Disney 100 years

As a writer, this is a basic plot of the movie I would have presented for Disney 100 years:

Something has gone wrong with the fairytales someone has changed things so that the villains are coming out on top. Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Lion King, etc. are all becoming twisted tales. We would see how the altering of these cornerstone stories had an effect on the real world. The Blue Fairy from Pinocchio - or maybe Tinker Bell appears to someone in the real world - maybe a descendant of a favorite Disney actor and entices them to enter the fairytale realm to save the fairytales. They bring along a skeptic, who has long since closed off their heart to magic and stories. We, as an audience, are taken into favorite stories and get to revisit the magic as they are saved and set correctly. It's a mix of both animation and live-action. The closed-off person realizes the beauty of stories again, and the wonder of magic. There is a mix of new songs built off the old songs - a perfect mix of sentiment and originality.

Anyway..."Wish" wasn't awful, but itfa didn't feel developed enough to be the big 100 year celebration movie. At least in my opinion...

Let me know your thoughts!

An underrated (at least, I haven't seen it talked about yet) moment in Once Upon a Studio is when Oswald shows up and Mickey says to him, "After you!"

Sure, it's a common courtesy, but I love this non-overt way of Mickey acknowledging that, although he is the face of Disney, Oswald came before him.

Also, the first Disney Princess (Snow White) reaching for the newest in the lineup (Asha).

Hey I have a question, is it wrong that I hate the Disney short film Once Upon a Studio and prefer Wish over it as the superior centennial celebration of Disney? I think it’s one of the shorts that Disney has ever made, not only because of the Wish hatedom and its popularity, I also despise it because it I find the premise of the film generic and stupid; it’s literally just generic Disney crossover number 1,000 and people over praise it (even though they’ve made similar crossovers like House of Mouse). The reason I think that Wish is better is because I’m one of the very few people who unironically thinks that the movie is a masterpiece, it has beautiful animation, a great soundtrack, and unforgettable characters. It’s also a rare case in which employees were protesting through their work. The movie is meant to be a metaphor for Disney itself, with the kingdom of Rosas representing Disney, Asha is meant to be someone who grew up with Disney and now works at the company as an animator as either an intern or a low ranking animator at either the main studio or PIXAR, and Magnifico is meant to be the company higher ups who went mad with power as a result of their money and greed who uses others as an excuse to make themselves more powerful (like the Onceler in the Lorax). The only other time I can think of artists biting the hand of the people who were feeding them was in the video game Super Smash Bros Ultimate, where the devs vilified both Nintendo and its fan base in the form of Galeem and Dharkhan respectively. And what’s worse is that apparently the people who were working on the movie were treating it like it was a passion project, and if you don’t believe me, here’s a Reddit post from one of the animators who worked on the movie (courtesy of @/starsha-stardust ):

This is genuinely depressing, a bunch of people work on a passion project, only for it to get viciously torn to shreds by film critics, Disney Haters, Toxic Disney Fans, and the internet. I feel like if the movie was made by a different studio than Disney then it would be universally praised (especially if it was an indie animated web series), but since the 2020s are basically the golden age of the Disney Hatedom, they’re treating it and every other movie made by Disney and PIXAR as films that are on the same level of quality as the movie Food Fight. I refuse to watch Once Upon a Studio because of these people (and in case you’re wondering, the theater I saw Wish at didn’t show the short before the movie) and I probably never will unless these people change their minds and say they’re sorry. Don’t get me wrong, if you don’t like it and have a valid reason for not liking it, then that’s fine, but if you don’t like it because it wasn’t an incestuous love story between the ghost of a recently deceased 100 year old man and his 17 year old granddaughter, then you should go seek therapy. But at the end of the day, do you think I’m being too harsh on OuaS?

So was Once Upon a Studio supposed to play before the Wish movie? Because that didn't happen in my theater. It just went straight to the movie. Was this all just a rumor, or are people getting Once Upon a Studio before their showings?
