Thoughts on the Tangled Movie (By my kid brother)

My little brother give us his thoughts on the Tangled movie. It's below the cut. Enjoy!

Q: What's your favorite scene?

A: The scene were they're escaping the prison. It stuck out to me. Because I liked the characters and it was pretty funny. And I liked Shorty. Shorty's funny. And I also liked when Eugene was getting chased through the woods by the guards. It was like when Han Solo flew into the asteroid field to escape the Empire!

Q: Who's your favorite character?

A: Gotta be Eugene! He reminds me of Han Solo. I could see Han Solo doing heist like that. Instead of crown, it would be Kyber Crystals. All Eugene needs is a space ship and his own wookie!

Q: Who's your least favorite character?

A: Mother Gothal. She's mean and annoying. And I don't like that she was greedy. And just straight up cruel! But I did like her eccentric-ness. Eccentric villains are more fun. She would be cooler if she had a lightsaber like Darth Maul.

Q: Did you have a favorite song?

A: I GOTTA DREAM!

Q: What about the movie you would change?

A: It needs VARIAN! (We all agree with you buddy.🤣) And it needs the Cantina Band. (Where? The Snuggly Ducking? Oh my gosh. Haha!) And more explosions. And blasters. Who uses horses?! Speeder bikes are much faster. And E-Web blasters. (What? What are those?!😅)

Q: What did you think of the movie as a whole?

A: IT WAS AWESOME! There was one part I didn't like. It was when Eugene got stabbed. I didn't like that part.🙁 And I loved Rapunzel's Frying pan!

Q: Do you think it should have a movie sequel?

A: Yes. I think that would be very good. I'd enjoy that. And it needs Varian! I MEAN COME ON! THERE'S NOT ENOUGH VARIAN! The world's a sad sad place.🙁 (OMG. LOL!🤣)

So there you guys go! And we all agree with you bro. The world needs more Varian. And if you haven't guessed, my brother is a Star Wars fan.😂

So I saw this American movie called Tangled...

And there are so many holes in the plot

I mean first of all why didn't Mother Goose or whatever her name is just change Rapunzel's name

I mean you stole a princess, not a random ruffian

And you even kept the birthday the same, what the hell? I mean they release this lantern thing every night on the princess' birthday and you don't think to change it?

The whole movie wouldn't have happened if you had just changed her birthday, told her it was the day after

I would make a better kidnapper than you, Bondye.

And then when this ....Fin Piper... Fish Dryer.... Flynn Rider guy shows up

and he steals a crown with the aid of two gingers 

First there's this creepy horse that stalks him around 

and Rapunzel the lovably homeschool psychopath proceeds to repeatedly smack him in the head with a frying pan

And he's just completely out cold

how is he not dead

and then he's like in a coma

and the lizard thing licks his ear and wakes him up

the hell

I mean is that the new treatment now

if I fall into a coma just give me a wet willie and I'll wake up

And there's the whole creepy mother thing where she's like ' YOU CANNOT LEAVE THIS TOWER'

And then Rapunzel is bipolar for a bit

and all of the ruffians start singing

which shouldn't surprise you I mean their bar is called the Lucky Duckling

And then Fish Rider or whatever fights the damn horse with a frying pan

and goes flying around on her hair

which is disgusting by the way I mean it's dragging around in the dirt

and then he's like 'Since we're drowning my name is Eugene Fishherbert"

and she's like 'my hair glows when I sing'

and he's just like kwa

and then they don't die and she heals his hand and the lizard thing is just like "hi"

and then mother goose shows up and she's all mean and stuff

and then she goes away and Rapunzel hides the frying pan

also great job hiding that frying pan

'YOU'LL NEVER FIND IT' and then your psychotic mother finds in like ten seconds

and then the creepy horse shows up and the lizard is all 'calm.'

and it calms and then they go to the city and dance around 

and then the lanterns pop up yay

and then there's random fighting

and then unicorn guy shows up and saves the day and Fish Rider has a heart to heart with the horse

and they save Rapunzel who is being chained up by her mother after realizing she's the princess

and then Fish cuts her hair so she can't heal him but since her hair doesn't grow after being cut apparently, it's all short for eternity

great job there

and then she cries and saves his ass

and they kiss

and the end

oh and there's some old gay guy

yay

My Review of Walt Disney Animation Studios' 50th Theatrically Released Animated Film: Tangled.

[thoughtfulwish]

Tangled Review (2011)

Disney’s new fairy tale film, “Tangled,” directed by Nathan Greno and Byron Howard will have the audience laughing the entire length of Rapunzel’s hair. The film is amusing, witty, fun, and great for kids and adults.

Disney puts a new twist on the classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm by adding classic humor with frying pans, adventure, and an energetic soundtrack. The original plot of Rapunzel’s father stealing turnips from a witch’s garden then punished by giving up his unborn child for his thievery has changed a bit. Instead Rapunzel is stolen as an infant and her hair has magical powers besides being without split ends.

This tail is told through the narration of the kingdom’s most wanted and of course most handsome bandit, Flynn Rider (voice by Zachary Levi). Flynn is once again running from the law, which has him stumbling upon Rapunzel’s (voice by Mandy Moore) tower. This encounter allows a whole new type of friendship, besides the one she has with her pet lizard. This is the first time meeting someone from the outside world and allows a new chapter in her life, getting away from “mother dearest.”

The characters are quite loveable. Rapunzel is sweet and caring, but packed with spirit. Flynn was nothing close to a prince charming. He had more of a cocky attitude but subtle gentleness that is revealed throughout the film. The characters were fun, and easily relatable.

Every viewer (well, every viewer not in elementary school) could relate to Rapunzel’s dichotomy of obeying her mother’s wishes, and experiencing the world for oneself. This emotionally torn state gave Rapunzel a sense of tangibility that the audience could relate to.

The animation is outstanding. The details that went into this were endless, down to the continuity of Rapunzel’s freckles. What was most interesting was that though Rapunzel, one of the oldest of Disney’s princesses, looked and acted younger than 18. Rapunzel, though drawn to be beautiful did not have a certainsex appeal that other princesses have been bestowed. The lack of sex appeal made her character more believable as being naïve to the outside world and matched her adventurous character.

Flynn looks the most mature out of the “charming” Disney males. For starters, Flynn is the first with facial hair, giving him a more rugged real look.

Of course the classic over sized eyes were still a pronounced feature in these characters, but the importance of detail, including in the background of scenes were beautiful. The detail that went into the golden hair was notable; the viewer can tell each individual strand was accounted for. Even the teeth stood out, probably because in animation’s past, teeth were not a main detail. The lines between each tooth were drawn, including a gum line.

Disney has been breaking away from its traditions, and not just including the drawing aspect. The latest fairy tales, including “The Frog Princess,” has had more unique happy endings. It gives a new perception to Disney, and a deeper look to the heroines and heroes.

In “Tangled" it has the underlining moral of vanity being a curse as well as to not judge a book by its cover. Cliché morals, but Disney gives it a modern twist with a magical style. The audience can also view the film as a lesson to adults to give a child room while growing up, to let them have their own sense of explorations.

Though this version of Rapunzel is different from its origin, Greno and Byron do sneak in a few aspects from the original text that some viewers caught on to.

The only downfall to the film is the soundtrack. Though the soundtrack is fun and energetic, it was not like the preceding Disney musicals. There was no number that was catchy enough that a viewer could remember when leaving the theater. The music flowed in sync with the spirited characters, but the tunes were more of breakaway pop hits. Though the music did not deter from the film’s mood and story line, it was missed.

Overall the film deserves an A-. It was definitely worth seeing again, and buying: even splurging for a blu-ray disc. The movie also has parts that would be great to see again to notice before the ending occurs.
