@@dadrising6464 Except "Princess and the Frog" is also based on white princess tale. They just took it out of Middle Ages Europe and placed it in 20th century America so the race change would make logistic sense. But, in this Little Mermaid, it doesn't make sense for there to be black royalty in this setting, when they were still enslaved back then. They took Little Mermaid and gave it the "Bridgerton".
He had the one wife who bore him seven daughters. The audience is expected to believe they all come from the same two parents (someone told me a few days ago that the daughters took on the ethnicity of the ocean they were born in - because that's how fish/merfolk biology works, apparently).
People aren't racist for hating her playing little mermaid, they are racist for taking beloved white character and replacing with black one. Disrespecting other nation's culture and history.

IT gives her a unique and in "my eyes" a very beautifull face in general. I assume you are a gay male since you cant se how pretty she is
I would like to say though, Ursula WAS originally written to be Tritons sister and they added this in the Broadway musical (which seriously they should have just adapted instead). The reason Ursula isn't a mermaid from what I recall is her dabbling in dark magic on top of being banished for eating the palace citizens and craving the power of the triton, which was given to her brother on their fathers deathbed while she got his magic shell. Honestly, this change would probably seem LESS stupid if they just added the song of Ursula singing "I want the good times back".
Yes but they ditched the idea so it is not canon. I think it was a good solution and cannot see why the hell they wanted to keep that now. It doesn’t make any sense to ”add” it to canon now. And it doesn’t really work like that.
@@flav2689 I'm glad they ditched that idea. Ursula doing those horrid things to her own niece and brother, would make her even more creepy and loathsome than she already is.
@@itsunknown3002 So in your world you cannot criticise anything you're unable to do yourself? Have you never criticised a sportsman for a bad game, a musician for a bad song or anything that you have found disappointing? Just because you are unable to do something in particular it doesn't follow that you are unable to differentiate between those that succeed in an endeavour and those that fail abysmally.
YES. Especially the part about Black European royalty. And so many people can't see how ridiculous it is. While they are rewriting history. It's bizar.
In Netflix with "Queen Charlotte" alot of people think now the real Queen Charlotte was a black woman from Germany, nothing but propaganda is scary how they want to rewrite white people history
It's a fucking fairy tale bitch. Who gives a fuck. Why the fuck would you care about royalty in the real world? What kind of a loser are you to be a whiner?
True, they fake represent and actually make afro culture seem not good enough and undeserved to bring it to the big screen. Race swapping it's racist by itself, but diminishing men and making women feel even more shame for showing emotions and affection, only makes it even more disturbing.
Kind of ruins immersion as a marine biologist when we are supposedly in the Caribbean and I see all Pacific fish, guppies in the ocean, moray eels give off electricity, a Arctic Gannet as the seagull, a obligate land crab as the one begging Ariel to live under the sea, and a soulless damslefish representing Flounder, who was grouper sized.
My conspiracy theory: Disney isn’t doing these remakes as a cash grab, they’re using it to claim continued usage of the characters to extend the copyright and prevent them from becoming public domain.
Ariel in 1989: - A strong willed and independent young princess with a deep interest in the surface world, with a strong personality, able to argue with her father, Triton to defend her passions. A young woman who is always curious and inquisitive mermaid who loves to explore and collect items from the surface world; she saves a human from a burning ship wreck, which only deepens her admiration for the world above the waves. Her actions during the storm kick start the chain of events that not only brings her together with her one true love, but also winds up resulting in Eric defeating Ursula, meaning that Triton has finally begun to see that some humans can be trusted; after all, one of them just saved his daughter's life. It's this plotline that makes Triton able to let his little girl go, and let her make her own path in life. Ariel in 2023: - Flavourless milk carton.
Your Triton theory scared me shitless, like wow. That's pretty fucked up when you think about this, but at the same time this is the most logical answer to Triton's multi ethnical daughters and their "killed by humans" mothers.
The logical answer would have been to say they're all adopted (like how Eric was adopted by the queen). But for whatever stupid reason, the audience is expected to believe that all the sisters are related by blood.
Also very accurate to actual Greek mythology most of the men of Olympus including Neptune/triton(let's face it triton is Neptune) are pretty much manhoes Edit apparently triton is the son of Poseidon and grand son of Neptune like father like son I guess 😂😂
@@Unapologeticweeb he’s not though that’s insulting to Greek mythos. Triton was a minor Greek god. Son of Poseidon but there aren’t many stories about him sleeping around but whatever.
The fact that Melissa "Ghostbusters 2016" is considered the best part of this garbage, pretty much says it all. Even the human form of Ursula looks better than Hale Baley
Ursula in the animated movie was designed to resemble "Divine", who was also planned to voice her, but he died before that could happen.. What I'm saying is, Melissa McCarthy is perfect for the role 🤣
It was always going to be this movie that awoke the reaper from his slumber. I also like how they made Eric adopted, literally just to make his royalty parents black.
But now he's not a "real" prince either. As soon as the queen or next inline relative has a legitimate child he's out on his ass. Maybe he can be kept on as an advisor or bodyguard or something. but they'd probably just kill him as a threat to the legitimate heir.
Many people complained about the MC being black in this one, being called racist by others. Thing is, the problem isn't that she's black. The problem is that the character in the original isn't. They changed it for the sake of changing it. That's the problem.
thanks for regurgitating what the video you just watched said, but youre wrong. the problem IS that shes black. because theres 0 reason to race swap her character. literally none. even in the sense of "diversity" and all that bullshit you shouldnt need a pre existing character to change her skin color to feel included. that means you are extremely weak and fragile and should not be making your own choices in life. people with even the slightest bit of IQ can relate to characters based on traits regardless of skin color, and if you cannot see past color of skin then YOU are the racist bigot. you dont strike someone and then cry when they hit you. same way you dont call people racist after changing a pre existing characters skin color for 0 reason or relevance to the plot whatsoever. people have a right to criticize dumb choices that are irrelevant to the plot that only serve to push an agenda.
And delusional idiots like Ani Mat/ElectricDragon505 defend the race-swapping decision because we're racists and we need to know are place and shut up. Just like Modern Disney.
I hardly need to mention that the voice acting and the story of the original was moving, and perfect. This bad remake can’t compete with the ending of the original.
You're so much better at this than the Americans. I will never understand why Disney has decided to shy away from any sort of romance. It seems counter-intuitive. The age difference between Ariel & the adopted prince seems massive. The guy looks ancient for an unmarried prince, while Ariel looks like a little kid. In the cartoon they made the sisters less attractive than Ariel. In this version they did the opposite. The pink-haired babe is gorgeous.
The fact that they gave a different version of Ariel’s sisters a different name but not Ariel herself is next to sad. And the dark-tanned version of a mermaid is not Ariel, that is Muriel.
Honestly, I would be more sympathetic towards the leading female actress but after how she tried to act as if the live action is immensely superior to the animated one and how she only nitpicks the bad parts about the animated version to fit her narrative, then proceed to act as if the world is racist and out to get her while milking the sh t out of the fact that she got casted as Ariel with all those lame and boring photoshoot. So really, at this point, I can't give a f about all the backlash she is getting and how she's the lead in a movie that's undoubtedly going to flop harder than a fish out of water. She brought this on herself and I'll be happy if this is going to be the end of her career. Good riddance.
@@3li.mp339 her career as a leading actress of a movie that isn't going to break even, has horrible rating, practically rejected by the majority of the people outside of woke America, and you say that she's thriving? Okay, must be fun living in la la land simp
one more little error: in the shipwreak scene, a bunch of fish swim by ariel. those are guppies, that, while having tolerance to saltwater, can absolutely not survive in it. The writers didnt even bother to research the fish
They are literally rebooting Moana , a film which is only 7 years old into live action just so the Rock can play Maui. I just want a animated Moana sequel and what they are doing Stitch in his reboot...😣
Another concept that was not acknowledged but would explain why Triton's daughters not looking like him. Ariel is considered the youngest and therefore their mother screwing every merman in the ocean and cucking Triton.
That would be funny lol. Supposedly the reason Disney gives is each daughter represents a different ocean so that’s why they all look different but that literally makes zero sense and I literally can’t with Disney anymore 😭💀
"Maybe if somebody would push thier eyes which are located on the side of thier head back into correct position then she will see a lot less racism" Holy shit this one killed me, dude🤣🤣🤣

“Don’t whitewash history!” While simultaneously making every culture throughout history resemble the architecture of Europe, the sophistication of the upper class and the diversity of downtown Los Angeles circa 2024.
10:04 i find it funny when king triton says “they got what they deserved” as if it’s not hypocritical! He’s upset because of the shipwreck, but says they deserved it? how does that make any sense! god the writing is so unbelievably bad I can’t stop laughing!
10:14 I couldn't help but notice that those particular fish in front of Ariel are guppies which aren't even salt water fish. Edit: I also want to mantion that in the original film, scuttle was a seagull while in this movie, she's a Gannett which is aren't even related to seagulls whatsoever. They didn't just gender swap scuttle, they also changed the type of species he is. They might as well have made an entirely new character.
It’s also jarring that in comparison towards the animated film and the live action scenes with the collection room. Triton in the animated film was fatherly stern, forcing his hand and looking back with regret after his daughter’s sadness in order to protect her. Here in the live action, they just have the father just snap and destroy the shit, that and it didn’t even have the statue? Like bruh. Had to finish with an essay about this piece and had to rewatch that underwater dumpster fire for reference comparisons I did like with the Dalmatian series. This is just a mess of a film.
"In the original, they talk to Scuttle on land, because obviously, he's a fucking bird, he has lungs, he needs air." The sheer annoyance in this sentence is killing me. 😂😂😂
In the original story, the Little Mermaid kills herself instead of killing the prince. In the updated version, the audience kills themselves instead of killing Disney.

WAIT at 10:14... why is Ariel playing with GUPPIES?!?!?! they're freshwater aquarium, domesticated fish! as a fish enthusiast this to me is -100 points!!! I thought Disney was aiming for realism here wtf
No they didn’t. Avatar the way of water was literally the first movie to combine cgi with actual image capture underwater. Until avatar with their massive budget made their prototype, all cgi movies have done it like the little mermaid with everything added in post production.
You don't need to put on your tin foil hat, because the backstory is dumber. All Ariel's sisters are from the same mother. The actor confirmed something like "When they had a daughter, the essence of the ocean transfered to the "fish" ", so that's why they are like this, which is dumb because that's not how biology works lmao
Yeh, The Little Mermaid animation is brilliant. It's actually one of my faves. Disneys early stuff are brilliant. When they released the first live action remake is when I stated to notice Disney's standards for animation was lowering. I think this is because they started to hire based on whats between peoples legs and what shade of skin they have.
These remakes are a sign of a creatively bankrupt company. I remember when the live action Beauty and the Beast came out, and I thought it was a stupid idea. (I later watched it on Netflix, and it was pretty bad.) Then they announced the next project, and I realized this was going to be a pattern. It was then I swore I wouldn't give them my money and reward them for abject laziness. There's a reason animation exists - the creators get to show stuff that won't work in live action such as expressiveness in animals. Some animation is just not going to translate well to live action. I remember when Disney used to produce wonderful new movies. Seems like a lifetime ago.
You say this yet y'all are mad that they didn't cast a white woman for Ariel 💀 people are literally mad that they didn't deny Bailey the role based on her skin color
Disney Purchased the rights to a Trinidadian musical, that was a revived on Broadway called “Once On This Island” in 2020. The book was also written by a Trinidadian woman called Rosa Guy. She was inspired by the original story but infused Trinidadian culture and mythology into her own and Original story. We all know why Disney brought the rights to it. The hypocrites. But if you mention that, you’re the one against representation.
My middle school put on a production of that musical, I really enjoyed it. Disney could have made a movie on that but they're too lazy and creatively bankrupt to do so.
@@ebonywilliams203exactly. They purchased the rights in 2020 and did nothing with it. They brought it to ensure no other studio makes it to compete with this turd.
1:01 As someone who has composed music since the age of eight, I always appreciated the depiction of Sebastian the crab as a composer. I actually felt ... positively represented (as most film depictions of fictional composers are negative), even if the character was a crustacean.

12:00 Ariel was unable to swim in the 1989 "The Little Mermaid" as a human. In the scene where Ariel wants to stop Ursula from marrying Eric, Sebastian has to send some barrels, for her to float on, so the Dolphins can send her toward the wedding barge.
Also, not to mention, in the same movie when Ariel had to use a barrel to float on, Flounder had to help carry her to the boat as fast as possible to crash the wedding and save Prince Eric from Ursula's hypnosis, for this same reason.
Scuttle in the new movie isn't a seagull but a gannet. Its a different bird specie and they can stay underwater for about 30 seconds. But there's other stuff other than that which makes the movie more unrealistic
in the original, Triton only becomes warm to humans because Eric saved Ariel by stabbing Ursula with the boat. this is a key element of the plot. in the sludge they call a remake, Ariel stabs Ursula instead. Triton has no reason to trust humans now. the one thing they got right is having Ariel have her eyes on the side of her head

She would have been better cast as a hammerhead shark.
Imfaoooo
I would like to say though, Ursula WAS originally written to be Tritons sister and they added this in the Broadway musical (which seriously they should have just adapted instead). The reason Ursula isn't a mermaid from what I recall is her dabbling in dark magic on top of being banished for eating the palace citizens and craving the power of the triton, which was given to her brother on their fathers deathbed while she got his magic shell.
Honestly, this change would probably seem LESS stupid if they just added the song of Ursula singing "I want the good times back".
Yes but they ditched the idea so it is not canon. I think it was a good solution and cannot see why the hell they wanted to keep that now. It doesn’t make any sense to ”add” it to canon now. And it doesn’t really work like that.
@@flav2689 I'm glad they ditched that idea. Ursula doing those horrid things to her own niece and brother, would make her even more creepy and loathsome than she already is.

As a black man in extremely offended that they race swapped Ariel but didn't race swap Eric. That actually gives racist undertones.
True, they fake represent and actually make afro culture seem not good enough and undeserved to bring it to the big screen. Race swapping it's racist by itself, but diminishing men and making women feel even more shame for showing emotions and affection, only makes it even more disturbing.
It is rooted in racism. It's quite obvious at this point they hate white people

Ariel in 1989:
- A strong willed and independent young princess with a deep interest in the surface world, with a strong personality, able to argue with her father, Triton to defend her passions. A young woman who is always curious and inquisitive mermaid who loves to explore and collect items from the surface world; she saves a human from a burning ship wreck, which only deepens her admiration for the world above the waves.
Her actions during the storm kick start the chain of events that not only brings her together with her one true love, but also winds up resulting in Eric defeating Ursula, meaning that Triton has finally begun to see that some humans can be trusted; after all, one of them just saved his daughter's life. It's this plotline that makes Triton able to let his little girl go, and let her make her own path in life.
Ariel in 2023:
- Flavourless milk carton.
@bunnened...2913 yes
Your Triton theory scared me shitless, like wow. That's pretty fucked up when you think about this, but at the same time this is the most logical answer to Triton's multi ethnical daughters and their "killed by humans" mothers.
The logical answer would have been to say they're all adopted (like how Eric was adopted by the queen). But for whatever stupid reason, the audience is expected to believe that all the sisters are related by blood.
Tristan is polyamorous
Also very accurate to actual Greek mythology most of the men of Olympus including Neptune/triton(let's face it triton is Neptune) are pretty much manhoes

It was always going to be this movie that awoke the reaper from his slumber.
I also like how they made Eric adopted, literally just to make his royalty parents black.
But now he's not a "real" prince either. As soon as the queen or next inline relative has a legitimate child he's out on his ass. Maybe he can be kept on as an advisor or bodyguard or something. but they'd probably just kill him as a threat to the legitimate heir.

Many people complained about the MC being black in this one, being called racist by others.
Thing is, the problem isn't that she's black.
The problem is that the character in the original isn't. They changed it for the sake of changing it. That's the problem.
thanks for regurgitating what the video you just watched said, but youre wrong. the problem IS that shes black. because theres 0 reason to race swap her character. literally none. even in the sense of "diversity" and all that bullshit you shouldnt need a pre existing character to change her skin color to feel included. that means you are extremely weak and fragile and should not be making your own choices in life. people with even the slightest bit of IQ can relate to characters based on traits regardless of skin color, and if you cannot see past color of skin then YOU are the racist bigot. you dont strike someone and then cry when they hit you. same way you dont call people racist after changing a pre existing characters skin color for 0 reason or relevance to the plot whatsoever. people have a right to criticize dumb choices that are irrelevant to the plot that only serve to push an agenda.
They changed it because Disney is desperate for money and
representation = money.
So because she’s black
And delusional idiots like Ani Mat/ElectricDragon505 defend the race-swapping decision because we're racists and we need to know are place and shut up.

You're so much better at this than the Americans.
I will never understand why Disney has decided to shy away from any sort of romance. It seems counter-intuitive. The age difference between Ariel & the adopted prince seems massive. The guy looks ancient for an unmarried prince, while Ariel looks like a little kid. In the cartoon they made the sisters less attractive than Ariel. In this version they did the opposite. The pink-haired babe is gorgeous.
The fact that they gave a different version of Ariel’s sisters a different name but not Ariel herself is next to sad. And the dark-tanned version of a mermaid is not Ariel, that is Muriel.
why don't just make a new mermaid movie with another mermaid
This film isn't failing enough. For all the misandry & mean-spiritedness it deserves to fail more.
You haven't seen this weekend's drop. Disney likely bought it's own tickets in the U.S., last weekend
It is actually. I have checked recently.

Thankfully it's BOMBING globally.
@@missmerbella Now if we could just get the global audience to stop defending race swaps in online comments..
Honestly, I would be more sympathetic towards the leading female actress but after how she tried to act as if the live action is immensely superior to the animated one and how she only nitpicks the bad parts about the animated version to fit her narrative, then proceed to act as if the world is racist and out to get her while milking the sh t out of the fact that she got casted as Ariel with all those lame and boring photoshoot.
So really, at this point, I can't give a f about all the backlash she is getting and how she's the lead in a movie that's undoubtedly going to flop harder than a fish out of water.
She brought this on herself and I'll be happy if this is going to be the end of her career.

Another concept that was not acknowledged but would explain why Triton's daughters not looking like him. Ariel is considered the youngest and therefore their mother screwing every merman in the ocean and cucking Triton.
Triton’s baby mommas are lounging around in large seashells, collecting sea welfare and becoming obese.
That would be funny lol. Supposedly the reason Disney gives is each daughter represents a different ocean so that’s why they all look different but that literally makes zero sense and I literally can’t with Disney anymore 😭💀

10:14 I couldn't help but notice that those particular fish in front of Ariel are guppies which aren't even salt water fish.
Edit: I also want to mantion that in the original film, scuttle was a seagull while in this movie, she's a Gannett which is aren't even related to seagulls whatsoever. They didn't just gender swap scuttle, they also changed the type of species he is. They might as well have made an entirely new character.
They might as well have created a new movie tbh
Flotsam and Jetsam is also Electric eels, another FRESHWATER fish species
the woke folks at Disney are dumb.
It’s also jarring that in comparison towards the animated film and the live action scenes with the collection room. Triton in the animated film was fatherly stern, forcing his hand and looking back with regret after his daughter’s sadness in order to protect her. Here in the live action, they just have the father just snap and destroy the shit, that and it didn’t even have the statue? Like bruh. Had to finish with an essay about this piece and had to rewatch that underwater dumpster fire for reference comparisons I did like with the Dalmatian series. This is just a mess of a film.
"In the original, they talk to Scuttle on land, because obviously, he's a fucking bird, he has lungs, he needs air." The sheer annoyance in this sentence is killing me. 😂😂😂
In the original story, the Little Mermaid kills herself instead of killing the prince.
In the updated version, the audience kills themselves instead of killing Disney.

You don't need to put on your tin foil hat, because the backstory is dumber. All Ariel's sisters are from the same mother.

Yeh, The Little Mermaid animation is brilliant. It's actually one of my faves. Disneys early stuff are brilliant. When they released the first live action remake is when I stated to notice Disney's standards for animation was lowering. I think this is because they started to hire based on whats between peoples legs and what shade of skin they have.
These remakes are a sign of a creatively bankrupt company. I remember when the live action Beauty and the Beast came out, and I thought it was a stupid idea. (I later watched it on Netflix, and it was pretty bad.) Then they announced the next project, and I realized this was going to be a pattern. It was then I swore I wouldn't give them my money and reward them for abject laziness.
There's a reason animation exists - the creators get to show stuff that won't work in live action such as expressiveness in animals. Some animation is just not going to translate well to live action.
I remember when Disney used to produce wonderful new movies. Seems like a lifetime ago.
Go get a tan & audition.
Only good live action remake IMO was Jungle book. No wokeness in that either.

Disney Purchased the rights to a Trinidadian musical, that was a revived on Broadway called “Once On This Island” in 2020. The book was also written by a Trinidadian woman called Rosa Guy.

12:00 Ariel was unable to swim in the 1989 "The Little Mermaid" as a human. In the scene where Ariel wants to stop Ursula from marrying Eric, Sebastian has to send some barrels, for her to float on, so the Dolphins can send her toward the wedding barge.
Also, not to mention, in the same movie when Ariel had to use a barrel to float on, Flounder had to help carry her to the boat as fast as possible to crash the wedding and save Prince Eric from Ursula's hypnosis, for this same reason.
Finally someone noticed they chose a hammerhead shark to play Ariel
"Boring Romantic black holes"
Perfection. Got a good laugh out of me
Yeeah Scuttle beeing able to breathe UNDERWATER, totally makes sense! Also these sisters..... Representation at its finest Triton!
Scuttle in the new movie isn't a seagull but a gannet. Its a different bird specie and they can stay underwater for about 30 seconds. But there's other stuff other than that which makes the movie more unrealistic
in the original, Triton only becomes warm to humans because Eric saved Ariel by stabbing Ursula with the boat. this is a key element of the plot.
in the sludge they call a remake, Ariel stabs Ursula instead. Triton has no reason to trust humans now. the one thing they got right is having Ariel have her eyes on the side of her head
