Why DID Wish Fail?

  • It’s been a fair while since Wish released late last year but I’ve been thinking about it recently and how for a movie that whilst not to the heights of the beloved renaissance or revival wasn’t the worst film ever made by the company. Yet with its reception you’d sure think so! This made me want to do a deep die into the movie, with my own opinions on it in mind and see how it could have failed in such a spectacular way. Enjoy.

    5 things I'd change about this film:
    1. Let the Anderson-Lopez team do the music. After "Gigantic" (set in Spain!) got cancelled, that should've been the obvious move.
    2. Make Asha Romani as a reference to Esmeralda (plus Spain has the highest Romani population in Europe) and make Valentino a mouse in reference to Mickey. Plus let her keep her orange dress from concept art.
    3. Use "The Pink," "The Fisherman and His Wife," and "The Sorercer's Apprentice" as inspiration. Let us have a real moral and Magnifico a grey antagonist (NOT a villain).
    4. Make Star Amaya and Magnifico's son. It could be a parallel to Elsa, Rapunzel, and Hercules. I could totally see Magnifico as a Triton/Stefan figure.
    5. Use 2D with 3D effects or vice versa instead of hybrid animation.

      That would be an interesting way to break away from the standard good guy, bad guy trope by having both the protagonist and antagonist have the same good intentions (bringing happiness of the people) but through different methods. Two sides of the same coin sort of deal.

      Exactly. In the beginning of the movie, King Magnifico worked very hard to get his magical powers and when he got it, he created a peaceful place where everyone could live in and granted the wishes that would benefit the kingdom but when it came to Asha, she sang a song about wanting to have a wish and it immediately got granted and at the end of the movie, she’s the new wish grantee which she did not deserve because she didn’t even do anything. She just asked a star and got everything while King Magnifico had to work hard for his own success yet he was defeated because of plot.

Everything felt like it was said and done "because the script says so" rather than it happening organically, so instead of having fictional characters living their lives and seeing events unfold, it feels more like we're seeing animated actors playing out a story (which WOULD be an interesting perspective, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't their intention).

    He's right about the songs, but I actually have two of them on Spotify: At All Costs (Demo) and This Wish Reprise. I mainly have them on there because you could interpret them in another context: we know of course that At All Costs was a love song, and the reprise? You can basically see that as the lovebirds battling the king and queen, but then Aster is fatally wounded, but uses the last of his power to kill Amaya, essentially sacrificing himself to save Asha and the kingdom. He's able to tell Asha that: "Don't worry about me, Asha. Just remember that I'll be watching you from afar.. And that i.. Love.. You.." And he dies in her arms, horrifying the bruised up girl. Just when everything's lost, especially since Magnifico is so heartbroken by Amaya's death, he declares that he'll make life miserable for the island, and is overjoyed that the boy wouldn't ever wake up again.. Asha softly starts singing the song, with everyone hearing, to bring him back. Eventually, everyone starts helping her, and just when it looks like the king is gonna kill his own daughter.. Aster is lifted into the air, and shines brighter than the sun. Magnifico slowly gets blinded by the glowing prince, and, not knowing where he's going, falls off the roof's ledge to his death, just as the song ends. Asha is also lifted up to the air, and she cradles Aster in her arms, hugging him close to her, as the light covers them both. When it finally dims, the couple are in gorgeous, sparkling outfits, and they're lowered to the ground. They spot each other, and Asha tearfully embraces him, with him hugging back, to the kingdoms delight, and before anyone knows what happens, Asha pulls back and kisses Aster, shocking the boy for a second before he kisses back, again t

    I think part of the reason Wish got a such strong negative reaction was because it's supposed to be celebrating 100 years of Disney, and even if you don't dislike the movie, it is NOT worthy of 100 years of legacy for the company that made the first ever animated feature film. Not by a long shot. It feels like a paint-by-numbers imitation Disney movie with a ton of references shoehorned in rather than an organic creation that celebrates a century of art. But apparently the creation of this film was rushed and occurred during layoffs, so it's not surprising that everything including the visual style, writing, and musical numbers feel like they needed a lot more revisions and tweaking before being finalized.

    I think it should trust its audience more.
    Look at the response when they revealed the original animation/art and revealed the asha/star boy storyline. People raved about it and hated the missed potential of it.
    There has been discourse of just making the female protagonist fall in love all of the time and I get that, but we experienced the lack of romance since Merida. People are not tired of romances.
    Look at the older Disney romances. They are still beloved and critiqued to this day.
    And look at Elemental. It became beloved when we saw what the story was actually about. The marketing failed on that one. They did not trust that the audience would not want to see a romance in a Pixar film, but the new positive reviews after more watched it speaks volumes. They like the romance and how it was personal to the person who wrote and animated it. The company just needed to trust that and take the risk.
    Wish had many great ideas that they did not utilize including the evil power duo along with star boy and asha. They felt people wouldn’t gravitate towards that, but that is not always true.

    I can't speak to the marketing aspects of WISH. What I know is that the movie itself was terrible. I hated the music; it seemed like it was created to be played on the radio instead of in the MOVIE. We usually love movie music _because_ it feels like a character in the film. NONE of the music in WISH felt like a character. Some of the voice actors were terrible, too. And the story was pitiful and contrived. In a weird way, WISH feels like season 3 of Bridgerton; unfocused on the main points, and trying to shove so much in that nothing is fleshed out.

I'm not interested in watching every Disney animated movie ever.) However, I do think there's one specific way in which it could be described as the worst.
    The basic premises of most Disney animated movies are fine, not super interesting but not super terrible either. Whether they’re good or bad depends on the execution. With Wish, the very premise baffles me. Why does everyone want the king to “protect” their wishes? Has anyone ever thought, “Man, I love this wish! I just wish there were a way to protect it.” Protect them from what? Maybe it would work if this were treated as a necessary evil, a price you just have to pay to live in the kingdom but instead the characters at the beginning act like it’s a wonderful life changing experience. It just doesn’t make sense.

    Now my opinion of Wish: it was fine :/ I hate Valentino- he was super fucking annoying. He talked too much. I loved Chris Pine as a villain- his voice was wonderful- but he was also wasted. The writing was terrible and mixed which ruined his character. I hated Star- I guess mostly because I expected HIM to talk not the goat :/ but also I’ve seen concept art AFTER I watched the movie and was disappointed. Also I felt like the queen was sooo meh. She was fine but I hated how cardboardy her and the seven friends were. And as much as I loved her design and voice- not gonna lie- HATED ASHA. It’s the whole dumb “look at me! Aren’t I so quirky? Tee hee 🥺🤭” getting annoyed by the trope. I want a different character model. And please I’m begging Disney for a romance- or a Disney prince movie! I want a boy movie! Something fun and showing that boys can be soft and romantic too!

    I'm a huge animation movie and show . I even love strange magic and the bee movie. Wish did nothing for me, I even slept in the middle of the movie. I didn't even finish it if you watched. Milkyymelodies, made a song called our message to the people. If you check the comments, people loved it even more than the movie because the song was amazing, starboy, and evil couple and a romance main character and star boy what original story of the movie but because they want they want to he safe . They cut alot of it out.

    You know when Once Upon a Studio came out, a lot of Disney fans actually find this better than Wish for some reason, I really don't know why they find this worse than Strange World or Ralph Breaks the Internet, and possibly more disappointing than Raya and the Last Dragon, could be because they pander to the audience, which would explain the irony between Asha and Snow White, or it could be the bad writing.

    The Reason Why Wish Failed at the Box Office is Because of Competition of movies. Disney Should Have Released it at the Same time as the celebration of Disney 100th in October instead of November and Open Earlier in Late September in Diffrent Countries. Look at Trolls Band Together. Before the November 17 Release, It opened Earlier in Late October. and it did Fine at the Box Office. Disney needs to release Their Disney Animated Movies in Other Release Dates. Not just Thanksgiving

    Saying you like the songs was WILD to me. Every song in this movie besides maybe two of them were *travesties* of song writing. They didn’t know how to rhyme, they didn’t know how song cadence works, and they didn’t know which words or syllables to emphasize.

    The thing is here is how wish was made
    So the writers wrote the script but Disney didn’t like it so they threw it in the trash 🚮
    But they had an idea 💡 asked ChatGPT to write it and they did so they told the writers ✍️ on the create a
    Second version of the script but from ChatGPT and thus they wrote it and the animators didn’t even had time to polish the
    Animation so they rushed it and Disney liked it 👍 and that is how Disney wish was born

    Wish is a phenomenal movie I gave it a 9/10 I agree with you explaining why it failed tbh it’s a fun movie the story and characters are somewhat throwbacks to the early eras where Disney characters weren’t that interesting but iconic decades laters so imo I think this was the intention of Wish it gets too much hate imo

    While I'm not a fan of Wish, I do cynically suspect that some (not all) were railing against it because that was the cool thing to do and not because it's the worst garbage ever or anything. Similarly, I suspect some (not all) are praising movies like The Black Cauldron or Atlantis: The Lost Empire because that's the cool thing to do and not because they're actually better than Wish.

    I just hope that in the movie of Shrek 5, once Disney buys DreamWorks, all The Official Disney Princes and all The Official Disney Princesses appear, especially the most important character in the movie of The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea, Melody, The Daughter of Prince Eric and Princess Ariel, with her best friends Zephyr, Tip, Dash, Kiera and Catalina, and besides, they will be the new main characters of the movie of Shrek 5 so that they help Shrek, Princess Fiona, Donkey, Dragon, Puss in Boots, Kitty Softpaws, Perrito, Dulcinea, The Three Diablos, Goldilocks, The Three Bears, Prince Lancelot, Princess Tiffany, King Artie, Princess Guinevere, The Children of Shrek and Princess Fiona: Fergus, Farkle and Felicia, The Children of Donkey and Dragon: Bananas, Parfait, Peanut, Eclair, Coco and Debbie and The Others to defeat Rumpelstiltskin, Death, Drizella Tremaine, all The Official Villains of Disney and all The Official Villains of DreamWorks, as Queen Grimhilde, Lady Tremaine, Captain Hook, Hades, Maleficent, Cruella de Vil, Marina del Rey, Ursula, Gaston LeGume, Jafar, John Ratcliffe, Shan Yu, Yzma, Dr. Facilier, Zhan Tiri, Judge Claude Frollo, Mother Gothel, Tamatoa, Drago Bludvist, Grimmel The Grisly, Mor'du, King Runeard, Prince Hans, Pitch Black, Dr. Zara, Queen Nerissa, King Magnifico, Rapunzel (Shrek) and Morgana, and to prevent Rumpelstiltskin, Death, all The Official Villains of Disney and all The Official Villains of DreamWorks from ruling and destroying all The Multiverse Forever, especially The Kingdom of Far Far Away, Shrek along with his wife named Princess Fiona will need help from their new friends which are all The Official Disney Princes and all The Official Disney Princesses, as Prince Florian, Princess Snow White, Prince Charming, Princess Cinderella, The Baker, Anastasia Tremaine, Prince Philip, Princess Aurora, Prince Eric, Princess Ariel, Prince Adam, Princess Belle, Prince Aladdin, Princess Jasmine, Prince John Smith, Princess Pocahontas, Prince Li Shang, Princess Fa Mulan, Prince Naveen, Princess Tiana, Prince Flynn Rider, Princess Rapunzel, Varian, Cassandra, Maui, Queen Moana Waialiki, Hiccup Haddock, Princess Merida, Kristoff Bjorgman, Queen Anna, Jack Frost, Princess Elsa, Miguel Rivera, Princess Raya, Walter Beckett, Princess Mirabel Madrigal, Jin, Yi, Connor, Ruby Gillman, Starboy, Princess Asha, Mateo, Queen Elena, Prince Desmond, Princess Amber, Prince James, Princess Isabel, Prince Hugo, Princess Sofia, Namaari, The Futuristic Four, The Other Six Princesses of The Kingdom of Atlantica and Melody, but actually, Melody is The First and Only that she is not a True Official Disney Princess, because Melody made her debut in the movie of The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea and it is also because she is The First and Only Daughter of an Official Disney Princess, but Shrek, Princess Fiona, Donkey, Dragon, Puss in Boots, Kitty Softpaws, Perrito, Dulcinea, The Three Diablos, Goldilocks, The Three Bears, Prince Lancelot, Princess Tiffany, King Artie, Princess Guinevere, The Children of Shrek and Princess Fiona: Fergus, Farkle and Felicia, The Children of Donkey and Dragon: Bananas, Parfait, Peanut, Eclair, Coco and Debbie and The Others also need Melody's help to protect and save all The Multiverse, especially Their Kingdom of Far Far Away away from Rumpelstiltskin, Death, all The Official Villains of Disney and all The Official Villains of DreamWorks, because Melody is The Daughter of Prince Eric and Princess Ariel, but also The Death of Queen Lillian, because since her husband named King Harold passed away in the movie of Shrek 3, she has felt heartbroken and that caused her own death in her Kingdom of Far Far Away, and all The Inhabitants of The Kingdom of Far Far Away are saddened by The Death of Queen Lillian, because now she is with her husband named King Harold in heaven, and now they have lost their queen, that means now The Kingdom of Far Far Away needs a new queen and King Artie said that his love interest, girlfriend, fiancée and former classmate from Worcestershire school called Princess Guinevere would be the one to be The New Queen of Far Far Away, so King Artie decided to return to his old school called Worcestershire along with Shrek, with his older cousin Princess Fiona, with Donkey, with Dragon, with Puss in Boots, with Kitty Softpaws, with Perrito, with Dulcinea, with The Three Diablos, with Goldilocks, with The Three Bears, with The Children of Shrek and Princess Fiona: Fergus, Farkle and Felicia, with The Children of Donkey and Dragon: Bananas, Parfait, Peanut, Eclair, Coco and Debbie and with the Others to meet again with their friends from their school who are actually Prince Lancelot, Princess Tiffany and his love interest, girlfriend and fiancée Princess Guinevere to take them back to his Kingdom of Far Far Away, and also The Romance of all The Official Disney Princes and all The Official Disney Princesses, especially The Romance of Maui and Queen Moana Waialiki, The Romance of Hiccup Haddock and Princess Merida, The Romance of Jack Frost and Princess Elsa, The Romance of Varian and Cassandra, The Romance of Starboy and Princess Asha, The Romance of Prince Lancelot and Princess Tiffany and The Romance of King Artie and Princess Guinevere, because I think that Maui will be Queen Moana Waialiki's love interest, boyfriend and fiancé, while Hiccup Haddock will be Princess Merida's love interest and boyfriend, Princess Tiffany will be Prince Lancelot's love interest, girlfriend and fiancée and Princess Guinevere will be King Artie's love interest, girlfriend and fiancée, because Queen Moana Waialiki is going to fall in love with Maui, Princess Merida is going to fall in love Hiccup Haddock, Princess Tiffany is going to fall in love with Prince Lancelot and Princess Guinevere is going to fall in love with King Artie, but they don't know how to tell them their feelings towards them and neither how to win their hearts, because every time Queen Moana Waialiki gets too close to Maui when it comes to true love, she gets very nervous with him, while which in the case of Princess Merida is also the same, because whenever Princess Merida gets too close to Hiccup Haddock when it comes to true love, she also gets very nervous with him, in the case of Princess Tiffany it is also the same, because whenever Princess Tiffany gets too close to Prince Lancelot when it comes to true love, she also gets very nervous around him, and in the case of Princess Guinevere too, because every time Princess Guinevere gets too close to King Artie when it comes to true love, she also gets very nervous around him, but luckily for them, Princess Fiona will help Queen Moana Waialiki to win The Heart of Maui, also Princess Merida to win The Heart of Hiccup Haddock, also Princess Tiffany to win The Heart of Prince Lancelot and also Princess Guinevere to win The Heart of King Artie, and I also want that Jack Frost will be Princess Elsa's love interest and boyfriend and Varian will be Cassandra's love interest and boyfriend, because Jack Frost leaves fall in love with Princess Elsa, but he doesn't know how to tell her his feelings and how to win her heart, because every time Jack Frost gets too close to Princess Elsa when it comes to true love, he gets very nervous with her, because Varian leaves fall in love with Cassandra, but he doesn't know how to tell her his feelings and how to win her heart, because every time Varian gets too close to Cassandra when it comes to true love, he gets very nervous with her, but fortunately for they, Shrek will help Jack Frost to win The Heart of Princess Elsa and also Varian to win The Heart of Cassandra, except Melody, The Daughter of Prince Eric and Princess Ariel, because she doesn't need a love interest, but also The Rivalry of King Artie and Queen Anna because they both want to compete in a challenge to see who is The Best Ruler of a Kingdom, because both want to do what is best for Their Own Kingdom, because King Artie wants to do the best for his Kingdom of Far Far Away because now he is The New King of Far Far Away and Queen Anna wants to do the best for her Kingdom of Arendelle because now she is The New Queen of Arendelle, but at the end, King Artie and Queen Anna become best friends in the world, because at the end, they both learned from their mistakes that they have made since their challenge to compete to see who is the best ruler of a Kingdom, and that at the end, King Artie and Princess Guinevere see their first true love kiss and that they become a romantic couple, just like Prince Lancelot and Princess Tiffany, and also that at the end of the movie of Shrek 5, Shrek becomes The New Leader of The Official Disney Princes and Maui, Hiccup Haddock, Kristoff Bjorgman, Jack Frost, Varian, Jin, Connor, The Baker, Starboy, Mateo, Prince Desmond, Prince James, Prince Hugo, Prince Lancelot and King Artie become The New Official Members of The Official Disney Princes, while Princess Fiona becomes The New Leader of The Official Disney Princesses and Queen Anna, Princess Elsa, Cassandra, Yi, Ruby Gillman, Anastasia Tremaine, Princess Asha, Queen Elena, Princess Amber, Princess Isabel, Princess Sofia, Goldilocks, Namaari, The Other Six Princesses of The Kingdom of Atlantica, Princess Tiffany and Princess Guinevere become The New Official Members of The Official Disney Princesses and that one day, Princess Tiffany will be The Wife of Prince Lancelot and that they have a family in the future, and that also Princess Guinevere is The Wife of King Artie, that they also have a family and that she becomes The New Queen of Far Far Away in The Future.

    I guess the trouble comes from the actual executives sticking their nose in everything when their input is consistently proved to be detrimental to big projects. Maybe just stop changing around good ideas to insert poorly constructed ones in their stead? Maybe learn from the feedback from the numerous projects that have lost your company millions? Obviously something isn’t right when you’ve become known for putting out box office bombs and complete series fodder/padding for dead properties.

    People need to just give this film another chance and here's why this WILL become a underrated classic in the future:
    1. It's strange seeing how this film was well received in-person than the internet. I mean i talked to people in real life and they enjoyed this.
    2. The film has a 81% audience score on RT, but people claim the critics (Who also gave that Netflix movie from 2020 that i can't speak of higher ratings) are right yet praise Video Game Movies or Venom for being "Critics are wrong." When are the critics wrong on Disney or Warner Films? i know Rotten Tomatoes isn't acurate but how come UA-cam reviewers would only agree with the audiences if its Mario or FNAF but not a Disney or Warner movie? (ex is the Tom and Jerry film from 2021.) Like maybe the Internet is more biased? UA-camrs even attacked Kung Fu Panda 4 and even Netflix's Avatar (both things you enjoyed along with Wish, and it's off since Avatar Netflix was well-received by fans but has dumb Video Essays on why it's a "failure" on the internet.)
    3. The haters are hyprocrites, they claim they hate the references but PRAISED THE Mario movie and even Chip N Dale RR for the same crap! I mean.. Come on guys! This film is as good as the Mario movie while Chip n D RR was a disappointment compared to Roger Rabbit.
    4. They hate it for not having romance... Does Romanace HAVE to always be in a Disney film?!
    5. They asked for a original film yet they act like this, which is disrespectful.
    6. They call this film unfinished, Uuh it's Spider-Verse animation! How is it unfinished?
    7. The AI claims are false.
    8. They hate this film for "having same Disney tropes." Bruh, THIS IS how Disney films from the past were like and they used it to celebrate the Company's 100th anniversy. can't you just accept that?
    9. They claim the songs are bad... Uuh what the hell are you on?! the songs are amazing!
    Sorry, but Wish's reviews are the reason why i don't trust Movie critics on UA-cam anymore. At least you and AniMat gave out honest ratings. But if i was you guys..
    Give this film a watch on Disney+ and just apperciate it for what it is.

    But on top of everything else, its _Disney's 100 year anniversary celebration._ If they had released this movie at any other time it would just flop and fade into obscurity. But since this was _supposed_ to be special, it amplifies its failure 100-fold.
