Cinderella. Have a seen added to the Prince where we get to know his character more and his personality. After the So this is love ? Song, have a scene where Charming and Cinders have a chat. Sorry Charming but your just the most shallow Disney Prince around. lol

Dumbo. Remove the Pink Elephant Parade crazy LSD scene and replace it with what they originally planned to do and explain why Elephants are so scared of mouses. It makes more sense than whatever occurs. Whatever it is.

Sleeping Beauty. Same thing as Cinderella expect the Princess than the Prince. Add a scene with Aurora giving us more time to know her character and who she is and what she's like.

Little Mermaid. I'll make the ending before the wedding with Eric a bit longer, to show that Ariel is somewhat guilty of what she has done and the trouble that she has caused. Her sitting the rock, watching Eric on the beach shore with a sad and troubled face and Trition watching her in sadness, then back to Ariel watching Eric with a face that shows that she admits that she made a huge mistake. Then Trition saying " How much I'm going to miss her "/ Wedding with Eric./ Ending.

Hunchback of Notre Dame. Esmeralda goes with Quasi. It's a cliche complaint, but Quasimoto deserved her more than Sun God Knight.

Hercules. Add in a proper villain song for Hades instead of the Gospel Truth and remove Gospel truth part 2 it's pointless, we could see Herc's parents sadness of loosing him in so much better ways like Rapunzel's parents in Tangled.

Mulan. Mulan and Shang don't become a couple at the end. It felt so sudden and so forced. Mulan's ending would of been so great if it showed that you don't always need a man to make your life better and complete. The Father's love of seeing his daughter alive and safe was just enough.

Lion King:
1. Keep "Warthog Rhasphsopy" instead of Hakuna Matata.
2. Keep the "Scar Wants Nala as His Queen" scene. It gives the two major character development, plus a much better reason why Nala left.
3. Have Mufasa sing. Like "He Lives in You".

Princess and the Frog:

1. Have Louis alligator/human. That would be cool to have Facilier and Louis to have a showdown.
2. DON'T KILL OFF RAY :x
3. Have Charlotte dance with Travis instead of Naveen's brother.
4. Have Evangeline be A REAL FIREFLY
5. Remove the refrences to the Frog Prince

Tangled:

1. Have the parents talk.
2. A better haircut :roll:
3. Keep the Fortune Teller scene
4. Handdrawn
5. The old "Flynn Rider" design.
6. REMOVE THE SMOULDER :roll:
7. Kristin Chenoweth as Rapunzel :D
8. CHANGE OF TITLE

Wreck-It-Ralph:

Nothing except MAJOR SPOILERS: I wish we had more development between Vanellope and King Candy. It was really odd because the antagonist in past Disney movies ALWAYS talks to the enermy. They interacted very little except of course, the Turbo part. I expected as soon as we see her in the Fungeon, King Candy would come and taunt her, and was let down when Ralph and Felix came to the rescue :/

Oh, and the removal of Shut and Drive, and have Mario, Sora, and Link to appear.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. I thought they made the right choice by replacing "Warthog Rhapshody" with "Hakuna Matata". The former was horrible, in my opinion.

3. Have Mufasa sing. Like "He Lives in You".
Really? Why? I'm not trying to bash you, I'm just curious why you would like him to sing?

@disneyprincess11: Who's Travis? :? Louis actually was a human in the early stages. I have no idea why they changed that for the final product.

Um... Isn't it already like that? She wasn't exactly dancing with joy on top of that rock. And besides, Ariel already admitted she made a mistake when she said 'Daddy, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I didn't know--' before being cut-off by Triton trying to destroy her contract with Ursula.

And why would that actually have been any more necessary? The whole point of them being scared of mice just seems like it was there for laughs, and it may have been a common belief back then that didnt need explaining.

At any rate, regardless, my response to cutting the Pink Elephants is






BLASPHEMY!

Okay, I realize that I've probably should have mentioned Ariel's positive traits. I'm not saying that Ariel is a genuienly detestable character who's completely heartless. She does avenge her father at the end. However, I don't think her character isn't much besides her obsession.
Who's Travis?
Travis is the guy who's talking to Charlotte at the beginning of the party at the LaBouffs. When she's anxiously waiting for Prince Naveen to arrive and right before she's wishing to the evening star for Naveen to arrive.
Louis actually was a human in the early stages. I have no idea why they changed that for the final product.
I remember the directors talking about it on the audio commentary, but I don't remember why they changed him. Do you have the dvd/blu ray?

Oh, NP. It's b/c Mufasa is very important, so I'm surprise that he didn't sing. Yes, the character is serious, but if he did a serious song, that would work

I also wish Mufasa sang. Powhatan sang in Pocahontas and I liked it. I'm glad Mufasa sings in Lion King on Broadway, his "They Live in You" is one of my favorite songs of the show.

Just so you know, So This is Love is supposed to be a fantasy sequence that can be a metaphor for what they actually did, which was either fall in love while actually singing, which would be weird, they fall in love in silence, or they are chatting.

It's what Dumbo sees when he's drunk! He's hallucinating!

The Pink Elephants On Parade sequence is considered a bona fide masterpiece.

I know, I know !! But some people still think that Ariel was this horrible, selfish girl when she wasn't and people like the Nol Chick believe that she didn't learn her lesson and believe that she really feel gulity at all.

About the Pink Elephants no. I don't care what other's think and if people believe that it's a masterpiece. It scares the crap out of me and anything would be better than seeing a creepy three-faced demon eyed solider like elephant coming right at you.

Love it all you want, even with your most biggest desire ! I personally would rather see it gone forever and ever and ever and never see those creepy demon like elephants again. Bye, bye aidos ! Goodbye !

Agreed.

Nuh-uh. The one instance of Timothy scaring the female elephants was a crucial plot point, where he would stick up for Dumbo in Mrs. Jumbo's absence. Anything beyond that would've devolved into a cartoon cliche.

Me too for the title change. I can see it now: "Rapunzel gets her name back as Disney returns to its TRUE tradition." Boy how I miss her name very much. Use Tangled as a wedding reference (Just Tangled), or even better: "Prepare to be TANGLED, for adventure (or the previous is okay)."

And as for "Wreck-It Ralph," add the processing system (like downloading for example from 0%-100%) between Ralph held custody at King Candy's kingdom, and King Candy heading to the Code Chamber to retrieve Ralph's medal. So that it can cover the plot hole.

Besides, ultimately he was better off in the ship with her than outside by himself with the shark.
Not really. The shark entered the ship as well, so they were in worse dangers inside the ship.

They didn't have the benefit of hindsight. It would seem more logical vfor them to be safer in the ship than in the open water.

Not to mention that they didn't know about the shark's presence.

Yet they weren't. In fact, they were even in bigger danger inside the ship.

Snow White

-Have more scenes of the Queen in her regular form.
-Have a few scenes with the Prince looking for Snow White to keep him more active in the plot.
-Give the Queen a line saying that the poison apple is so beautiful and tasty looking nobody can resist it so Snow White doesn't look as ditzy.
-Have a scene showing what happens to the Huntsman.

Cinderella

-Give more screen time to Cinderella and less to the mice and Lucifer.
-Make the Prince be the one who goes out to look for the girl.
-Keep the song "The Dress My Mother Wore."
-Have Cindy try to break down her bedroom door after she is locked in.

Peter Pan

-Make Peter more likeable and Hook more menacing.

Sleeping Beauty

-Give Aurora more screen time.
-Make the final fight between Phillip and Maleficent longer.
-More scenes of Maleficent and the fairies together.

The Little Mermaid

-Have Ariel more involved in the final showdown.
-Also make it longer like maybe have Ursula use her magic to awakening dead sailors as her minions and fight Eric and Ariel.
- I liked the original idea of Ariel not getting her voice back to the very end and Eric realizing on his own Ariel was the one who saved him.
-Have a small moment of Ariel saying "I'm sorry" to Triton and have her sing the Part of That World reprise as she goes up to him on the beach.

Aladdin
- Keep Aladdin's mother and the song Proud of Your Boy.
-Also keep his friends.
-Make Jasmine more consistent of a character.


The Lion King

-Have another scene during Scar's rule and show Nala leaving.

Hunchback

-Tone the gargoyles down a bit and give them a better so.
- Also I would have had the scene that they had in the musical with Esmeralda singing 'Someday" as she was being led to being burned at the stake.
-Have Esmeralda die at the the end.

Hercules

-GIVE HADES A VILLAIN SONG!

Mulan

-Have a few more battle scenes.

The Emperor's New Groove

-Make it more about Yzma and Kronk. Keep her original plot line about wanting to destroy the sun and her song Snuff Out the Light along with her role as trying to kill Kuzco.

Princess and the Frog

-Keep the Louis/Human/Facilier subplot.
-Give Facilier more screen time and development and clearer motives. Have him be the reason for Tiana's fathers death as someone mentioned earlier.
-Cut Lawrence.
-Give Charlotte a guy at the end.

Tangled
-Call it Rapunzel
-Change the prologue with a storybook opening and an omniscient narrator.
-Keep bear Bastian.
-Make Gothel a witch and the flower is from her garden and give her more conflicting scenes with her emotions about Rapunzel.
-Change the ending so it doesn't feel as rushed like maybe have Gothel and BASTIAN fight a bit before she stabs him. And have Rapunzel realize she is the lost princess in a more realistic way I like the idea off the flower birthmark.
