Disney's Wish: An Immoral and DANGEROUS Message

EDIT: I was so caught up in the script I forgot to sponsor myself. Check out my anime themed tea store to help support me and my work. It'll also help me make more vids like this. Links in description. It's become too difficult to keep up with the comments lol, I'll do what I can but I'll prolly end up missing a few. Thank you for the views, don't forget to subscribe, like, all that jazz!

The villain isn’t a villain, he’s having a midlife crisis.

Took my 9 year old to see this and she instantly saw through it. She says: "but the people of the kingdom were using him and only cared about wishes." Proud moment

You know what's ironic? That the movie poster says "be careful what you wish for"

Am I the only one who think that King Magnifico is strangely similar to the generous king? The fable of a king who was giving his money to the people, until he go broke. And when he ask the people for help, they gave him the cold shoulder, and start blaming the king.

This isn't even the first time Disney has put out a movie with horrible moral implications. Raya and the Last dragon shames the main character for having trust issues with the woman that betrayed her and has been her rivial since then. It's terrible

"I do all this work and live with so much stress while everyone else benefits. I just want some respect, and maybe occasionally a reward, for all I do." If you boil it down, the "villain" in this movie has the same motivation as Cinderella. We really have come full circle.

Also something to note about Asha. It's constantly told to the watchers that she's "so selfless" and yet when it's almost her turn to get her wish(it's stated in the movie it's almost her birthday) she goes all around to get a job interview with the king, not because she genuinely wants to help him and serve him so the kingdom stays prosperous, but to get an extra wish on top of her upcoming birthday wish so she doesn't have to sacrifice her own wish in order to get her grandfather's wish granted. That's not "selfless" that's opportunistic

A loving father, cares about his children in not letting them have everything they want compared to everything they need. A terrible Father spoils their children in giving them anything they want.

Raya the Last Dragon had the worst moral of the story "No matter how much people betray your trust, you keep trusting them no matter what because one time it might work". I hated that moral of the story so much. Do not teach kids to allow people to betray them and they should keep allowing other to betray them because one time they might do something good.

The terrible irony is that out of all the Disney remakes where they rewrite the villain to be sympathetic, this is the only film where it’s actually warranted lmao.

"Anything you want you should get, and if anyone tries to stop you for amy reason, even if they're right, they're the villain." That is such an evil, immoral and twisted way to tell children to persue their dreams. It teaches children to be selfish in the worst way and i hate it.

So Magnifico was a man born to a humble family who built up a kingdom designed to make his people happy. .... Did they really turn WALT DISNEY into the VILLAIN of DISNEY'S 100 year anniversary movie?!?!

this movie just highlights how immature Disney's writers are. they literally still think like a child and thus wrote this story like a spoiled child that doesn't understand why adults don't simply let kids do whatever they want.

It would be a much better movie if Magnifico was actually a good guy and Asha actually learned a lesson and realized she was wrong.

Rapunzel wasn't bad in Tangled though, she was just adorable and eccentric, but rightfully fought for her freedom.

So it seems we're now living in a world where Disney's writing has gotten so bad that in trying to write a classic "hero vs villain" story they did it so badly that they, by accident and with no self awareness of the result, made the hero look like the villain and the villain look like the hero. Just. Wow.

I kinda wish magnifico was a twist hero, he seems bad initially, but it turns out his methods are to protect people from their wishes being granted all at once causing chaos, giving a theme of "you don't always get what you wish for". Asha could combat this and bring about chaos that she and magnifico have to begrudgingly work together to solve, and view each other as father and daughter by the end when Asha has no dad, and adding that magnifico lost his child because of his own wish. He could have a song where he talks about the bad wishes, how he struggles with the weight of his kingship, and maybe how he's preparing Asha to one day take his place

This is modern self-indulgence incarnate in a movie and it's scary. The "villain" is a hard worker, tragedy-struck, who wants to make the world a better place.

In Disney's "Aladdin 2: Return of Jaffar" it took 10 seconds to express the dangers of wishes; when Abis Mal wishes for a famous sunken treasure.
