Okay so I recently, finally, watched Wish and I have some thoughts. Overall, not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, but still has a lot of fundamental story problems and I've got to get them off of my chest. I'll mostly be focused on Magnifico because I think his motivations and arc largely represent the problem with the overall theme.
Okay so my biggest problem with Magnifico is his motivation. His tragic backstory. How on earth does he go from losing his whole family to thinking, the only way he can prevent that from happening again is to grant wishes? The logic doesn't track. It almost makes sense in his creating a kingdom where he protects everyone and "doesn't even charge rent," but it does not make sense with his wish granting. Having a great need to be control to make sure he doesn't lose anyone ever again can be a compelling motivation for a villain, where we see lines crossed that don't justify the intent, but in the movie, he's too self-absorbed to seem to have any actual care for the people of Rosas.
I think if the motivation was changed to something like Magnifico had once been a bright-eyed, enthusiastic wish granter who blindly believed all wishes were good but learned the hard way that that wasn't true could have been a better fit for the overall goal of the movie. Imagine that he granted a wish for a wicked person who used that wish to hurt others, or if Magnifico granted a wish but that wish ended up ruining the person's life because what they wanted wasn't what they needed (i.e. Remember The Princess and the Frog? Dig a little deeper) and that person could have went after Magnifico and blamed him for their troubles (harkening back to We Don't Talk about Bruno). This would be an understandable tragic backstory for Magnifico, and better explain why he's so careful about the wishes he grants. And, perhaps the reason he keeps the wishes he doesn't want to grant is to keep the people in his kingdom docile. No one will be angry with him for not granting their wishes if he makes them forget them and lose that drive and motivation, which makes more sense than the unexplained hording them like he does in the movie? Why does he keep them in the movie other than admiring the wishes? It doesn't make sense to me.
This would give Asha more of a reason to oppose him, if it's shown how his desire to not get hurt or to inadvertently cause hurt turned into a paranoia where he drains people of wishes to fly or play music that inspires others. And, as a side note, we need to see more of how Rosas is a kingdom of people who lack drive and motivation, where only those younger than 18 have that special part of them that inspires them to chase after a dream (something that Astor Rhymemaster touched on). Because that's the point of wishes, right? That's the point of the entire Disney canon. A dream is a wish your heart makes. That star can only get you so far, it takes hard work and determination. It's wanting something better in life, it's dreaming of leaving behind all you know to chase after a tangible light. It's finding a new dream, it's finding a new wish as you grow and learn about yourself and the world.
I don't think the movie Wish understood what makes wishes so important in Disney stories. You know what wishes do? They ignite change. It's not about getting what you want, it's about finding the courage to chase after something better. Ariel wants to be where the people are, but really she wants to be somewhere where others are willing to understand her and in the end, she finds that and makes amends with her father, who finally is willing to see her for who she is. Rapunzel wants to see the lights, and that desire pushes her to leave a tower she's been trapped in her whole life, learning that the world is not as cruel and cold as her abusive mother told her. Cinderella wants to go to the ball, to dance with people who treat her as a person and not a servant of cinders and ash. That wish is granted by a fairy godmother and gives her a hope that is worth fighting for, a hope that helps her reclaim what is rightfully hers; a glass slipper that fits only her and the love that comes with it.
Wishes inspire change. The movie should have been about that. Magnifico could have been right, that some wishes inspire negative change that can drag down multiple people. The kingdom of Rosas could have been so placid because change is scary. Maybe Magnifico could have convinced people, after taking their wish, that it wasn't worth it. Maybe the wish ceremonies could have changed so it wasn't portrayed as some sort of lottery everyone looks forward to, but Magnifico would grant wishes on the spot if he decided they were good and worthwhile, and he would lock away the wishes that would cause trouble and tribulations. 18 year olds could be enthusiastic to give him their wishes, thinking they were surely good and worth granting, only to forget their wish and be told that their wish would have only brought about their unhappiness, this would have justified a more solemn tone in the kingdom, setting up a world where people are mostly downtrodden, thinking their wishes are bad and pointless and they're better off without them. Imagine Cinderella or Rapunzel being told their wishes weren't good, reinforcing all the things their abusive families tell them, taking away that hope and courage to find something better for themselves.
Here's where the true conflict could come in. Asha could be onto this from the beginning, and her opening song could have been about this concern that the people who didn't get their wishes granted aren't willing to try at all. (Because, after all, why doesn't Sabino play music at all? Having that taken from him would take so much joy and creative expression from his life!) But why does Asha know something is amiss?
Simon.
Imagine that Magnifico has a strict rule not to ever share your wish with another person because then it wouldn't come true. It makes sense with our own superstitions, and then makes it so that no one knows anyone else's wishes. Maybe your best friend changes so drastically after giving up their wish, but you believe, like everyone else, that their wish would have only caused suffering. What can you do about it? Well what if Simon told Asha about his wish? What if Asha knew his wish wasn't dangerous and couldn't imagine a way that it could go wrong? That would give her a reason to doubt Magnifico and put more emphasis on how Simon has lost his drive like all the other adults in the kingdom. And it can also emphasize in the end that sharing your wishes and dreams with others can be a powerful thing. Just the act of sharing your dreams can inspire others to go after their own, and they can give you the encouragement to chase your wish too. Wishes inspire change, love gives you the courage to make it happen.
Imagine if the star boy used to be a human, who wished to help others and lost his humanity to do it. Imagine his wish confirms Magnifico's belief, that wishes cause suffering because star boy lost his tether to earth and is separated from the people he loves. Imagine how he foils Asha who also wants to grant everyone's wishes. Imagine him ensuring she doesn't make the same mistake he did while she gives him a reason to change again, to anchor himself to humanity again because he loves her enough not to leave for forever.
Imagine the movie confirming that, yes, change is scary. Chasing your dreams won't always make things better. You might fail more than you succeed and some wishes cannot coincide with each other, leading to grief and strife. But some wishes are worth it. Sometimes, chasing after something better and failing is worth leaving a worse situation. Sometimes taking that chance is worth it, and, like in all fairy tales, if you are kind and generous and act with love, that will make all the difference in the end.
Also, I know everyone wished for a Magnifico and Amaya evil power couple, but imagine if Magnifico was truly in love with Amaya, as he is in the movie, but that love is eventually his undoing. Like Amaya leaps in front of Asha, and Magnifico stops or redirects his attack because she's the one thing he loves more than himself and that is the weakness that Asha and co can take advantage of. Imagine Amaya keeping Magnifico in the mirror and he gets to dote on her from his imprisonment for forever. I'm just saying. At least 30 sickos like me would be into that. Imagine the depth it would give to the themes of love and change and wishing and how acts of love make all the difference.
Alright, I'll get off my soap box. I just really wish Wish could have been stronger because these fairy tales Disney is famous for matter. They really do. But the movie feels too stale and shallow and too much of a cash grab that knows the outline of a disney musical, but is unable to understand the heart of why they work.

Hey so this is really just a dumb I thought I’d put up. I haven’t even watched Wish tbh but I have been obsessed with this song, only the demo version. But even with it being the best of all the songs, it still has some weird lyrics and lines I felt I wanted to change. I only did this from the simple idea of love songs and stars/space as a central idea. I didn’t change much really, just changed what I thought set it back from being the best. I don’t know if really made it that better but I just put what has been coming to my head while I sang it plus some line I really tried to make sound better, with some help from bingeing Jonah Who Two’s videos on rewriting some of Wish’s songs and listening to his reasonings he gave the lyrics he chose. Also shout out to Astor Rhymemaster cause I watched her video on a wish song too and binged some of her vids
Anyway here’s what I got:
If happiness was a tangible thing
It would be you
If you’d have told me the feeling you'd bring
I’d think it untrue
People search for a wonder like you
All of their lives
You still amaze me after all this time
You pull me in like some kind of wind
Mesmerized by the hold I’m in
Leave you here, I'm not gonna
I gonna
Love you as you are
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs
(Wow) What’s pain when I look at you no way
I could explain you even if I tried to
I'll never dream like I used to
If someone tried to hurt you,
I would spark with such compassion
I love you in ways you can’t imagine
Without you's like a famine, I hope
It would be all right to stay right here beside you
And Love you as you are
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs
If you’re ever feeling like you're lost
I'll come find you
Light speed jumps, there's no space I won’t fly across
To be right by you
And when the world has left you feeling exhausted
I'll remind you
And love you as you are
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

Have you seen Calxiyn Cares Too Much's videos (on YouTube) on Hazbin Hotel's songs & why a lot of them don't work the best?
It's been a bit since I've watched them, but she's apparently got some theatre credits to her name & has made super in depth break downs (sometimes literally syllable by syllable) on why several of the Hazbin songs are clunky & whatnot. If you can't quite put your finger on why a certain part of a song felt off, her videos might help if needed!
I look forward to reading your next break downs on Hazbin/Helluva things, it's always a pleasure to see your posts on my dashboard!
I appreciate you Anon, as I have never heard of this creator before. I have been listening to musical theory through creators like Sideways, Astor Rhymemaster, Jonah Who Two, Charles Cornell, and Maxwell Greene. I also try to intertwine their knowledge of music and musicals into the broader circuit of multi-media technicalities conveyed through creators like Lindsey Ellis and Dan Olsen.
I will definitely look into Calxiyn's videos and I will be referencing most if not all of these creators throughout the essay as well. As I said, I do not have the ethos of being a professional in this field, but I am fascinated by concepts like music theory and perhaps my essay can contribute to a sharing of knowledge and draw attention to the actual professionals who have taught me.
I am always open to recommendations. Please never shy from reaching out.

I haven't watched Moana 2, and I'm not planning on doing so, but I have listened to "Can I get a Chee Hoo?" and I didn't think it was that bad, but I guess I was wrong. The music is pretty decent, but the main thing I have a problem with are the lyrics. I can tell that they're trying to mimic Lin-Manuel Miranda's style, but it's not that easy. The rhymes are messy, and the song is just not telling any story. Also many words could be just replaced and it would be so much better (still not on the level of the first Moana). Many sentences do not make any sense, and are just created to be the more interesting rhymes, but it doesn't work. The fact that it's the Rock "singing" it doesn't help as well. I'm not gonna lie, he is just not a good singer, and "Can I get a Chee Hoo?" is not that easy to sing, especially the Chee Hoo part. I watched Astor Rhymemaster's video on that song, and it's a perfect review, I really recommend it, it goes to more details of why the rhymes don't work etc. If you liked the song, that's good, but really don't try to say it's as good as "You're welcome" or even better, I saw people saying it, and I am in shock.

Astor Rhymemaster is a lyricist youtuber that breaks down why Wish songs are uniquely bad from a production standpoint to a story standpoint. Yes they bash the movie a lot, but at least you can't say they haven't watched the movie and they don't have the expertise to analyze and explain why this stuff was bad
In fact, I specified: I have beef with people who have not seen it and copy-paste hate comments online just to look cool. 8/10 people fall into this category. The other 2 are people who know their job, alright. Btw I still think a person should be free to like a song even if a youtuber/producer said it’s bad?

Definition: shit
With the Farms still struggling only one of those links actually works lol
And it's to a post by Mollie Rhymemaster, or whatever she's going by these days. Yes, the crazy bitch who went on an absolute rage bend when she got kicked out of the Sketchy Huntsman for being racist. Because of course she'll never tell anyone on the Farms the real reason why she got kicked, so she'll say it was over the onsen scene. Which, yeah, tangentially it was. But I saw screenshots where she was being racist about it because she wasn't getting her way and refusing to understand why anyone would want the scene kept in and speaking over a Japanese member of the SH about it who offered their perspective.
She's a vindictive little weasel with anger issues and is abusive to anyone who doesn't lick her boots. She's also incredibly ableist, treating myself and at least one other autistic individual in the Tundra like garbage and writing off our social issues due to autism as just something you can 'learn to get over'. Yes, because as we all know you can just 'learn' to get over a neurological differences. Once we've 'learned' the trick to being normal everything is perfectly okay! It's perfectly acceptable in her eyes to cut down someone who looks up to her with harsh words and insults because she cannot stand the fact that he's neuroatypical.
It's totally not unhinged at all to go screaming at someone, saying they're abusive because they didn't agree with all the criticism given on their written work and wanted a discussion and clarification over it. Because that's my experience with her. In her mind you have to shut the fuck up and not question when the Great Mollie or Mollie Friend gives you criticism and how dare you question Her great wisdom. She's perfect and knows everything and you best listen to her or else she'll do everything she can to slander you. After all, notice how she cuts off screenshots she takes. Almost as if anything that might be said below might contradict what she says or something. Who knows. But I wouldn't trust this woman half as far as I could throw her.
She left the Tundra saying she stayed in the server purely to gather dirt on everyone in it in case she needed it. When left claimed she wished the project success and yet talks constantly about why it will fail and blah blah. Salty because she was kicked off a project she begged to volunteer for and then got angry volunteers don't get paid.
That one. Her. Totally someone you can trust. For sure.
She was also kicked out of @sytokun's project as well and he can also speak to her behaviour if he so wishes.

Here we go folks
So I was tagged by the ever so lovely @useless-protagonist (who tags me all the time but I never do them UNTIL NOW)
Rules are: List 10 songs you’re obsessed with right now & tag 10 other people
You of course don’t have to if you don’t want to, but is all cool and whatever.
 Cosmic Love by Florence & The Machine
Bitter Water by The Oh Hellos
New Rules by Dua Lipa
For the Dancing and the Dreaming composed by John Powell
Hat Trick by Johnathan Thulin ft Derek Minor
Broken Pieces by Apocalyptica ft Lacey Sturm
I Will Be There from the Count of Monte Cristo
My Love, My Life from the Mamma Mia 2 soundtrack (and can I just say despite having not seen the first Mamma Mia I nearly cried hearing this)
Jekyll and Hyde by Johnathan Thulin ft Rapture Ruckus
Time to Time by Khai Dreams 
I really recommend Bitter Water, Cosmic Love, and Time to Time tbh.
