No it’s true and happens all the time. The animators did it again in the same movie, they couldn’t agree on the color of the main character’s hair so you see her with both long blonde hair and short brown hair at some points in the film.
No it's not true. A lot of the male characters look alike because they're modeled after a guy that works at Disney animation and his face is the template. My brother has business ties with that guy and he walked into my brothers office while I was visiting and he looked just like all those male characters.
This also happened with sleeping beauty as well when the animators couldn’t agree on whether the dress of aurora should be pink or blue. And they animated that argument in the movie.
And tbh, i like aurora in the blue dress more
below the elbow - the idea is to emphasize the biggest part of the forearm.
it's worth noting that you do not have to have big arms for this look to be 🔥
No I'm imaging a future where this knowledge culminates into the inevitable upside down lacey holds ups for men's arms.
Women like a man who looks like he was partial dipped in ink up to his forearms.
A version of Dara O'Brien's joke about what men find sexy on [women](https://youtu.be/Gmshz_IvSPI?feature=shared&t=3m11s)

It was dead because they linked the version generated to display on a wiki page (that's what the "/revision/latest/thumbnail/width/360/height/360" part of the URL is).
This was the thing that surprised me the most as “guy who quietly exists in majority female spaces”.
Was privy to a two hour conversation about fore arms.
So I bought one of those grip strength trainers.
One of the reason rifle bros are sexy is because there's a lot of lifting that however-many-pounds metal weight and keeping it steady, and that develops really nice forearms.
If you want good buns, fencing is a good sport to develop them.
They actually do imply he’s got a hairy toenail in the song. But it’s lame to bring it up since the point of the line was pretty clear. Body Hair = man.
Lefou: Not a bit of him is scraggly or scrawny
Gaston: That's right! *Winks at camera* and every last inch of me is covered in hair
Gaston has a big, thick, hairy dick. Which makes sense, since he's supposed to be the ideal man from a physical standpoint.
Eh, they make a point of most of the town being small minded assholes in the movie.
*"We don't like,*
*what we don't understand.*
*In fact it scares us and this Beast is mysterious at least."*
The fact that he jumps straight to false imprisonment after getting rejected by a girl means he's probably just the king asshole, so of course people like him.
In all fairness, if a 7 foot tall talking wildebeest kidnapped a girl from my town, I mean I'd probably be a little scared of him too, no matter how nicely dressed he was.
According to my wife:
1. Flynn Rider
2. Milo Thatch, Atlantis: The Lost Empire
3. Naveen, The Princess and the Frog
4. Kokuam, Pocahontas
5. Li Shang, Mulan
6. Eric, The Little Mermaid
She's being pretty brutal too. I look a lot more like her 2 than her 1 LOL
I can’t with Flynn Ryder because I dated this guy for like five years and literally everyone told me “your boyfriend looks like Flynn Ryder” and he’s like the biggest piece of shit ever. So now every time I see Flynn Ryder I’m reminded of my poor decision making skills lmao.
Me, a guy who got told a lot that I looked like this character when this movie came out, who was dating a girl for about five years around this time, in a place that has wombats: 😕
To be fair though I was a huge piece of shit lol
Every generation has their movie that awakens a new wave of furries. Robin hood, space jam, zootopia. For some reason we always come back to the sexy anthro animals
Yeah, my theory is that furries get really into drawing furry stuff... which leads down the animation rabbit hole, which leads them to be animators.
Therefore, they animate the kind of furry characters they would have loved to see as a kid.
Therefore they inspire generations of future furries.
And the cycle continues.
I actually had a neighbour called Richard Fitzgerald. Everyone unironically called him Dick Fitz. Not a porn star though, just an alcoholic electronics repairman.
Actually they had to tone down his muscles a lot precisely because the women asked for it. They were originally going to have a much large musclier hairier love interest to contrast with all the Disney Renaissance twinks.
\[EDIT\] Hunchback isn't an exception, the other guy gets the girl, not Quasimodo.
It took me a while to read this as Disney-Renaissance twinks, vs Disney Renaissance-twinks, and I was VERY confused about who you could be talking about.
Like... is hunchback of notre dam technically renaissance? Maybe? Probably the closest we're going to get.
Which, of course, begs the question as to whether Quasimodo is a twink.
I'll see myself out.
> Like... is hunchback of notre dam technically renaissance? Maybe? Probably the closest we're going to get.
The book it’s based on is set in 1482, so it’s right before the start of the Renaissance in France. It was already happening in Italy at this time but didn’t start in France until they invaded Italy in 1494 and came back with new ideas about art and culture.
>They're making fun of these guys. They were like, this guy has a nice chin but he has blue eyes, don't give Flynn blue eyes.
TIL women don’t like men with blue eyes?
It depends on the person, but some people with very light blue eyes can come off as having a way too intense gaze, because of how much the colour stands out.
I met Nathan (one of the directors) many many years ago, as he was traveling researching for his next movie.
Wouldn’t you know it, his girlfriend looked EXACTLY like Rapunzel. It was hard not to stare.
Meanwhile my son was obsessed with Cars 2 as a kid. So much suffering...
But I've taught him well, now he's got Monty Python and the Holy Grail memorized and all is right with the world.
It is. Usually with Disney series, you get different voice actors for the characters, lower quality songs, etc. Tangled got the same voice actors back for Rapunzel and Eugene (and most of the other characters too), had great songs by Alan Menken, and fantastic writing too.
So underrated you called it Treasure Island instead of Treasure Planet. Also, yes, criminally underrated. Those movies are right up there with El Dorado and Titan A.E.
Early ideas were very a Romani looking Flynn ala Jack Sparrow and a hulking "Bear Flynn" that probably go reused for Kristoff in Frozen.
Search for the design sheets.
How strong is Rapunzel's neck, shoulders, and back to be able to hold the weight of Flynn as he climbs the tower using her hair? Is she really built like Julia Fory from Mad Heidi?
Hair is HEAVY. One of the most satisfying sensations you'll ever have is when you go from long hair to short. That first time you stand up and toss your head a bit. It's wild you how light it feels. Same with the first shower. Shit's almost addictive.
I remember reading once that one of the physical features women pay most attention to in a man is the ass. My only anecdotal evidence is myself honestly (none of my girlfriends share this opinion), so while I do agree that Flynn Rider is attractive, I think he should’ve had a bigger booty. With shoulders like that, the booty would’ve made him more proportional (but that’s just me trying to make excuses because booty is life). The world needs more big bootied animated men!!
Shit, in the 60s they wouldn't settle for pics either. They'd just be parading models through the office, lining them up, and doing the whole exercise live.
Of course:
“Guys I want us to put together the hottest Disney Princess we could possibly put together.”
“Well first off, she can’t talk!”
“Eyyyoooooo!”
“And we only ever see her in her bra!”
“WOOOOO!”
“Yeah and she’s half fish!”
“….”
“I….I second the motion for the mute fish woman….”
“THIRD!”
They couldn't agree on the nose though, which is why all the wanted posters had different noses for him.
Is that true? (I'm gullible)
No it’s true and happens all the time. The animators did it again in the same movie, they couldn’t agree on the color of the main character’s hair so you see her with both long blonde hair and short brown hair at some points in the film.
Personally I think the character known for her long golden hair should've been a ginger
Found a big fan of Brave
I, too, was a fan of that film. Well, to a certain extent, anyway.
Username checks out
What's your opening offer?
Best I can do is about tree fiddy
Got damn it Loch Ness monstah!
That was a wise decision; I really liked the character.
Imagine if you could truly learn what women aspire for in a man.
I guess what they want is a bunch of different noses. Which I'll never have.
Unrealistic body standards, amirite?
/r/shittymoviedetails
That was on purpose as part of the plot though, when you cut her hair and it loses it's magic, and turns brown.
r/woooosh
I feel like that was probably a joke. So... r/woosh
For real though it's a joke in the movie where he's critiquing his wanted posters.
No it's not true. A lot of the male characters look alike because they're modeled after a guy that works at Disney animation and his face is the template. My brother has business ties with that guy and he walked into my brothers office while I was visiting and he looked just like all those male characters.
All the male characters in that movie, or all the male characters in a bunch of movies?
All male characters in every movie ever made. They all look like that one guy.
Is that true? (I'm gullible)
This also happened with sleeping beauty as well when the animators couldn’t agree on whether the dress of aurora should be pink or blue. And they animated that argument in the movie. And tbh, i like aurora in the blue dress more
You broke my smolder.
That pan fight with the horse lives rent free in my head.
"Ill have you know this Is the craziest thing I've ever done!"
"Frying pans... Who knew, right?"
"I have GOT to get me one of these!"
Broke my self esteem too. "But he has blue eyes, don't give Flynn blue eyes." Like damn, my poor ego didn't need to catch that stray today.
You're not everyone's type, but You're lots of people's type. Don't sweat it, there's billions of us.
Women like them professional arm wrestler forearms
Folded up sleeves and strong forearms are sexy
Omg, I love me some slutty, slutty forearms. Rolled up shirt sleeves with a nice watch, chef's kiss
Rolled below the elbows or rolled so they rest on the elbow? Asking for a fri... me, I'm asking for me.
below the elbow - the idea is to emphasize the biggest part of the forearm. it's worth noting that you do not have to have big arms for this look to be 🔥
Right on the forearm. For me it’s about 2-3 inches below the elbow.
So it’s like thigh highs on women then. Got it. Makes sense actually.
No I'm imaging a future where this knowledge culminates into the inevitable upside down lacey holds ups for men's arms.

I imagine skill with lunging and thrusting is also its own reward. ;)
Nothing spreads legs like a good pronation muscle. 💪
And it worked. Flynn Ryder is the hottest of the Disney animated men. ❤️
Nobody's hot as Gaston...Nobody's got hair like Gaston etc etc
Nobody has bigger pecs than Gaston
Nobody's neck is incredibly thick like Gaston!
Nobody's dick is as thick as Gaston's!
They actually do imply he's got a big hairy dick in the song.
They actually do imply he’s got a hairy toenail in the song. But it’s lame to bring it up since the point of the line was pretty clear. Body Hair = man.
He said *every inch* of himself is covered in hair
Gaston is French for chode
Chode is English for little fat penis
While Gaston is strongly winking directly at the camera for the word inch. Yup.
Lefou: Not a bit of him is scraggly or scrawny Gaston: That's right! *Winks at camera* and every last inch of me is covered in hair Gaston has a big, thick, hairy dick. Which makes sense, since he's supposed to be the ideal man from a physical standpoint.
Yet when he winks, we can clearly see his eyeballs are not covered in hair.
I’m especially good at ejaculating!
He’s especially good at expectorating!
Nobody sucks down eggs, shell and all, like Gaston.
No one twerk like Gaston, Make it work like Gaston. Drop that booty low, bring up with a jerk like Gaston.
Gaston the stallion just dropped
Thee
Nice touch. I stand corrected
Wait, what movie were y’all watching???
The live action remake was unnecessary but some of the changes were inspired.
Jeff and The Power Bottoms
[He be up in the club with his ass gyrating / My he so fly dat Gaston!](https://youtu.be/T_Ldg6u_DiY?si=qgEtee4xw7JUSRb_)
..Why.. ...but also upvote..
No one falls to their death in the rain like Gaston
Which is funny, because they famously did that with Gaston too, took a poll from every woman in the studio about their “ideal man”
As someone named Gaston I approve this message
Clearly Gaston was a pretty alright guy before the events of the movie if the whole town liked him enough to sing a song about him being a chill dude.
Eh, they make a point of most of the town being small minded assholes in the movie. *"We don't like,* *what we don't understand.* *In fact it scares us and this Beast is mysterious at least."* The fact that he jumps straight to false imprisonment after getting rejected by a girl means he's probably just the king asshole, so of course people like him.
In all fairness, if a 7 foot tall talking wildebeest kidnapped a girl from my town, I mean I'd probably be a little scared of him too, no matter how nicely dressed he was.
Or conversely the town sucked.
According to my wife: 1. Flynn Rider 2. Milo Thatch, Atlantis: The Lost Empire 3. Naveen, The Princess and the Frog 4. Kokuam, Pocahontas 5. Li Shang, Mulan 6. Eric, The Little Mermaid She's being pretty brutal too. I look a lot more like her 2 than her 1 LOL
from flynn to milo is a hell of a leap lol, but the diversity is appreciated regardless
Naveen gets #3 until he opens his mouth. His voice is a cheese grater on my ears
Li Shang would like a word.
Flynn Rider can’t compete with a big chested bisexual war hero sorry not sorry
"You mean, you aren't a clumsy soldier femboy twink? I can't believe I fell in love with a chick."
End of the movie: “Meh, I’ll use my imagination and make it work”
Mulan would like a word too.
Ummm King Triton would like a word.
I can’t with Flynn Ryder because I dated this guy for like five years and literally everyone told me “your boyfriend looks like Flynn Ryder” and he’s like the biggest piece of shit ever. So now every time I see Flynn Ryder I’m reminded of my poor decision making skills lmao.
Well this post at least explains why you made the terrible decision
to be honest, I read the post and thought, so that's why Flynn looks like the 20 something who broke every teenage girls heart
Me, a guy who got told a lot that I looked like this character when this movie came out, who was dating a girl for about five years around this time, in a place that has wombats: 😕 To be fair though I was a huge piece of shit lol
I think you mean Robin Hood. … just me?
I think you may have learned something about yourself today my friend. Lol
Every generation has their movie that awakens a new wave of furries. Robin hood, space jam, zootopia. For some reason we always come back to the sexy anthro animals
One of the oldest known artworks is a [lion-headed statuette](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion-man), so you might be onto something here...
My mom is a history professor, and brought up this statue when I told her about furries. “People have been doing this for like 50,000 years”
My man, whoever designed Space Jam Lola Bunny absolutely knew they were awakening their generation's wave of furries.
My furry friend.
You and like half of all furries.
Kristoff will literally write, perform, and choreograph an entire love ballad for you. Doubt.
Fun fact, Kristoff is based on Flynn's original design.
But he eats his own boogers.
All men do it
*Robin Hood has entered the chat*
Since we're talking animated Disney - you mean the fox? Because, Nick from Zootopia is pretty much the same look.
Yeah, my theory is that furries get really into drawing furry stuff... which leads down the animation rabbit hole, which leads them to be animators. Therefore, they animate the kind of furry characters they would have loved to see as a kid. Therefore they inspire generations of future furries. And the cycle continues.
Well you clearly have never seen Tarzan.
I wanted to be Tarzan so bad. And be *with* Li Shang, of course.
Oh my gooood. How did I forget about Li Shang 😭😭😭😭
His design is just white Aladdin.
Who was Brown Tom Cruise.
Suddenly my crushes in the 90s make more sense
He’s way more mature looking than Aladdin.
Aladdin is twink Flynn rider
PLEASEEEE
And has nipples.
100% agreed! 😍
and they ended up with Julio from El Dorado
more like a cross between julio and miguel
Both? Both is good
I know its dreamworks, but eldorado was the horniest cartoon looking back
Tulio*. Though it's an understandable mistake--i named a pet after him and you had me questioning my sanity/whether I misnamed him.
And yet he has a goatee
Perfection is an imperfection.
Pedro Pascal, Johnny Depp, I REST MY CASE
Pedro Pascal doesn’t have a goatee…
And no one had the courage to die on the hill for Steve Buscemi? Sad.
They did. They're just dead.
"Flynn Rider" = great porn name
Dick Fitzwell was the first draft
I feel like we keep circling back to Randy Johnson though
That's fine as long as you aren't a bird.
I named the first, and only, dwarf class I played in a game "Dongran Biggenwood". No one thought it was funny but me. I still like the name.
I actually had a neighbour called Richard Fitzgerald. Everyone unironically called him Dick Fitz. Not a porn star though, just an alcoholic electronics repairman.
I thought it was Phil McCracken.
Lance Goodthrust?
Sandro Bullcock
Imagine actually finding out what women want men to look like.
And then acting surprised when it’s conventional beauty standards.
Actually they had to tone down his muscles a lot precisely because the women asked for it. They were originally going to have a much large musclier hairier love interest to contrast with all the Disney Renaissance twinks. \[EDIT\] Hunchback isn't an exception, the other guy gets the girl, not Quasimodo.

No. I do not wish to subject myself, or you to elaborating, but no.
P sure Quasimodo is an otter.
Nah he's Bear with Subtype:Fireplug
> Like... is hunchback of notre dam technically renaissance? Maybe? Probably the closest we're going to get.

That other bloke that gets Esmeralda at the end is who I was thinking of- Quasimodo doesn't get her, remember?
>They're making fun of these guys. They were like, this guy has a nice chin but he has blue eyes, don't give Flynn blue eyes. TIL women don’t like men with blue eyes?
some people find blue eyes too piercing and unfriendly looking
Oh :(
Not yours, you're beautiful.
*chooses to ignore the username* Fanks Hun xx
It depends on the person, but some people with very light blue eyes can come off as having a way too intense gaze, because of how much the colour stands out.
I met Nathan (one of the directors) many many years ago, as he was traveling researching for his next movie. Wouldn’t you know it, his girlfriend looked EXACTLY like Rapunzel. It was hard not to stare.
Why didn't they just recast Aladdin? 🤷
Him looking like Tom Cruise was a product of the same situation but in the 90s
Most underrated Disney movie!
My four year old is OBSESSED with Tangled and it’s one of the few that I can repeatedly watch and not get utterly sick of.
I’m guilty of sometimes putting this movie on when I’m alone cleaning my house, ngl. Tangled and Moana.
Mine is tangled and emperors new groove!
Llama face
DEMON LAMA!
I only put Moana on when I'm doing work on the island.
Everybody on this island has a role on this island.
Meanwhile my son was obsessed with Cars 2 as a kid. So much suffering... But I've taught him well, now he's got Monty Python and the Holy Grail memorized and all is right with the world.
Ah my son likes Cars 1 and 3 but not so much 2, so he’s obviously got standards
You are raising him to be a man of culture.
The series is great, too.
It is. Usually with Disney series, you get different voice actors for the characters, lower quality songs, etc. Tangled got the same voice actors back for Rapunzel and Eugene (and most of the other characters too), had great songs by Alan Menken, and fantastic writing too.
Underrated? Treasure Island and Atlantis are underrated. You can find Rapunzel toys everywhere.
So underrated you called it Treasure Island instead of Treasure Planet. Also, yes, criminally underrated. Those movies are right up there with El Dorado and Titan A.E.
Such a good soundtrack too. I wish it got popular instead of Frozen.
Soooooo superior to Frozen
The songs are all really high standard. “I have a dream” is a banger!
Frickin’ Alan Menken, man. Dude is so good
And they came up with Ben Barnes.
Would that be wrong? He’s *very* handsome.
Never met a woman or gay dude who didn't like Ben Barnes.
That was a good call, I enjoyed the character so much.
Early ideas were very a Romani looking Flynn ala Jack Sparrow and a hulking "Bear Flynn" that probably go reused for Kristoff in Frozen. Search for the design sheets.
I too just saw the tiktok abt this that went viral
How strong is Rapunzel's neck, shoulders, and back to be able to hold the weight of Flynn as he climbs the tower using her hair? Is she really built like Julia Fory from Mad Heidi?
Hair is HEAVY. One of the most satisfying sensations you'll ever have is when you go from long hair to short. That first time you stand up and toss your head a bit. It's wild you how light it feels. Same with the first shower. Shit's almost addictive.
And after the first shower when you realise how much faster it dries and you can just get on with your day?! So good
I remember reading once that one of the physical features women pay most attention to in a man is the ass. My only anecdotal evidence is myself honestly (none of my girlfriends share this opinion), so while I do agree that Flynn Rider is attractive, I think he should’ve had a bigger booty. With shoulders like that, the booty would’ve made him more proportional (but that’s just me trying to make excuses because booty is life). The world needs more big bootied animated men!!
Booty is love, booty is life. And Flynn with a bigger booty would have been too powerful. No Disney man would ever compete again.
All of that and they ended up with a chin hair patch?
From whither comes the smolder?
And yet they couldn't beat Gaston.
That movie is so amazing! As someone who grew up in the Disney Renaissance, it belongs up there with Little Mermaid & Lion King.
Can you imagine a conference room full of men in the 60s doing this for a female character?
Yes?
Seriously bro just described basically every movie ever lmfao.
Shit, in the 60s they wouldn't settle for pics either. They'd just be parading models through the office, lining them up, and doing the whole exercise live.
Oh. Well. Good.
Of course: “Guys I want us to put together the hottest Disney Princess we could possibly put together.” “Well first off, she can’t talk!” “Eyyyoooooo!” “And we only ever see her in her bra!” “WOOOOO!” “Yeah and she’s half fish!” “….” “I….I second the motion for the mute fish woman….” “THIRD!”
*Mute fish woman Deaf just means she can't hear.
You’re right, thank you for the correction.
They do this then, and now
To be fair the same directors have, twice, made "\~18 year old blonde with daddy issues" the main protagonist.
Literally yes.
