It really just doesn't make sense. They set up this huge convoluted system about having a wish and giving it up when you turn eighteen to live in a perfect society, and the whole entire plot and the arcs of all the characters hinge on it, but the movie itself doesn't know how it works or what it means. The king develops a land where he takes everyone's wishes because his family was murdered, which implies that murdering people is a wish, so he has to be the gatekeeper of wishes. But then at the end the solution is to just give everyone their wishes even though the plot has explicitly told us that there are, in fact, bad wishes. So is everyone in town just accidentally harmonious? And what does it even mean to give up a wish? If the animals and plants are capable of wishing, why aren't they all talking all the time? What? This isn't nitpicking, it prompts these questions of its own accord. Also, every song is an atrocity. The melodies are whatever, but the lyrics are truly some of the most inept I've ever heard.

All the songs are by Julia Michaels, whose entire catalogue seems to be those generic pop songs they play in gyms.

Oh yeah, the Hunchback musical is pretty widely acclaimed as being the best of the Disney stage musicals by a significant margin, and people in the Broadway community are constantly champing at the bit for a transfer.

The cat in Soul was so ugly that it made the movie hard to watch.

Yeah if you're an actual artist you can make an ai image and then slap it into photoshop and do a drawover of the parts that suck poo poo but if you're an idiot hack fraud with no talent there's nothing you can but press the AI diarrhea button over and over praying one of the turds it farts out will be acceptably composed enough to pass off as real art made by someone who isn't an inept moron.

The foot-cutting and the eye-pecking bits both get great audience reactions during Into The Woods.
