I laughed so hard when Ursula said "How was I supposed to know she could write?" and the eels responded, "When she signed the contract." That was comedy gold.
I think from this we can conclude that Eric is illiterate. Otherwise the movie doesn't work
😂exactly
_"When she signed the contract."_
_"When she signed the contract."_
My favorite part was when Shrek came out of Narnia holding a lightsaber and said "it's breakin' bad"
Eric would just think she's insane
"When she signed the contract " is probably the single greatest explanation on an obvious solution to a movie I've ever heard. Brilliant.
I remember saying this when I was five and my mom getting mad at me lol
Your 5 year old self was much smarter than I am, because ISTG that never even occurred to me until I watched this... 🤦🏻♀️😂
Not really. Plenty of illiterate people learn how to sign something, or even their name without being able to read or write much else.
@@kevinbarnard355
Well most royalty are taught to read and write at a young age that does not mean that the same rules apply for merfolk they might only have an oral language will having no written language because I don't think I ever saw any written language in the movie or the TV show😮😮😮
Agreed. This is my favorite HISHE episode now because of it.
1:55 Ursula never stated Ariel would get her voice back if she managed to kiss Eric - her voice was the payment for turning her human. Ursula just said she would become human permanently if she & Eric shared True Love’s Kiss by the 3rd day. So therefore, while she’d be human she would remain mute.
Ariel only got her voice back in the movie cos Ursula’s shell pendant 🐚 broke.
I beg to differ
Clearly you didn’t watch the movie or pay attention to it because one of the lyrics in the song kiss the girl says “she don’t say a word and she won’t say a word until you kiss the girl “ so yes she would get her voice back if he kissed her
I don't care what anybody else says: you're right! Sebastian made a mistake with that song lyric. After all, Howard Ashman didn't write the screenplay, so there could have easily been a misunderstanding there.
Exactly and that kiss wasn’t a true love kiss anyway and I think Eric would be immediately turned off by Ariel asking him to kiss her right when they met 🤣
@@haleystewart94 nah that’s what flaunter and Sebastian thought that could happen after the kiss. But Ursula never stated she would get her voice back.
“How was I supposed to know she could write”
“When she signed the contract”
That was just GOLD! I replayed it so much 😂😂
It still isn't in Europe.
It still isn't in Europe.
Its still not true in most countries in Europe.
Still is in most parts of Europe.
@daiz9875 Ha! Not as much as I replayed Jane kicking Loki in the groin in Hishe Dark World!😂
Her eels calling Ursula out for not realizing that Ariel could write was hilarious.
That poor unfortunate soul
You should win a price premium for live actoon comedy lol
Same! The eels are smarter than Ursula. 😂😂
But seriously, why didn't Ariel write her name in the sand in the original movie?
@@red_five3325 you do realize this is a Disney movie?
Simple solutions don't exist
1:41 Best way to get around Ursula's magical contract since it never said anything about prohibiting Ariel from writing down to tell Eric about who she is.
No, but since she doesn't do so, we must conclude that she is unable to. The spell likely takes away all of her ability to communicate, including writing things down.
Eric would just think she's insane
@@Rocket1377 It's been years since I've seen the movie but I recall Ursula mentioning that Ariel could still use "body language". If that's the case, I don't know why she couldn't just write things out in the sand, which is a form of using her body to communicate, or just get Eric to basically start a game of charade and "20 questions" and she could nod "yes" or "no". If he's any kind of savvy he could probably whittle things down based on that or otherwise noting her expressions and gestures. I mean, they have 3 days to sort it out and it's a fairly simple concepts she's got to get him to understand.
@@Rocket1377 She can still use body language just fine so why not writing?
or draw it
😂 I couldn't stop laughing when Ariel said it's my best 16 birthday ever 😂 like that was a problem in their time 😂
being ten-and-six wasn't a problem at the time because *there was no concept of adolescence/puberty back then* ; after childhood *the next step is straight-up adulthood* , and *for women once their menses started they're already fit for motherhood*
It’s also not a problem today in most parts of the world. Some US states just think that and that has apparently influenced the whole society into thinking the age of consent is at 18 even though most of the world has it at like 16. I don’t get it
Exactly. Even today, 16 is perfectly legal for marriage in many countries and Prince Eric is meant to be either Sicilian or Danish and it's legal in both of those places too
@@dod-iw6hj He also says "in two years" while Hishe is based in Texas, where the AoC is 17 years
(pause) "That's a little young for me." Haha.
My wife said the exact same thing "How do we know aerial can write?" When she started writing in the sand and I just told her wait one second, and when she saw the part when the eels said "When she signed the contract " I busted out laughing and my wife couldn't believe she asked that question considering it was her favorite movie as a child.
Same. I asked too and I've seen the movie over a dozen times. It's was my baby brother's favorite.
Ok, how do we know she van write in ERIC'S language. Her writing her name on the contract could have been in an undersea language
@@keriannekerr1876 the contract was in English.
What really shocked me was how Flounder had the courage to get Jaws to help with the Prince Eric statue.
Actually the shark’s name is Glut
@@bigSpidermanfanIn the movie, sure. But this shark is clearly Jaws because of the high-pitched voice.
@@piercelindenberg6842 The shark from Jaws was named Bruce.
In the wise words of another shark, "Fish are friends, not food"
@@TheRealSkeletor yeah, I know, but Palpatine calls him Jaws.
I really love how when a live action Disney remake comes out HISHE makes a video on the original one.
the REAL one.
@@vitormenezesdemattos967 Me with a chad face:"YES"
What remake? There is no remake.
@@bluegetsuga8396 damn right there is not!
@@bluegetsuga8396 There is no remake in Ba Sing Se.
"How was I supposed to know she could write?"
"When she signed the contract"
That is gold! XD And this is definitely more logical than the original plot.
and this is something they corrected in the movie
You know honestly I never thought about it before now, but I guess yeah they’re right: it would’ve definitely made the story much easier for her if she could’ve just WROTE DOWN messages to Eric about what was happening, considering that she signed her name to Ursula’s contract, so clearly she knows how to write.
Unless the fish people use a different written language than humans. They're literally different species, it's amazing they can even understand each other. Why would they have the exact same written system?
@@thomassloaw that is a fair point for the human side of the problem but given that Arial is a member of the royal family it would make sense she would get an education
@@onslaught147the fish and eels speak the same language, I don't get your point when disney proved that animals can talk to eachother
(Also in disney humans are the stupidest animal lol)
that's why this is gold. I never thought about that either
At the very least she knows how to sign her name, which for a royal would be necessary for signing documents and stuff like this, but having to read or write anything else, they never needed to learn that because they have people for it
3:12 the way shark goes from "your girl needs help" to "ok im gonna eat you now" is pure gold, what a family friendly vibe
Dude! How are everywhere?? I do not understand how you do it! You're going to be like the new "some guy without a mustache" 😂
@Will Andrews yeah I was going to comment that too. Maybe their are multiple people with the same name but idk.
@@laynemangus most like different people on the same account
Fish are friends, not food!
Pretty sure that’s Jaws from the Villain Pub.
I loved all of the Easter Eggs you included in the Ariel's Grotto! The vase from Hercules, Genie's lamp, Captain Hook's Hook, and Yzma's llama potion were so fun to see!
As well as Cinderella's slipper.
Also, Alice's 'drink me' potion, Lumiere & Cogsworth from Beauty & the Beast 😆, Rafiki's stick, & I think that's the sword from Mulan?
And there's the vase with the Muses from Hercules too! So much details, it's amazing, great work 🥰
@@elevateandempower yea it was Mulans Sword
Wow!
I never saw Rafiki's stick until you said that.
Ursula: “How was I suppose to know she can write?!!”
Eels: “When she signed the contract”
Ursula:😱
I already knew about the issue that Ariel could’ve wrote to Eric, but I never thought of her stealing her father’s triton to make herself human. And for Eric’s statue ending up with all the other treasures, I always just assumed that it just sunk down there through the hole into the cave when the ship sunk. Then again, the hole to that place is pretty small. Maybe it crashed its way in there when it happened. Whatever, point is, I think Flounder simply found the statue in there when he went there and went to bring Ariel to it. Also, I don’t think Ariel would’ve got her voice back after kissing Eric. She would only become a human permanently while Ursula keeps the voice as payment.
She literally signed her name with her eyes closed- and near perfect calligraphy.
And stayed on the line. I was impressed
She IS a princess, so makes sense her dad made sure her writing education was top notch. ^^
2:54 Behind the Eric statue, there is a Grecian urn with the Muses from "Hercules" and farther on that shelf is Captain Hook's infamous hook. On a shelf, there is Yzma's vile that turns Kuzco into a llama, next to that is the "Drink Me" bottle from "Alice in Wonderland." Above that, there is Cinderella's glass slipper. On the right of the statue, there is Aladdin's Magic Lamp, and below that, there is a Cogworth clock. And there's also Rafiki's staff.
Eric just turned 18 in the original movie. He is two years older than Ariel. Also, some time did in fact pass shortly after Ariel and Eric reunited in the shore after Ursula's defeat and before they got married.
The voice of Eric, Christopher Daniel Barnes, was only a teenager when he recorded it. He was also on a sitcom at the time called *Day By Day* after replacing the abysmally bad Danny Pintauro on *As the World Turns,* which caused the dreadful ABC sitcom he left it for to wait a year to premiere after taping a pilot they could just as easily have shelved or recast.
Didn't he play Greg Brady in The Brady Bunch Movie and A Very Brady Sequel?
Uh, no, they're throwing a birthday party for him at the end of the movie, pretty sure it's his *30th*.
Quick google search says 18@@bluedragonfly8139
The screenwriters all confirm that Eric is 18 and the movie ends with their wedding, not Eric's birthday party.
Eric did celebrate his birthday early in the film but his age is never specified onscreen. He does appear to be in his 20s.
I wish we could’ve gotten a scene of Ursula in the Villain Pub venting her frustration over Ariel outsmarting her to Jack Nicholson’s Joker, Emperor Palpatine, Ricardo Montalban’s Kahn Noonien Singh and Terrence Stamp’s General Zod. That would’ve definitely been hilarious.
Also, the guy voicing Sebastian does a really great impression of the late Samuel E. Wright. Disney should definitely hire him to be the new voice of Sebastian.
Might as well throw in Legend's Prince of Darkness in there too.
the Villain pub needs a booth for several Jokers
@@SpamEggSausage That one Joker already is all of them, just give it some time, a bit of capriciousness, or a few Batman Punches for the change to happen.
Too bad it's not
Little Mermaid Remake: *exists*
HISHE: "This is where the fun begins."
I thought they would make a reference to the remake🤔
@@breakofdawn5249 me too. I was waiting for that
Ah yes,
A "Revenge Of The Sith" reference from Star Wars.
Those were the real good days of Star Wars.
@@breakofdawn5249 I think that this is the reference.
"Sorry bub. THIS is the story we wanted"
@@breakofdawn5249 as long as they point out how it's completely unnecessary and full of identity politics
Best joke is about "16th birthday")
Nice work!
All I could think about was that pre-Disney Sherman brothers song covered by Ringo Starr.
It was 14th century Norway.
@@eyeseer1
The Little Mermaid was written in Denmark, not Norway. But it's unlikely that the film is set there because there's palm trees and flamingoes.
I'm 30 years old and seen The Little Mermaid probably a thousand times and never thought about the whole writing thing 🙈🤦
SAME! 😂
😂
2:05 - “Hold up, Prince! I’m just 16. Let’s have an arrangement first. Call your parents, I’ll call my Dad. We’ll plan for the wedding two years from now. In the meantime, let’s make this an engagement.”
-- Ariel was hasty. So, as the prince. They didn’t plan ahead. 😂
Ariel!
Ariel!
Girl mermaid
No, about MEN mermaid.
Lern self Y
Please. Eric was 18, not some older guy in his 20s or 30s.
16 and 18 are fine.
To be fair about the part of Ariel being 16, the movie does imply that there is a time skip after defeating Ursula and them getting married.
It would still be legal, especially at that time.
@@Rocket1377 Plus, Eric is 18. He shouldn't be bothered by being 2 years older than Ariel. Especially since this is the 18th century on a fictional Italian maritime island kingdom (called Tirulia in some media), so an alliance with Atlantica would be nothing but beneficial. Not to mention most kingdoms at the time would consider a 16 year old princess to be long overdue for marriage.
Very true even for the time period that wouldn't be a big deal. Even most states have a clause about 18-16 year Olds dating
For the time period it would be 100% normal. Most women would be betrothed or married by 16. (Especially royalty) That said, there are many places in the US today where the legal age for marriage is even younger, as disturbing as that is.
There’s some debate on which country this takes place in. The original story is from Denmark but geographically it’s more likely in Greece or Italy
"When she signed the contract"
Pure gold
Wow, HISHE's really stepped it up with this episode. The animation is breath-taking!
Quick little side note…
Your flounder is one of the most adorable renditions of the character I’ve ever seen in my entire life.
And the voice matches perfectly too. Kudos.
People, making sense and entertainment in a story just don’t go together. So please don’t expect them to go together ALL the time. 😅
How have I never thought about the fact that she can write and read??? Lol that’s a major oversight for this movie
Yeah, but it's a fairy tail. There are supposed to be things we just accept as logic even if they don't make sense.
Honestly i never saw it as a mistake. It had to be "the kiss of true love" which isn't accomplished through writing. All of the Disney princesses could write, but writing how you feel just isn't fantastical
Assuming mermaids write in English. I guess so, they speak it.
@@wade7652 I mean, she literally wrote "Ariel" in English when she signed the contract. Not to mention the contract itself was also written in English.
@@BP-dn9nv tale*
Now we all know how Flounder could get the statue inside Ariel’s collection.
I love when they randomly bring back characters from older hishe episodes 😅
Okay the literal Jumping Ship when he found out she was 16 is the best part
Slightly confusing at first, but then remembered it's American.
@@Dave-ks9fi Still at those times Girls took mariage at the age of 16, besides Ariel did have a birthday just a few days before wedding scene, am i right. Right?!
@@micharosa6201 No, it never was her birthday in the movie. She could have been 16 for months.
@@micharosa6201 don't know. I'm from England, so the age of consent here is 16 and you can marry at that age with parental approval, not that the second point is that common anymore.
For me it was when Ursula said "who knew she could write" and the seahorse says "when she signed the contact" ...i mean like Durr!
1:37 This was exactly what I've been questioning about for years!!! Why didn't she just write???🤣🤣🤣
It wouldn't be much of a movie would it?
I assume that all forms of communication would be included in the spell. Just because Ariel could write her name before the spell, doesn't mean she would be able to do so afterwards.
@@ericdunn7352 nah it wouldn't.
Because:
1. Eric wouldn't have believed her because she's mute.
2. The kiss had to be based on love, not gratitude.
3. What was she supposed to write that wouldn't mske her sound crazy?
I would think it came down to Ursula's statements before the spell was cast. Ariels gullibility took hold when Ursula had said that she had her looks and body language.
0:27 - Ariel says "Well, how do I look?".
The way Ursula said her iconic”ZIP”
Imagine the FBI coming and arresting Eric at his wedding. 😂
That should have ended in this should have ended!
Considering the time period 16 is pretty old to be getting married. 12 used to be the legal age you know.
then he puts on a dress so they drop all charges.
Chris Hensen "Why don't you take a seat right over there".
@@jakushkadarkstalker6278 That's not really true. While it was common for royalty, so it applies in this case, historically, late teens/early 20's was typical for common people. Mainly because a man had to show he could provide and a woman's family would need to build a dowry.
Now That’s a Called An Happy Ending.
@@gradientO It's fine considering Disney's recent live actions
@Don't Read My Profile Picture THEN DON’T COMMENT!!
When I saw the thumbnail and title, I was like “they’re gonna mention the Ariel writing loophole, aren’t they?” Wasn’t disappointed 😂
HEY! SHELBYE KARR! AMAZING work with the Easter eggs in the background at the end! :D We had a lot of fun going back and citing them all!
I love that Ariel’s grotto is full of Disney easter eggs.
I love how they give the animated movies a different art quality in their HISHE videos.
Ikr?
@@ocboy5163
Yeah.
I didn't even think about that before but it makes perfect sense. since they do it all animated, how else could they create a clear distinction on whether the source material is also animated or not. that's clever, damn I love hishe
this does beg the question of why ariel never thought of writing notes or anything. She even could have passed off losing her voice as an accident or something that happened after saving Eric without having to reveal any magic or anything behind it.
Prince Eric jumping like Prince Charming was gold!
2:40 in the 19th century it was totally normal to get married at that age
Eric had also apparently just barely turned 18, so it's not like a dramatic age difference
Also, not American and if he is below 23 even today it could be legal in many places in the USA
Cool, it's 2024 now, so it's no longer normal.
I was actually expecting a crossover with Aquaman, is that weird?
Kind of
Not really
Lol would of been funny if he did show up and Ariel would immediately fall head over heels for him and choose him instead of Eric 🤣
You mean the new actor for Steve in the Minecraft movie?
no was expecting that to especially with the redheads joke
The deal wasn't "get your voice back once you get the kids" though. She only gets her voice back in the movie because Skuttle broke the shell containing it.
2:16 "Is the couple ready to be married??"
"WE SURE A ---- WHOA!! PADRE!!!! WHAT'S GOING ON DOWN THERE!!!!!!!!"

Love this! I discovered HISHE through Neebs Gaming. I'm so glad I checked you guys out. I look forward to enjoying your content.
Ursula never stated Ariel would get her voice back if she managed her to kiss Eric her voice was a payment for turning her human Ursula just said she would become human permanently if she & Eric shared true love kiss so therefore, while she be human she would remain mute
Love the Jaws cameo: “Flounder one fish to another, your girl needs help… Okay I’m gonna eat you now!”
3:03 Disney needs to take that advice to heart.
I haven’t watched one of these videos in a while and it feels like everything has just really improved, both the animation and the voice work. It seemed a lot more fluid and less rigid
2:35 Wuss!
2:13 Just noticed the Easter egg to the Broadway Musical! She even drew a little heart above the I!
Remember, the story was originally written when girls would marry as early as possible, 14 was common back then. If Disney REALLY wanted to modernize the fairy tales they adapt they should bump up the character ages a bit
Disney should have left it TF alone after the original.
We have a video covering it ages ago, but in a nutshell, 14 was never actually common at any point in known human history. :-) In fact one of the earliest average ages to get married for women in known history was actually around the baby boomer generation very recently obviously... Who also had some of the highest divorce rates in known history.... 😋 The misconception that this was common primarily stems from royals and the like who did do stuff like this constantly with super early marriages for political reasons obviously. :-) For practical reasons others did too at times and it was also far more accepted to an extent. But when looking at marriage records and things throughout history which are reasonably well documented because of the church and royals keeping track of their subjects and all, still wasn't the norm to have teen girls get married, contrary to popular perception. :-) -Daven
@@TodayIFoundOut this Ariel story is about a f ing Royal/ Eric and a princess/ Ariel, so you've just contradicted yourself.
@Today I Found Out Nice essay but where's your proof of this? On the contrary. Marrying at ages in the teens is actually well recorded in history. Church records are btw not the only sources of reference, you are narrowing your research to a small pool of information, not very reliable.
The original tale has a tragic ending unlike the Disney version lmao
Ursula: You see? The contract is legal, binding and completely unbreakable even for you!
Triton: Hmmm hey Ursula what's that?
Ursula: Huh? (turns away)
(Triton blasts Ursula killing her and her eels thus freeing Arial)
Arial: Oh Daddy thank you!
Triton: Arial are you ok?
Arial: Yes, good shot by the way!
Triton: Well yeah I figured her contract is unbreakable but she isn't!
THE END! XD
0:31 - Scuttle says "Great googly moogly!, What kind of monstrous mutation is happening here?".
I don't think her being 16 would've been too much of a problem in whatever time period this movie takes place in. (My guess is probably some time around 1600s-1800s or something like that)

I like how they time these with the live action remakes
@@h193013 I mean, I love hishe so much and respect and enjoy their work, but them timing it with the live action remakes is kinda the entire point. it garners more attention, gets more views, and is more likely to get recommended by the algorithm when it's timed in conjunction with it already being on the minds of the public/viewers. they clearly work hard on their content, so it makes sense to be strategic about it so the work pays off at optimal levels. it's just an example of the level of planning and scheduling that content creators have to be aware of. those of us already here would probably see these regardless of when they dropped it, but new viewers are less likely to get it in their recommendations unless it's timed properly

@@bluedragonfly8139 1) I looked it up on Wikipedia. WP had links to Disney's own website.
2) Because it was one of those things that I THOUGHT I knew, but once the question came up, I realized I didn't actually know.
3) That's actually not true; 16 is a marriageable age in most of the world with certain caveats. Aside from that, if getting married at 16 is a squicky concept that shouldn't be normalized by putting it on the movie screen, then maybe we ought to find other stories to adapt instead of the Grimm ones.

There's no kids who want to watch that
Great Jodi Benson impression! Funnily enough, though Jodi Benson was in her twenties, the guy who voiced Eric, Christopher Daniel Barnes, actually was 16 when he played the character. It just always makes me laugh when people bring up potential age issues.
Back in the day it was okay for teenagers to get married to older adults or young adults.
Yet I saw a video recently talking about how time must have gone by before the wedding so Ariel could have been Eric’s age by then.😉

0:27 Brother, get the Flamer.
*THE HEAVY FLAMER!!!*
In the live action version, Ursula's spell also included a partial memory wipe of Ariel.
still trying to wrap my brain around that extra trick...like why?
😂 This section of the video is hilarious 1:49 YES! simply write it down in the sand that would have saved so much confusion, Eric spent half the movie simply trying to guess her name correctly which delayed the kiss as he was trying to wait for the girl he saw on the beach the one who sang to him while passed out which allowed Ursala to decive him with her magic. haha, but one thing which wasn't considered do they teach writing under the sea? well Ariel wrote her name on the contract hence apparently she can write at least some yet Eric never provided her with a means to communicate via writing instead she had to gesture mime through half the film which of course stretched the story out as Eric could barely understand what she was trying to say I even thought of this briefly when I was little, I thought why hasn't anyone given her something to write on? perhaps she can write it down, but nope that didn't happen haha. side note Eric wouldn't be able to read my writing he would be like huh what? and I'd have to go back to gesture miming to communicate 😢
I should have known you guys were gonna make this! I was still happily surprised. The writing bit was brilliant!
Yeah that’s the biggest issue I have with the movie, why didn’t she use the trident from the start???
Question is...how can she even get it away from her father?
To be fair, I think things like that usually need experience. Like you wouldn’t expect a 16 year old to know how to properly use a gun?
Also I find it nice that he wanted to wait until she was of age 😊

So, there’s actually no reason she’d get the voice back. It was the payment for the spell. The kiss is what would make or break the spell.
On another note, it’s been suggested that since mermaids are known to lure sailors to their deaths by singing to them, Ariel’s singing wasn’t actually what attracted Eric in the first place, but instead the enchantment behind it.
exactly. the only reason ariel got her voice back is scuttle broke ursula's shell. only thing kissing eric would have done was kept her human. so she'd just be a mute human. ursula could have used ariel's voice perhaps to lure triton into a trap but that's about it.
Good point
I never picked up on this. I never realized that her voice was non refundable. I've seen this movie more times than I can count. Wow!
Don’t underestimate the importance of Body language
I was about to type this. The only reason Ariel got her voice back in the movie was because Ursula lost it when fighting with Scuttle. Real question is why didn't Ursula just kill/kidnap Eric to keep him from kissing Ariel?
The fact that this is much better than Disney's live action
That hasn't come out yet. Though it most likely will since we haven't gotten a good live action remake since the Jungle Book.
Saw this comment coming a mile away
@@diegopansini3152 hah me too but I saw that no one wrote it so I decided to do the honors
@@notyet.... I don’t blame you
No duh
Love all the Easter Egg objects in Ariel’s collection. Nice touch! 👍🏻
Hans Christian Anderson (OG author of Little mermaid who made it tragic tale, also OG author of Little match girl and Thumbelina): *rolls in grave*
I think you should do other Disney Renaissance animated movies you haven't done yet that got botched up by a live-action reimagining of it like : "Sleeping Beauty," "Mulan," "Peter Pan," "Dumbo," or "Pinocchio"
I have my idea about the Sleeping Beauty.
Maleficent: I was very disappointed to not get an invitation.
King and queen: We're terribly sorry. Please, forgive us.
Maleficent: OK. Just promise you won't forget me next time.
King and queen: Promised.
Aurora grows to be a beautiful princess and when she becomes queen and mother, she makes sure that Maleficent is invited to her children's baptism.
@@babyfreiza4377 that too
@@lindildeev5721 Merryweather (to Maleficent): But you still interrupted me before I could even give my blessing! Why are your majesties all of a sudden gonna let her come to this christening?
Those are not 90s movies
@@hunterolaughlin King and queen: Because we don't want her to put a curse you'll have to modify yourself on our daughter. So, please, give Aurora your blessing and let Maleficent give hers too.
Merryweather: Okay, okay.
Maleficent: Thank you. Well, Aurora, I give you the generosity so you will never forget the others like your parents did.
this is already going to be better than the live action, calling it now
The bar is already set abysmally low from the others(Pinocchio, Mulan, lion King). Not to mention it's loaded with unnecessary changes and identity politics. My 5 year old could do a better job than Disney at this point
That's your opinion. There are people that enjoy the live action remakes after all
@@jasonmaclean719 the only two i genuinely liked were Aladdin and Beauty And The Beast, because, you know, those actually had life in them
The Jungle Book & Maleficent (from what i remember) was pretty good too, despite growing up not caring about The Jungle Book
From what I hear, they made the kiss contract more complicated that it already was.
Ariel doesn't need help, she needs appreciation.
That's funny. Didn't know your channel was alive until now 😅. Great video 💙🐝💙
This is the best!!
I remember a Toei Animations' older adaptation of the Little Mermaid where the prince actually asks her to write who she is but there she has the excuse of NOT being able to write.
In the Disney version, she CAN! So half of the movie has a big plot hole. I mean, couldn't they just watch the previous adaptations? Like TOEI'S ??
THANK YOU!
Also, in the fairy tale, it was never established that the mermaid could write, since the mermaid never signed a contract. She just had her tongue cut in exchange for a potion that will turn her human. 😬
Ursula: What? No!! How was I supposed to know she could write?!
Flotsam/Jetsam: *When she signed the contract*
😂😂😂😂😂!!
All these years and "ok i'm gonna eat ya now" is still this channels best line
Loving the Vector Quality vid!
2:27 but isn't eric 18 years old? So he's a little young too isn't he?
Yeah, but he looks 30 years old.
The most unbelievable part is him bailing after finding out her age
20 years later and I realised Ariel signed the contract and therefore could write.
Whether she knows English or another human language & literacy is for another debate
0:12 - Flounder says "Ariel, I don't think this is such a good idea.".
Ursala: "How was I supposed to know she could write?"
Minons: "When she signed the contract" x2
I do want to point out, though, that the contract says "I hereby grant unto Ursula, the Witch of the Sea...one voice...........for all eternity. Signed, Ariel"
Nowhere in the explanation or the song or the contract do we see or hear anything which indicates that Ariel will get her voice back upon receiving a kiss from Prince Eric. It is simply agreed that she will not return to being a mermaid if she can get him to kiss her.
16 is legal in Scandinavia. Scriptwriters should try doing some research instead of assuming everyone has the same laws as California
0:34 it's called AI generated humans
This comment got me good😂
This is awesome! I hope you never stop making HISHE episodes! Love you!
