It's almost a year since Moana 2 was released - no release date for Moana 3 in sight. I wonder if a lot of time will pass in-universe between Moana 2 and Moana 3. Or if it's just gonna be "three weeks later"

The teaser trailer for the live-action Moana movie has dropped. I am... not looking forward to this cash-grab. There's no stopping it, folks will still see it in cinema, but I think I'll just pretend it doesn't exist?

More #Moana2 thoughts: the side characters Moni, Kele and Loto are fun! Cool designs, different enough to have a good dynamic with the other main characters, memorable enough, great voice actors... But simultaneously also only used as comic relief...
They could have had more value.

#moana2 thoughts: the music felt like the weakest link in this movie. The songs would have been ok for a show, but for a movie? No, it didn't work. The "I want" song was not an I want song at all. Though, let me state for the record: Te Vaka was on point, as was Mark Mancina. They got it right.

Moana 2 was released nearly a year ago, on November 27th. For a billion dollar movie, I still think parts of it were sloppy. Then again, for a show turned into a movie, it could have been much worse. The first two acts felt very episodic, but by act 3, that was forgotten because of the fun action.

If you like more adult and violent shows should give the show "Chief of War" a go. It's on Apple TV and takes place on the Hawaiian islands a few decades after they had their first run in with white settlers. Polynesian history drama at its best + The cast is wonderful!

I love winter and the cold! (Or at least I used to before I started developing reumatism, now it hurts :'( Sucks to be sick.)

<3 So cute! There are so many amazing artists that love Hooked Wayfinder on Bluesky, I'm glad to get to look at all your arts! (Even if I can't read your comics...)

I loved Moana 2 - not gonna lie - watched it so often already - but I'm glad it didn't get nominated for an oscar cause Disney can do BETTER. And they should do better. Get Lin-Manuel back on board for 3 and I think the overall quality of the movie is gonna be so much better.

Was fortunate to work on Moana 2. Helped with the marketing and sketched up a bunch of comps for their campaign.

Dropped a Moni icon pack on Tumblr. Moni is one of my fav new characters from Moana 2 (honestly the competition is hard cause all the new characters are great) - if you need an icon, feel free to snatch one up! :-) www.tumblr.com/cartoonjessi...

Disney dropped "Can I get a cheehoo" from Moana 2 on youtube - which is just an excuse for me to go over all the shots and have a little laugh at how fun the animations are.

Was so happy when my nephew asked me to see Moana 2 with him in cinemas. (I had already seen it twice at that point.) I took him to see the first movie when he was 5 - so to have this teen ask to go see the sequel with me again was heartwarming. He loved it! He's turning into a big fan of the Rock.

I live for this. I love how he lassoed the sun in the final version. Would have been fun seeing Moana do some literal heavylifting during this scene.

When Maui pulls a frigging island out of the ocean in Moana 2 - I will be honest, I felt very very weak.

When your bestie is both happy to see you and terrified you're walking to your death. (And is being quite right about it too...) Moana 2 is at its best when Moana and Maui are reunited. Can't wait for Moana 3! (Thanksgiving 2026, maybe?)

Total mood. I see Moana and Maui as demi ace, Moni obviously gay, Loyo lesbian and Kele possibly ace and/or aro
So we all agree the new crew in #Moana2 is super queer, right?
Moana (gives Ace vibes)
Maui (demigod, so obvs Pan)
Moni (Gay, creates fanart with him and Maui)
Loto (Lesbian, ship builder)
Kele (Gay, cares more about plants than people)
It just feels right.

Love this art. She's just checking she hasn't butt dialed anyone.
Modern!Moana & Maui. I'd like to think she also got demi-god status after restoring Te-Fiti and the both of them have been faffing about on adventures for centuries and are now just hanging with us normies.

I wish I could say I enjoyed Wicked more than I did. But I also know it's not due to the movie itself but due to the absolutely rude as f people in the cinema around me. In front of me was a couple and behind me were 3 teenagers that were chatting all throughout the movie. I got so frustrated.
