Like, the story kinda goes like this- the female character, who's brave, determined, clumsy, hardworking, naive, optimistic, cute and all that, overall a "good" character (Tiana, Judy, Anna, Rapunzel, Moana, even Vanellope could count into this) has to go on a mystical journey to understand herself/resolve an issue. On the way, she meets up with the male lead, who's always a jerk, a sleaze, a con, or anything in between (Naveen, Flynn, Kristoff, Nick, Maoi) , the two initially don't get along but on the journey their bond gets stronger.
Might also have a red herring villain/plot twist villain or a message that could deconstruct/previous Disney perceptions/cliches or carry important messages. Granted, almost all Disney films carry important messages, but these seem much more unique compared to the old ones- grief for your lost loved ones, don't trust strangers, anyone can be prejudiced and you can be the change the world needs...
I suppose as long as the films are good, it's not a problem? But it can get tiring, especially if the characters all just resembling each other, and the plot twist villain...Really only King Candy and Hans made that cliche work. i don't even remember the sheep's name or what she did...
I wonder if this cliche will appear in Gigantic, which would be weird, since the female lead would be like, 5 years old, as far as i've heard...Hard to make a toddler a "hardworking determiner" character.
Wreck it Ralph also has these themes, but it differs in that Ralph is a good guy and not a jerk, and he's the main lead more than Vanellope, which I think it's a difference.
About Gigantic, i read somewhere the initial plans for the movie. The story would be like an adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk, where Jack goes up to the clouds, and meets a "little giant girl". They formed a friendship, but the main issue was that the girl's father, the leader of the giants, was against forming relationships with humans. And the struggle was the little girl obeying her father or going against him...
It kinda sounded different from the usual Disney new era cliche, but i'm not sure if they'll keep the story the same once the film comes out. I wouldn't be surprised if they change it to Moana/Tangled/Frozen in Spain or something, seeing how the audience likes these stories.
Although, it rips off ALOT from How to Train your Dragon...
The original story sounds the most authentic. By the time it goes through production and makes it to the screen, who knows? It could resemble a lot of everything else that's already out there...
Rather, the 90s were also formulaic (all of them are coming of age musicals with a love story thrown in there), but at least the main plots were different- the lion king has little to do with aladdin, hercules isn't like beauty and the beast...I mean the characters and the plots differed enough to be their own thing despite sharing a few elements in common.
Funny enough for all the time people criticize the Walt Era films at least they were varied in this aspect. Alice in Wonderland is highly different from Cinderella, and Fantasia is very different from Lady and the Tramp...There wasn't this pattern either. Except for one- the sidekicks overtaking the screentime over the main leads.
"even nonwhite people can use racism too as a weapon of power."
that happens all the time in third world countries. ;)
Sounds suspiciously like audrey grace.
