- Following on from Mari J. & Kocisaurus' videos 😀
I took out a lot of questions though, if I didn't have much to say on it, it was gone - as I'd rather answer less questions but in more depth. Also purposely didn't include anything on characters because I want to make a "Disney heroines ranking" some day!
As always, it includes non/Disney! and hope you enjoy ☺️

Awwww, lovely video dear
Thank you dear 🥰 I wasn’t sure if it’s better to answer more questions or what I ended up going with - I think I wrote too many words 😅 and it will be wonderful to see your opinion & get to know you better too!
Aww what you said about Mulan is so sweet 😍! Disney did a great job in depicting Chinese culture and it's overall a movie with such deep and important messages! And the fact that all of this comes from a hundreds-year-old poem is amazing!
Pocahontas was my second choice after Sleeping Beauty, so I fully agree, and I loved the leaves moved by the wind all throughout the movie.
Haha it's weird, but I think the Aladdin and Jasmine's kiss on the balcony (the one I chose for my video) is the kiss every boy would like to have.
If You Can Dream was an unusual choice, but what can I say? I love how the English voices of Disney princesses often get to collaborate in songs/movies, plus the song is beutiful!
That's why I'm such a advocate of Disney making movies with cultural representation! it may not seem like a big deal, but it's actually so important, and could make all the difference to a little girl/boy! I actually do think Sleeping Beauty has stunning animation, but my dislike of that movie detracts from being able to fully appreciate it. ohhh so interesting! now that I think about it, makes sense, I think Belle & Adam's kiss is more intimate/sweet, whereas Aladdin & Jasmine's kiss is more sexy - although that's being very stereotypical of the differences between girls & guys 😅 forever waiting for If You Can Dream to be dubbed in other languages 💔
@@Meirenyu I totally agree! Especially for kids and young people (but not just them) it would mean the world to see a hero/heroine who looks/is like them in a Disney movie. That works for black/Asian people, LGBTQ+ people, people with disabilities, anyone who's part of a "minority" that doesn't get represented a lot.
Yeah, Sleeping Beauty hasn't got the best plot, the reason I like it is the animation and the score, plus I love the Italian dubbing😊.
Noo I didn't mean to sound stereotypical, generalizing is the dumbest thing ever, but now that I re-read my comment it gives a bad idea, and I'm sorry if it offended you. It's more something I feel rather than "what every boy wants".
I was thinking about that a few days ago, it would be nice to have the song dubbed in every language. Still it wouldn't be easy to have all of the original singers together, and if they changed even just one voice it wouldn't be the same, so I don't want it to be dubbed😂
LOVE your editing! I would have an harsh time choosing my favourite Disney movie but Mulan would definitely be among the candidates and I'm glad to see you chose Spirit, as I think it is a bit underrated. I think when it comes to the favourite dance scene, the majority of people will choose the one from Tangled and I think I would too. I'll have to to this video too for myself :))
Choosing a favourite Disney movie was so hard 🥺 I feel like unless someone's favourite is Frozen or Tangled (which is always super obvious!) it could be one of many! although for non/Disney, Spirit is easily my favourite! thank you, and yay can't wait to see your video 🥰
Absolutely loved this 😍 The editing is so on point - I especially love Rapunzel painting as the transition in between categories. Your answers are incredible as well! Not to mention the commentary is so so good
Thank you dear 🥰 will you be making one of these? (I hope so!)
@@Meirenyu Of course! 😊 And I most likely will!
Cute list, despite I’m not sure as to why you have Rapunzel in the entire video….
1. Lion King will always be my favorite Disney movie, but even as an adult I find it a bit overrated lol. It just holds a very special place in my heart. I’d say Tangled is definitely my favorite princess movie, and imo it deserves more love and credit for what it did.
2. Favorite non Disney movie would probably be either Anastasia or Spirit as well. Spirit specifically just has gorgeous animation like Pocahontas but also a more compelling story.
3. Favorite animation, I have no idea. Almost every Disney movie has their own unique style, so it’s pretty hard to say which one got it absolutely right. I’d say Pocahontas is definitely one of my favorites as well because of the gorgeous effects in Colors of the Wind and Savages, and perfectly capturing North American beauty before the English came. But I will give credit to Tangled because of Rapunzel’s hair and especially the entirety of I See the Light! Also, I always enjoyed the art style for Pocahontas because they made the human characters more realistic instead of giving Pocahontas big eyes and a fairytale waist.
4. Favorite dance sequence would probably be Tiana and Naveen tbh. I really love the sequence in Tangled too, but I always thought how sweet it was seeing Tia being hesitant to dance with Naveen because she never learned, because of her constant declining of going dancing with her friends. But Naveen reassured her if he could mince, she could dance! It just makes their relationship more enjoyable and organic in comparison to more popular Disney couples whose relationship is built up in like a day.
5. Favorite princess song is definitely Colors of the Wind. Always has been my favorite song as a kid and always will be. Judy Khun is an AMAZING singer and I just adore how Pocahontas’s main song isn’t necessarily about “falling in love” like a grand majority of princess movies. Her’s is about helping John Smith see the error of his ways and opening his eyes to how beautiful the world really is and her culture doesn’t need changing or fixed. But ultimately, its clear throughout the song they’re truly falling in love and come to understand each other better. The ending note just gives me chills as they gaze into their eyes!
6. Favorite kiss is Pocahontas easily. Beauty and the Beast’s is nice, but it was never a favorite. Part of it is because I felt Beast becoming a human in the end kinda defeated the point of him learning to be content and happy as a beast and he really had someone who loved him as he already was, and doesn’t help his human form was kinda a disappointment lol. Pocahontas’s first kiss is just so intense yet beautiful, a forbidden kiss. Both know their peoples would never understand their feelings, but that won’t stop them from loving each other. Plus the music just adds to the tension and beauty of seeing their love at its zenith.
7. Favorite villain song is a tie between Hellfire and Be Prepared (and honorable mention to Mother Knows Best) Rameses’s song is pretty intense and I find him criminally underrated as a Dreamworks villain, but my two just have so much intensity, from Scar’s burning hatred of Mufasa and innocent Simba and having certain imagery during the song, to the haunting and very disturbing portrayal of Frollo and his disgusting desires for Esmerelda’s beauty.
8. Favorite ending is by far Lion King. It just feels so much more intense with Scar being defeated by his own minions, tired of his negligence of them and his betrayal. But seeing Simba roaring is just satisfying, seeing him finally heal from his father’s death and finally becoming the king he was meant to be. The music is actually what gets me every time, hearing the buildup as the Pridelands go from a desolate wasteland to its former glory and the celebration of the next ruler of Pride Rock, Princess Kiara. Also, I can’t help but laugh at Timon’s antics up on the ledge! I also give Pocahontas huge points in second place. This movie is the only one that has a sad ending unfortunately, but it ultimately just shows how mature Pocahontas and John’s relationship really was in comparison to other couples that got married at the end of the movie. Too bad the sequel completely pooped on the beautiful ending and made Pocahontas “more historically correct” 🙄 I enjoyed Moana’s ending, but it’s nothing in comparison to other movies imo.
9. Most romantic scene? I definitely wouldn’t have said Anastasia’s ending lol, I think there are more romantic moments in the movie. My favorites would have to be with Pocahontas and Tangled, specifically when Pocahontas and John Smith first meet at the waterfall and her ultimately trusting him, to him declaring his love for her and telling her how much she’s changed his life for the better. But Tangled’s jam packed with romantic moments, my favorite aside the song is probably the campfire scene. Rapunzel and Flynn have finally started to open up a bit to each other, and confide in each other their biggest secrets. I find it so sweet how they can relate so much but find people they can actually be themselves. The part Raps tells Flynn she likes Eugene Fitzherbert much better is so sweet and adorable, helping him find his self worth in his true self to the point he started going by his real name at the end of the movie, abandoning his persona Flynn Rider. Also, Tiana and Naveen are really adorable, specifically the part where Naveen tries to make their last night as frogs as romantic as possible with a homemade meal on the boat. I love how Tiana has enjoyed her unexpected vacation, but it helped her understand the importance of taking a break once in a while and not slaving her life away.
10. Favorite prince song would definitely be If I Never Knew You from Pocahontas. I count it because John has more lines than Pocahontas does, and hot dang does Mel Gibson have an amazing singing voice for someone who doesn’t normally sing. I’m surprised to learn he insisted on singing any songs John had, which unfortunately he doesn’t sing a lot in the movie. But this song is his way of portraying how much he has changed and matured because of his love for Pocahontas, and helping her understand how sad, alone and empty he’d still be if they had never met. He’s perfectly fine with dying because he finally found a new purpose in life and found someone worth truly fighting for. Personally I am not a fan of Lost in the Woods, mainly BECAUSE Kristoff is hardly in the movie and his main role is being Anna’s boyfriend, and is nervous about proposing to her. It doesn’t help their relationship always felt so rushed and kinda forced, but I also find the whole singing reindeer thing a bit stupid and more of a filler scene than Kristoff needing to let his emotions out.
Wow I got chills when you showed Spirit ! I love this movie so much 💞
I loved the editing of your video ^^
yesss that scene was chosen for a reason 💕 never fails to give me chills! and thank you!
ayee I love the Punzie transitions 😂 I'm seeing so many amazing choices here- Mulan, Pocahontas, Tangled, the Little Mermaid, Frozen 2, and thanks for reminding me I have Moana's movie downloaded and waiting for me in the library!! 💞
Ahhh I'm guessing that means you're also part of the rare people who like "Lost in the Woods" then! yesss Moana is waiting for you to go watch it 😍
I am gonna do this as well. Can you imagine how much Tangled will be there? Hehe. I am gonna try to not add just it.
I really love the editing, Rapunzel is there 😍
Amazing choices! Really, I really agree with you. Great job! 😄
Haha yes it will be a declaration of how much you love Tangled 😜 thanks! I can’t wait to see your video!
@@Meirenyu haha, yes, I am gonna try to show my love to other movies as well 😂
And I am really glad to hear this! 😄
I absolutely love the look of this video! So creative! Kingdom Dance was a close second favourite dance scene for me. Love the melody and the tempo. It’s truly unique. I must say, I found your comment on “The Plauges” very interesting, and an interpolation I’ve never considered before. I always forget that “If You Can Dream” exists, but it’s so lovely!!😭❤️
Thank you! and thanks for the idea 😃 it makes a lot of sense to have Belle & the Beast's dance as your favourite since it's also your favourite movie! For "The Plagues", I wanted to write something else, but then also wanted to be truthful 😌
Awww! Lovely video! Your choices are incredible, Spirit is such a masterpiece, its ending is heartbreaking. I love Anya and Dimitri as a couple, like it was their destiny to be together.
There’s so many heartbreaking scenes in Spirit 😭 oh also horses are my favourite animal! I love Anya & Dimitri because they disliked each other initially, but grew to love one another for who they were - that’s always much more romantic that love at first sight 😌
@@Meirenyu So true!!!
I like horses too, my grandparents used to have one female white horse, in the countryside.
awww beautiful 🤍 that’s literally my dream, to live in the countryside and own some horses!
@@Meirenyu I hope to fulfill your dream.
Hang on, hang on, gonna burst in the comments after lunch
Awwwh this video honestly made my day! I love that you chose "If you can dream", this song means so much to me as it was actually a cover of this song that first introduced me to the youtube community around Disney
awww hearing from you made my day too 🥰 it would be so amazing if other countries dubbed "If You Can Dream" too - and invited their Ariel & Jasmine & Belle & Pocahontas to sing together! I'm pretty sure "Spirit" is the reason why horses are my favourite animal!
I've gotten to the stage where I've accepted this is the new normal, and it's not going away anytime soon, but the good thing is I've finally found time to make many videos again :') I miss your videos & your beautiful voice! hope you are doing well too dear 🥰
I've been waiting for what you would bring out for a week, ahhhh 🤩
So, even if "Mulan" was pretty predictable, I have to admit I had no idea what your fave Disney movie was, then only after it popped out in the video I picked up the pieces and a few comments and the banner made sense.
I agree on your comment on "Mulan", even if you'd surely can understand the matter better.
I don't think I'll ever be able to understand why is "Hercules" so praised on the "faithful adaptation" aspect, as opposed to "Mulan".
Neither of these aspired to be a proper telling of the original material and both of them are far from becoming that, but "Mulan" managed to look to the poem from another point of view and be endowed by the same essence anyway (and with this I mean that the important values are still there), which is something the other movie failed at, since in my opinion it just only happened to be a mere animated fantasy with different topics within.
I don't even know how to explain it efficiently enough.
"Spirit" has been always one of my favourite animated works since I watched it when I was 3, I still remember when I couldn't pronounce his name decently and for me it was "Pee-Teeh" (precisely with the emphasis on the second syllable) and my mother couldn't catch up with it 😂
And you couldn't be more right when you say that it's literally a tear drops machine: it manages to sucks my soul every and each time, eh
And yeah, it's pretty clear that every soundtrack Zimmer touches is gold.
Oh, I guess we happened to read this question differently.
I considered only the technique of moulding pictures in order to make them appear as moving images, while you picked up the graphic matter as a whole.
If it's like that, I can surely agree with you as for "Pocahontas", since I think it's one of the best Disney works as for how the layers of the images are crafted and looked after.
I don't particularly enjoy "Anastasia", but I endorse anyway what you said.
"Belle, how the heck don't you recognize me immediately after I transformed right before your eyes?! I worked really hard with all this pyrotechnic show!!"
And yes, this scene of course was one of my options for that question!
Same goes with the dance party in Corona: how can you resist to such a genuine display of shared joy as time freezed and everybody could rest their mind for a bit?
I don't deny the importance of that iconic scene in the animated world, but my tastes surely goes to other places :/
Now, "Lost in The Woods", I like only one single piece of that song, but I can't help agreeing with you once again.
That managed to explain a side that it seldom appeared in the other male song: the courage to express their love sicknesses freely.
Well, I guess that here all I can say that your reflection can help everyone, regardless of their beliefs.
In which Church do you identify yourself and your Faith? Catholic, Protestant...?
Ahhh, I guessed it right, I demand my medal to be brought to me immediately 😌 (is this sentence even right...)
I've seen you mentioning "If you can dream" countless times, hence I'd be very surprised if someone didn't think of it 😂
I can't appreciate those slow and repetitive ballads, though I like the idea of having a princess assemble.
"Moana, how are the following chiefs supposed to get their rock on an even keel if you put a seashell there??"
As a conclusion, FINALLY SOMEONE USED THAT PAINTING SCENE AS A TRANSITION and it couldn't look more lovely 🤩
With love,
The one who said that would have written something the very same day, but ended up sending her "Odyssey 2.0" two days later.
oh my, thank you so much for your comment! I eagerly awaited your comment, but didn't expect to receive an essay hehe, but I LOVE reading long comments so I truly appreciate that you took the time to write this 😍
I'm finding that people's favourite movies are either very obvious, or I have no idea what they are. I was surprised yours was "Aristocats" - why's that? 🧐 As for Mulan, for a long time I felt 'guilty' for having it as my favourite movie because I'm biased towards a Chinese princess/setting - but then I realised, that *is* the point of it! That's why I'm always a huge fan of Disney including diversity, like Pacific Islands & Sami culture.
haha that's adorable! my childhood memory of "Spirit" is going through 10+ tissues once, and I'm not ashamed to admit this lol!
What do you mean "technique of moulding pictures in order to make them appear as moving images"? I'm not entirely sure what this question is about 😕
How come you don't like "Anastasia"?! 🥺 (it's one of my favs)
I'm a non-denominational Christian ☺️ but I always respect everyone's religions no matter what - and if only religions were more tolerant of each other's, then a lot of the world's problems would be solved! there's this quote I love, and I think you will understand it: "In the day-to-day trenches of life, there is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships something. The only choice we get is what to worship. And the compelling reason for maybe choosing some sort of god or spiritual-type thing to worship is that pretty much anything else you worship will eat you alive. If you worship money and things, then you will never have enough. Worship your own body and beauty and you will always feel ugly. Worship power and you will end up feeling weak and afraid. Worship your intellect, you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud."
You guessed right! your medal can come in the form of a 🍪 or 🧁 or 🍩
I genuinely don't remember ever mentioning it though? 😂
@@Meirenyu Oh, gonna reply as for my favourite movie when I'll take time to answer the comments under my video, so that I'll be a single subject there.
And yeah, you're right about your first sentence, for instance, I was very surprised to see "Moana" in Annie's video 😂 (and I still have to leave a proper comment, other than my first excited comment while I was watching the video, as I did with you ahah)
I mean the illusion of motion that you have if you make several images run sequentially and quickly (well, with 3D animation the technique is not the same, but that's the origin of all), literally only what it actually is moving in an animated movie.
I hope I made it clear now.
Yeah, I think many (including myself) should really reflect on what you wrote, as having the presumption of being incorruptible machines, that aren't always influenced by every and each element around them, is a common plight.
Ok, you can dress the part of David, procure a sling and then throw butter cookies to me, I'll wait for you with a bucket, just give me the coordinates.
You mentioned it in your "Disney Song Tag" for example, and in comments, but well, thinking it through, it might have been just a random guess of mine, or maybe I'm not recalling something right now 😂
Amazing video❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍
Thanks! ☺️
When a next charackter ranking? 😍
Which character should I rank next? 😃

Really nice vid :)
Thank you! ☺️
I thought spirit stallion of the cimarron was DreamWorks not Disney?
