What does the little mermaid and Hercules have in common?
How about a family tree. It would appear that Disney has been Secretly building a SINGLE Disney Universe all along. Sure this may sound ridiculous, but the evidence is there.

WAAAAAIIIIIIT A MINUTE, does this mean Pirates of the Caribbean is canonically connected. Calypso is the daughter of Atlas the titan that holds up the sky, the nephew of Cronus the father of Zeus (Zues and Atlas are cousins essentially), meaning she is the second cousin of Hercules/Heracles, and the second cousin once removed of Ariel.
Ooh, nice one.
Blaze12ification no because calypso is supposed to be stuck on an island
Blaze12ification Atlas is Kronos's nephew.
Remington Williams Just because she stuck on an island doesn't mean she isn't related to Atlas...
Wooops I looked at the family tree wrong.
“Zeus fell in love with a mortal woman”
This narrows it down to about half of Greece
Haha
Very true
Lol
Zeus cheated on his wife one to many times, Poseidon also does that but his wife doesn't really care.
@@__recon3047 She should tho Amphitrite was literally made his wife against her will to calm him
Theory:
Rapunzel's magic hair heals. Apollo is the God of music, archery, and healing. She is a daughter of Apollo. Cabin 7 for her.
Do u read percy jackson?
Understandable have a goodnight
(It's 10pm in my country)
and she got her power from the sun, which apollo is a god of

Hey MatPat, it’s been four years and I’m still waiting for a second episode explaining how they’re all connected, please.
MATPAT, PLEASE, PLEASE MAKE A PART TWOOOOOOOO
@@teresamoore1565 we’re all begging on our knees
SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ikr
i've been waiting
Part two!!!
Maybe Rapunzel's magical healing hair is because Apollo just decided to bless a flower one day to see what happens because- well he's a God
It was probably one of his dead lovers.
Wow. Also kinda like Daphne or Hycanith?
Watch the series
I hate the series, it makes little sense.
Maybe he is the god of light
It’s actually really common in Greek mythology for gods to have kids with mortals
Cuz them Olympians be hoes
*cough* Zeus
cough Percy Jackson cough

Zeus only had five kids with his wife! and had God knows how many mortals and god's

9:14 Actually the first historical story about Cinderella is the Greek story of Rhodopis who was an Egyptian slave which was given sandals, but a hawk stole one of them and brought them to the Pharaoh which searched for her, found her and they fell in love, so it's even more related to Greek history!
Greeks were the original storytellers. Most stories you can find something of striking similarity in Greek mythology
Correction is talking about the movie not the story in itself
(When Hades is a chill guy but the movie makes him a villain)

This actually makes a ton of sense; Triton is the titan of the sea, and since Ariel is his daughter she could be considered an Olympian herself.
Triton is a demi-god turned minor god, not a titan.
@@thathorsegirl5088 my bad, was thinking about Oceanus; so Ariel is actually Poseidon’s granddaughter then.
Not all the gods are Olympians. Only 12 are and they live on Olympus. Hades isn't considered an Olympian because he lives in Tartaros
@@lilyhartle5664 He doesn't live in tartarus he lives in the underworld. Tartarus is located in the underworld and is where the most evil beings were thrown in along with some of Uranus children because he didn't want them.
@@Raven_123 Tartarus is the name for the overall collected underworld as well as a specific region of the underworld.
Isn’t Percy Jackson the son of Poseidon so wouldn’t he be the cousin of Ariel and Hercules

When I heard the news my heart broke I didn’t want to believe it! We didn’t realize along with this channel and us, our host, our internet dad, our best friend has been growing with us! Years ago this was my very first Film Theory and it peaked my interest, this sparked my love for theories! I subscribed instantly and fell inlove with Game Theory and Film Theory! My brain was starving for knowledge and my heart pounded with love for video games and my favorite disney characters! These channels encouraged me to question everything and to never be ashamed of this nerdy and silly side of me that I once kept away. To H E double hockey sticks to what other people had to say, these channels are my favorite show and safe place from the world that tries to tear my down! I am so proud to say that I am the biggest fan of these channels! They live in my mind, forever engrained in my heart, for eternity! They always come back! These channels are why I am inspired to be who I am completely and unconditionally! I will miss Steph and her nugget voice, the bright light she brought to every gtlive, and the courage she gave me to be a women and have the guts to be just as if not cooler, smarter, and funnier that the guys to doubt me! I will miss MatPat and his fnaf filled brain! The dad jokes will never get old and the LORRRREEEEEEE will live rent free in our minds! There are no words to describe how much we will miss you and the strength you gave us to be open minded! You have helped mold us into creative thinker who say “toss the box we always look outside of it anyways!”, you have filled our hearts with love, respect and appreciation for the art that people share with us everyday on the internet, food, fashion, and of course video games! My heart broke but revisiting my favorite theories my heart is full of love and gratitude! Not a day a will go by where I don’t think about what thing community has done for me and my life! I encourage you to continue on not with sorrow or sadness but with love and peace, Make, Create, Inspire our next generation of theorist to be more than what society tells us to be but rather use it as a steppingstone to be so much more! We can wait till see what you have in store for us and we will be watching, waiting, and cheering you on every step of the way! OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN YOU WILL BE MISSED!!! Thank you MatPat for everything… We Love You Always 💚❤️💛💙 That’s not a theory that’s a fact!

The running gag with Lilo and stitch. When stitches crashes other Disney characters. He crashes Lady and the tramp, beauty and the beast, the little mermaid, Aladdin, the Lion King..etc
There's actually a few other things in different movies that connect them,
In Aladdin during a Whole New World they fly through a bunch of backgrounds from other movies
The Scar Skin in Hercules, like Matpat pointed out, implies they're in the same universe but it also doesn't really line up with Scar's death
Getting eaten alive by hyenas wouldn't preserve the fur but that's probably why he didn't try to connect it
Including China, which foreshadowed Mulan, Greece itself, and Egypt. Although, has Egypt ever appeared in any Disney films that we know of?

Me, a Percy Jackson fan: Well duh, Zeus is brother of Poseidon, who’s son is Triton. Hercules is Ariel’s Uncle.
Uncle?
Aren’t they first cousins once removed since Hercules and Triton would be cousins?

I think it depends on which source you look in to. When I learned greek mythology my teacher said that depending on the source.
@@melonid1750 yeah because Greek religion wasn't a thing per se, was a collection of religions with differences in myths between regions
Rhea did feed a stone to Kronos to protect Zeus

It is my favorite theory because of the opening XD
Yes I love this
I will subscribe to you for this!
It’s my favorite theory because...
...PJO
MATPAT!! I JUST FIGURED SOMETHING OUT!! In the clip of the little mermaid when Ursula was walking down the aisle, in the background are flags for each different kingdoms. There's a red one with a castle on it and most importantly, a purple flag with a yellow sun on it. THE SAME LOGO OF RAPUNZEL'S KINGDOM. Literally the identical symbol used. So, that immediately connects Rapunzel to the Little Mermaid. If the flag is up at their wedding, it would mean they were there. So maybe the earlier rulers of the kingdom were there too. Idk, but still!! I didn't notice it until it caught my eye and I was like OMG THATS RAPUNZELS SYMBOL!!
OMG YOU ARE A GENIUS
OMG!! It does look similar
oh sh*t ye I saw it
3000 studs collected, true theorist achieved
(Lego refrence)
To add to your story Rapunzel's dad is there and considering Ariel's story is in Denmark and Rapunzel's in Europe they're only 411 km away that can easily be done by boat especially since that wedding was on a boat.Boom.
I loved the fact that you made a song from Disney into your own little thing LOL it’s so hilarious
"Poseidon fork"
That's not a fork.
That's a Poseidon dinglehopper.
True because a fork has four points and a Dinglehopper has three.

Yep
flash news : ariel is related to hercules
greek mythology: no kidding
Ariel's mother died by humans. The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning explains why her mother is not in the picture, something we do not get for a ton of characters or princesses. Definitely recommend it, even if there may be some plot points overlooked.
Yes, by captain hook’s pirate gang
@TheFilmTheorists MatPat! I have a theory for you to cover! So recently I heard a theory about how Jack Frost from the Guardians is actually the BROTHER of Elsa's mom from Frozen. So basically how it works is that the theory states that after Jack "died" saving his sister, the Man in the Moon, AKA Manny as they call him, told her what he would do and bring Jack back as Jack Frost, all of this during the dark ages, so lots of magic. Manny also said that her first born child would have ice powers in honor of her brother who died protecting her. And so, she married the King of Arundel and became Queen (even thought that's not how it's supposed to work, but Frozen's had this problem in the past as you know) and her first born child was Elsa, and was born with ice powers. There's even a nod to this when the rock trolls ask the king and queen if Elsa was born with the powers or cursed, and they say born. And they definitely do look alike, or as much as they can since they would have went from rags to riches plus 10-20 years. But that's just a theory, a FAN THEORY! Thanks for reading! Aaaaand cut.
they wouldn't be the same, as both movies were made from two different companies. Rise of the gaurdians is by dream works and frozen is by disney.
Well that ruins the Jack Frost x Elsa fan fics lol
Helix The King YUS I would love to see a video of dat! ☆*:. o(≧▽≦)o .:*☆
Must say that it is an interesting theory but sry to burst ur bubble, but those are two different movie. Companies

But aren't all of the Greek mythological characters related and procreating with cousins and siblings???
oh
Because they don't have to worry about mutations through incest.
According to Rick Riordan, the god blood of demigods does not count. But it's not okay if demigod children from the same god date, it's not okay
Charlie Murr Yep, the Greeks pretty much made the Targareyns
Yup
Indeed this theory is true. Ariel is the first Greece princess since she has her King Triton dad and is the son of Poseidon. And Disney has said that Atlantica's home in the Mediterranean Sea and Eric Castle are somewhere in Italy. Disney changed the Danish history and the origin of the characters. These two movies are my favorite.🤩💜🧡
Hercules father is Zeus. Zeus brother is Poseidon. Poseidon is ariel grandfather. ( theory in three sentences)
Cosmicstar1 legit if you knew greek mythology this would be obvi
lol
Cosmicstar1 exactly
Clearly the title is for those who don't know the Mythology but the full theory itself connects more than just the two in the title
And Mulan is Amaterasu mother to us all.
Best intro ever

If you think about it, Hans Christian Andersen sounds like “Hans Kristoff Anna Sven”

that's where they got their names ...
yeah thats the point
And he wrote snow queen which inspired Frozen

THE BEGINNING GOT ME LIKE:
“Yup that’s MatPat for you.”
HELP I CANT STOP LISTENING TO IT
Peachyxx Fire lol me too
I have out smarted MatPat. There is a scene in the movie where Ursula says "Your Grandpappy Poseiden gave your father all the good stuff." This means by fact, she is related to herecules.
Poseidon gave her her shell necklace, too :)
Black Shadow You didn't outsmart him , that's what this video is about. And Hercules .
Yes but he assummed that was the same triton
Black Shadow please fact check your comments before you post them.
Zeus and Poseidon = Brothers 😱
Zeus’ child = Hercules 😱
Poseidon’s child = Ariel’s DAD 😱
Poseidon’s GRANDchild = Ariel 😱
Hercules + Ariel’s dad = 1st cousins
Hercules + Ariel = 1st cousins once removed 😱.
There you go, now don’t confuse yourself
This reminds me of the episode from little mermaid the animated series about the sea calliope. In that one you get to see king Triton in his younger days.
I thought Tarzan was connected to frozen because of the crashed ship🤔?
I'm really not okay with Matpat treating cameo eastereggs as canonical.
@Katelyn Cecelia lol um no.
@Katelyn Cecelia no dude, use your brain. The director on frozen who started the theory was screwing with people. If it was true, they wouldn't have different names than tarzans parents, different hair, different home countries, the timeline wouldn't be hundreds of years apart, Tarzan has guns, modern ships, cars, typewriters, cameras etc. Frozen has horses, ancient ships not motorized, nothing modern at all. The king and queen are not named John and Alice Clayton. And if it was true Disney wouldn't have spoiled it they would have done a big reveal in a movie. It's very easy to deduce that it's not true.
@Katelyn Cecelia but if you still believe that Tarzan is their brother I know a Nigerian prince in need of a loan.
@UCXkBDWgJ7RI1cxkcm-5i70w lmao you're a psycho.
He can take any songs rhythm and make the lyrics sound so good but also match the theory
This probably wont get very high in comments - especially due to the lateness of this post. But with the Cinderella magic idea, the fairy godmother could be the Greek Goddess Hecate. Hecate is Goddess of the mist - the magical "curtain" if you will that disguises the Godly world from Mortals. Hecate can manipulate the mist to make mortals see something that isnt there essentially. The Godmother could be Hecate, using her magic to manipulate the sight of Cinderella and her peers (pretty sure that the mist-magic does run out after a while (hence the clock striking 12 thing). But hey, this is just a thought :)
A COMMENT THEORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s not a thought...
ITS A THEORY
You are probably the only other person in the world who knows who hecate is
George Hamlin nooo
If I'm correct, if mortals think too much about the most, they can see through it, which could explain why Cinderella's step-mother thought she looked so familiar

Repunzel is a child of Apollo...
hear me out on this
Her story is that a drop of sunlight came down from the heavens and grew into a flower, then when the queen was pregnant she got sick. She then drank a magical soup made from that flower, saving her and the baby.
Apollo is the Greek god of healing, music and the sun (and archery but that is unrelated)
Repunzel was saved by a magical SUNLIGHT flower, can HEAL with her hair, her hair is activated by SINGING and she is a great SINGER.
AND it just happens the only thing she remembers from her childhood is the little SUN decoration from her crib.
Jordan Doles I like this theory!!!!!
Pretty good, I like it.
Oh my god
Matpat should do a theory about that (and credit you )
Jordan Doles ppq
Theory: Ariels mom was a siren from Greek mythology.
King Triton, likely when he was just a prince, and Ariels mom fell in love in Neverland. Prince Tritons crew was lured by sirens and crashed the ship. Sirens often do that. However, Price Triton has a gift from his dad, the triton, that turned him into a merman, allowing him to survive. Ariels mom keeps to herself and sings about wanting more than just to cause ship accidents. She wants love for more than just her voice. Triton hears her and shows that he is a merman to her, and immune to the sirens lure. They talk and he wants to show her, his home. But she can't breathe underwater. Prince Triton asks for help from his sister (who I am assuming is just back home with Poseidon) to get her a day under the sea. She has to give something up though, so she chooses her ability to tall. The deal is struck and she loves the sea so much, she wants to live there. She lives with the other mermaids at Neverland and adapts to what they do; drown people. Soon she feell pregnant with one of their many children...if you want more, lmk
but sirens are half bird
You could also connect this to Moana because the giant crab mentions sebastian at the end. Please like so he can see it.
mjwbus I remember that when u watched the movie
Wait...i didnt know that!
And lilo and stich are related too!
dont forget tarzan!
mjwbus wow... yeah
Rapunzel's powers may be coming from the sun god Apollo as the flower is associated with sun and also Apollo is the god of healing and music as it explains how Rapunzel can heal peaple and sing so well😂

Also Matpat: Never makes another video
Me: Why don't you finally continue with that for Christmas as a follow up to the deadliest disney movie trilogy from last year.
MatPat: Ariel has iduna and agnarr's ship
Disney: yeah we're taking that ship back
Well it's not like that was the only connection between the two films. If anything Frozen II created an even stronger connection, as well as one that explains the timeline of these films better.
Yeah, I do agree they’re connected, but not from the ship. The biggest issue is that The Little Mermaid does not take place in Denmark. The original story wasn’t set in Denmark (it’s quite vague, but the few descriptions there are are more like somewhere in the middle of the North Atlantic), and all the setting clues in the movie show somewhere much warmer. The official word of God from Disney is that it’s somewhere in the Mediterranean, and all the animals and plants match that. When it comes to Grimsby (and Eric as well), you really just have to determine which is more likely: a man with a Danish name in the Mediterranean, or an entire Mediterranean ecosystem in Denmark?
Yeah I kind of forgot about frozen 2 while rewatching this
@@Thomas_H._Smith I request elaboration
@@cockathiel5319 yeah and if Ariel is Herc’s cousin I guess Mediterranean would make sense. Doesn’t explain Caribbean animals like Sebastian and Flounder, but…

Yes, I have to know more! Ariel's mom may have been from Neverland (they do look similar.) Maybe the sheepdog on Eric's ship was the one from 101 Dalmatians! So many questions left unanswered!

This makes me wish you could do an entire Disney family tree theory video with an awesome family tree sketched out. XD
Did you mean to go all Descendants on us by saying: "You ain't seen nothing yet"?
Also, it's a practical guarantee that Elsa's ice powers were in fact inherited from Khione, goddess of snow and ice and daughter of Boreas, the god of the North Wind. Her name should be familiar to any Percy Jackson fan out there who's read The Lost Hero. Also Rapunzel's powers- they are somehow related to Apollo, god of the sun, healing, and music. Ba dum ching!
nice but do you think she could have been given the gift by Apollo since it is possible because posiden gave the gift of shape shifting to a mortal family.
Alex Harris of course, because at the beginning of the movie a drop of sunlight falls down from the sky and grows the flower that is made into the tea that is given to Rapunzel's mother before she gives birth, so the magic from the drop of sunlight infused into Rapunzel's DNA and gave her the powers and impossible head of hair.
Also Apollo is the god of the sun and it was a drop of SUNLIGHT!
And the magic could be Hecate

Random request, The legend of Korra or/and the last airbender (they are related) have so many loop holes it might make a pretty good theory. I noticed you put a picture of Korra into one of your previous videos so I know you know her and I think you would be interested in it too. For example, what do the red lotus truly want? Do they really just want world chaos? Aren't their Earth benders in the fire nation and vice versa? It's not like no English people live in America. Pls consider
What? I love matpats vids, I think they r epic
Hey MatPat, I have an additional theory, well Diet Theory, linking Hercules to Lion King.
In Lion king they mention past kings in the stars, the lion constellation most famous in the sky is named Leo. This is a reference to the greek lion Nemean, who is known for being a large, strong lion. He is seen in a quick scene in Hercules where Nemean is battling Hercules.
This lion looks very similar to that of Scar, and it is most likely that, that hide you mentioned, is really Nemean, not Scar. This makes sense because after defeating Nemean, Hercules would most likely take his hide as a trophy.
But since Mufasa says the past lion kings are in the stars, it stands to reason that Nemean is an ancestor to Simba, which is even supported by the fact Scar looks like Nemean.
This adds to why Simba's family is the one which rules Pride Rock and not some other family, and also means Hercules killed an ancestor of everyone's favorite lion family.
TL;DR Hercules killed a famous greek Lion, which is mostly likely Simba's ancestor. But hey thats just a Theory, a Diet Theory.
Awesome1 nice!
Awesome1 summarize this pls im to lazy to read
Awesome1 interesting...forgive me if I missed something but hos do you know thats nemean and not scar? Cause it looks a LOT like scar
Rythan Hemphill the whole point is that Hercules killed the Nemean Lion. Since Scar was killed by the Hyenas at the end of Lion King it wouldn't make any sense for Hercules to have his hide.
Rythan Hemphill he doesn't
But Poseidon has some children
*Percy Jackson*
Same father, different universe. This is Disney we're talking about here, not Riordan's stories.
Though technically on the books it says "Disney Hyperion" so they could be in the same universe. I guess it depends on the way you look at it.
SMM9673 I was just joking around. As someone said, though, the books are labeled “Disney Hyperion” so they could be in the same universe.
So I thought I'd clarify that Disney and Rick Riordan's story's are related because Disney publishes his books and is just another brand under disney going by "Disney Hyperion" soo.......maybe they're in the same universe...maybe.
PERCY YESSSSSSS!!!! I’m child of Aphrodite what are you?
he should work on the Pixar theory (again) and continue this string to see if the two chains link together (tho he might not want to. because the Pixar theory keeps growing)

There is a movie that shows what happens to ariels mother. Its called "Ariels beginning"
Yeah, I have it on DVD (spoiler: she was killed by a pirate ship)

God that movie sucked
@Niamh J yeah! Captain Hook's pirate ship!
Niamh J captain hooks pirate ship?
Fun fact: Zeus dated his own Aunt. THE MORE YOU KNOW
Uh wha ugh....awkward...
*He’s married to his own sister, Hera*
(I think, Feel free to correct me)
@@bidoofo wasn't Hera a mortal who Zeus wanted to do but she said no so Zues became an injured swan so Hera brought him inside feeling sorry for the injured swan (Zeus) and the Zeus did her when he was a swan and then he turned her into a god or something. Correct me if I'm wrong, my mythology is a bit rusty
@@bidoofo yeah Zeus couldn’t keep his Tiny thing inside his pants
@@IrishGeckoGuy all that was true but Hera was a god when that happened
There was actually a theory that Mother Gothel from Tangled is Meg from Hercules
That can't be true though, Gothel is too manipulative selfish and ruthless. Meanwhile, you have Meg who sacrificed herself twice for a guy she loved, something that ironically enough Eugene would do for Rapunzel in the climatic moment. Nope, our sassy girl Meg isn't evil, nor could she ever be the wicked Gothel..
I'm so glad I found this, I love Greek mythology (Thank you Percy Jackson.) And the name Hercules bugged me so much! If you're going to write a movie based on Greek mythology get the Greek names not the Roman ones!
angely ramos oh my gods YES?!? As soon as I saw Hercules and Ariel. I instantly go into the part of my brain where all the Percy Jackson/Greek Mythology is, I think. Zeus, Poseidon. Oh wow 😮 Percy and Ariel are related!!!!! And anyone who was a decent knowledge of Greek Mythology would know that Hera attempted to kill pretty much ANYONE who in any way, shape or form relates to Zeus cheating on her 😂
I almost threw up when I found out that Hera is nice to Herc in the movie
OMGODS yes! Thank you!
Wait.. so is Percy Jackson Ariel’s uncle?? I mean it’s a weird theory but a theory none the less
Actually herculaes is Tritons cousin
Half-uncle? I dunno how these things work but in essence, yeah!
But HANG ON. Considering that Athena is a child of Zeus and niece of Poseidon, that means she's - family-tree-wise - Percy's cousin. Since Annabeth is her daughter... Percy is dating his cousin's daughter.
Then again Rick Riordan said fuck you to the genealogy of the gods in the books, so I guess I can give 'em the middle finger too.
Oli O yeah it's weird but true
@@redgoldcrown3990 Yeah...

Percy Jackson is related to Ariel 0-0

I still trust in Rick Riordan's gods. Poseidon in a Hawaiian shirt is better than fish man.

Agreed. Too bad Disney is for 5 year olds who don't get that kind of humor :/
(Not saying that they are bad. Just young audience as obvious as that is.)
BladeOfFlames Productions i just watched Hercules for the first time today, and i was looking at all the gods and going "eh, rick riordan's versions actually seem cooler, so imma stick with those descriptions"
I need a full version of that intro
IraklI me to
IraklI meh, not his greatest singing/lyrical work
Lazar Lilic i mean yeah but still
What's the real song title?
*For research*
I’m so glad someone finally acknowledged that Hercules is so underrated.
I think I can add Lion King to this chain. Remember when Hercules is seen wearing that lion pelt that looks like Scar? That was the pelt of the Nemean Lion, a monster Hercules killed during his adventures. We even see a brief version of that fight during the musical number Zero to Hero.
Now last we see of Scar in The Lion King he was defeated by Simba and fell off Pride Rock. We then see him get attacked by his own hyena minions.
You might assume that Scar was killed there. But what if Scar survived that attack and then was banished from the Pride Lands. Scar then started to wander around and eventually found his way to Greece where he got back his mojo attacking humans. The Greeks then gave Scar a new moniker. The Nemean Lion. And there Scar lived until he was defeated by Hercules who then proceed to skin him and ware his pelt.
Hey that's preeetty good mate
gj, but the nemean lion's fur couldn't be hit by a sword or bow + arrows, and Hercules hit it in the mouth after figuring that out. Go read PJO or the greek myths.

Yep. And hercules is not ariel's cousin, but first cousin once removed
well if percy is dating his niece then this isnt even that weird
@@kmlgsn *first cousin once removed. niece would require athena and percy to be siblings, but they're cousins.
since percy jackson doesn't actually make an appearance in greek myth...no
@@jacobw4612 first COUSIN once removed. Cousin is generally just a blanket term for extended family also
I think your right about these Disney movies being related because when Cinderellas step mom gets the fairy godmothers wand she uses like if she has used magic before.
