funniest disney history facts i can think of atm

literally EVERYBODY thought the lion king was gonna flop and pocahontas would be their greatest movie ever made. people begged to ditch lion king and work on pocahontas.

the reason robin hood ends so abruptly is that there was an actual ending planned and storyboarded but the crew spent too long arguing about everyone’s fursonas to finish animating it

madam mim was way less comedic in the original book but because her character was too similar to maleficent (who was in their latest film at the time), the sword and the stone crew decided to differentiate her by making her fucking hilarious

when making a goofy movie, jeffrey katzenberg (studio chairman at the time) told bill farmer to give goofy “a normal voice.” farmer, who had been voicing goofy for eight years at that point, including in the goof troop show that a goofy movie was a sequel to, was very confused. after making an attempt they decided to scrap that note completely.

as of march 2023, farmer is still voicing goofy, and tony anselmo has been voicing donald since 1986. the 2017 reboot of ducktales, which was slated as “wanting to do for donald what goofy movie did for goofy,” featured both actors as those characters; they had also been doing the voices for the original ducktales and goof troop/goofy movie. all the times goofy and donald interact in the 2017 ducktales however, donald was voiced by guest star don cheadle as a joke

current voice of mickey mouse bret iwan has stated that he has attempted to play kingdom hearts and did not do well

disneyland’s current world of color halloween overlay features a plot that is basically “the disney villains simultaneously adopt a goth kid” and i love it

people will make jokes about “well math says that the beast would’ve been 11 when he was cursed” well that was actually the original intent, but a flashback scene of baby beast was scrapped because he looked “too much like eddie munster”

when disney sent a representative to pixar to check on toy story production, she was like “this is all great! what style of music are you thinking” and they were like “for what” “for the songs” “we uh. we weren’t gonna have. any songs” and she went dead silent and then went “i have to make a call” and left the room

saludos amigos and the three caballeros were made as ww2 propaganda. the government commissioned disney to make movies to make latin america like them so that they wouldnt side with the nazis and provide them an in to invade, and latin america really liked donald duck so

saludos amigos was apparently the first time many usamericans realized that latin american people were like. people. film historian alfred charles richard jr said that the film “did more to cement a community of interest between peoples of the americas in a few months than the state department had in fifty years”

while latin america generally liked both films, chilean cartoonist rené rios boettiger fucking hated the chilean segment of saludos amigos, seeing the main character of pedro the plane as a weakass bitch, so in response he created condorito, the most popular comic character in all of latin america

disney wanted to adapt ts eliot’s old possum’s book of practical cats. his widow adamantly refused, and then sold the rights to andrew lloyd webber bc he wanted to make it sexy and she said “tom would’ve liked that”

in case you haven’t seen the defunctland, walt disney wanted epcot to be a futuristic utopia where he was basically the dictator. then he died so they just made it another theme park

speaking of defunctland the first defunctland video was on disneyworld’s alien attraction and please watch it. please it’s so funny

after the huge failure of the black cauldron disney was going to shut down its animation department. the department tried to convince them to keep them alive by showing them the one scene they had finished for the next movie– the mouse burlesque from the great mouse detective. it worked

the only attraction the black cauldron ever got was in tokyo disneyland where they put a tour under cinderella’s castle where everyone had to escape the disney villains trying to kill them, only to end at the horned king and the cauldron, who would try to sacrifice them to satan. this tour was popular but was closed in the early 2000s as the tunnels didn’t fit earthquake regulations and i want it in disneyworld so bad

walt disney once referred to his unionizing workers, led by goofy’s creator art babbitt, as “commie sons of bitches,” and i want a mickey build-a-bear that calls me a commie son-of-a-bitch whenever i squeeze its paw

Disney Song! Yuu [Cult Edition: Lost Kingdom, Now Localised]

... somehow, the Disney Empire continues to surprise me with its takeover. Yuu's largely aware of Kingdom of Hearts, but they are not willing to risk any lives after their necromancy incident. But with overly compulsive brothers and a curiosity that kills, perhaps it was a bad idea. (Spoiler alert: it was.)

MASTERLIST

"... Yuu." Sebek calmly intoned, terrifying everyone with his lack of aggressiveness, "You are an absolute natural disaster."

"What part of them and that is natural?" Epel questioned with an incredulous look as he pointed at the haunted-looking ruins in the distance, partially visible under the watery black void that made up the sky, "The thing's standing upside down!"

Jack's head suddenly popped up from within a hole in the ground, "EVERYONE SHUT UP AND DIG." His once fluffy white ears twitched furiously and sprayed dirt everywhere, "I don't plan on dying in a cave because one of us is a god!"

Yuu cautiously stepped up, "I can-"

"No singing."

Yuu stepped back down.

To find out how Yuu and their first years ended up stuck in a cave hosting the most terrifying ruins in existence- the upside down part was a bonus, it was very ominous and forebodding in general-, we'll have to go back to 5 hours ago...

✾✾✾

"Hey prefect, how did you know that forbidden song about necromancy?" Ace piped up, juggling between a determined Grimm and Deuce while he guarded his plate of omurice, "You know, the one that made you summon the skeletons of the Ramshackle ghosts."

Yuu blinked, looking away with an awkward laugh as they clutched their broom, "Funny story, I... didn't know it was a lost song? Like, I wasn't aware its origins tied to the lost song exactly...?"

They can't admit that the entire Twisted Wonderland was an alternate come-to-life version of a famous entertainment company back in their world, can they?

Ace hummed, scarlet eyes holding a curious glint, "Hmm, so... are there any other songs you know that might be actually lost songs?"

Yuu paused, "Maybe?"

✾✾✾

Currently, the Ramshackle prefect was trying to whack Ace with their broom with Deuce and Grimm's gleeful assistance, "- shouldn't have listen to you at all you stupid Ace-"

The low, mournful wail echoing from the ruins halted everyone's actions as hollow voices bellowed.

どんな時だって たった一人で~

運命忘れて生きてきたのに~

突然の光の中 目が覚める 真夜中に~

Jack let out a deep rumble, ears tucked against his head, "That is definitely not Yuu's singing, and what language is that?"

Yuu blinked as they listened closer, "It sounds... like a language from my homeworld."

Deuce glanced at the prefect, still staring at the ruins as though it would suddenly attack them, "Are you saying we're in your world??"

"... your world is really depressing." Ace got a smack on the back of his head for that.

Yuu snapped back, mind whirring in panic, "This isn't my world you dolt." But it isn't Twisted Wonderland either?? Did they somehow travel to another world??

静かに 出口に立って~

暗闇に光を撃て~

The dark atmosphere suddenly lifted as the ruins beamed a bright light, momentarily blinding everyone as they squeezed their eyes tight.

願いを口にしたいだけさ~

家族にも紹介するよ~

きっとうまくいくよ~

あなたはここに属していません~

Everything was the same as the first years crash-landed into the Ramshackle living room, but Sebek's loud swearing caught everyone's attention, "WHAT CURSED BEING DID YOU BRING BACK WITH US, GRIMM?!"

"Funahh, I was hungry and it was the only fluffy thing I found!" Grimm complained, though his words were muffled as he chewed on a tiny duck wearing a sailor's uniform in his mouth.

Yuu stared, wondering if they had somehow died or if Jade snuck mushrooms into their food storage again, "... is that fucking Donald??"

Yuu: I want to go home

Also Yuu: *travels to another dimension by accident*

Yuu: ... I thought I couldn't be more disappointed, I was wrong

ok obviously if you don't want spoilers for Hamlet Starring Donald Duck beware but here is my review and reaction

dramatis personæ:

- Hamlet: Donald Duck (Ducklet)

- King Hamlet: Scrooge McDuck (King Scrooge)

- Claudius: John D. Rockerduck (Rocklaudius) (this was definitely a choice)

- Gertrude: Brigitta MacBridge (Brigertrude)

- Polonius: Ludwig von Drake (Drakonius)

- Laertes: Gladstone Gander (Gladertes) (this one took me out the second I read it. not only does it fit bc Hamlet&Laertes and Donald&Gladstone are all foils of each other but it's also insanely fucking funny period so)

- Ophelia: I think it's probably Daisy but I straight up can't tell. but who else would it be. (Duckophelia) (this was also a choice)

- Rosencrantz and Guildenstern: Fethry and Gus (Rosengoose and Guildenfeather)

- Horatio: Gyro Gearloose (Gyratio) (this one also one hit KOed me)

- Players, Gravediggers: Huey, Dewey, and Louie, Grandma Duck

more under the cut of course

premise: Scrooge takes Donald and HDL with him to Denmark for a business venture, and HDL make Donald go with them to search for the infamous ghost castle of Ducksinore, which they know about from William Duckspeare's Ducklet, their assigned reading for school. (William Drakespeare was RIGHT THERE and also what they used in dt87 but whatever.)

Ducklet is the nephew of King Scrooge, who mysteriously vanished, apparently retiring to Greenland. Rockerduck is the new king. Donald is not excited about this, and he's even more mad about Brigertrude claiming to be in love with Scrooge and then turning around and getting engaged to Rockerduck. In the courtyard that night, Donald is faced with the spectre of Scrooge, who is not a ghost but is incorporeal and inaudible to everyone but a close family member. he tells Donald that Rockerduck poured Nonsense Juice on his head that made him invisible in order to usurp the crown and Donald has to get the antidote Or Else.

(Script is by Giorgio Salati, art by Paolo de Lorenzi, translation by Erin Brady)

love this first panel of the Ducklet story, very pleasing and a lovely design

Donald is slaying in a delightful combination of his usual outfit and Hamlet-style clothes complete with doc martens. Kenneth Branagh would be proud

Scrooge kind of follows Donald around, yelling at him to hurry tf up and annoying him in the middle of normal-people conversations so that he looks crazy. all in all he is a giant bitch as usual

loving the adaptation of the SWEAR! scene

rocklaudius calls ducklet a fruitcake

a few instances of comedic timing being impeccable. also I love fethry so much btw

this adaptation of the I Knew Him Well Horatio scene

nobody dies. Donald, thinking Drakonius is Rocklaudius, stomps on his foot with his medieval combat boots after the kids put on his little play. then while Donald Ducklet is on the way to England Drakonius and Ophelia headbutt and Ophelia gets a concussion and walks around talking nonsense and singing just in time for Gladstone to get home and be like What The Hell.

the king and Gladstone hatch a plan to get Donald to drink the Nonsense Juice but Brigertrude accidentally drinks it and turns invisible. then the juice gets all over the castle and everyone in it just before the Norwegian Beagle Boys can arrive to besiege it. the whole castle turns invisible (except they can all see each other) and they decide that it's not that bad bc an invisible incorporeal castle is way harder to besiege anyway. the end

all in all: very entertaining. I feel a little crazy I can't believe that was legit

[writing-biting]

Do you wanna see my Hazbin oc? Of course you do! Here's Jack:

Name:

He goes by Jack— as in 'jack of all trades' (inspired by Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book), and occasionally by Jacqueline.

Queer Identity:

Defaulting to (he/him) pronouns but willing to go by just about anything, Jack is a genderfluid, abrosexual disaster that has his identity much more figured out than mine. Dying helps, I think.

Appearance and Position in Hell:

He's a shapeshifting pegasus demon with sparkles for freckles because I can do whatever the fuck I want, actually. (His socks are pink and yellow btw!) He's also Vox's personal assistant because I do whatever the fuck I want.

Life on Earth:

Jack died in the seventies, a failed actor that took on a career in electronics and worked in a TV station. He was Donald Duck levels of unlucky in his life, but after he died, things really started looking up.

[moon-swag-tourney]

Propaganda below!

Princess Yue

She was blessed by the moon spirits than turned into the moon herself. No one can compete with that. 

The Sokka & Zuko "Well, my first girlfriend turned into the moon." / "That's rough, buddy." meme is referencing Yue - that's the girlfriend that turned into the moon!

THE moon character of all time like c'mon. she turned into the moon. will her sacrifice be for naught??? she's yue from avatar the last airbender c'mon guys

She sacrificed herself to save her people even though she had just found someone who loved her as a person and not a princess. She's all about sacrificing her own wants for duty, and right when she starts to realize maybe that's a little unfair she has to become the moon spirit and leave behind all the people she loves.

And she's pretty.

How many characters are the literal moon. How many.

Bro. She's the moon. She IS the moon. 

Vote Yue for Sokka's same

She's very much and selfless, becoming the moon spirit to save the world from permanent imbalance.

She IS the moon

That's rough, buddy

You know the meme "my girlfriend turned into the moon" "that's rough buddy". This is that girlfriend. This is that moon. 

She literally is the moon.

She played a major role for a one-off character

Victim of forced marriage

Her interactions with Sokka were really funny

She has white hair, what's not to love

Legitimately I love her, underappreciated in the fandom for how great she is.

"My first girlfriend turned into the moon."

"That's rough buddy."

"My first girlfriend turned into the moon."

"That's rough buddy." 

She died in a main character's arms & it fucked him up SO bad. It affects him thru to the end of the show & keeps coming up. LOVE it when main characters get traumatized!!

Della Duck

just look at her shes badass she amputated her own leg and made a prosthetic out of spare rocket parts shes not perfect but shes trying her goddamn best to be a good mother okay she is The character ever

greatest character of all time!

dear tournament runner i am so so sorry for the essay i'm about to write but i am not normal about my girl della

della duck is donald duck's twin sister and huey dewey and louie's mother

the whole history behind her is so interesting bc she unintentionally became the greatest mystery of the disney duck comic verse

one of disney's many weird rules is that their main 6 characters are not allowed to have children or parents. this rule is kinda wobbly in the sense that on one hand, it does get broken (goofy has a son in some canons & donalds mother is shown in some comics (though only in scrooge's flashbacks, she's never allowed to interact with donald)), on the other hand, it also tends to sometimes get applied to characters who are not part of the main 6 but still main characters. this rule meant, that when they wanted their main characters to interact with kids, they invented nieces and nephews. which had the added bonus that when they wanted to stories without them, they didn't have to explain the kids' absence (like for example mickey's nephews, which barely ever appear and, fun fact, were actually invented before huey dewey and louie). so, in one newspaper comic strip, huey dewey and louie were introduced and with them, della was mentioned for the first time, in a letter asking donald to take care care of the boys while their father is in a hospital from a prank they pulled. (said father was never mentioned again btw.)

after that, della didn't appear again for a while, and several shorts and comics revealed that donald has legally adopted the kids. different comics implied that donald has been taking care of the triplets their entire life, instead of just since recently like in their first appearance.

later comics actually showed della for the first time - however, only in flashbacks to donald's childhood. these comics also made her donald's twin. the only piece of media that showed her as an adult was her portrait in the duck family tree.

that is, until 2014 the first comic showing adult della and her fate was released - a dutch comic that was only reprinted in brazil, germany and the netherlands, and even in those countries, anything containing this story is pretty hard to get. it was never officially translated to english (thank god for fantranslations, tho). this comic showed della as a pilot, who tested a rocket and got lost in space when huey dewey and louie were babies. this is where her association with space and a lot of her ducktales 2017 characterisation originates from.

so, let's get into her biggest ever appearence - the ducktales reboot!

from the very beginning of this show, she's set up as the big overarching mystery - a little bit like the author from gravity falls. the pilot ends with dewey discovering a painting of her. it's a very shocking moment and for most viewers the first time they've ever seen della.

so like in the comic, she's a pilot, and she's been going on adventures with donald and scrooge for years. scrooge builds a rocket for her as a surprise gift for when her children hatch but she finds out about it and decides to take it for a test ride, during which she crashes it on the moon. so, she's stuck there, but nothing can stop della duck! she spends the entire 10 years fixing the rocket until she finally manages to get back to earth to her kids.

della is funny, strong, determined and just one of the best characters in the entire show. and she tries so hard to be a good mom to her kids after being absent for a decade even though she struggles so much to adjust back to life on earth.

i just love della so so much

[bubblymochicat]

Fuck it. Ducktales 2017 au.

Donald Duck is a selkie. One of Scrooge's ancestors was a selkie and the gene has just been recessive for centuries until Donald's bad luck struck and it just so happened to wake up in him. No one knew growing up except his parents and they took his coat away when he was like five or six because they were scared of losing him to the ocean. That's the reason his voice sounds the way it does.

They never told anyone, including Donald. I imagine that after they died and the twins moved in with Scrooge that it just got shoved in a box and stashed somewhere in the attic or something. Point is, no one knows that Donald is a selkie. All they know is that he's a bit of a weird kid who just so happens to stare at the ocean just a little too intently when he sees it (Scrooge just thinks its wanderlust, Della just thinks he's a weirdo).

It surprisingly wasn't that bad in the navy. It was almost like the closer he got to the water the more at home he felt which is why he got a houseboat to raise the boys on.

Anyways, life goes on pretty normally (and I'm gonna place this in like about halfway through season three) until on one adventure that Donald happened to come on, they encounter a whole group of selkies. Nothing bad happens, but they all kinda keep giving each other looks and staring really pointedly at Donald which he thinks is weird but might just be because of his voice.

He also notices that he feels this ache in his chest when he gets too close to them, like the ache he gets when he looks out at the ocean. Eventually a conversation gets started between him and the group and the selkies are dropping all these hints about being one of them that are just fucking jumping over Donald's head until one of them gets tired and just straight up asks him if he ever aches for the ocean.

He's a little caught off guard at first but begins to open up about how sometimes he feels like the waves are trying to pull him closer and about the ache he gets. At this point the selkies kind of raise their eyebrows at each other as they all collectively realize that this random ass dude with a whole family of non selkie ducks is one of them.

They then try to shift the topic over to his coat to try and find out how much the guy knows and if he's gonna be alright. So out comes the question, "Do you have a favorite coat?" Donald blinks in surprise. It was kind of a random question. He looked between the three people seated across from him and noticed not for the first time that they all had on beautiful white fur coats.

He was suddenly reminded of his childhood and absently started recounting his memory, "I remember having a coat when I was really little that I absolutely loved. It really was the best thing. It was so white it almost looked blue and it was the softest thing I've ever touched. And sometimes-" (here he leaned in like he was whispering a fatal secret) "when I would sit and wear it I could swear that I could hear the ocean waves crashing into shore,"

Well any doubt the selkies may have had before before was completely gone now. They start hatching a scheme to get him to stay with them (pure intentions, but poorly executed) and end up kind of kidnapping him. This leads to the McDuck and co going on an adventure to get him back where they possibly discover his true nature.

Maybe due to both being around others of his kind and the ocean in a sacred selkie place Donald starts to get ill without his coat so then everyone else is freaking out trying to find it.

Anywho, there's that I guess. Enjoy :)

[best-kids-media-adult]

Donald: "Raised his nephews without being prompted, no questions asked. Just wants them to be safe."

Cinna: "Helped Katniss AND stuck his neck out to rebel with the messaging of his fashion. Icon literally gave her the Mockingjay symbolism and went full-on subversive rebel against the Capitol before he died."

Uncle Iroh:

"Wise old man who mentors a villain character and helps stop them from tumbling down a path of pure villainy by always advocating kindness over violence. To try to summarize it in one sentence"

"lets zuko come into his own in the way he needs to while allowing him space for his anger at the fucked up situation he left behind. also makes a dank tea"

"He can be dangerous but chooses to be polite and calm. He's also a good uncle to Prince Zuko, and constantly steers him to be a better person"

"He serves as someone to talk to and a steady source of support for the main cast throughout the show"

Biography of Boing! (Or, a cool story about unions winning)

If you're from Mexico or familiar with mexican food, you might have heard of beverages in the line of Pascual, such as Pato Pascual, Lulú, Mexicola or Boing. Today I want to talk about the story (or biography!) of this company because 1. I learned about it recently and I thought tumblr would appreciate a story about unions winning, and 2. It's the second week of the Alphabet Superset, and I chose Biography for a topic, and it just so happens that the thing we're gonna talk about starts with B! So without further ado, sit back and let me tell you about the cooperative that produces one of my favorite beverages.

Our story starts in the late 30s and 40s, when one Rafael Victor Jimenez Zamudio started selling fruit popsicles under the name Pascual, featuring Donald Duck (you read that right).

But he didn't stop there. As his business grew, he moved on to selling bottled water and sodas, which soon spread across Mexico and even reached the US and Japan. By the 50s, the company had also started selling a line of non-carbonated fresh fruit drinks called Boing!

Rafael reached out to Tetra Pak and signed a contract to make an exclusive package for Boing (the tetrahedron, anyone?) which was lost after the strike of 1982, which brings us to

the strike.

In 1982, the government decreed wage increases of up to 30%, which most businesses aquiesed. Rafael didn’t. He refused to raise the pay of his workers and so, in may of the same year, a group of Pascual workers went to the offices of the Mexican Workers' Party (Partido Mexicano de los Trabajadores or PMT) to protest. 150 of them were fired, leading to all workers to join the strike.

They halted work on two factories on the 18th, and on the 31st, Rafael ordered his people to open fire to break up the strike.

Two workers died and 17 were injured.

Demetrio Vallejo, director of the mexican workers' party and union activist, planned the next course of action and orgnized a formal committee to represent the union.

Rafael declared Pascual bankrupt and closed down, trying to sell the company, but an assembly ruled in favor of the workers, who bought the company for themselves and resolved to work as a cooperative

In 1985, Pascual workers resumed activities with the Aguascalientes project and have been working as a 100% mexican cooperative ever since. Today, Pascual is the only remaining wholly Mexican owned major soft drink bottler, although it has lost marketplace due to competition (Pascual Boing used to have a fifty percent share in Mexico which has turned to fifteen percent, with Coca-Cola and Pepsi controlling 75% of the Mexican soft drink market with monopolistic practices which exclude Mexican bottlers from being able to sell in certain markets, cafeterias and public events). Still, part of the cooperative's mission is to show that a worker-owned business can work. It is also dedicated to a sense of social responsibility. It has been recognized as a "clean industry" and in 2003, the company partnered with the federal government to circulate information about the prevention of kidnapping of children which included announcements on Pascual Boing trucks and materials for schools.

Also the drinks are fucking good yall.
