Moana	comment	Moana (renamed Vaiana in Europenote except the UK, Ireland and Turkey, where the movie retains the original American title, and Italy, where the movie is called Oceania to avoid confusion with porn actress Moana Pozzi and some Asian countries due to trademark issues with a cosmetics brand called Moana) is the 56th movie in the Disney Animated Canon, set in the South Pacific and drawing inspiration from the region's mythology, history, and culture.Moana Waialiki lives on the beautiful island of Motunui, where she is set to become the next chief of her tribe. But when the crops start failing and fish flee the inshore waters, Moana believes that the island's troubles are linked to the legend of an encroaching "darkness" created when the demigod Maui stole the heart of the benevolent creator goddess Te Fiti.Recognising her compassion and wanderlust, the ocean itself entrusts Moana with the lost heart of Te Fiti. Defying the wishes of her protective father, Moana embarks on an adventure across the turbulent and monster-filled seas to track down Maui and force him to return the heart of Te Fiti before the darkness swallows all life on the ocean.It was a highly-anticipated film, originally to be done in the Paperman style of animation before it was changed to a more conventional form of CGI. It features Moana as the first Pacific Islander Disney Princessnote "chief's daughter", strictly speaking (and second Pacific Islander protagonist after Lilo Pelekai) and the fifth non-European one.The cast includes Dwayne Johnson as Maui, newcomer Auli'i Cravalho as Moana, Temuera Morrison as Moana's father, Tui Waialiki, Nicole Scherzinger as Moana's mother, Sina Waialiki, Rachel House as Gramma Tala, Jemaine Clement as Tamatoa, a giant crab monster, and Alan Tudyk as the chicken Heihei. It reunites the directing power duo of Ron Clements and John Musker, the men behind The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules, Treasure Planet and The Princess and the Frog. The film features seven original songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Opetaia Foa'i, and the score is written by Brother Bear and Tarzan composer Mark Mancina.The film was released on November 23, 2016, preceded by the short Inner Workings.The first teaser trailer is here, a teaser that aired during the Olympics is here, an international trailer is here, and the official trailer is here.In October 2016, Disney announced that the film will be the first motion picture to be fully dubbed in the Tahitian language, marking the second time Disney released a special dubbing dedicated to the culture which inspired the film.note The first being the Zulu dub of The Lion King. This led to subsequent special dubbings in Maori and Hawaiian often with the original voice actors reprising their roles in their native languages.During Disney's Investor Day on December 10, 2020, it was revealed that an animated series (which shared the movie's name and would dive deeper into the Pacific Islands' mythology) based on the film would be released on Disney+. As of 2024, the series has been retooled into a theatrical sequel. The sequel, Moana 2, is currently scheduled to premiere on November 27, 2024.A live action re-imagining was announced in April 2023, with Johnson reprising his role from the original film.

Moana / int_109bc3e	comment	Eat the Dog: An elderly denizen of Motunui asks if he can cook Heihei, as the chicken appears to be too stupid to be of any other use. Moana declines, insisting that Heihei has some hidden talent. Later, when Maui steals Moana's canoe, the demigod takes Heihei too as a "boat snack." He spends most of the voyage trying to fatten the rooster up, to no avail. It's all clearly Played for Laughs with bonus points in that the elderly villager is voiced by Alan Tudyk who also voices Heihei.

In his Villain Song, Tamatoa gives the audience an Aside Glance and tells them to look up what a decapod is. He also pauses to specify he'll sing his boasts, implicitly because it's time for the Villain Song. Maui, at one point, preemptively admonishes Moana that if she launches into a Disney Princess song, he'll puke. In The Stinger, Tamatoa, still left laying helplessly on his back, addresses the audience directly and complains that they would've sympathized with him more if he was a Jamaican crab named Sebastian.

Moana / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag The last patch in the end credits is a drawing of Wreck-It Ralph, a nod and a tip of the hat to the fact that the film's sequel is the next one in the Disney Animated Canon. If you look closely you'll see that one of the Kakamora has Baymax's face. Blink and you'll miss it: one of the treasures on Tamatoa's back◊ is a certain oil lamp. One of the village carpet/blankets is a recolored adaptation of Aladdin's magic carpet. When toddler Moana holds a leaf over the baby turtle to help it get to the sea safely it is a reference to Stitch doing the same in Lilo & Stitch and the baby turtle is Squirt, complete with his shell flower pattern. The entire scene with Tamatoa has a light at the top of the cave, and the cave resembles Ariel's Grotto from The Little Mermaid (1989). The Stinger also has Tamatoa comment that the audience would care about him more if he was a crab with a Jamaican accent named Sebastian. While attempting to use his shapeshifting powers, Maui accidentally turns into Sven for a split second. When Tui accidentally releases some mats that show monsters, one of them includes Marshmallow. While life is returning to the island there's a blink and you'll miss it shot of a youth restoring flower blooming. According to the creators, Olaf from Frozen appears in some form in the movie. This amounts to His carrot nose and one of his arms being among the items Moana takes with her, seen in the reprise of "How Far I'll Go." During Maui's "You're Welcome" number, after the Art Shift, a bunch of fish can be seen swimming up. One of them is Flounder.

Furthermore, the legend says that Maui stole the heart so he could have the power of creation to himself, when the truth is that he wanted to help the humans by giving them that power.

In an interesting turn of events, she finally leaves because the spirit of the ocean reveals itself to her again and she realizes the only way she can save her people is to undertake the quest to restore the heart of Te Fiti. A teenage girl who has, at best, puttered around in a sheltered lagoon, takes a boat and boldly heads out into the open ocean on an epic quest determined that nothing will stop her... and promptly has her boat smashed apart by the real power of the ocean and would have likely drowned had the ocean not dumped her back on the shore.

However, it is peppered with moments of dark comedy. Gramma Tala telling a story about how the spreading darkness will soon catch them all in the jaws of INESCAPABLE DEATH to a bunch of clearly terrified children, while toddler Moana listens with delight. Tui tries to reassure and calm the children but accidentally knocks down a set of drapes that block out the sunlight and surround them with drawings of the monsters, terrifying the children even more. Moana asks Maui why the door to Lalotai won't open, and he tells her it requires a human sacrifice, before admitting he was just messing with her. Maui's response when Moana falls into the Realm of Monsters: Tamatoa casually admits at one point that he ate his own grandmother, "and it took a week because she was absolutely humongous." Part of Tamatoa's Villain Song includes mocking Maui for the fact that his parents literally threw him into the sea to drown when he was a baby, but, well...it's still in song form. When Maui traps Moana in a cave in order to steal her boat, he treats Mini-Maui's concern as a joke despite that fact that Moana, as a mortal, would quickly die from lack of food or water had she not been able to escape on her own.

This line from Tui to Moana — "It suits you." A meta example: The last time Disney Animation Studios had two of its films nominated for "Best Animated Feature" in the same year was back in 2002 with Lilo & Stitch and Treasure Planet. In 2016, almost 15 years later, they had Moana and Zootopia. Both times, Disney had a film in the running with a Polynesian protagonist and a strong Polynesian influence.

At the same time, the ocean starts to float the shell away forcing Moana to choose between the shell or saving the turtle. When Moana's tender-hearted compassion wins out and she guides the turtle safely to the water, that's when the ocean fully reveals itself to her and presents her with the Heart of Te Fiti.

Many wanted the heart for themselves, but it wasn't until Maui came along that anyone actually succeeded. As for why he stole it, he was hoping to give it to man so that they'll use the heart's power and hail Maui as a hero. It all eventually failed, and the heart never reached man. If someone steals the Heart of Te Fiti, she turns into a lava monster named Te Ka, bent on destroying as much as she can until she gets the heart back. Maui eventually learns from his mistake, and together with Moana, they give her the heart back.

Heihei's introduction to the audience has a villager questioning his basic intelligence as he tries to eat a rock and wonders what to do with him. His being Too Dumb to Live is his defining character trait. Maui's song, "You're Welcome" cements how much of an entertaining egomaniac he is.

Moana / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: Within the first couple of moments, note that once Maui stole the heart of Te Fiti, it was mentioned that she gave birth to a new darkness. The story implies that Te KÄ� is a separate entity from Te Fiti, but the plot twist is that Te Fiti and Te KÄ� are one and the same. The Kakamora, Tamatoa, and several of the monsters of Lalotai are seen depicted on the tapestries that Tui accidentally knocks loose following Tala's story at the beginning of the movie. Also during the story, when Tala explained that The Chosen One would find Maui and restore Te Fiti's heart, the story didn't specify who would restore her heart. Moana assumed it had to be Maui, but it was she who had to do it, while Maui had to guide her. Tui sings the following lines to Moana during "Where You Are", hinting at the tragedy that led him to stop trying to leave the island. During Maui's "You're Welcome" song, one of the tattoos seen (but not animated) depicts him fighting a giant crab. Later on, he casually admits that he and Tamatoa (a Giant Enemy Crab) never got along due to Maui ripping one of Tamatoa's legs off. Grandmother Tala, gently encouraging Moana to follow the call to the sea tells her, "There is no place you can go that I will not be with you," implying she knows her time of death is near. A rare comical example. Heihei is shown to think rocks are food. Sure enough, he eats the heart later on. Baby Moana not only helps a baby turtle get to the ocean for survival, but she protects and guides it to the ocean, having the turtle make the journey to the ocean by itself. And throughout her journey, Moana is given help and guidance from the ocean and later Maui, but they both have Moana do things for herself so she can learn to better survive out in the ocean. In the "You're Welcome" song, when Maui says the line, "'Cause Maui can do anything but float." It's a subtle dig at the fact his parents threw him into the ocean when he was born, in an attempt to get rid of him. At one point early on, we see Tala by the ocean dancing with some manta rays. She comments that she wants to come back as a manta ray when she dies. And that is exactly the form her spirit takes when she does pass away. Maui makes a cutting point to Moana when detailing the arduous series of steps needed to restore the Heart of Te Fiti: "Have you ever defeated a giant lava monster?" Fast-forward to the climax...

Moana / int_9e9203e1	comment	Dramatically Missing the Point: Much of Moana's self-doubt on her quest stems from her growing feeling that she doesn't have the skills she thinks are necessary to accomplish her quest like sailing, wayfinding, or fighting monsters and ends up wondering why the ocean chose her, believing that it made a mistake. In the end, Moana was focused on the wrong qualities as it was her strong compassion and empathy that enabled her to reach past Te KÄ�'s rage and remind her of Te Fiti, her true self. These are the qualities the Ocean saw in Moana as a toddler when she helped the baby sea turtle get safely to the sea.

Chief Tui points out that the ancient chiefs established the rule of not going beyond the reef and Tui personally experienced tragedy when he disobeyed that rule and went out into the open ocean with his friend. He wants to take the issue up with the council for further discussion. Moana believes that expanding the fishing beyond the reef is a viable solution after having learned that all other options have been explored and that it seems like there simply aren't any fish remaining in the lagoon to be caught. Even though it's been traditionally forbidden, she feels it's become necessary due to a situation the ancient chiefs never considered. However, anywhere they choose to fish would eventually become barren and the only lasting solution was to restore the Heart of Te Fiti.

Moana / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Maui uses Heihei's beak to sign Moana's oar. He claims "when you use a bird to write with, it's called 'tweeting'." Dwayne Johnson tweeted that Maui's character design was based on his maternal grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia. The Kakamora and their ships and drums are a deliberate hailing to Immortan Joe's armada and the Doof Wagon/Doof Warrior from Mad Max: Fury Road. The score in this scene is also intentionally evocative of Junkie XL's work on Fury Road, even going so far as to incorporate a snippet of the melody from Fury Road's "Brothers in Arms".

They do let her dance with her grandmother by the waves when she needs some space. Tui forbids Moana from going past the reef to stop the incoming plague because not only is it dangerous — and he can speak from experience— but it seems selfish from his point of view since Moana has spent her whole life trying to sail against his wishes. Sina, however, realizes that Moana is going to go anyway out of a sense of duty to save Monotui, helps her pack supplies, and silently bids farewell to her.

No longer able to do it himself, he has no choice but to teach Moana how to sail and wayfind.

In the end she returns home to a tearful reunion with her parents complete with a big tight hug. Her father, who had been very restrictive of her desire to sail the ocean expresses his love and appreciation of her. It is a downplayed example in that after returning home Moana doesn't settle down but instead rekindles the voyager spirit in her people and they reclaim their ancient art of wayfinding and return to exploring the sea.

In the beginning act of the film, Maui is constantly trying to ditch Moana by throwing her off the canoe... only for the Ocean to promptly put her back. When he attempts to swim off himself, the Ocean puts him back, too. Moana's hair flying into her face, especially when she whips it around dramatically. Heihei's stupidity. The fact that Maui has to show him how to eat and how he keeps swallowing non-edible items as well.

Moana / int_ffad4e9f	type	Shown Their Work
Moana / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: Disney made sure to do a lot of research, making it into a real meta-Polynesia and avoiding setting off cultural taboos. For instance... The word Taboo itself is borrowed from Tongan "Ta bu". The Maori variant occurs in the movie's dialog and can be seen in the DVD's subtitles. Moana's vision of her ancestors voyaging was originally going have them in Papua headdresses and face paint◊, but the Oceanic Trustnote a team of Polynesian scholars formed by Disney to advise them on the film nixed it because such ceremonial garb would be massively impractical out at sea. Another bit cut from the film was Moana smashing a coconut in frustration, which would've come off as both sacrilegious and a waste of valuable food (worse than, say, burning a flag and trashing a freshly roasted turkey at the same time.) One man from the village is shown getting his first tattoo, which is being done with traditional Polynesian implements: ink, a fishbone needle, and a flat mallet. Maui was originally story-boarded as bald like his voice actor. After learning this would be inappropriate for his character, because Polynesian mythos equates long hair with power, Disney rose to the challenge and advanced the art of technical animation to give him long curly hair. During "We Know The Way", the chief is shown navigating with the stars at one point, holding his hand up against a cluster of stars, as does his descendant Moana. The constellation in question is Orion, and it (the belt and dagger) was indeed used by Polynesian voyagers to navigate. Moana is also shown following Maui's fish hook (Manaiakalani). While Te KÄ� and Te Fiti are an amalgamation of Polynesian myths, that Te KÄ� is a very, VERY angry creation Goddess encompassing both the destructive nature of volcanic earth and the islands full of life that it brings is more-or-less Pele, the Hawaiian lava Goddess who was known for both her enormous temper and compassion, as well as also being able to create earth/the islands and destroy with lava. Pele is also often a victim of Maui's shenanigans causing her to lash out, and Te KÄ� being Te Fiti lashing out in a fit of rage after Maui goes too far is accurate.

However, when the time comes, it's actually Heihei the Too Dumb to Live chicken who unwittingly stows away on Moana's boat, while Pua is left behind on the island. A Downplayed example in that the creators were not intentionally trying to mislead the audience. The original story was for Pua to go with Moana, but the creators felt he added too much emotional support and Heihei was substituted.
