Disney's latest animation masterpiece, Ocean's Adventure, began drawing in mainland China on November 25. This time, the animation creators moved the princess series to Oceania, bringing Disney's first Oceania princess, Moana. Directors Ron Clements and John Max create a more feminist character, with Moana in their shots brave, optimistic, and adventurous.
In such a high-profile movie, the creators certainly won't miss the opportunity to implant fun Easter eggs, from Disney's local "Frozen" and "Super Marines" to the highly acclaimed "Mad Max 4", these movie-related details bring constant surprises to the audience. Let's take a look at some of the Easter eggs in Ocean's Edge that we've noticed or ignored!
Spoilers are provided below
<h3>If you have not seen the film, please code it first</h3>
<h3>1. Small halibut</h3>
When Maui sings "You're Welcome" and takes Moana into a flat two-dimensional world, a bunch of fish swim from the right side of the screen into the picture, and the blue and yellow halibut in "The Little Mermaid" is mixed in the school of fish. It was expected that Halibut would make a cameo appearance in Ocean's Edge, and the film's directors, Ron Clemonds and John Max, were also directors of the 1989 animated version of The Little Mermaid.
<h3>2. Reindeer Sven</h3>
Moana and Maui go to Lalotai, the monster country, to find the big crab Tamatoa to retrieve the magic hook that originally belonged to Maui, and several Easter eggs are buried in this section. The most obvious one, Maui got a hook and tried to transform, and turned into a lot of useless animals, and Sven the reindeer in Frozen is one of Maui's transformations.
<h3>3. Tribute to David Bowie</h3>
The song "Shiny" sung by Tammato the Great Crab is a song written by Lin-Manuel Miranda in tribute to David Bowie, and Clement also played David Bowie in the TV series "String Flight".
<h3>4. Monster Country</h3>
Many of the monsters in the Monster Nation are based on legends about Maui in the Polynesian islands. For example, the eight-eyed bat that pounced on Moana at the beginning, in the legend, it tried to steal Maui's wife, only to be killed by Maui. There is also a huge eel representing the god of eels, which is also Maui's defeated general.
<h3>5. Lobster sebastin</h3>
Another Easter egg about The Little Mermaid in Ocean's Edge is Lobster Sebastian, which appears in the end credits and is also in the underwater monster world. After being defeated by Moana and Maui, Tamato is trapped on all fours at the bottom of the sea and unable to turn over, complaining to himself that if he had a smaller figure, a red shell and a Caribbean accent, Moana would have saved him — the shape Tamato describes resembles Sebastian in The Little Mermaid.
<h3>6. The Heart of Tefiti</h3>
There are many spiral marks in Ocean's Adventures, such as the spiral on the Heart of Tefiti, which also appears on the sails of Moana's wooden ship. The octopus Ursula used in "The Little Mermaid" to preserve the voice of the Little Mermaid Ariel is also a spiral-patterned Nautilus necklace. The Heart of Tefiti acts similarly to the Nautilus necklace in Ocean's Edge, with Moana returning the Heart of Tefiti ending the disaster, while in The Little Mermaid, Ariel takes back the voice from the Nautilus to puncture Ursula's plot.
<h3>7. Statue of Maui</h3>
Trapped in a cave, Moana finds a statue of Maui, whose pose resembles the statue of the prince in Ariel's house in The Little Mermaid. Moana had to step on the head of the stone statue in order to escape, and the stone statue's nose was kicked and flew. The head of the prince sculpture in The Little Mermaid was also knocked off. There is a similar plot in Aladdin, in which a sculptor watches Aladdin and the princess flying in the night sky on a magic carpet and knocking off the nose of the large sculpture at hand.
<h3>8. The flower on the head of little Moana</h3>
The young Moana wears a small pink flower on her head, much like the flower on Ariel's head in The Little Mermaid.
<h3>9. Hercules Hercules</h3>
Ron Clements and John Max also collaborated on the cartoon Hercules, about Hercules, the son of Zeus, who was abandoned by his father's original wife at birth and later adopted by humans with infinite divine powers. Maui in Ocean's Edge happens to be the opposite of Hercules, who was born in the mortal world, abandoned by his parents, and later given the power by the gods to evolve into a demigod. There is also a particularly interesting coincidence between the two films, when Dawn Johnson, who voiced Maui, played Heratlers in Son of Zeus.
<h3>10、Tweeting</h3>
When Maui took the thumb and signed moana's oar, he teased, "Sign with a bird, it's called Tweeting." "The equivalent of a modern human tweet.
<h3>11. "The Fantasy Drift of the Young Pi"</h3>
When Moana wanted to give up on the sea, Grandma's avatar, the stingray, swam from afar with light. This scene recreates one of the most beautiful shots in "The Fantasy Drifting of the Young Pi", where the sea surface is illuminated by countless glowing jellyfish, and if you look down, you can see the luminous body in the shape of a stingray on the seabed.
<h3>12, seawater is alien? </h3>
The ocean that helps Moana in the film always sticks out a solid liquid in the shape of a smooth tentacle, the same image as the alien liquid in James Cameron's 1989 science fiction film The Abyss.
<h3>13. Snow Treasure</h3>
Snowball in Frozen appears in Ocean's Edge in a very sad way. Snow treasure has always been full of longing for the warm tropics, and in "Frozen", he also fantasized that he could brave the sun and relax on the seashore. But when it came to Ocean's Edge, things didn't go according to Xuebao's imagination. Before leaving the island, Moana stuffed a lot of coconuts and fruits in her luggage, and at the top of the package was a lone carrot, which was the one that made Xuebao's nose, and the rest of his body had long since melted away.
<h3>14. Great White</h3>
Moana and Maui are attacked by the pirate Kakamora, and when Moana jumps on the pirate ship to single out the coconut villain, the classic expression of baymax in The Super Marines appears in The Super Marines.
<h3>15. The director made a friendly cameo</h3>
Directors Ron Clements and John Max also have a quirk of silently adding characters created in their own works. If you are familiar with their looks, you can find them in "Aladdin", "The Princess and the Frog", "Hercules", and the picture on the left is their cameo in "Aladdin". This little fetish is no exception in Ocean's Edge. This Easter egg is buried very hidden, and there are now two possibilities for the specific location. One is that at the beginning of the film, when Moana and her clan sing "Where You Are", the figures of the two directors are hidden on the bark cloth hung by the villagers. Another theory is that they were two of the Kacamora pirates, with two coconuts that looked similar to theirs. In the end, everyone is welcome to express their opinions in the comments.
<h3>16. "Mad Max"</h3>
When Kakamora attacks Moana, a series of actions such as blowing trumpets, beating drums, and putting iron hooks are completed in one go, which gives people a sense of déjà vu. That's right, the directors of Ocean's Edge emulated George Miller's Mad Max 4: Fury Road road chase scene in this attack, and they also mentioned in an interview before the release that they would pay tribute to George Miller in the film.
<h3>17. Mickey Mouse's head</h3>
There are a lot of round objects in Ocean's Edge, and there are a lot of hidden Mickey Mouse heads in it. Three pearls on the back of the large crab Tamato and the treasure pose in the shape of Mickey Mouse, and the arrangement of the three drums on the Pirate Ship of Camamora is also reminiscent of Mickey Mouse.
<h3>18, sloth lightning</h3>
The hottest animal in Zootopia, Sloth Lightning, becomes a monster in the monster country of La Rotaili. Moana, alone in LaRotai, was looking for Maui when she saw a huge monster with a fluorescent mask coming towards her, with four claws on each hand, exactly like the hand of lightning. The mask monster did not move fast enough, and before he reached Moana, he tragically became the dish of other monsters.
<h3>19, Just woke up Anna</h3>
When Moana wakes up on Maui's island after capsizing, her hair is messy much like Anna in Frozen.
<h3>20. The Princess and her followers</h3>
Maui teases Moana on the boat for being a princess, and Moana corrects him to say that she is the chief's daughter. But Maui looked at her and said, "You're wearing a skirt and you have a pet by your side, so you're definitely a princess." This is the director's self-deprecation of Disney's Princess series: Anna and Snow Treasure in Frozen, Le Pei and Kasper in "Trolls", Mulan and Mushu Dragon in Mulan, etc. are innocently lying guns. In addition, Maui had said to Moana worriedly, "You won't be singing again, will you?" ", is also a joke about Disney animation song and dance scenes.
<h3>21. "Finding Nemo" Turtle Father and Son</h3>
The little turtle moana saved when she was a child is the same as marlin and Nemo's friend Squirt in "Finding Nemo", and later when Moana comes to the sea, she also sees a big turtle in the transparent water, like Squirt's father, Rush.
<h3>22. Stevie</h3>
Moana's scene of escorting a baby turtle with a leaf pays homage to the painting of Stevens protecting the mother and child of the turtle when the subtitles of "Interstellar Baby" are published.
<h3>23. Humble</h3>
In the movie, an old man sees that the rooster is too stupid and jokes with Moana about when he can cook it and eat it. This line is actually the voice of the director, who can't think of how to add the character to the story, so they originally decided to delete its role. What's even more funny is that they later solved the problem of being embarrassed, and they also ate a special meal of fried chicken to celebrate...
<h3>24. The Sunflower in "Trolls"</h3>
After Moana returned the Heart of Tefiti, both Tefiti Island and her home island came back to life. The camera sweeps through the various plants on the island, and there is a flower that is very similar to the sunflower in "The Trolls".
<h3>25. Invincible Destruction King</h3>
Towards the end of the credits, a picture of the invincible destruction of King Ralph appears in the picture. Disney will not produce new animation works in 2017, and plans to prepare for the outbreak in 2018. Released on March 9, 2018, Invincible Destruction King 2 is Disney's next film after Ocean's Edge.
