Funny how Pixar who's pretty infamous for having a pretty bad sequel track record was able to make a better sequel to Inside Out than anything Disney could ever do in Moana.
@ well to many people I’ve seen due to Pixar’s high standards, disappointing = bad. Honestly a bit stupid if you ask me but people expect more from Pixar and know they are more than capable of creating art that can stand the test of time.
Disney does have an original coming in 2026 and Pixar has hoppers and Elio in 2025 and 2026. Also there is an original series in February called win or lose. They do have a lot of originals so please support and watch them instead of complaining about sequels! Thank you!
I haven't watched the movie so I don't know if they did this, but here are my ideas for the side characters: Loto: As the craftswoman of the group, it would be cool if she used different gadgets she invents to help the gang, and over the course of the seiries have her upgrade the ship in order for them to survive more dangerous waters. Moni: Aside from being a fan of Maui, I would like him to play a role as someone who can decipher acient text that can help the gang reach the different islands as well as the mysteries surrounding their history using a combination of oral history and ancient carvings. Kele: As a farmer, it would be cool if he can identify which plants are safe to eat, how to perserve them, as well as as which plants can be used for medicinal purposes. So that also makes him the crews doctor.
I hate how Moana had literally no character development. They had a great opportunity to give her an arc about leadership, with the crew being introduced, but they totally squandered that.
I didn’t watch the movie, but it reminds me of blue beetle because that was a series that was turned into a movie. If you watch blue beetle, you will notice some parts where it feels like a series because they want to explore a little more what overall enjoyed blue beetle.
every time i looked at the villain, the more I wanted her to be the villain. She was completely misunderstood instead of a villian, which upsetted me because it felt like she could have be something greater. Maybe she could have become a ally at the end after a long battle... but no we had to do the simple, "she's misunderstood". Damn it Disney!
Pls Disney you already ruined one of your best Disney movies from 2016 by turning it into a movie instead of keeping it a series, so pls don’t ruin Zootopia 2 next year. At least we don’t have to worry about any songs in this upcoming film. 🙏
The original writers and directors from the first film are coming back for zootopia 2 so don’t worry it will be in good hands. I think it will be really good.
Disney claimed that the material was too good to be a streaming show, and then instead of letting the crew try to rework the story to fit a movie format, they had to try to make some kind of cohesive product with what they had and it doesn't work.
After Moana 2 disney should re-imagining Thumbelina 1994 in CGI animation with sabrina carpenter as the voice of thumbelina, Alex Aiono as the voice of prince cornelius, Daphne Rubin-Vega as Mrs toad, Lin Manuel miranda as Jacquimo, Blake Roman as Berkeley Beetle and Sarah Stiles as Mrs Fieldmouse✨🧚♀
Yeah, I didn’t like the second movie. It was just such a pain in the ass and and it was so fucking bad, seeing it for first time makes me think like what did I just watch?
The third movie will be a huge hit at least that is what i think beco0use the producers have time to make it into a movie and not Frankenstein a short sires into a movie.
I even thought of going to the cinema to watch Moana 2, but when I heard that it was bad, I gave up. Wish is not the best movie, but it has potential. I'm even working at home on my ideas for Wish 2. Just drawing movies on FlipaClip. There are demons, angels and all kinds of things...
Disney is starting to become the next Illumination where they care about quantity over quality. Also, I got a bad feeling for Zootopia 2 after this movie.
I agree that it was mid personally. People say that *IT’S THE WORST MOVIE ON EARTH OMG, WE’RE GONNA DIE!!* yea… and I can agree that the kids in the theater when I went to watch it were horrendous. I at least heard 2 babies screaming in the theater while watching, and I could barely hear the movie. Ofc I’m still a kid basically but put that aside. The movie was okay. :/
Oh please, Moana 2 can’t be that disappointing or worse as Strange World and Wish combined, even though it hasn’t been easy for Disney for whatever how long, to make something successful, which is ironic since Moana is one of a few Disney fan favorites, in other words, they could’ve at least gave an honest opinion, or in this case, blame the writer/producers/directors since bad writing/directing, unnecessary storylines and characters, not to mention cash grabbers are one of the many reasons why some tv shows or movies/sequels should never exist, no wonder people are either worried now or losing hope, and they say Moana 2 might break Inside Out 2’s record, well clearly they’re wrong, and do they have to make things worse by making a live action remake of Moana since it’s feels unnecessary.🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
The only good praise I can give to this movie is how well is FOOLING people to thing the animation is as good as the original.....until you watch clips of this and the OG and realize how INFERIOR the animation truly is, again praise to the poor unfortunate souls of all the animators of the Vancouver division who have to definitely crunch time to add more frames, textures and probably animated a lot to cover the imperfections to make look this movie as cinematic as possible to look like a theatrical release, on that end the animators did magic, but again when you compare clips of the first movie, the expressions the watcher, the smooth, the rendering, it just look 100000 times better, again these people kill themselves probably to cover and manage to hide it very well, but when you notice, is impossible to not see this was an animated show first, never meant to be a full theatrical release.
I hate how they lied to us about Matangi being the villain. You made her act crazy, you made her in the shadows most of the time, you gave her a song called get lost, you gave her bats, and you had her say that they would be destroyed in the trailer yet they didn’t make her a villain. Also no I’m not counting the cloud guy. We only see the storms he made, and by the time we do the movies over. I hate how manipulative the marketing was.
when the writers said "we had to water down the character to the parts that made the story work" I WAS CONCERNED FOR THIS FILM. they had full stories for these characters and had to push it all into a movie, when they had a FULL SERIES.
The original writers and directors from the first film are coming back for zootopia 2 so don’t worry it will be in good hands. I think it will be really good.
I checked this movie out in theaters and it was not as bad as most people say but nothing too interesting. Probably never gonna check it out again but I’ll take this over wish any day of my life
Which sequel to a 2016 animated movie would you say is better - Kung Fu Panda 4 or Moana 2 !! You and a lot of people consider them okay and disappointing. I haven't watched Moana 2 but I think KFP4 is a great movie despite being the weakest of the franchise but what do you think ? Also I hope Zootopia 2 is a worthy follow-up because I really wanted a sequel for that film and I am glad its happening. I am also pretty optimistic because it has been in development for quite a while and the original creators are returning so it won't have the Moana 2 situation where its rushed and they have to somehow salvage it into a watchable film.
Yea The original writers and directors from the first film are coming back for zootopia 2 so don’t worry it will be in good hands. I think it will be really good.
Okay just saw the movie here’s my opinion. My criticism of the movie Since this was supposed to be a series on Disney plus it did definitely felt rushed at least in the beginning the extra characters I can do without like there there but there not there if you get what I’m trying to say I can’t really remember there name I think the two dudes should’ve stayed on the island. The little sis should’ve joined I enjoyed her and wish she got more screen time. Matangi was marketed to be the villain but she wasn’t I am disappointed in that she could be such an interesting villain and the main villain wish we got more of him.But for me the biggest problem I have is the songs Lin cooked in the first movie and I love the song but here the songs are okay the best one I can say was chee hoo like the little training montoge I thought that’s funny. Dispite my problems there are positives.For starters the characters still like themselves still live Moana some of the jokes did get me Simea is so adorable. The animation is beautiful. The final act was good and Moana “death” scene caught of guard tatto Maui is always awesome and I simply enjoyed it Al’s the voice actors did great.So overall it’s not prefect it’s not sequel I was expecting but it’s not terrible my rating on this film is C+ or 7/10 so decent please Disney with the expansion of Moana I would like a series and not a 3rd movie pls no.
As an elder gen z, let me make it clear that the original Moana was not that big of a deal when it came out 💀 Frozen was a cultural phenomenon, whereas Moana was an above average family movie that had a moderate box office run, but was ultimately overshadowed by Zootopia which came out the same year. It's longevity on streaming is mainly due to the fact every original Disney film since it's release (not counting sequels obviously) have been generally underwhelming citically and financially. The songs help as well, which, again, are popular but not of the same magnitude as Frozen's soundtrack. Honestly "How Far I'll Go" is basically a Hawaiian flavored "Let it Go" anyway 💀
Crazy how this movie is been making more money than both wild robot and transformers one combined Can we just all agree people are actually idiots at this point? Like they don’t want actual decent content just slop
I honestly thought moana 2 was pretty good, the third act of the film was so worth it to check out in theatres, but the rest of the movie was pretty slow
Disney Moana 2 is my favorite Disney sequel , and I just watched it yesterday. My least favorite sequel is despicable Me 4. I also don’t actually want a live action Moana , or frozen 3.
@chillychivy435 Same. I'm going to watch it on December 4th. Let's see if this movie tops Inside out 2 and the wild robot. I mean the songs are great, the casting is perfect and the background looks beautiful so... It will!
@@Simbala-bq5vyI watched wicked and it didn’t too either inside out 2 and the wild robot for me. But again that’s just my opinion and the movie wasn’t bad just not as good as the other two.
but the story is good seeing different pacific islands coming together teachs kids to stick together and never give up and talo was an amazing villain at the credits he shows up and leaks that there's gonna be a moana 3 i enjoyed it but moana is just perfect
I throught it would be out tomorrow but eh nice switch up look am seeing in next week but oh my god after what I herd...oh boy it fall into Kung Fu Panda 4 & Despicable Me 4 as a disappointment squeal. And I did listen soundtrack and all I have to say if Mufasa the Lion King cook then you know Walt Disney is a laughing stock. Oh man Inside Out 2 is the only good squeal this year...so far (and despite this being a streaming movie yes No Time to Spy a Loud House Movie was honestly a fun squeal sure it no Puss in Boots the Last Wish squeal but differently as fun as Sing 2)

Pixar sequels aren't bad, they're just a bit disappointing.
@ well to many people I’ve seen due to Pixar’s high standards, disappointing = bad. Honestly a bit stupid if you ask me but people expect more from Pixar and know they are more than capable of creating art that can stand the test of time.
Moana 2 success has me concerned that Disney is gonna focus more on sequels for the future over originals!
Disney does have an original coming in 2026 and Pixar has hoppers and Elio in 2025 and 2026. Also there is an original series in February called win or lose. They do have a lot of originals so please support and watch them instead of complaining about sequels! Thank you!

Unironically that is a better concept than what we got.

The Wild Robot and Inside Out 2 are my favorite animated movies this 2024.
I hope either one of those wins a Oscar. They both deserve it.
Agreed
Transformers was good to and I'm waiting on Sonic 3
Agree! Alongside Transformers One too.
bro knows quality.
Uh Oh. First Megamind 2, then Kung Fu Panda 4, then Despicable Me 4, then now Moana 2, Yikes.
I hope Sonic 3 & Mufasa Lion King won't be a disappointment PLEASE
Aubrey Plaza for Shrek 5
"Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate" was a pilot episode for the Peacock series.
Nah Moana 2 is way better than most of them. Bro really exaggerates 💀
@@03mbc sonic 3 ain't Disney so no need to hope I can already sense shadow being the strongest

Maybe she could have become a ally at the end after a long battle... but no we had to do the simple, "she's misunderstood". Damn it Disney!
Don't worry, there are The Owl House and Gravity Falls that have irredeemable villains in the form of Emperor Belos and Bill Chipher.

Don't jinx it lol
I hope so, Zootopia is one of my favorite movies ever. If the sequel is bad I will be very disappointed. 😔
Welcome back direct to dvd sequels
Tamatoa would certainly be disappointed.
I watched it 2 days ago in theatre and I pretty much enjoyed it. I had a blast with this movie.
I enjoyed it as well to be honest. Love how different people have different opinions on movies and we can share them without fighting! Awesome!

They didn't even play the dog man trailer that's how u know it's bad
The movie didn't deserve peak
@@crazygamerinc It did played the dogman trailer when I watched it.
@@Simbala-bq5vy from what I know it just played a tv spot, not a full trailer

I know zootopia will have the generic cop plot.
illumination is good
I just finished rewatching the first movie but after this review, i'm a little less excited for the sequel
Everyone is gonna have a different experience with some really liked it there's a chance you could too!
@@chillychivy435yes I love how we can all share opinions and not get mad! Huge respect.

Because a lot of people hate them
