Film Theory: Disney's Biggest Disasters! (Moana, Hercules, Lion King...)

When you want to get the theory done before the end of 2018 but you spent hours looking and calculating Madagascar’s square miles to see how many lemurs would fit

Disney fans: "There cant possibly be that much deaths in Disney movies" Matpat: "Hold my Dietcoke"

I wonder if MatPat is gonna have PTSD flashbacks when his kid starts watching these movies... Ollie: "Dad, aren't you gonna finish watching Mulan with me? It's getting to the cool Avalanche part!!!" rocking in fetal position MatPat: "1,200 dead.... The army... Chanyu... GNU Octave..."

I'd love to see this series done with Pixar movies

Just wanna say, the “Titanomachy” depicted in Disney’s Hercules is much more similar to the Gigantomachy. The two are separate events which are often confused. The Titanomachy was the ten-year battle between the Olympians and the Titans that ended with the Titans being imprisoned in Tartarus. The Gigantomachy was a battle with the Giants, and the one Heracles was involved in.

People: How many childhoods are you going to ruin? MatPat: Yes.

"When one dies, it is a tragedy. When a million die, it is a statistic" - Stalin, but also Disney

As someone who took Oceanography in college I got to say I am so proud of MatPat for talking about the Minoans for Atlantis because that's where I leaned about them! Not from Greek mythology lectures in literature when we were discussing the Minotaur in Highschool, but the beginnings of Human Civilization as it related to the ocean AND that class is also where I learned about the Minoans originating the Monitor myths. I am so proud of MatPat for knowing that and including it here. First YouTuber I have seen to actually research this one deeper than saying "Atlantis was a myth". Thank you MatPat for constantly searching deeper into the history books than simply leaving anything on surface level knowledge (or non knowledge as the case may be 😅). Thank you and I really appreciate it

9:01 wasn’t there a point in the movie tho where Moana woke up from sleeping and went way out of the path she was supposed to be on? So she had to turn the boat

Friend: Hey, whatcha doing this weekend? Me: Oh, just watching all 58 Walt Disney movies and calculating the deaths to find out which Disney movie is the deadliest. Friend: slowly backs away

I'd love a Pixar continuation, but I'm worried about your health.

5:54 I love how the guy who writes the subtitles voted for Mulan and right here you can see his disappointment

Yay "Dinosaur" finally gets some love, that's me FAVORITE movie😊

Maui: * snaps fingers * The islands: I don't feel so good

Me: Wanted to learn about how many people got killed in Disney Matpat: literally finds the city of Atlantis Me:Well ain’t that neat.

26:55 That one didn't age quite so well......

I'm oddly proud of Dinosaur being number 1 in most Disney deaths and being the last one talked about, because Dinosaur is one of my favorite Disney movies, I watched it DOZENS of times when I was a kid, and still to this day, I LOVE IT! Even more so due to it being a highly underrated and overlooked movie compared to Land Before Time and the newer The Good Dinosaur. It had one of the scariest scenes I have ever seen in any Disney movie: the meteor scene. It's probably something I've had nightmares about and dreaded imagining happening in modern days. Just imagine looking up at the sky as it turns red and dark, then there's a meteor shower, and suddenly you see this HUGE FREAKING FIRE ROCK fall down and disappears behind the horizon at the sea, followed by a bright light, a mushroom cloud, a shockwave and then a ROAR, followed then by debris coming your way... accompanied by intense, panicky background music and panicking lemurs trying desperately to run away from their certain doom! Also the CGI at the time of its release is so amazingly realistic, even when the animals are making human facial expressions and talking, they still look very real, and the locations in the movie are filmed at real life landscapes. As a kid, I thought it was all CGI and thought the rocks and water looked so incredibly real... and that's because they ARE real. It's just the animals and meteor shower and disaster that's been computer generated into the filming, but I think they probably did use some animatronics at certain scenes, like when Aladar gets up from the water and steps on some rocks and we see his wet feet, the rocks seem real enough, so they're likely being moved by an animatronic maybe, I dunno, I'm just guessing here. And maybe replaced by CGI later? Dinosaur may not be as big or popular or musical or successful as The Lion King or Frozen or whatever, but it has a special place in my heart, and it is the reason why carnotaurs are my favorite carnivorous dinosaurs and why I also have a soft spot for iguanodons. Dinosaur deserves more love and attention, and I think becoming number 1 on the death count of Disney movies definitely gives it more attention than the movies that already has so much recognition like TLK and Hercules and what not. Dinosaur FTW!

Matpat: (slaps roof of Madagascar) "This bad boy can fit so many dead lemurs in it"

PIXAR! VERSION! PIXAR! VERSION! PIXAR! VERSION! PIXAR! VERSION! PIXAR! VERSION! PIXAR! VERSION! C'mon, say it with me!

6:51 Nathan Explosion?! id never expect to see him on Film Theory, but with the upcoming movie, some Metalocalypse theories would be super cool!
