Honest Trailer for Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID
Yesterday marked the 25th anniversary of the theatrical release of Disney’s The Little Mermaid. To celebrate, Screen Junkies whipped up a new installment of Honest Trailers that explores the numerous flawed lessons taught in the Disney animated classic — which saved the Mouse House and kicked off their animated hot streak that dominated the ’90s. I’m surprised they don’t mention the phallic imagery hidden in the movie and on the art used for posters and the original VHS cover (pictured above). Slight oversight aside, the Screen Junkies gang do a great job, as always. They even enlisted the help of AVbyte to create honest renditions of a few of the movie’s famous songs.
It's been 25 years since Disney took us under the sea. Now, relive the film that saved Disney before Pixar did - The Little Mermaid!!
