke the world. There's a good lesson in there that not everyone can get his or her wish, but that doesn't define you.
Instead we get something else.
8 billion genies, a story about how all 8 billion people in the world get a genie that grants them 1 wish
There's better be some limiters or the earth would literally explode
The genies will often take conveniently conflicting wishes(someone wishes for world peace while another butthole wishes for it to be destroyed) and grant neither because they cancel each other out
Many such cases. And the world becomes a cube, and the world becomes many, and the moon is given life and dies, and the world is restored, and the world is wrecked, and the world is given new nations, and the world has places added and removed and changed and so on.
Very good comic.
Man that was a fun ride. I like that it dealt with what the consequences of that premise would actually look like.
I wish my wish was the only one that worked so that nobody else's wish would work.
But what's your wish...?
That's his wish.
I see you haven't read 8 Billion Genies. The genies discriminate against wishes like that.
Too bad, 50,000 people tried that before you; it's not allowed anyway.
I’m imagining a sort of Cold War scenario where people wait to cast their wish since you can just say you want to be a god or some shit. But someone can wish that you weren’t or that they were more powerful so everyone is holding off or bullshitting saying they already made their wish. Or even buy wishes from other people promising them better lives that their wish could ever bring them, and if that fails just kidnapping people and holding them captive until they give you their wish.
What you describe does sort of happen but not that exactly in 8 billion genies
All of that pretty much happens in 8 Billion Genies. Give or take a little mind control from the villain.
Outright kidnapping doesn't tend to work because, obviously, the person your holding has the ability to wish themselves free at any time. They may not WANT to use their wish to kill you and free themselves, but if you don't give them the choice...
thanks for this suggestion, I just read it, it was fun. Some really moronic decisions by the characters and missing questions by the story itself(it's odd that this story not even once ever explained whether it is possible to wish for more wishes, something that every genie story explores, to set up some ground rules), but in return it gave interesting scenarios that I haven't considered for such a story.(like wish safe-havens)
>thanks for this suggestion, I just read it, it was fun.
Same. Given the attitude of the genies, I bet they'd just tell anyone wishing for more wishes, "Nah bro, doesn't work that way, we said you get ONE".
Fun premise, definitely something to think about. I think they could have been more creative with where they took the story, though. The ending was kinda meh.
Just wish to be the omnipotent god of your own universe separated from all others and the reach of other genies after your wish has been granted.
so we agree, pluralism is moronic and some voices and things like hate speech should be censored?
this is ironic since a white guy is the voice actor for the villain
>It's fine for whitey to voice brown people if the brown people is le evil
fair point but also i really don't think disney or Hollywood actually gives a shit about representation. the voice actress for the new TMNT movie's April isn't obese or butterface. imagine saying you support different body types but then hire some cute girl of normal weight for the voice acting job
Whole reason people become VAs is because they don't look good enough to be LAAs.
Chris Pine is relentlessly handsome
Everyone's already complained about it but it still makes me chuckle that the dramatic introduction to their big egotistical villain just made everyone agree that he made a good point.
I imagine the film itself will show his reasons and logic for which wishes he grants are more arbitrary or sinister, but the trailer did a poor job of showing it.
I would have assumed that it'd be an Bruce Almighty kind of situation where she inadvertently causes a lot of chaos with her "yes to all" approach and learns a valuable lesson along the way.
Then we can throw in the disney twist villain that reveals he was also secretly granting wishes for evil.
Ironically, the best twist this movie could have had is there is no "villain," just two people with beliefs that they both believe equally strongly in, and learning at the climax that maybe there's a little room to give way
>whatshername learns that just indiscriminately granting all wishes leads to disaster and even at best can rob them of the chance to grow as people
>The king realizes he can maybe be a little more liberal about granting wishes and not all of them are necessarily bad for the kingdom.
Yeah, but that's not as catchy as "we are all stardust"
>there is no villain
Indie game "Faith: the Unholy Trinity" is getting some popularity specifically because the villain is an unashamed Satanist fanatic cult leader and is doing it because he is evil.
"Villain made some good points" is fricking lame, deconstructions are lame, just have Lord Fartwad fricking people over and have him take the L at the end of the movie and wallah- Shrek 6.
Ironically Mario movie did this right because no one tried to make bowser out to be misunderstood, he was just an evil dick doing whatever he wanted.
I get what you're saying, but Wish just doesn't lend itself well to the "pure evil villain" archetype, at least not without rewriting the story entirely.
If the thing that makes a villain "bad" is he won't grant your wish, he's not going to come off as much of a villain at all.
But what if he doesn't grant wishes because he wants to keep dangling the hope before people to make them worship him?
seems to suggest as much.
That's exactly the intention, but it doesn't make Magnifico any less weaksauce. He doesn't kill anyone, he doesn't force women to marry him, he doesn't abuse animals, he doesn't kidnap people, he doesn't send monsters after people, he doesn't rewrite anyone's memories, he doesn't steal anything (the wishes are given, not taken), he doesn't make Faustian bargains (the wishes he does grant have no strings attached), I'm not even sure he actually lies (he straight-up tells Asha that most of them won't be granted, at absolute worst it sounds like it's a lie by omission).
You know what he does do? Refuse to grant most wishes. That is the peak of his villainy.
>I wish for a pure evil Disney villain
I can't wait to see how poorly thought out this movie is going to be
You are correct. There is hope for you after all. Now back to your homework, you have to catch the school bus early in the morning.
I just hope he gets some decent porn
This villain is 1% intimidating and 99% sexy wtf is this shit
The designers know that the plot is garbage and are tired that the last movies have been like that so they made him sexy so he would be the only popular character.
I'm looking forward to all the porn of him, Creedo might be the right artist for him, making him get fricked by a young knight.
It would be funny if his doll were the only one that would sell well.
>It would be funny if his doll were the only one that would sell well.
This actually happened with the Barbie movie. Biggest rumors right now is Mattel/WB wanting to give a ken a stand alone movie before a Barbie movie.
https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/1304336-report-barbie-spin-off-movie-focused-on-ken-in-development
It could happen, the Barbie movie was a bigger succeed than expected; the Ken doll sold out and Ryan got nominated for the Oscar, didn't he? Just get a different director and writers.
Alright Cinemaphile, let's come up with a story that's going to be better than what the Hollywood writers could do.
In one of the Barbie movie threads at /toy/, an anon proposed that Ken could be participating in a war in the Max Steel side; so picking up from the movie, Ken is still unhappy and goes to explore how the other male figures live, to see how it is to be a role model for kids, then goes to the real world and meets again the businessmen that advised him, while spending time with them, he realizes all the sacrifice that they do, mainly is about problems with their families.
no fricking way
God I remember when I used to sing this song as a kid, I had so much fun screaming DIEEEEEEEEE when it hit. Good times!
>le Dreamworks face
Why is he so hot?
He's just that powerful
Sims 2 lookin ass
The delicious cold, detached stare. Almost tied with Hans for most attractive villain
That's what he was designed for.
Corporate designed husbando FOTM.
Isn't this getting a series? Live-action/animated, I forget.
>I let you live here for free and I don't even charge you rent.
Isn't that a little redundant?
That's the joke.wav
I'm not laughing
waaaait
the disney princess is brown, right? this guy looks white, so it stands to reaso thats why he is the villain.
But the plot is supposed to be on muslim-occupied Iberian penninsula, isnt it? so the hero is the colonizer and the villain the colonized indigenous people?
Because you have daddy issues.
If I didn’t know better I would think this was Disney answer to Ken from the Barbie movie.
99.99% I roll my eyes at Cinemaphile's contrarian "reinterpretation" of things deemed too progressive... but yeah, this thing looks dumb as frick for demonizing the notion that "not every wish should be granted."
>not every wish should be granted
This is a valid notion, but having one man arbitrarily decide which wishes to grant (even if he wasn't a Disney villain) is also dumb
Said man leads an extremely prosperous kingdom, I’d argue that he knows what he’s doing.
Sounds like sketch logic but trips don't lie
Guess I'm a monarchist now
"One man selectively choosing which wishes to grant based on his own whims and worldviews, and another person demanding all wishes be granted."
You could maybe make a decent story out of it, but not in a Disney movie.
Would it be better if nobody knew who the wish granter was? Seriously, people will hate on anyone and demand more as soon as they have a face.
>one man arbitrarily decide which wishes to grant (even if he wasn't a Disney villain) is also dumb
He's the king, he decides what's good for his kingdom. That's what monarchy used to be.
Who does the grail serve?
Spoilers for the book summarizing the movie
Star gifts Asha a magic wand that grants any wishes she chooses
So even if you had a point, it's not what the movie is saying
Look I'm not gonna defend modern Disney but it's brain dead to shit on this show when we don't even know what the parameters for a wish are in universe. Maybe you can't just wish for a hundred holocausts to happen or infinite money, maybe all the wishes are only allowed to be little personal things that only make your life better and the king is a dick for not answering them.
>NO YOU NEED TO INVESTIGATE EVERY LITTLE DETAIL
Grooming method. By the time somebody does that, they are already deeply invested in the film. Then you can just use abuse methods for having watched it.
It's not about all the little details like in public school, it's about the meaning of the movie. The industry is against meritocracy and upholds things like communism, and that is manifested in this film.
genuinely please take your meds
I'm Genuinely going to bombard people in your industry with messages to scramble up your social life, dumb c**t. Find something better to do than seek to neuter any real man.
How much you want to bet literally everyone will have quirky fun wishes that don't harm anyone and the big mean King was just a bad guy for holding the power back from them.
>he wants another Evergreen
OP you fricking moron. We already know how that goes. One guy in charge of everyone's fate is a disaster waiting to happen. What an awful thread.
What exactly did Evergreen do wrong? I don't remember but I'm pretty sure the plan was fricked up only because of Gunter
He made wish-granting crown only to be used by himself.
>but I'm pretty sure the plan was fricked up only because of Gunter
If Evergreen never fricked with the laws of nature, that wouldn't have happened. You can't blame a stupid animal for doing stupid animal things.
what does that have to do with the giant meteor that was going to destroy the planet?
We can very much blame it tho, the problem wasn't the crown, it was literally everything else, Evergreen treated Gunther like shit, and because of that, he ended up dooming everything.
The crown wasn't meant for Gunther, it was meant for Evergreen, the world was doomed because Gunther got the wish crown instead.
Evergreen, like the other icegays (Patience St Pimm), was an butthole who thought he knew better than everybody else only to end up fricking things up both due to his autism and not working with anyone
>Wants to present an episode of a cartoon as an arbiter of reality
Way to give away that you're a shill
That episode was literally made when the show was taken over by communists as well, who didn't like the idea that Finn was such a successful hero
Is the magic like monkey's paw, or like a witch spell that has a "cost" and needs "sacrifice"?
WARNING POSSIBLE SPOILERS??????
And then theres like a good wish fairy, the represents and helps main charachter with good wishes.
So if villian just twisting the wishes and wish fairy to help himself?
What are chances he's like imortal from wish power, or uses wish power to turn into demon that tmain charachter and group fight in end?
Are we really going for end where theres free unlimited wishes for everyone?
>Disney
I think i've guessed too much.
Will put warning.
No need to guess. Disney published a book revealing what happens in the movie.
post more of the book, anon
Like her key motivation to going against him is because he won't grant her grandfathers wish. Of which we don't know what it is. Also the bullshit end of "were all made of wishing stars" as a workaround.
omg it's just like corl sagayn
The great-grandfather's wish is to "make something inspiring". That's it. He doesn't even need to make a wish to achieve that.
You don't understand there isn't a wish fairy Magnifico is abusing for power
the MC gets handed a magic wand at the end
Because giving a single fallible human control over granting desires with magic is a good thing when it's a brown female
I mean, what's his vision for the kingdom may not necessarily be the best for the populace as a whole. There are a lot of ways that being trapped in someone else's notion of a utopia can go wrong.
I WISH TO BLOW UP!
I MEAN GET BIG
I don't know why they made him so old. Chris Pine's voice does not match his visuals.
Should have made him a wienery prince like the storyboards who has taken over from his dad's role but his ego is ruining it, whilst the Queen (his mother in this scenario) is just turning a blind eye out of love.
that would require the mother killing her son at the end of the story which probably comes off worse than a wife killing her crazy husband (from what we know from the little golden book)
That would have made for a more interesting story where the conflict is less about the issue of having to limit which wishes get granted and more about the issue of displaying the wisdom to appropriately judge which wishes are most deserving of being granted. You need the contrast of the wise older father who’s deeply empathic and is shown to constantly agonize over and struggle with his duty versus the smug butthole son who just grants wishes to whoever kisses his ass the most because he hasn’t yet realized or appreciated the power and responsibility he has. The arc then centers around the protagonist facilitating smug wish-granter’s character growth to become worthy of the responsibility or realizing they can’t be that person and giving the protagonist the responsibility
How about the son only grants wishes he thinks would be fun or interesting? Lets be real, the majority of people would be wishing for money, looks, or health so the wish granter having an arbitrary criteria of novelty would be a unique thing.
This would make for a much better story than a movie this shit deserves. You're talking about getting into the really thought-provoking discussion of what actually makes a wish/prayer worth granting and who is deserving of their wish/prayer being answered. It reminds me of Esmerelda's "God Help the Outcasts" song in Hunchback where you have people praying for wealth, fame, glory, possessive love and lust, and she's just praying for things to be slightly less shit for her and her people. You could make a really deep story about that in this setting and really examine the moral and ethnical dilemma and strain of having to be the person who judges and decides such things and the chaos that happens when someone with poor or immature judgement just lets things go crazy.
Instead we get this steaming pile of garbage where "everyone gets their wish because, like, we're all stardust maaaan"
I'm not sure if I am down with a Disney movie approaching the question of who should have the power to grant wishes. That's getting into religious territory. I'd rather it be something like an observation on the pros and cons of making wishes. Do wishes drive us, or is it by giving up the wish to the whim of the stars that makes people less likely to pursue them?
I kind of feel like Aladdin already had a good plot about wish-making. Aladdin only wished to be a prince to be with Jasmine. Eventually he was outed as not being a prince but the world was changed so then he would be allowed to be with Jasmine regardless of social class. It's one thing to dream big, but we should be focusing on what we really want and use a little introspection to determine that.
>It's another American Disney film where they shove a couple of Spanish phrases into English speaking Hispanic people
Yawwwwwn. Do Hispanic people really speak like that? No! Of course not.
But then you couldn’t have her become a strong independent womyn of color who don’t need no man. You have to think about these things in the business, anon
They already had the moor for that.
Will he be as popular as miguel
Does he have sharp pointy teeth and an ass that looks like this under his cloak?
I’m not sure
That's a decent curve. There's hope.
Wait a minute, that cookie...
Ah, so that's why Magnifico's face looks so familiar
He seems like a huge butthole in the international trailer, so I highly doubt that.
Shut up, chud, don't you know that everyone DESERVES to get what they want without consequence no matter what their desire is? Having a king who grants wishes to his people as long as they make the kingdom prosper overall is literally fascism. Let the stupid fricking farm animals speak, and join a choir. That's not a waste of a wish at all, sweaty, it's quirky and fun.
I wish you were dead.
we already saw that story book and we already know not granting wishes is le bad and everyone deserves the heckin wish (even pedophiles) and so the strong latinx womyn grants everyone their wishes
Asha condones rape. Thanks Disney!
This is what they took from us, bros.
Little girls would go fricking apeshit if the story had Human-Star with Prince Magnifico as the villain.
>Anthropomorphized star
Would have been way more interesting.
do we have concept art of human star? i may draw pics of him
>star is actually asha's grandpa
goddammit
You want to know the real lost potential from this?
Imagine if, instead of a designated villain whose worst crime is saying "no" to a request, we got a creepy shapeshifting rogue star whose wishes always come with a cruel twist
>we don't get an evil queen for a villainous power couple
Absolutely ruined
Just letting the cartoon crew members lurking this thread know that I have absolutely nailed their industry as the villains they are. Magnifico is a hero!
Frick off guy. If I wanted to read your schizo rantings I wouldn't have you ln filter.
Damn I didn’t know Guy had a third Eye
I can have whatever since I'm just a generic guy
Infinity train season 3 is trash
Hollywood went so backward they promote good characters/heroes as villains.
I can't wait to see the absolute non reaction of the queen when her husband is essentially killed
Because her grieving over him would be heresy against the message
I had no idea this was even a film that was coming out until I saw some stickers on the bananas I bought yesterday.
Motherfricker looks like the Wizard from Clash of Clans
I already know Disney has NO faith in this movie since they decided at the last minute to release Once Upon a Studio early.
Wouldn't it make more sense to not release the short so early so it encourages people to watch the movie?
Featurette announcing the grand return of the classic villain, in typical Disney fart-sniffing fashion
Oh god, the comments...
They're really jerking themselves off for a mediocre song. Bad idea to remind the audience of a bunch of better Disney villains to compare him to in the promotional video.
>we wanted to take inspiration from classic Disney villains
>we failed
They seemed to be focused more on the aesthetics than anything else
They didn't even get that right. Elsa has more intense villain vibes than this guy. His features are too soft and conventionally attractive, his clothes too light, and even his movements just seem hammy rather than threatening. Put him in a line up with villains like Jafar, Ursula, Hades, Maleficent, Scar, Cruella, etc, and he looks completely out of place.
A.I. can do better than this.
This shit is straight ass.
Verification not required.
I can buy that an AI wrote the script
>"You are their handsomest, most beloved king"
>"Yes, I am a handsome king"
Little wonder why that trailer's dislike ratio keeps growing
Ain't it weird that browns take precedence in a movie about a european country? Whatever, I'm sick of this shit. I hope this stupid thing flops and I sincerely hope disney crashes and burns.
andulasian women are brown tho
No, they really aren't. You may be confusing them with the disgusting moors that are invading Spain.
well that may be the andulasians shown here
No they aren't. Moors are white, because they're of the north African Berber population.
Well if the dislikes are any indicator then a flop is inbound.
Ain't it weird that instead of putting the story in a brown people land telling untold brown people stories, they decided to just look for a period in history where brown people had a foothold in Europe?
I’ve been wondering what Magnifico’s song kept reminding me of, and I finally found it
?si=_SRnA7WcvkDWMJIV
Does this movie even have a love interest? I'll give Disney credit for at least attempting something different, but no romance plot is going to be a hard sell to most women.
Honestly a magical boy and a human girl would've been cute
This. If they'd kept the cute star boy twink as a love interest, I would have been all over this. As is, I have no interest.
>I'll give Disney credit for at least attempting something different,
They're not trying to be different, they're trying to replicate the past to unsatisfying results.
And no, there doesn't seem to be any romances. No promotional material hints at it and it's not mentioned on the summary book that came out.
One of the mc's friends may have a crush on her that they're keeping a secret, but even so it doesn't seem to matter in the story at all.
>They're not trying to be different, they're trying to replicate the past to unsatisfying results.
>Past successful movies and the princess line had a LI
>Frozen was carried by the song and is lightning in the bottle
well thats stupid.
Apparently the movie isn't even fully rendered despite less than a month to go before premiere.
source?
https://insidethemagic.net/2023/10/wish-barely-rendered-and-unfinished-disney-animator-confirms-zg1/
Well if Inside the Magic said it, then it must be true. They never get anything wrong.
>Grant my wish to extinguish all life, King
Having seen the storybook spoilers and thought about it some more, I suspect the idea is that if you give your wish over to the king to be granted, then it can't come true at all so long as he's keeping it held in his wish vault or whatever. Ergo something is technically being lost when he takes a wish but doesn't grant it. And presumably that's why it's a big deal when he outright destroys the mother's wish, since that probably means it can no longer come true by any means.
It's a little more nuanced than the basic premise of "wish granting king is somehow bad because he's picky". The degree of control the king has over the people's fates is a bit more unsettling. But the problem is largely the same. It's unfortunate that some benign wishes are being rendered impossible to achieve, but by the same token there's no doubt some less noble wishes also being kept contained. As far as we're shown, the kingdom is prosperous and the people are happy, so it seems like it's working out as a net good for society. There's a point to be made about how no one should have so much power over people's fate, but then we're just coming kinda sideways into a debate about control versus freedom.
Ya know, the concept of wishing in disney sure has gone downhill as the years go. And most of it stemmed from wanting more out of life. Some were the miracles that really needed magic while others just needed a little help. But they were still concrete ideas
>Pinocchio
Gepetto must have done a lot of good to get his son and Pinoch died trying to save his pop and was rewarded.
>Cinderella
Worked from childhood to adulthood under an evil b***h so the universe gave her a break and let her go to a party.
But as we got closer to the modern era, things got kinda complicated.
>Little mermaid
Ariel sold her soul to go above her usual world and find something new. She needed help to kill a powerful witch but got her wish.
>Aladdin
Jasmine wanted to do more than be a wedding gift. She helped Aladdin, the catalyst for the genie misshap because he too wanted to be more than a streetrat, and the two got their wish.
>Beauty and the Beast
Bell helped Beast get his wish. She saved him from dying and reminded him of love and humanity so she's the Hero.
There was trial and tribulation despite the hiccup of Ariel, the villain didn't have points and the plots weren't too nebulous or vague.
Wish's catalyst is Asha wanting everyone to have what they wish for, no matter how nebulous that wish is. Its just to broadstrokes and not concrete enough, especially her grandad's wish. The foundation is vapor.
I suppose that's why it feels like it's just a premise to make some sort of pointed commentary about people with power in society, but it doesn't actually seem to have anything to say. Magnifico just turns into Jafar when he feels threatened and gets sealed into a macguffin much the same. Meanwhile the whole wishes thing just loses all its substance with the "We're all made of stardust!" sentiment.
I'm sure you can extract some moral about not blindly entrusting your dreams to someone who isn't necessarily serving your best interest or something, but it all feels vague.
PatF played with the idea of wishing on stars being stupid (Tiana believing you should just work hard and will get rewarded) and how that a little faith helps when things are going wrong and what you do in your own power just isn't enough.
When her dream was threatened to be taken away from her and things were looking down she looked up at the star and hugged that paper to her chest to give the wish a chance, and in that same moment Naveen shows up. Later on, Tiana doesn't pick up from Mama Odie that 'working hard' isn't what she needs. The star is special, hell that firefly dies and essentially reincarnates as a star next to the wishing star.
>Wish's catalyst is Asha wanting everyone to have what they wish for
I thought the catalyst was the king refusing to grant specifically the wish she wanted granted
Also I might as well ask: Drawfriend if you be here: please draw the Queen and Magnifico bein evil but madly in love with each other.
I haven't watched this film, and I likely won't anyway but how is not granting everyone's wish a bad thing? Does the movie imply that every character beside the king is inherently good and won't wish for bad things? I feel like some type of gatekeeping would be necessary given the magnitude of everyone's wish being granted. How is this treated like a bad thing?
They really want you to hate him, in the song he sings how you should be grateful he doesn't charge anyone in the kingdom rent
I'm supposed to hate a guy whose running a prosperous kingdom with no property taxes?
>As for Beast from Beauty and the Beast I always felt that entire situation was shit because Beast did not do anything to deserve being cursed. What little boy who was like eleven years old is going to understand the nature of long term relationships and falling in love? Total shit. It was simply punishing someone for no good reason. And I always hated the Enchantress for doing that.
Ignore the fanfic timeline.
The Christmas prequel/interquel establishes that the Prince was a full adult when he was cursed.
Also throwing an old woman out into the cold was essentially a death sentence.
It also ignores that at the time, a certain level of hospitality was more or less expected. If someone came to your door, especially someone as well off as Beast was, giving her a bed and a warm meal for the night was a normal level of hospitality.
Even if he didn't get cursed, if word got out that he threw an old woman out into the cold when she asked for shelter for the night, he would have gotten very unpopular very quickly.
I'm assuming Anon is cut off from such ancient concepts. A creature of modern thought.
Communism is bad, yes.
The movie looks and sounds insultingly bad, with a story that puts even Raya's garbage message to shame. So this what you get when libshits try to teach morals, lmao.
Man, is the guy even doing wishes in a bad way, like only granting wishes to his friends, or granting wishes that only boost himself in the long run, or there's only a limited number of wishes and he's hording them to keep everyone brown nosing him?
They're not doing a very good job of painting him as evil as far as I've seen.
All I'm getting out of this so far is that he's some kind of parallel to "evil rich capitalists who have a shitload of money and could easily give more away but wont because they're evil evil evil!!! *throws tantrum* *blogs on Tumblr while dyeing hair blue* *dilates*."
Ironic, since it's a Disney movie, if that's the intention.
Why do so many grown adults care about this movie? It looks so fricking boring. Kids aren't going to want to watch this shit.
Why are you on this board? It looks so fricking boring. If you're an adult, you should have better things to do than talk to other manchildren about cartoons.
Unless, you're a hypocrite? Nah, that can't be it
