Considering that all of these trolls in the song here look like Stanley, this could've been potential to reveal a darker backstory to make the film a bit more serious. Let's say, this originally Stanley's home before the stone trolls took over it, and Stanley is the last of garden trolls while all of the others were turned into stone statues. They also should've made the Kingdom of Trolls a bit more filthy & smoggy because there's harding any flowers nor plant life to help the air be more breathable.
Dude! I actually have a fanfiction universe based on this movie that I'm currently brainstorming with a premise involving Gnorga spearheading a radical purge agenda against Stanley's race of trolls. Before that happens the Troll Kingdom had multiple trolls races/communities who flourished and lived peacefully side by side until Gnorga's ascension to power.
As a kid I loved this movie, still do. :) It was a great and good movie about believing in yourself and following your dreams, the perfect movie for kids and adults alike. As I watch this memories just flow into my head and I sit here and miss the days when these movies were absolute classics. :)
@@paulmay6812 Saw this movie when I was a teen and I found it cute. Though I can understand that many people may not like sugary sweet movies like this.
I’m 29 now and still here. Lol I don’t think the emotions a person experiences after watching their parents split ever really go away… and I’m not even sure it gets easier with time. But little things like this do sometimes help me feel better. Sometimes.
I watched this a lot when I was little and I used to believe Stanley was real, so I used to ask my mom if we could go visit him in Central Park. XD I finally got to go to Central Park for the first time last summer and it's just as beautiful, maybe more so, than this song is.
red good like how Stanly’s trolls ( his subspecies) we’re ether wipes out, turned into stone or transformed into The other looking trolls( the queen types). Honestly that be a much more entertaining story then telling kids under 7 to be environmental.
Okay I watched this as a kid and it wasn't really a movie that I would like to watch again at present. But the reason why I still have a little respect for this movie is its soundtrack! :D
0:35 Adult Gus:(narrating) And there it was nestled, right before our eyes, and beyond our wildest dreams. A whole other kingdom different from the one Gnorga ruled. Here, these trolls were just like Stanley. The compassionate, loving, and good-hearted.
"But having grown up, having seen the world of adults and become wiser, I can't help but wonder.. What was the price of this... happiness.. of Stanleys world? What lurked behind those smiles? Was his world any better than Gnorgas? The 'other side' forced into exile or to hide their nature in order to conform to Stanley's vision? How much of their own, individual dreams did these trolls have to sacrifice and give up to build this.. utopia? How much of their own self did they have to forsake in order to create a paradise of common good? For one troll's dream?"
I've also always wanted this scene to become a dark ride. Like the rides at Disney that go indoors and take you through the magical worlds of Wonderland and Neverland.
I’m 27, now and still here. Haha I guess I’m worried that my childlike imagination could die when my parents divorce later this month... I don’t want to lose it but I already find myself getting jealous or angry in the face of stuff from my childhood to some extent. Here’s to hoping Stanley’s message here still stays with me and that I stop having those feelings towards stuff I loved!
I'm 25 in 2018 and about to cry from hearing this song... I loved this movie so much when I was a little girl and I was raised on theme parks like Disney and Universal... It really makes my eyes water to imagine what this scene and song would be like as a ride. I would love for a park like those to take the basic idea for Peter Pan's Flight and the E.T. Adventure to create this. Guests would enter Central Park, go into Stanley's little bridge and board replicas of this enchanted toy boat and be whisked away into the whimsical, magical land of the trolls with Stanley as their ship captain to this song... It's awful that this didn't receive the box office credit it deserved because now we'll never have that magical ride. :,(
I've been listening to this over and over because I love this song, but I'm pretty sure he's singing "A place my dreams have made with wishes from my heart." rather than "A place where dreams are made with wishes from my heart." Though every time I google for the lyrics I can only find the latter :P But I'm just not hearing it.
No, you know what? I got it. I know what the intended audience for this was. This is for babies who are high. No, no, pets who are high. No, no, pets' fleas who are high. No, no, you know what? This movie was intended for your wall. Just show it to your wall and maybe, possibly, it will be entertained. But to be honest, even THAT'S doubtful.
By 1994 standards, this film feels outdated with its animation, message about “dreams”, and overall cutsie tone that relics the classic old Disney style from Disney’s own golden age. At the time, Disney had longed moved past their regular genre and got more creative and experimental with their movies and the suits who were in charge of this film just did not understand it. It is also sad that Don Bluth had little creative control over Troll in Central Park, he only did what the corporate heads told him. I see this film as a tragedy when special attention, time, care, and effort in an animated film is wasted. And, in the summer in 1994, that reality hit Don Bluth studios hard when Disney released their own animated juggernaut of a movie.
Out of all the terrible songs in this movie, this is definitely the worst one of them all. As a matter fact, where is this whole thing with the waterfall, the friendly troll kingdown and a pirate ship attacking the main characters after this scene, I mean, I get that all of this is a dream. But there's absolutely no segway of any kind to showed us, it's just that it's happening for no reason and it doesn't tie into anything, it's never been brought up again IT'S ABSOLUTELY POINTLESS!!!, Fucking random pointlessness!
Despite how cutesy this is, did anyone notice how everyone in Stanley's dream world looks like and acts just like him? Pretty narcissistic on his part.
