Disney's 100th Anniversary Short Makes Wish Look Bad 

The concepts for Wish were IMMENSELY better than the actual movie.

They should’ve made this into a movie than what we got with Wish

Brittney:

I actually agree. This SHORT had more respect and care for their brand than Wish ever did. Granted, there were still HIDEOUS recreations of beloved characters (like Pacha) but there was real highlights in there too. Seeing Mr. Toad on the Magic Carpet MAKES A LOT of sense. He found yet another mania.

This short proves that Wish's lazy director was talking total BS blaming 2D animation for being too limited when you can indeed do almost everything with 2D if you just have enough knowledge and ambition to it like this short! Disney should have fired that director and those robotic-like amateur writers too.

My favorite detail about this short was the very beginning- the old man was Burny Mattinson - the LONGEST working Disney animation studio employee. He worked there for almost SEVENTY YEARS. And it had him talking with the new generation of animators in the young woman with him. It was such a sweet moment and I'm so glad he was able to be in the short before he passed.

Asha has the special honor in being in both Disney's worst and best 100th year celebration movie.

I do “WISH” that they could’ve made once upon a studio movie where all the characters interacted with each other, like imagine how fun that would be.

Worst part is, this could've helped get more people to see the movie. But Disney was like: "People haven't seen Encanto, right? And they still watch ABC and TV, right?

6:59

I kept crying like a baby for 10 more minutes after the end. F**k, this little gem is way more precious, detailed, rendered than that trash they sold as 'a century in the making'. Here: heart, soul, feelings, a sense of PARTICIPATION. There: soulless, lazy, heartless marketing.

I think what people really like about this short is that it's simple and straightforward. The Mario movie is also like that too. Not everything needs to be complicated. Sometimes you need something simple and straightforward and that's what Once Upon A Studio and The Super Mario Bros. Movie nailed so well.

“Once Upon a Studio” should have been a full-length feature. It celebrates the Disney legacy, and would have gotten people into theaters. The other option should have been a full-length Mickey Mouse film.

They actually SHOWED WALT. I am STUNNED....

If anything, between this short and the concept art for WISH, it proves that Disney still has creative and innovative artists and writers, Disney higher ups just need to let these people have some creative freedom and take risks, instead of playing it safe constantly just for a quick buck.

I love seeing WISH art because it's all either 'King Magnifico is hot' 'Asha Redesign/OG concept art' or 'Asha and Star Boy Should Have Been'

You know things have gone wrong when people prefer a Disney short than their feature film.

What if Wish wasn’t centred around a new character, but around Mickey and the beginnings of all the stories that Disney made in the last 100 years?

I am so deeply angry at Disney for all they’ve done to ruin their brand, I can’t really see this clearly.

The rescuers down under!!!! Omg one of my faves as a kid
