I mean I think sometimes when people say there is no blood in a movie when there actually is could be the fact that as kids we were just too young to really understand the impact/ weight of the injury the characters received. It’s like how adult jokes in movies would have gone over our heads as kids but as adults we rewatch the movies and finally understand. I didn’t realize how brutal Hercules was beaten until I rewatched the movie because as a kid that went over my head.
You forgot two other moments; Sleeping Beauty when Prince Phillip stabbed Maleficent in her dragon form with his sword, and Beauty and the Beast when Gaston stabbed the Beast.
I love how brave they are showing blood although cs it’s a Children’s company always G-Rated but the new haunted mansion is pg-13 so i DONT mind seeing some blood😅 I mean come on it’s pg-13 of course they’re gonna show blood
They can’t get sued, it’s not teaching their kids to become violent, it’s just a cartoon. It’s the parent’s responsibility to check the movie beforehand, not Disney’s.
8:58 I VIVIDLY remember Flynn bleeding out during the stabbing scene, but last time I watched Tangled, THERE WASNT ANY BLOOD??? It actually disappointed me. They cut it out I swear.
3:37 Many scenes in classic Disney films were reused in later movies, like how the dancing from Sleeping Beauty was used for Beauty and the Beast. This was done to save animation time, since animation involved drawing out frame by frame images. Since Wish somewhat harkens back to original media, maybe those scenes have been reused to replicate the old practice of reusing animation. Or maybe it's the literal approach, where it saves animation time.
there were a lot of examples in this video that didn't actually show blood. Flynn and Mirabel's hands, Judy's face and leg, they were scratches, sure, but there wasn't any actual blood coming out of the wound. it was as if the cut had already closed up and stopped bleeding despite being fresh. guess it's their way of showing a threat without upsetting any overprotective parents, though i feel like this watered-down violence really takes away the impact. it's like you said, it doesn't need to be excessive, but disney execs will do anything to lines their pockets at much as possible. also you used the hercules example twice lol, not sure if that was intentional or not
It seemed to me instead of it being HEALED that it was shown the moment before the actual blood appeared. In Mirabel's case, you see the cut get more red and angry as that scene plays out, showing that it WILL bleed, but it doesn't show the blood actually well up. All the scrapes are shown early, before the blood has a chance to show up. Glad to scroll down and see this though, because I was going to comment it myself if no one else had. ^^
Something You Missed Is That In 2019’s The Lion King, In A Scene, You Can See Scar EATING A Animal, And When You See Scar’s Face, You Can CLEARLY SEE Blood On Scar’s Mouth
What, no mention scene of Simba scratching Shenzi? That leafed a mark. Sure those wounds dispearred after that scene but if you mention Judy's scratch marks, Shenzi's ones should too.
As a guy who makes comic strips and who LOVES his main character, I still make him bleed, bruised, and especially stabbed, like what type of villain doesn't wanna see his opponent bleed, the blade or weapon that was used in stabbing it will have to have some about of blood or chunk of meat or something, I say that is a rule of animation, artist and everything else, there will have to be blood in a fight, at least something like a scratch, or bruise, companies don't have to be scared, they can add blood, just don't add to much.
There is a brief moment of blood shed in Aladdin, when Jafar becomes a giant cobra at one point Aladdin leaps on his head and stabs him with a sword, a spurt of blood is visible for a second.
Isn't it fascinating how the landscape of kids' animation is evolving? Disney, a pioneer in the field, has long been known for its cautious approach when it comes to creating content for young audiences. They have taken care to balance entertainment with safeguarding children from the harsher aspects of reality, a stance that many parents appreciate. However, what's truly intriguing is the recent shift in the industry. We've noticed a rising trend of animations becoming more intellectually stimulating, presenting kids with content they can comprehend without resorting to extreme elements. It's a refreshing departure from the norm, and in some ways reminiscent of certain anime styles. Interestingly, it seems like this shift is partly in response to the older younger generation that is growing up. Instead of solely focusing on the newest and youngest audience, the industry is now catering to this older demographic, which is showing more maturity and understanding. Disney, being a key player, is also adapting to these changes to a certain extent. While they continue to embrace their commitment to protecting and entertaining younger viewers, they are also venturing into creating content that resonates with the older kids. In the end, it's encouraging to witness this transformation in kids' animation, and it'll be fascinating to see how Disney and other studios strike a balance between cherishing their traditional values while embracing this new wave of intelligence-focused storytelling.
What if asking the AI is like this: Person: Is there blood in Toy Story? AI: Yes, there is a bit of blood in Toy Story, during the fight scene with Woody and Buzz in the Gas Station Person: Is there blood in Up? AI: No, there is no blood in Up.
4:45 Lion king.. as A Assistant (doctor) He would not survive Because his Blood Vassals did get stabbed and He Fell about 20 or 10 Feet Down towards his death.
I do appreciate your covering this. I get sick of sugar coating. I have a copy of the original Grimm's Brothers Tales translated to the American language. So different from the versions you can check out from libraries.
As long as there isn't a lot of it, (like heavily bleeding a lot in like adult movies) a little bit of blood isn't bad in kids films. I am sure someone who is 8 might have gotten a scrape or something in their life.
I don't mind blood in children's media, if anything I think it's important. Animal abuse, excessive fetishes (Totally Spies and Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story), "fanservice" especially of minors, grooming, and child abuse however I'm not ok with and was what traumatized me as a child. Farthing Wood traumatized me as a child, not because of the blood, but because the episodes were shown in a random order where I live, they were never able to leave that darn forest! One day I saw the mouse family die twice in a row! They were my favourite characters! Yes they were bleeding, but it was their lifeless bodies hanging on the thorns with terror on their faces that haunted me!
Remember when I was a kid I was watching "Turok Son of Stone" with a lot of blood, death, dismemberment and even cannibalism scene. And I pretty lked that :)
6:00 hang on a minute. Are those the two people laying down are Tarzan's parents dead? that's very hard to see I never noticed that when I saw this scene probably like a couple years later.
I’d say my favorite example of blood in these movies is Encanto, because it’s small enough to fit the tone but there is enough to show something’s off. It’s also brought up later so it has a purpose.
Actually, seeing blood in Disney movies so subtly did not affect me much, it just made me aware of reality.. As a child, the movies I saw blood in were: Tangled (It was brutal, because it was a real stabbing, and it makes it very clear what a bladed weapon does, I already sensed it when they show Gothel taking out a dagger as a weapon, although I hoped she wouldn't use it), The Lion King (You forgot when Simba scratched Shenzi in the face, and yes, it's hard to notice when Scar aggressively grabs Mufasa's legs, because I never noticed it as a child), Mulan (it was almost unexpected, because Mulan had even continued to fight and try to avoid the avalanche along with Shang as if nothing had hurt her) and The Slepping Beauty (there it was excessive, like a big puddle, after being stabbed by Felipe's sword, well that part was dark, but I don't remember much anymore)...Well, I was still a child and too young to understand, and when I grew up, I could understand more and how shocking it was. Then Encanto and Zootopia when I was a teenager (well the scratches on both were subtle, you didn't see an excessive amount of blood)
You saying Tamgled is one of the first movies you've seen in your life that just feels so weird because one of my first movies was The Hunch Back of Notre Dame.
Also in the Dinosaur movie 2000, I didn't remember it that way but the movie really has a bit of a crude tone for a children's movie, however it's still very good.
Here’s one. In the movie Bambi, when Bambi and his mother find grass, whether you notice it or not, there is blood under the grass before the chase begins. I know it’s something small to point out, but it is another movie that hints blood in it.
idk if I'd count the scrapes/scratches/cuts as blood, they *are* flesh wounds, but for blood to be _blood_ . and for it to be impactful, it needs to drip, it needs to run, it needs to _bleed_ . seeing it leave the body makes it really clear that it is serious.
One of my favourite filmsRobinHood the Cartoon (with animals and as the characters) actually had a very dark ending alternate scen of which Prince John was about to stab robin but King Richard Stops him. It was said that it would be to dark for children. (This was made in 1973) it was also the first film made after the death of Walt Disney. Still it shows some blood in the film! It had a really low budget but stil one of the best in my opinion.
Well, to mention other DIsney movies who had blood in them: "Sleeping Beauty", "The Fox and the Hound", "Beauty and the Beast", "Aladdin", "Dinosaur", "Atlantis The Lost Empire" and "The Princess and the Frog". And "The Lion King" also had blood on the scene of Shenzi`s cheek after Simba`s scar. And Tarzan had blood on his chest after Sabor`s scar.
The Black Cauldron also had blood when Taran got hurt from the gwythaints. And it was also pouring out of the cauldron during the climax. Then again, it was supposed to be a start for dark fantasy.
I remember Dragon Maleficent bleeding quite a lot after Philip throws that sword in her heart. Quite the thing for a 1950’s Disney movie if you ask me.
There is not just fight or flight, there is also freeze! This 'Freeze' is like you see something horrible and you are scared so much you freeze! The time limits are 3 seconds to 1 day! Edit: another one is fown and it's where you try to please people and make them happy.
In the Lion King;Elephant graveyard scene...(and I'm surprised you missed this)Simba scratches/SLICES OPEN Shensi Hyena's face and the blood in VERY visible!
Some people are like so surprised if there’s blood in a Disney or Pixar movie, but technically it doesn’t matter because it would make it look realistic, and she need to know the realistic experience
I think I'm having trouble seeing, but the scratch on Judy's cheek isn't anything to call home about. Its barely anything. When watching the movie recently, I thought it as very light all things considered. The fur is gone to show she we scratched, but I don't see any blood. Just skin. As for some of the others? I think I'm desensitized. I don't watch overly violent shows or movies, but quite a few of these are fairly tame. By all accounts, the stab should have left a puddle under Eugene. I see more blood on my bedsheets monthly than a spot on his shirt.
I did some research on some of these old Disney movies and when they were in production the MPAA thought of doing these movies as a PG-Rated movie instead of a G-Rated movie because of the blood scenes and some dark moments in Disney movies. I know Tangled Encanto Zootopia and more listed in this video are Rated-PG, but I was thinking of some of the older movies listed in this video such as Hercules, The Lion King, Tarzan, and much more. I’m sure there are some more of these movies mentioned in this video that are a Rated-PG movie I just can’t list everything that has been mentioned
People forget about Brother Bear 2, Kenai is hit by an arrow that leaves him injured, and he leaves a trail of blood on the rock trying to escape, and the worst scene is when he is thrown over the ravine.
When Simba gets smacked in the face by Scar during the final battle you can see something splatter off his face. I always thought it was blood that was sneakingly added because the reddish and fiery background made it difficult to see.
Y'all Remember beauty and the beast? When Beast got in the fight in the wolves. Before he passed out, you can see the blood pouring down his arm. Also when he gets stabbed by Gaston there's the blood staining his shirt
I think a reasonable amount of blood (not gore) should be portrayed in movie when it calls for it. It’s not like kids haven’t seen it before and it seems understandable when one gets hurt bleeding is a possibility. And I remember the Tarzan scene back then I noticed the blood which kind of hit me hard, but not in a bad way. Then years later I just realised that you could see his parents bodies lying in the corner.
If kids just watched Disney movies WITHOUT any BLOOD they would get a heart attack when getting cut and seeing blood, but Disney movies WITH BLOOD kinda teach kids not to hurt themselves as they might get cut with blood coming out from their veins!
Judy (the bunny on the cover of the video) never had blood on her scratch, because in the movie the scratch was actually light pink, and she never had blood dripping out of her mouth.
