Top 10 Most Common Disney Movie Clichés
Many Disney movies has featured many over used cliches.Perhaps the oldest and over used cliche dating back to when Walt Disney's mother died resulting in almost every Disney movie having one or no parents or parents dying in the movie.
The exception is Hercules. His parents are gods so they can't die and therefore don't die and is alive the entire movie
Can we have a whole family in a movie like Inside Out did for once Disney?
EFF YOU PARENTS FOR BEING LOVING AND CARING AND PARENTS TO THE MAIN CHARACTER >:DD
Jesus I hate musical movies like Frozen. Just makes us hate kids even more when they run around singing these annoying excuses of songs
It wouldn't be a Disney movie without characters breaking out into song for no reason.
With a few exceptions...
I have to point out that Snow White had a quite realistic body. However, her head was almost twice as big as would be proportional to the rest of her. There are some extreme cases such as Jasmine and Megara, but this has become less of a issue. It is not really the main problem when it comes to Disney.
Moana is an exception as she looks quite realistic. Everyone else... Not so much. - AnimalsLover
Do you know how skinny Meg's waist is?
So many characters in Disney movies are too trusting when it comes to strangers which why they end up in the trouble that they get into, for example Snow White biting into the poison apple from the Queen disguised as the old woman dispite warnings by The Dwarfs against strangers, Pinnochio trusting Honest John not once but twice, Tarzan foolishly trusting Clayton and getting his ape family captured.

Disney princess: ok
When Anna fell in love in Frozen, she knew true love was something at first sight. But then Elsa pointed out by telling her she can't marry someone she just met. Elsa is more wiser than Anna.
I'm all for killing off villains but Disney can just have them be hit with magic and have it take away their powers without killing them.
Disney really loves killing off their villians in the most horrific and violent ways possible.
Everyone has to have some sort of talking animal or pet that seems to be smarter than the main character in Disney
This actually isn't as common as people say. For quite awhile now, Disney has practiced equal opportunity rescuing. It's funny you cited The Little Mermaid, because Ariel saved Eric TWICE in that before he returned the favor. I can also cite Pocahontas saving John Smith, Mulan saving Shang, even Megara saved Hercules when she pushed him out of the way of that falling pillar.
I really hate when people complain about "female characters needing to be rescued," as if a woman can't be strong unless she's a physical god. The fact is, EVERYONE needs help sometimes, whether they're a man or a woman, and complaining about who's doing the rescuing doesn't help anyone.
A Lot of female mostly princess characters end up having to be saved by a guy for example: Ariel in The Little Mermain, Princess Aurora in Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Cinderella only on a few occasions do the girls save the men.
This is gonna be controversial but we don't need damsels in distress that r34 artists sexualize the hell out of
Disney's Hercules is based on Greek mythology
Changing the source material is common practice in adaptation, it isn't specific to Disney. Practically every studio does it. Laika's Coraline made changes from the book, DreamWorks' Shrek bears a passing resemblance to its book, and Warner Bros.' The Iron Giant barely resembles the book it's based on at all. It's not uncommon, and it's not always a bad thing either.
That said, the way Disney does it could be something worth complaining about. To be frank, there are some stories that Disney just shouldn't adapt. If they had to change so much about Heracles or Tarzan of the Apes or The Hunchback of Notre-Dame in order to comply with their rules, then they shouldn't have adapted those stories at all. I think I might hate Pocahontas most of all, because that was part of our history, and they treated it like it was just another silly fairy tale!
What's next, is Disney going to turn A Song of Ice and Fire into a 90-minute animated musical? Or how about a Disneyfied Berserk, ...more
They do this to make it family friendly. A lot of stuff in the original source material are really inappropriate for kids.
For example in Disney’s Hercules, Hera is his mom. In actual Greek mythology, she is his worst enemy. She wasn’t even his mom! She would try to kill him in every way possible and turn him into a mentally ill guy. If the actual myth was in the movie, it would scare kids.
I get that changing some things can be good and helpful to the film but more times than not all it does is ruin the movie
Except for Mulan
I’m fine with Vanellope being a Disney princess in the new Ralph Breaks the Internet film, although she was annoying and whinny in the first film, but she’s okay from the trailers
I don't want to watch a movie and end up realizing that I was watching a lesson-in-your-face movie
Ariel doesn't really learn anything, she just sorta wants to get something and she gets it.
Is this what they call a Movie Quit Scene? I spoof it sometimes with friends by saying there should be some type of drug that keeps these kind of quit scenes from happening
Just because something exists doesn't mean it needs a face

Do we need to give Tumblr any more material
Disney went too far with this category when Timon tries to sing Be Our Guest in the Lion King remake.
For example, Hercules and Scar from the Lion King
Also, in the Hercules episode "Return of Typhon", Hermes said "Cloud 33" which is a reference to Disneyland's private club "Club 33"
Disney made Captain Marvel a Disney Princess what and Elsa is the queen of SJWS
I'm all for empowering women but don't do it like this Disney
