Something doesn't feel right about Disney's latest Animated Feature film...

Disney's Wish was supposed to celebrate the company's 100 year anniversary, but it seems to take all the wrong lessons from the extensive history of Disney.

Today on the Writer's Block, let's dive into the 3 reasons Disney's Wish FEELS Like it was written by Artificial Intelligence...

    The fact that it most likely has human writers but it FEELS like it was done with a.i is additionally embarrassing......
  • props to disney for giving the writers a giant break for their 100 year anniversary

    12:26 The first time I saw Tangled, I missed the prologue. I will ALWAYS adamantly believe that this made my viewing experience better. I didn't know about the flower, the magic, the kidnapping, any of it - enjoyed it immensely. Finding out the story as it unfolded was a thousand times better than just being told up front what everything was - being shown through the imagery of the missing princess, Gothel's odd behavior, Gothel having Rapunzel use her power at the start to make her younger, etc. was so so so much better than the narrated "here's what you missed on Glee" segment.
  • Not only is Mushu more than just a joke telling device, but the jokes he tells are actually funny

    It scare me if Disney used AI to write Wish but It scare me even more if Disney didn’t
  • @Juju2927
    Magnifico should have been either of two things : - A Missguided good person, wanting to help his people but not understanding how wrong it might be to strip them of their ambition and then guided back to help them accomplish their wishes in their own power. - A straight up old school villain, who wants to control everyone's wish to force them to serve him, or to drain their "wishpower" to make it his own, and therefore should be defeated so people keep their independance. Here, they basically wrote him as a person who think is doing the right thing, but gets triggered by one single defiance and decided to say "Well screw you, evil time" just like that.

    The diversity in Wish is particularly egregious after Encanto absolutely nailed it. A diverse multitacial family of 12, featuring hispanic, black, northern european and mixed race individuals, represented well across both genders. It served more than just meeting a quota. It made the family feel alive and real. It was every bit an excellent example of what diversity can bring to a story's narrative and worldbuilding. And then we get Wish.
  • @mooredaxon
    I find it ironic that, the classic fairytale lesson of: "be careful what you wish for" is completely disregarded in Wish, the 100th anniversary movie from Disney

    As far as the music goes, this is what happens when instead of hiring a theatre music composer, like disney ALWAYS has, you hire a literal pop music composer... Soulless, corporate, and shallow, and only has the purpose of being catchy and keeping up with trends.

    I never realized the lack of men of color in disney films ( though i have avoided all live action films, and the more recent disney films). but holy fuck thats a huge shock honestly.
  • @jneumy566
    I feel like Magnifico's "villain" song alonehad some AI involved in it. There's no way a human being thought "I let you live here for free, and I don't even charge you rent" made sense. At least not someone who's supposed to be a professional screenplay writter.
  • @intel_coar6844
    Fun fact about that Nemo comparison. The opening scene was planned to be a flashback for much later in the film, serving as a big reveal for why marlin is so overprotective. When test screening, audiences didn’t like marlin and seeing an explanation didn’t help because they already formed their opinion on him. So, the flashback was moved to the start of the film to show audiences why he’s such an anxious parent.
  • @benjaminprietop
    Honestly, if it does turn out to be an A.I written script, it's kind of good news, since it's failure proves that audiences are more smart than the executives think

    "You had the audacity to waste a perfectly good chris pine" PREACH BRO!
  • @adamwegner2520
    I have a theory that wish was a test done by Disney to see how much they could get away with ai replacing.
  • @Potatypus
    I'd be surprise to learn Disney actually used AI, but I think disney is focusing so much on commercial and formula that it is essentially trying to write a story the same way an AI would, by reproducing things that already were made mixing them together and handing out a product that is lesser than what it is imitating.
  • @Kittyboi.
    Honestly the original concept was so much better than the final product from what I’ve heard. We could have gotten a magical star boy! A cute romance with him and Asha and a married villain couple!! The queen was also supposed to be evil!! I want my mute shapeshifter star boy!
  • And you don’t even mention how sociopathic the Queen was. She supposedly loved her husband but then dropped him like a rock to a horrible fate. Like, she didn’t even try to save him at all
