Is there a better mix of music and visuals than the "I Am Moana" scene?

NHarmonic. · Jul 10, 2018

A.k.a share other scenes where there's a perfect blend of music and visual content.

I need to share this scene because it's an incredible audiovisual piece. Everything in the movie leads to this powerful scene, full of meaning and emotion.

(spoilers for Disney's Moana)

Thoughts?

Honestly, I think either "We Know the Way" or "How Far I'll Go" is better, but I see where you're coming from

From that movie I enjoyed Shiny way more, followed by We Know the Way

The best scene of the movie right there.

I am Moana part is still really damn good through.

Tagg · Jul 10, 2018

The 60 seconds of music when Moana starts singing is still spine-tingling. The visuals I couldn't care less about.

Call Me by Your Name, both Sufjan Steven songs. The ending song gets all the love but I like the one we get in the middle just as much, if not more.

Lin Manuel Miranda did a great job on that soundtrack.

It's funny how many similarities to Hamilton you can hear in some songs.

MOANA is the best Disney/Pixar cartoon movie so far in the 2010s

Change my mind

Deleted member 9035 · Jul 10, 2018

The main theme from that film was intentionally based on The Little Mermaid's "Under the Sea". And I can't unhear it.

I watched it for the first time yesterday, and it's ridiculous how it's so obviously LMM writing the songs.

I wonder how many days someone spent agonizing over and tweaking that, because it's just perfect

Moana might be the best animated Disney movie of the last 25 years.

It's technically classic disney with cgi

My favourite scene. The visual and the music complement each other

VeePs · Jul 10, 2018

Man, I thought that scene was great, and then the ending scene was AMAZING. Just wooooow.

Not gonna try and change your mind, you like what you like. But I really enjoyed Tangled.

Looking through this thread, Moana evidently had a lot of incredible scenes.

That "I am MOANAAAAAAA!" followed by diving into the sea is freakin' awesome though.

WillyFive · Jul 10, 2018

Lin Manuel Miranda is the best.

This is by far the best part of the movie. It's epic, beautiful and full of history and meaning. I loved it so much.

It really is. I didn't realise til way later that Moana's dad is voiced by Christopher Lloyd, who played Washington in the original cast or Hamilton.

Kill Bill Nurse

Django Rick Ross

The Pulp Fiction Katana

Tarantino kinda has a history of killing it with this shit. Either Kill Bill alone has like 10 examples.

The Rohirrim charge at Helm's Deep from The Two Towers is my #1 choice.

Yes! The Lord of the Rings has a TON of examples of this. It's amazing how music elevate those films.

Also yes, Kill Bill's music is incredible, and anything else from Tarantino too.

I was reminded why I don't own this yet b/c Disney hasn't released it in UHD yet, COME ON DISNEY.

Weeniekuns · Jul 10, 2018

Moana is honestly top tier Disney IMHO.... equal to Ratatouille and Lion King

I believe it was never even mastered in 4K/HDR... Disney is still at 2K according to a friend of mine who works there

Is there a better mix of music and visuals than the "I Am Moana" scene?
