Considering the rise of artificial intelligence and Disney’s willingness to push streaming content like “Moana 2” into theaters, it’s all the more impressive that “Zootopia 2” is clearly hand-crafted by talented artists.
Disney’s recent animated outings have included the beautiful but directionless Strange World and the visually dull Wish and Moana 2.
…led to Moana's TV show being reworked into the generic, lower-quality Moana 2…
Just in the last year, Moana 2 and the live action Lilo & Stitch both crossed the billion dollar mark, less a testament to innovation than to the strength of the Disney brand itself.
No esperaba nada particularmente espectacular de “Zootopia 2” —especialmente luego de la experiencia de “Moana 2” el año pasado…
So like Frozen 2 or Moana 2, it’s more of the same.
I’m game to see her in something other than a live-action remake of “Moana 2.”
The second happened because Moana 2 was arriving and I wanted the context fresh.
…less than two years after cartoon Moana 2, considered considerably less than a classic…
Moana 2 arrived in 2024, placing this remake beside an ongoing series rather than allowing it to arrive at a historical distance from its source.
I found this a confusing film to watch, as 2024’s inferior sequel Moana 2 is far fresher in my mind than the original film…
2024's Moana 2 however was a different case entirely.
…compared to the terrible tunes of Wish and the forgettable ones of Moana 2…
…not even the enjoyably warped, idiosyncratic failures of Wish or Moana 2…
…while “Wicked” and “Moana 2” are still scorching hot.
Finding a new drinking buddy in Moana 2, Lilo & Stitch is another outcome of Disney's indecisive and short-sighted "made for Disney+ but sent to theaters at the final hour" strategy and plays like it.
