I mean you could say that she worked hard for most of her life, but then that would make the ending more of a reward for good karma instead of her working hard at her job leading to success. I mean she worked hard to stop being a frog.

I’ll say her family never gets charity from them. More like a lot of work and payment since they make dresses for them. I suppose that alleviates some possible money problems, but she had to work to make those dresses.

She legitimately worked 2+ jobs and saved all the down payment money herself.

The moral was more about appreciating life as a journey and trying to see the good you have rather than being so goal oriented that you're just constantly bemoaning that you're not where you want to be yet.

By far the weirdest part of the movie was the decision to not make the rich white people evil. It would have been so easy to have the white friend look down on her or have the dad give a racist black handed compliment.

Honestly the white family is kind of wholesome. Just a dad that wanted to treat his daughter like a princess. Hires black woman as a seamstress, pays her and lets her daughter hang out with his daughter.

She didn't get shit from the prince, he was broke, that's like 99% of his character; and they never implied her rich friend funded anything other than that last bit of cash at the beginning of the movie, and, uh, being a regular client, I guess.
She legitimately worked 2+ jobs and saved all the down payment money herself. The only bit of "magic" that helped her get the restaurant was the fact she got a gator friend that spooked the shit out of the guys that owned the place and undid that plothook where someone may or may not have outbid her. THe movie wasn't particularly clear if the guys were just booting her out because of her race, or if someone legitimately outbid her.

[Assistant]
>>137022442
That’s the point and honestly a little bit of both, one of them says she’s being outbid and then throws a snide kid-friendly racial remark I can’t remember, so she’s probably was outbid and they’re not in any hurry to give her more time or feel bad about it over her race

It was something to the effect of "someone from your... background". Which could have been taken as either a racial remark or the rich bankers just not wanting anything to do with her because she was from a poor background. Probably shades of both. Both things were extremely rampant in early 1900s New Orleans.

She didn't though? The ending shows that she bought the restaurant with the same deposit money she had at the start of the film, only difference is that the racist property guys couldn't unfairly refuse her (because they DID accept her offer first originally) because she had a vicious alligator to back her up this time.

What Tiana's mom did wasn't really menial labour, its not like she was just a laundry lady or only did repair work with her sewing, she was making special order dresses seemingly from scratch for Charlotte, plus it's not like Tiana and her mom were live-in workers, they had to be called over. The mom was definitely getting paid, though admittedly probably not nearly as much as she should've been.

Many older black women took up seasmtressing to make clothes for white children on the request of rich white people.

That’s not the moral of the story at the end, it’s more like the personal life philosophy of the main character at the start. The actual morals are a little more convoluted, but I think one of the bigger ones was about moderation. Yknow, “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” as well as “all play and no work makes… something that is also bad.”

She actually got it because the crocodile threatened bodily harm to the bankers who passed up on her offer and forced them to sign under duress, then apparently used Nazeem's and the mayor's political clout to prevent anything done about it and she just got to keep her ill gotten restaurant.

Which you know is just a touch worse.

I’ll say her family never gets charity from them. More like a lot of work and payment since they make dresses for them. I suppose that alleviates some possible money problems, but she had to work to make those dresses.

By far the weirdest part of the movie was the decision to not make the rich white people evil. It would have been so easy to have the white friend look down on her or have the dad give a racist black handed compliment.

Honestly the white family is kind of wholesome. Just a dad that wanted to treat his daughter like a princess. Hires black woman as a seamstress, pays her and lets her daughter hang out with his daughter.

They didn't accept a deposit, she was expecting them to bring the paperwork to the party.

You can obviously see the racist undertones but apparently they just wanted more money, in cash, now.

Call it cartoony if you want but she still only got what she wanted by threatening violence to people who were just being greedy. Naveen pulling rank would ironically have been less

And? Money talks more, apparently. They were about to bring her the paperwork before someone literally came in with more, and in cash in the eleventh hour. So does threats of murder, I guess.

I think the idea that the fancy party was an excuse to give her money is probably a bit of a stretch for Charlotte, but you're definitely right that she would at least know that Tiana would never ask her for hand-outs and would reject any if Charlotte offered anyway.

She just doesn't seem to think much of money in general due to how spoiled she is, getting everything she wants, the way she just casually nabs her fathers wallet and gives Tiana a huge wad of it without counting in order to pay her for the catering thing makes that pretty obvious.

I thought the moral was more like "hard work is important but it isn't everything" or "there's more to life than the one thing you obsess over". Tiana lived to work instead of working to live because she wanted to be like her dad but she learned to let loose a bit and also found love and whatnot.

By far the weirdest part of the movie was the decision to not make the rich white people evil. It would have been so easy to have the white friend look down on her or have the dad give a racist black handed compliment.

Honestly the white family is kind of wholesome. Just a dad that wanted to treat his daughter like a princess. Hires black woman as a seamstress, pays her and lets her daughter hang out with his daughter.

To be fair that's one of the few Disney movies to take place in America, and in a capitalist system working harder only really makes other people more money, "pulling yourself up by your bootstraps" was always a myth. If you want money you either need to be struck-by-lightning lucky or be born into it.

You can blame it on Pooh failing against Harry Potter if you want, everyone knows the real answer. Nobody really thinks a cheap little 30 million movie with barely any advertising up against a movie that had 0 successes around it was as devastating as watching their highly marketed, highly merchandised "Return to form" utterly sputter out while the Chipmunks Squeakwel was doing gangbusters in front of it. They tried to have their media blame Pooh, but we know the answer.

>3D is cheap as fuck compared to 2D
This is 100 percent wrong and to this day I don't know how people keep saying it, it pretty much always gets called out. There is not a single CGI Disney movie that cost under 130 million, with 180 and 200 million being the most common, and the most expensive 2D movie of all time cost the same as Bolt. BOLT. Do you remember Bolt? It cost the same as Treasure Planet. Princess and the Frog literally cost 50 million less than Frozen, and adjusted for inflation The Lion King cost less than Despicable Me 2. DESPICABLE ME 2. A movie that was touted as being extraordinarily cheap, that was a selling point, and it somehow was still more expensive than Lilo and Stitch.

CGI costs have plummeted in recent years to absurd levels, and yet almost 6 hours of Green Eggs and Ham level animation still cost as much as one hour and twenty minutes of Abominable. CGI is fucking expensive, but Disney hasn't had a 2D animated movie cross 300 million at the box office since the year 2000. There were 10 theatrical Disney 2D movies released since the turn of the millennium and not a single goddamn one managed to make as much as Chicken Little. That shitheap managed to beat everything from big budget disappointments like Atlantis to critical darlings like Lilo and Stitch. Maybe with AI CGI will finally become as cheap as everyone thinks it is.

[Assistant]
>>137050500
Don't forget, just for an Apples to Apples comparison, that Ice Age, from a brand new feature studio that had only ever made commercials before and working with some lets be charitable and say "Rough" looking CGI cost 90 million to make. Lilo and Stitch? With Disney high quality animation and redoing the ENTIRE FUCKING FINALE FROM SCRATCH, literally redoing 1/3rd of an entire movie with all the other changes they had to make for censorship, cost 80 million. Something with Lilo and Stitch's animation, which still looks good to this day and with a massive chunk of the movie 100 percent animated and then tossed out and redone from scratch, with Disney level marketing and push and hype, cost 10 million less than a comparatively cheap brand new studio with animation that didn't even hold up at the time.

And then Ice Age made more money and became a Billion dollar franchise.

See that's the weird thing about everyone claiming racism. Tiana's story only makes sense if her focus on working wasn't enough, because there was always someone who had a little more willing to offer a little more. She needed real connections and apparently to have carte blanche to straight up threaten murder with no repercussions via friendship and relationships to truly get what she wanted. In hindsight the alligator scene kind of undercuts most of the actual message about working hard but also making connections.

But not in this particular case, is the point. They had someone paying more than her, they say this plain as possible. They were absolutely smug about it and knew damn well how hard it was for her to get this much, they also said that, and they sure as shit weren't sad about not selling to her, but nothing in the story implies that they made up an imaginary other buyer other than someone desperately wanting the violence threat scene to be less shitty. They were racist, but more importantly they were a part of the bigger message about how chasing money is fruitless if you have no one to fall back on, someone always has more.

Atlantis, Treasure Planet and Lilo and Stitch all had massive 120-150 million marketing budgets apparently(Different sources cite different amounts, none of them put it beneath 120 million for the cheapest, which was Atlantis), Treasure Planet in particular was apparently a DEEPLY marketed movie because they were sure it was going to reignite the renaissance. Atlantis also had big plans, from games to rides at Disneyland planned. Lilo and Stitch was apparently a heavily marketed monster, they were sure his merch was going to fly(And point to them, it did apparently do well for them to continue with a series instead of the planned theatrical sequels, same thing happened to Tangled.).

Meanwhile apparently Chicken Little was given very little marketing, some are citing it at just 75 million(Odd considering it's 150 million budget, which was way higher than any of those movies. It's even more expensive than Treasure Planet, the biggest budget 2D movie of all time.) while others put it at a more realistic 100 million. Regardless, everyone agrees Disney did not have a lot of faith in this movie, and then it somehow went on to beat all of their post 2000 2D movies. All of them. Because CGI fucking SOLD

>moral of the story is "work hard and your dreams will eventually come true"
Jesus fucking Christ, the movie literally spells it out for you that's not the message with the "Dig a little deeper" song, how the FUCK do you still miss the point?

Hell, when Tiana herself came to that conclusion after the song everyone was disappointed knowing they didn't get through to her. You'd have to be very dense to think that was what Disney was going for.

>3D is cheap as fuck compared to 2D
This is 100 percent wrong and to this day I don't know how people keep saying it, it pretty much always gets called out. There is not a single CGI Disney movie that cost under 130 million, with 180 and 200 million being the most common, and the most expensive 2D movie of all time cost the same as Bolt. BOLT. Do you remember Bolt? It cost the same as Treasure Planet. Princess and the Frog literally cost 50 million less than Frozen, and adjusted for inflation The Lion King cost less than Despicable Me 2. DESPICABLE ME 2. A movie that was touted as being extraordinarily cheap, that was a selling point, and it somehow was still more expensive than Lilo and Stitch.

CGI costs have plummeted in recent years to absurd levels, and yet almost 6 hours of Green Eggs and Ham level animation still cost as much as one hour and twenty minutes of Abominable. CGI is fucking expensive, but Disney hasn't had a 2D animated movie cross 300 million at the box office since the year 2000. There were 10 theatrical Disney 2D movies released since the turn of the millennium and not a single goddamn one managed to make as much as Chicken Little. That shitheap managed to beat everything from big budget disappointments like Atlantis to critical darlings like Lilo and Stitch. Maybe with AI CGI will finally become as cheap as everyone thinks it is.

Not that anon, but 3D's biggest boon is that assets can be reused indefinitely once they're made, as long as they don't age too poorly.
In a perfect world, this means 3D has a higher initial cost but costs less over time, such as in like Sonic Boom, where they got away with 6 or so locations, 20 character models and... that's it, they only had to create a couple custom assets here and there and they would've been set for a few extra seasons.

In terms of budgets in big-name shows and movies, they don't really reuse that much, and most movies/cartoons are one-shots with no hopes of sequels or spinoffs, so the higher initial 3D investment gets squandered on something that doesn't last long enough to matter, but I guess loads of studies show random normalfags prefer 3D to 2D, so companies just eat the costs, even if it's a bit of a waste.

I'm curious what normalfags see, I still remember years ago me and my brother were watching cartoons and he said "I like El Dorado even though the animation old and bad". That shit physically hurt.

I can see how he could think that in certain areas where they use obvious CGI, that could be pretty jarring to look at. But if he's talking about the 2D itself then he must be on some shit.

That's kind of minor to the sheer gap of potential box office/home video revenue you could potentially make with CGI vs 2D. Princess and the Frog was NOT a bomb, no matter what is said, it made money. It made more than twice it's budget, almost 3X even. But then we have something like Frozen, who cost 50-70 million more, but made over a billion dollars. Why would Dreamworks keep doing 2D when their biggest hit made 200 million, while Shrek 2 crossed 800 million? Even Dreamworks "Disappointments" like Monsters Vs Aliens made 380 million, that's a massive gap to something like Spirit.

Sure, Illumination loves reusing assets, Despicable Me 2 was mostly reused assets and many background characters from that ended up in the likewise(Comparatively cheap) Lorax, but if the sheer gap of 400 million to 1 billion revenue is just too great. It has a much higher cost, even when reusing assets(For comparison, Demon Slayer Mugen train cost 20 million, and the absolutely gorgeous artwork of Ponyo cost just 25 million, that's somehow cheaper than the Paw Patrol movie), but it just brings in more money. They don't need studies, they got receipts.

Don't forget that by the time of PATF, Pixar had EIGHT movies crossing 500 million worldwide, and Finding Nemo was briefly the highest grossing animated movie ever at a jaw dropping 800 million, until Shrek 2 managed to beat even that one year later. PATF came out at the tail end of failure after failures like Brother Bear or Home on the Range, and they were positive that if anything could revive interest in 2D, it was a princess movie, their old workhorse that always was a success. That Tiana is the lowest grossing of the post Little Mermaid Princesses was just the first dig into the ground, Tangled breaking bank the same time a year later just finished it off by proving people still wanted Princesses, they just apparently didn't want 2D.
