It's a fan service movie and will be successful whether straight to streaming or in theaters. Why are we supporting sequels and remakes while ignoring the originals? Moana 1 will always be better.
WHYYYYY is maui older looking?? this demigod has been 29 for thousands of years, but aged seemingly in real time from 2016 to 2024? your nearly immortal demigod got wrinkles and gray hair in 8 years, what happened in those 8 years? was he the president??
And then you have the flipside of that with Toy Story 4 & 5 where Bonnie hasn't aged a day in however many years it's been even though the movies aged the humans accordingly to the movie's release date. (Or at least 3 did, i don't know if 1 to 2 did, but Andy looked slightly older)

I really don't know how Disney does it... They ALWAYS make the worst decisions every time. If a show would benefit from being a single movie, they choose to make it a drawn-out Disney+ show... But if the movie would benefit from being a Disney+ show, they CHOOSE TO MAKE IT A MOVIE! They keep making the dumbest choices, if I didn't know better I'd say they're _trying_ to fail (but of course, that would be giving them too much credit. The reality is Disney is just run by incompetent executives who have no soul).
THIS STORY IS FAR FROM OVER! This is apparently a middle movie and the mid credits shows the open ending. The human-looking villain announces his revenge and that two-timing, cunning bat lady is with him.
its crazy because, as we have seen from Tangled and even Big Hero Six, the show route is a perfectly fine option to continue the story, so why not continue to do that...?
@coatimundi69 Cuz they prefer to make a movie trilogy instead. Big deal. Plus not everyone wants to or has the possibility to have Disney +. But cinemas are in every country.
The lack of Lin Manuel Miranda as songwriter was pretty concerning. Say whatever you want about him but he made some incredible bops for Disney and was one of the reasons why the first Moana was so fantastic
@whiteasparagus4331 I mean, I didn't like his new Little Mermaid song but I never said that he should be banned from writing songs for Disney, I still acknowledge the good stuff he made. Every artist make mistakes nobody is perfect, just because of one small mistake doesn't mean it overshadowed the rest of the good stuff he has made
@@whiteasparagus4331 That's one bad song in a sea of hundred of good ones across In the Heights, Hamilton, Moana, Encanto, and his other work. I don't remember people calling for him to be banned - I don't have Twitter - and even if they were, that's stupid and definitely didn't represent the majority.
@@CoolScratcher I know that, it’s just so funny to me that like 8 months ago everyone was pretty much criticizing him for that stupid song and now all of the sudden because he isn’t in Moana 2 people are missing him
Funny how a lot of people hated LMM for making one bad song in The Little Mermaid remake, wanted him to be banned from writing songs for Disney ever again and now a Moana sequel came out, turned out to be mediocre and all of the sudden missed Lin and wished that he should've been back for the sequel 😅
If we get a Moana 3, I hope itll get the Cars 3 treatment. Continue the story of the first film, while telling a powerful story that challenges and heightens the messages of the original.
THIS STORY IS FAR FROM OVER! This is apparently a middle movie and the mid credits shows the open ending. The human-looking villain announces his revenge and that two-timing, cunning bat lady is with him.
This could've been Raya 2.0; have Moana meet people from different lands, only for Nalo/Matangi to sow seeds of doubt and mistrust, hoping they wipe each other out.
Whaaaaat? You’re telling me the made-for-TV series that was transitioned to a movie in a SINGLE YEAR was rushed, lazy, and BORING??? You’re telling me that the animation was cheap and overall crappy, that’s just prettied up with effects?
Before I’ve even watched this video I’d like to mention this: I had no idea Moana 2 was out. The only marketing I have seen for this movie was an ad that played before this video.
When they announced the Moana Live Action with The Rock, there were many people saying that Disney should have made a sequel, not a remake. I bet that’s why Disney repurposed the Disney+ show to turn it into a movie just to get a free pass on the remake
With the exception of Encanto, there hasn't been a main line disney animated movie people have liked since the first moana Edit: addressing two things. One some people mentioning pixar movies even tho I specifically said just the main disney animation studio, which idk what to say to honestly Two lotta people saying "well I liked _____ movie" which is fine more power to you, like what you like but acting like your opinion is the popular opinion is very close minded and just straight up silly, I might even go as far as to call it goofy pardon my French Have a nice day, and don't be killing each other over movie opinions. There are far FAR more important things in the world to talk about than ralph breaks the internet of all things 🫶
Ralph Breaks The Internet was half decent. Not the best one and obviously not as good as the first movie but it's still an enjoyable sequel nevertheless. Then again, that movie wouldn't have been as good as I thought without the princess crossover 😅
@@800Ms-k6nNo, I think that Ralph breaks the internet is the worst mainline Disney Animation Studios sequel (I'm not counting the direct-to-video sequels).
@@800Ms-k6nhot take: I don’t think the princess crossover was all that great. In fact: I would argue it showed that it could reduce the characters down to corporate style comedy characters. It left a bad taste in my mouth.
Which is crazy cuz no one bothered to watch Encanto when it came out in theaters (also on thanksgiving/November release). People only watched it when it dropped on Disney plus around Christmas. And then it blew up. But if people watched it a month earlier it would’ve blown up earlier which is funny.

How did Moana went from directors who previously made amazing Disney films such as The Little Mermaid and Aladdin to a Moana sequel with three directors making their feature directorial debut? It's even more daunting that they had to work from a script that was written by the same guy who wrote the first movie
Meanwhile One Piece Animators on a 6 month paid vacation so they don't burn out: 🎵"marooba Jamaica ooh I wanna take ya to kalooha Bahamas come on pretty mama" 🎵
After Wish and Secret World flopped, Disney decided to rebundle 3 episodes of their + series into a feature length movie with updated rendering to see the response. It's positive. We are so fucked, gamers.
i miss the times when animation was new and unique, i mean just a few years ago in the mid 2010s pixar was coming out with consistent hits, finding nemo, up, the incredibles, ratatouille, all imo amazing films that stood out and had actual effort put into making them. now everything is lifeless and a moneygrab. why can't animation continue being a celebration of storytelling? because i bet if they put in just a morsel of love and life into a fresh movie itd make triple the money a cheap sequel would
The Main issue is that it's a story with a clear cut hero(Moana) and villian(Nalou) that doesnt develop the relationship between the two and instead focuses on the most irrelevant characters and features of its narrative. If the Dark Knight had a Joker we never saw and never even heard a single line of dialogue from that would be a waste of 2 1/2 hours. Almost every Disney movie ever made except this one understood your hero is only as strong as your villian. Whats 101 Dalmatians without Cruella? Whats Aladdin without Jafar? Whats Beauty and the Beast without Gaston? Even the recent Disney movies with twist villians established the villians as relevant characters in the story before their reveal. Mayor Belleweather, King Candy/Turbo, even the prince from Frozen are all established prominently in the story. All I knew about the huge main villian of this movie after it was over was that he was a god and that he was evil(I guess). No backstory, no insight into his philosophy or reasoning or anything other than he was just a meanie who wanted to separate the people of the ocean(I guess). Disney needs better writers because this is pathetic.
I didn't feel anything from the final fight.. against some beams of lighting and tornados. The villain didn't feel like some high-stake threat like the first movie. And the villain only showed his face after the end credits.
I really hope they pull a Cars 3/Cinderella 3 off with the seemingly inevitable Moana 3. This story, world, and characters deserve to be handled with respect and intention, not poor planning as a desperate cash grab. But such is the current state of Disney unfortunately... Also, happy early birthday!
@@Azure_Sky222if they weren't rushing it so bad they could have reworked the elements into a good movie. There was so much potential for a well paced story in either format but...
What's even funnier is that Jared Bush, the current CCO of Walt Disney Animation Studios, wrote the sequel and the live action remake at the same time! What the hell is he even doing??? 😂😂😂
During my showing yesterday in the theater every single move trailer shown was a live action remake of an already established IP. How to Train Your Dragon, Snow White, Sonic 3, Mufasa. It’s quite telling about how bankrupt these studios are on creativity and how greedy they are to continuously push out slop that nobody asks for. It also really exposed what type of movie Moana 2 was gonna be, a sad imitation of a beloved IP capitalizing on the success of its predecessor…
@@Disneyfan82 I want to see Disney do a grimdark fantasy movie, something inspired by the video game Dark Souls or something, with a princess who goes from good to evil.
THIS STORY IS FAR FROM OVER! This is apparently a middle movie and the mid credits shows the open ending. The human-looking villain announces his revenge and that two-timing, cunning bat lady is with him.
I don’t know why people were so mean to Lin. People can say he’s “cringe”, but yeah, most theatre people are. He’s a musical genius. Now his presence is sorely lacking. The last two properties without him FLOPPED.
If I had a nickel for every direct to streaming movie that was then upgraded to be a theatrical release starring the Rock and released this year, I'll have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice
Ditto, I wasn't planning on watching it, because I love the original so much, and suspected that a sequel would be totally unnecessary. Turns out that my hunch was all too accurate.
@@枒 nah, they were both pretty good, just not as good as the others, which set a high standard. i guess they're "mid" in the sense that they're less iconic, more forgettable, and flawed in execution of their narrative+thematic concepts, but it's good to remember adults aren't the target audience for these. i'm not a parent but although they're not particularly powerful or legendary in the disney canon, i think encanto and frozen 2 are both pretty good movies to show your kid.
It’s ok we are all getting old Anyway I felt like it was gunna be not so good ever since I heard about it being a tv series It should’ve stayed a tv series
Moana 2 was amazing too me I was nervous after watching the video someone posted saying it was bad but we all have different preferences and opinions some people like it and some will hate it that’s just life I enjoyed the movie.
Disney thought they could pull a similar move like Toy Story 2 with a 9 month production period. But unlike Moana 2, Pixar never let some inexperienced studio handle their sequel.
Maui wanted more of him in Moana 2!! I really loved Maui’s development, and I’d love that he kept his development while they expanded on it. He felt like a loving older brother and a teacher. For Moana, she was great. They expanded on her character, and nothing feels like they backtracked, which was great. She's still very adventurous, and *spoilers*, I believe she’s a demigod now, which is going to be interesting for future sequels. And if you look at how many tattoos Maui got, maybe it could show future advances or advancements Moana could make. So, my favorite characters in this movie were obviously Maui and Moana. Heihei, Kele was my fourth very good character; he just reminded me of me from time to time, aside from not liking singing. Moana's sister was slightly annoying, but she was a cool little sister. What interests me more is what future stories you could tell with that little sister to see what she goes on to do-if it’s good, evil, or somewhere in the middle, just adding a different layer to their characters. But what I rate this movie is about an 8.5 out of 10. I personally like this movie more than the first one. However, I do feel that since this movie was a series first, and then a movie, there's a slight bit of condensation. It looks like they’re saving a villain for the next movie or potential sequel if this movie does well, which is slightly disappointing. If that doesn’t come to pass, I might revise my rating, but for now, I’m feeling an 8.5 out of 10. If I were to count all my problems, it might go down to a seven, losing three points, or even a 6.5 out of 10. But currently, I’m not feeling like lowering it; I'm okay with the rating I currently have.
Happy early birthday! I'm glad that you're taking your time with videos now and releasing them when you're ready, rather than rushing them out. The videos have been better now that you're actually showcasing an opinion, rather than being the "i hate everything" guy. You sound happier and that makes me happy. I really hope everyone is going ok for you, because you don't deserve that trouble :)
It's really good, especially the ending and how it sets up Moana for future adventures. My kids loved it!! Moana is critic proof. She is an IP like Mario which can get mixed reviews but they have zero impact and will make a billion worldwide. She is too powerful for any criticism.
Went to see it. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Wait for it to hit Disney plus. I couldn’t help but wonder why they didn’t tap anyone to create an amazing soundtrack.

Probably so that's it's less jarring when The Rock plays him in the live-action remake of Moana 1 that just filmed. Yes, that's already happening.

What's even funnier is that Jared Bush, the current CCO of Walt Disney Animation Studios, wrote the sequel and the live action remake at the same time! What the hell is he even doing??? 😂😂😂
Let's add he'll also write Zootopia 2. He will get that busy
I remember watching the trailer and thinking, where are the colors?? Colorful villains??
Unfortunately you'll have to go back to the 90s for that
The villain was purple cloud but he was hardly a villain at all
4:52 IT’S HIM
During my showing yesterday in the theater every single move trailer shown was a live action remake of an already established IP. How to Train Your Dragon, Snow White, Sonic 3, Mufasa. It’s quite telling about how bankrupt these studios are on creativity and how greedy they are to continuously push out slop that nobody asks for. It also really exposed what type of movie Moana 2 was gonna be, a sad imitation of a beloved IP capitalizing on the success of its predecessor…
I'm going to see all those movies, so I asked for them..
So there's a Moana 2 *and* a Live Action Moana is coming out. Disney is really going to squeeze everything they can get out of Moana 😂
I wish Disney would make a dark fantasy movie
Glad I was born in the 80s when that happened.
@Disneyfan82 Why can't Disney do it today. I really want to see a gothic fantasy princess movie, who goes on a corruption arc
The last time they tried this was The Black Cauldron and it bombed, so they've been scared to do that ever since. Maybe they'll reconsider some day.
@@GothMusicLatinAmerica Not exactly, there were other dark movies they made, just with better writing.
@@Disneyfan82 I want to see Disney do a grimdark fantasy movie, something inspired by the video game Dark Souls or something, with a princess who goes from good to evil.
The hype of Wicked here and there is still going strong to the point that I forgot a Moana sequel is about to come out a week after Wicked 😅
stop commenting so much bro you are 10% the comment section
@@theguidefromfortnitefr 😭
A modern Disney movie with no conflict? I'm shocked!
I knew it !!!!
Jerma is responsible for everything
Its his tempt up anger of being stuck in a "compact" body
8:38 "why do i have this random picture of vancouver on my desktop? guess i'll just delete it."
00:46 real nice to see my boy jerma going from a tf2oober to top executive of disney
THIS STORY IS FAR FROM OVER!
This is apparently a middle movie and the mid credits shows the open ending.
The human-looking villain announces his revenge and that two-timing, cunning bat lady is with him.
At least the direct to TV/DVD movies that actually just episodes of the show were full 3 episodes and not a salad.
9:14 The irony of making so many of those artists suffer undue stress and anxiety over the deadlines of that film is incalculable.
I just came out of the theater and thoroughly enjoyed it so I got jumpscared by this notification 😭
I’m glad you enjoyed sorry for the jump scare ✊😞
So great u were happy while Israel gets money
@@AyaOatsnobody asked your opinion on the war. This is not about the war. Be quiet
@ they give money to them when u give disney money they give it to israel making it related
@ ur a bad person so am i we are both going to die and go to bad place if its real
They should’ve named the movie
The rock:Ego strikes back!
I don’t know why people were so mean to Lin. People can say he’s “cringe”, but yeah, most theatre people are. He’s a musical genius. Now his presence is sorely lacking. The last two properties without him FLOPPED.
idk i still liked the movie but i definitely was disappointed when the bat lady wasn’t a villain
I LOVE Moana and would've LOVED a TV show
Miss you a lot Nick, you're always a delight to listen to brother.
Atp I can’t turn my brain off for Disney sequels
For some reason, anytime they make a sequal that's bad, the original feels worse
Because before the last things with the characters in your mind was good and those good memories are mix in with the bad ones of the new film
(reads title) i don't need a youtuber to tell me that
Didn't know we shared the same birthday. Just turned 25 today, and it feels crazy. Hope you're doing well, and you do what you love. (P.S. Big Fan)
If I had a nickel for every direct to streaming movie that was then upgraded to be a theatrical release starring the Rock and released this year, I'll have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice
happy birthday nick!!
Moana 2 is one of the sequels of all time. And one I’m glad I didn’t see it.
Ditto, I wasn't planning on watching it, because I love the original so much, and suspected that a sequel would be totally unnecessary. Turns out that my hunch was all too accurate.
True💯💯
When did the world forget to say the sentence properly.
"Moana 2 Is one of the [insert opinion] sequels of all time.
@@eddiesmith7867 The Morbius Meme helped😂😂😂😂
@@chasehedges6775 how is that a morbius meme
I love the first five 3D adorkable heroine Disney musicals: Tangled, Frozen, Moana, Frozen 2 and Encanto. Wish has officially ruined that style.
Frozen 2 and Encanto were mid
@@枒 nah, they were both pretty good, just not as good as the others, which set a high standard. i guess they're "mid" in the sense that they're less iconic, more forgettable, and flawed in execution of their narrative+thematic concepts, but it's good to remember adults aren't the target audience for these. i'm not a parent but although they're not particularly powerful or legendary in the disney canon, i think encanto and frozen 2 are both pretty good movies to show your kid.
Happy early Birthday man! You're doing it year by year. Little progress, good progress. Always awesome content!
My friend wished it was longer
0:15 Lbp elevator music in the background?
8:21 Dead Space mentioned!!!
I'm so happy this was recommended to me. Missed you, nick!
Happy Birthday! This video pretty much sums up my feelings about this movie
6:51 that’s because it was written by a TikToker
0:48 JERMA, THE THING ITSELF? WOWZERS
hey Nick, happy late birthday! I truly hope you had a great time :)
It’s ok we are all getting old
Anyway I felt like it was gunna be not so good ever since I heard about it being a tv series
It should’ve stayed a tv series
This is what I was scared of…
Lin Manuel may be cringe but he's free and can write good songs
Moana 2 was amazing too me I was nervous after watching the video someone posted saying it was bad but we all have different preferences and opinions some people like it and some will hate it that’s just life I enjoyed the movie.
Disney thought they could pull a similar move like Toy Story 2 with a 9 month production period. But unlike Moana 2, Pixar never let some inexperienced studio handle their sequel.
They fired half the staff and wanted to make money
Exactly.
Modern Disney’s quest for greed is utterly is impressive
4:52 Schaff mentioned!
Bro talking like Moana was a Modern Picasso
Maui wanted more of him in Moana 2!! I really loved Maui’s development, and I’d love that he kept his development while they expanded on it. He felt like a loving older brother and a teacher. For Moana, she was great. They expanded on her character, and nothing feels like they backtracked, which was great. She's still very adventurous, and *spoilers*, I believe she’s a demigod now, which is going to be interesting for future sequels. And if you look at how many tattoos Maui got, maybe it could show future advances or advancements Moana could make.
So, my favorite characters in this movie were obviously Maui and Moana. Heihei, Kele was my fourth very good character; he just reminded me of me from time to time, aside from not liking singing. Moana's sister was slightly annoying, but she was a cool little sister. What interests me more is what future stories you could tell with that little sister to see what she goes on to do-if it’s good, evil, or somewhere in the middle, just adding a different layer to their characters.
But what I rate this movie is about an 8.5 out of 10. I personally like this movie more than the first one. However, I do feel that since this movie was a series first, and then a movie, there's a slight bit of condensation. It looks like they’re saving a villain for the next movie or potential sequel if this movie does well, which is slightly disappointing. If that doesn’t come to pass, I might revise my rating, but for now, I’m feeling an 8.5 out of 10. If I were to count all my problems, it might go down to a seven, losing three points, or even a 6.5 out of 10. But currently, I’m not feeling like lowering it; I'm okay with the rating I currently have.
i got a moana 2 ad on this video lol
I think this was a good sequel curse you haters.
The moment I saw “Moana 2” I was like yeah, NOPE. It’s already so wrong when they featured that useless pig character 😭
you guys will hate on anything at this point, the movie wasn't even that bad
Exactly, I still get A chance to see it
it's called criticism and just because you enjoyed it doesn't mean the majority of people do
Funny enough I got a ad got Moana 2 when clicking on this
Happy early birthday! I'm glad that you're taking your time with videos now and releasing them when you're ready, rather than rushing them out. The videos have been better now that you're actually showcasing an opinion, rather than being the "i hate everything" guy. You sound happier and that makes me happy. I really hope everyone is going ok for you, because you don't deserve that trouble :)
2016: “You’re welcome”
2024: “I’m not sorry”
HES BACK AND HES HATIN AGAIN YIPPEEE
Happy birthday, Nick. :)
Using LBP music for the intro sent me back in the past. Other than that, great video.
I got a Moana 2 ad before this 😂
I didn't even noticed it released 💀
It's really good, especially the ending and how it sets up Moana for future adventures. My kids loved it!! Moana is critic proof. She is an IP like Mario which can get mixed reviews but they have zero impact and will make a billion worldwide. She is too powerful for any criticism.
It's a good movie.
Went to see it. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Wait for it to hit Disney plus. I couldn’t help but wonder why they didn’t tap anyone to create an amazing soundtrack.
Bro got possessed by Mario Wii U when he talked about the water.
