I didn't realize that Ariel only sings one song in the original animated film. The song Halle sings when she's fished out of the ocean, on the way to the prince's house is about how the surface world was not what she expected: corsets, shoes, people fishing and eating fish, the prince not recognizing her and how gravity keeps pulling her down. I never thought about how a mermaid who floats in water all the time would feel having to deal with gravity.

@jubilantsleep Год назад

Such a good song!

@AmoreMiu Год назад

Yea, maybe they wanted to connect it to the original story as well, the mermaids feet hurt and feels like she’s stepping on knifes

@haydenberends3905 Год назад

Probably my favorite new song

@vanb8797 11 месяцев назад

I am wondering if some of these new songs were featured on the stage musical. I know that Disney created the musical for stage (Broadway?), like how B&tB was made into a stage musical with extra songs. I do think this is my favorite Live Action Disney remake; they kept all the good stuff and feels while making subtle adjustments and giving more development time to the characters. 👏 They did this remake right whereas the B&tB remake somehow took away from the humanity of the original and added unnecessary details that didn’t aid in the storytelling.

@nao-bo4yz 11 месяцев назад

i do believe all the new songs were written by lin manuel miranda for this movie. not to say the musical doesnt have any original songs, im just not familiar with them. also, the ascending note halle does on 'above' in 'part of your world' is similar to how its sung in the musical

@t1ydot Год назад

@adrielisaacs9228 11 месяцев назад

Not really - they did have chemistry in the original. It felt rushed as the movie was shorter. The live action is much longer, so of course more time can be dedicated to that. Ariel and Eric bonded well in both the animated and live action Little Mermaids (and yes, I did watch the live action, and I thought it was great).

@lostchild06 11 месяцев назад

@antshouse9323 Год назад

You see the glass mermaid ornament that Eric gave Ariel?...that's how the original author described the little mermaid over 150 years before the animated version...author quote said ''her skin was clear and delicate as a rose leaf'' which is the color of green...that's why the ornament was glass because it's clear and delicate but also green, And the only thing that was accurate to how the mermaid was suppose to look between both mermaids from the original and live remake was their green fish tales.

@larschristensen2907 Год назад

When Scuttle talks about Flounder telling "the whole story - has Ariel killed the prince yet" it is a clever reference to the original Hans Christian Andersen story. In the end the mermaid is told to kill the prince to become a mermaid again but she can not go through with it.

@breezus3928 11 месяцев назад

The library scene and the other ways they deepened the relationship between Ariel and Eric alone makes this remake worth it (plus they lucked out with Halle and Jonah having amazing chemistry).

i understand that "wild uncharted waters" is not for everyone, but i love it very much. ariel's siren in the background, eric's desperation and yearning for things that he desires, how he's full of compliments to ariel, and how the notes on this song is the reverse of "part of your world"... jonah hauer-king did a fairly good performance in delivering the emotions both in the singing and the acting. and i think that this live action is more gentle in a few aspects. there's something gentle about ariel, about eric and the other characters, about the relationships, and it just touched me. they gave eric and his relationship with ariel so much more personality and it just makes more sense for me. also, did you guys not cry a bit at that scene where ariel helps max to get to the boat:((

@arjaneb Год назад

aww yes thank you, i didn’t know a few people didn’t like it afterwards, i saw it in the theaters but i’m glad i know because to me i enjoyed it! i thought it was neat, beautiful and a clever perspective of Eric’s view on the things he wants and desires including finding the girl (Ariel) lol with the voice. it was a nice new touch to the story because we’re seeing more of his story and what he wants in his life.

@mr.narrator6781 Год назад

I think the only stumble they made with Part of Your World was nor recreating that slow sink back to the bottom of her grotto, in the original that always was so sad for me. It showed how repressed she feels, and like there is no way for her to be apart of the human world.

@TwilightLuluFleur Год назад

so truee, but i think the purpose of it is like the viewers thinks she's still reaching up that hole but she's already at the bottom giving the illusion that she's so close yet so far and possibly might not have a chance to reach it, hence why Halle's version is more determined and passionate, different from Jodi's wistful longing and hopefulness. What I would have loved for them to recreate is how Ariel in the animated version did the "burn" part.

@mr.narrator6781 Год назад

@@TwilightLuluFleur I see your point it was just a little smash cut for me. Also with all the rigging she was hooked up to probably would have made that shot a nightmare to film lol. I do agree 100% if the kept the burn moment in the song, it would have made more impact when she actually did touch the fire and felt the pain of it even more significant. But hey choices.

As someone who doesn't like the original animated movie, I appreciate the nuances they added, especially with Ariel and Eric's relationship. I love that Eric is enticed by Ariel's siren song, but then by getting to know her, he becomes free from the spell and actually falls for her. Halle Bailey and Jonah Hauer-King are great in the roles. And the emphasis on Ariel wanting to be free rather than just running away for a man is a great plot point.

I also how their parallels with their rooms of interest and they could bound over it. I really loved Sebastian’s voice in this. And lastly loved the passing of torch getting to see the voice actor and real life actress is so cool.

Edit: This is way longer than I expected it to be, I just started rambling lmao Absolutely loved this movie, and I'm glad you both enjoyed it. I agree that it handled all the personal relationships so much more believably than the animated movie. Eric just had so much more character, which allowed for him and Ariel to have way more chemistry than they did previously. And I did buy into Ariel and Triton's father/daughter relationship more, but I think Triton was far too understated. The destruction of Ariel's grotto did have way less energy to it than the animated version of the scene. Originally, Ariel sounded *desperate* for Triton to stop blasting away, whereas this version really downplayed her devastation. Plus, the dramatic lighting of the animated scene really added to the tension, but I can't see any way they really could have replicated that in live action. As far as character relationships, I do wish they had done more with her sisters. They were so beautifully designed and it really would have been nice to get a better grasp on what Ariel's relationship with her sisters was like. My main critiques really just boil down to design choices here and there. Flounder, of course, is my biggest gripe. Honestly, him just being a little bigger and more yellow would fix all the issues. Being mainly white kinda made his features disappear so you can't really see him emoting as well as you can with Scuttle or Sebastian. Especially Scuttle, I'm still impressed with how well animated her face is while still looking like a realistic bird. My other issues are a more minor. I think Ariel's top could look better. I like the purple scales idea, but making just look like a bandeau is a tad boring. I think they should have had it actually be connected to the rest of her scales, like they did with her sisters. Her blue dress was cute, but color-wise it was a little bland, just being the same color throughout. Even if the bodice was a different color, that would've helped. The pink dress at the end was cute, but it looked way too similar in shape to the blue dress, so it felt kind of monotonous. And I'm so sad they did away with the sparkly dress Triton made for her! They could've done so much with that! Something with an iridescent shimmer like Triton's armor would have been amazing. But instead we get the tattered remains of her blue dress...

@lessismore8533 6 месяцев назад

Honestly comments like this bother the MESS out of me. You can have your opinion but the fact is there are MILLIONS of talented singers/actresses in the world. If Halle never became a celeb you wouldn’t know who she is. Diseny would STILL be doing TLM remake and would find someone else talented and capable. And would’ve gotten the same comment about “being the best one”. Also I disagree about the emotion part. Jodi’s version of “part of your world” has a balance of singing /acting. Ariel wasn’t just singing to give a performance. You could HEAR the desperation of her voice. She spoke/sang instead of just singing. Vocals Are definitely Halles stronger point versus acting.

And not just the movie but hate directed at Halle herself - sadly the times we are now in, some see it okay to make very nasty comments to a star purely cause they can't handle them being in that role which in Halle's case is even more out of order considering from all the backstage/ interview clips with her how you see she has the most endearing bubbly personality that any sane individual would warm to.

The way I see it, the underwater scenes are better in the animated and the on-land scenes are better in the live action.

I loved this movie! I also enjoy the animated one as well, but I felt that Disney went more into Ariel's and Eric's story in this version. Ariel and her sisters have the same mom according to Disney. Apparently, in mermaid biology, the mom and dad can be one race, and then the offspring can be different. King Triton is the son of Poseidon. In Greek mythology, the gods always gave off some crazy offspring. So yeah makes sense. Also, mermaids are immune to jelly tentacle stings due to numerous reasons. Anyways, great movie!
