Ah a nostalgia trip of better times....

To be fair, could only be most formidable if we're talking about any Disney movie since Frozen, since most Disney movie villains since Frozen were twist villains that made no sense, were redeemed easily by the end of the film, or were "MUH TRAUMA!"
Eh, you may have a point there since the Deadline article covering Wish’s initial D32 announcement (Alt link) said that King Magnifico as one of the most formidable foes in Disney history.

And when you use terms like “formidable” and “Disney history“ to describe an antagonist, my mind doesn’t go to some pompous jackass with a magic staff picking and choosing which wishes to grant.

Say what you will about Kingdom Hearts, but the Heartless are pretty damn scary when you remember that they decimated the universe during the 10-year period between KH:BBS and the KH1 and that you can count the methods that can actually kill them on one hand.
Just watched, it was decent. I was surprised that Prep and Landing made the cut for Disney characters. A pretty obscure short to be put above much bigger faces like any of the stop-motion figures or any Disney Channel characters.

…or any Disney Channel characters.
Seeing as how this was a celebration of stuff put out by WDAS I think those were purposefully left, especially if it’s related to DTVA’s stuff.

The interactions between certain characters were a nice surprise. Wish it was longer though, like 22 minutes.
 
Hi. Am new to the thread. Just read through the last 10 or so pages. Sorry if I repeat stuff that's already said.

I don't believe it. They actually ripped off Super Mario Galaxy with the "star" being just a "Luma"! Send word to Mr. Miyamoto that his IP has been infringed!!!

That's literally what I thought when I first saw the star.

Wish now has its plot freely available:
Ah, so the villain is YandereDev and doesn't want anyone else touching his code.

I want to give Disney the benefit of the doubt but everything is so manufactured. Wish reeks of the meeting that spawned its story. I can smell the employees through the mere concept.

"Guys, it's the 100 year anniversary. What do?"
"Hurr. Let's make a movie based upon the song Wish Upon a Star."

Did everyone forget that Princess and the Frog already did that? For a moment there, I was expecting the star in Wish to be named Evangeline.

Anyway, I used to be really into animation and wanted to work in the industry, but that pipedream kinda fell flat due to many factors. Production after production, I feel quite relieved that I didn't clamor like some artists do to work for Disney. It's funny how I have the thought that many people almost quite literally sell their souls to the Disney company in hopes of having their dream projects given life. It's like Wish is almost self-aware in that aspect. It's like some black magic or something. Like the Disney company couldn't possibly be responsible for such a thing themselves. Really makes me think.
 
The audio quality on some of those voices still bugs me.

Also:
>y'all
>yikes

fuck you disney
To be fair, Tiana is an actual Southerner (despite how faint her accent is), so she gets the "y'all pass."

Though I find most script writers don't use the term in the correct Southern manner since they aren't Southerners themselves:
y'all = you (singular)
all y'all = all of you

So if I'm going to be autistic about it, I would say Tiana should have said "All right, all y'all."

(Although I am extremely stupid and haven't lived in the South for a while so I could be wrong.)
 
Disney's Once Upon a Studio showing how many IPs are neglected and collecting dust when they could have been used to fill Disney+ lacking catalog. Instead, the book smart Disney execs go on buying streaming rights for Garfield or making something nobody will ever watch like 'sneakerella' .

Disney's Once Upon a Studio is probably the only decent thing Disney released in the last decade and a half

TLDR:
  1. Asha wants to be the king’s assistant.
  2. King rejects her wish because no diversity hires I guess.
  3. Asha wishes on a star to give everyone a wish.
  4. King finds Star and uses him for evil to rule Rosas.
  5. Everyone is a child of the stars, so everyone has magic and stops king.
  6. King is locked away in staff and everyone gets their wish.
So much for anyone thinking they would do another misunderstood villain.
Wow, this is terrible. Not just story wise but also in terms of morals. Not every wish can come true nor should it. I'm reminded of a story about a father who has two sons. One is a farmer and the other a carpenter. He visits the son who is a farmer and overhears him praying to God for an early rainy season so that his crops may grow. The father than visits his second son, the carpenter, and overhears him praying to God for a late rainy season as if the rains come early it will damage the wood he uses for his carpentry. The father than goes home and learns that God can't grant every pray as different prays often contradict with one another.

Utterly, utterly terrible. This movie will be the pinnacle of the types of morals that Disney and their activist employees have.
 
Dear god that sounds lame. Execution is everything and all that but still so lame. Of course everyone else but the king is nice and with nice wishes. We wouldn't want any real gray in this, now would we?

I don't mean we need a misunderstood villain but more the villain has a point that he justifies his awful behavior like Thanos. Have few ugly wishes like forsed love, stealing or horrible revenge there that do cause havoc that the king uses as an excuse to go full tyrant. Because these wishes proof I must be the keeper of all power because I'm more moral and righteous than anyone else.
I have to say that another thing that got me was that the queen, Amaya, who is married to the king and was his biggest supporter is not a bad guy and is actually a good guy who is being oppressed by her husband the king. We can't have female villains anymore because, according to the intersectional feminists at Disney, women are incapable of being evil. Evil is something that only white men are capable of. If a female is evil it is because she was a victim of a white man or his unwilling accomplice. Again, this is another horrible lesson to tell children.
 
Guess this is my punishment for bringing it up as an example of a well mode series that was chock full of the globohomo messaging...

I can't even begin to conceive how shit it will be.

Of course it is. I already called this shit once I saw the trailer and some still thought "no, that can't be the intended ending", but like I said on that post, we are in full Weimar where it's all about ME so of course MY wishes should all come true and those of everyone that I like. It's just the first half of Bruce Almighty without understanding why there would need to be a second half. And of course the whamen has no agency, because they never do and it was all the bad man. Same old same old.

Already been said (most recently by @ShitLurker), but it's crazy that Bruce Almighty, a Jim Carrey movie that came out 20 years ago, managed to explore this idea in a sensible manner and deliver a good moral: if everyone's wishes were granted, it'd be utter chaos.

That'd be a fun creative writing project: write about the downfall of Generic Not-Exactly-European Kingdom as its populace descends into madness with the power of infinite wishes.
