Hey all, I really hope you enjoy this exploration of Disney’s Cancelled & Abandoned Animations! To best avoid too many “You forgot about…” comments, I thought I’d quickly share the criteria I used to build this episode: 1. Had to be a FEATURE LENGTH animated film, as the list of shorts would require an entire series of its own. 2. Only films that will never see the light of day and that aren’t currently in the works for an alternate version, or were simply reworked into a similar film…one or two exceptions for reasons I discuss in the episode. 3. Also keep in mind, a few might appear in Part 2, as the latter half of their development is more relevant or tells the best story. 4. Has nothing to do with the criteria, but I mistakenly said that Rock-A-Doodle was a Disney film...I was going based off my personal belief that it was a Disney film having watched it many times growing up...I now realize I've been living a lie, as it wasn't...I'm going to attribute it to the Mandela effect.

Have the book, The Disney That Never Was. Goes into more detail on all unfinished films and shorts including ones not shown in this video. I like this format though, it's easier to digest in my honest opinion. A lot of these thinking about it, would be great but one has to wonder about the execution on some of these. Hiawatha, for example, sounds really cool but given the time it would've been adapted it'd probably be in the same situation Song of the South is today (especially since Pocahontas has gotten some pushback in recent years). I can't wait for the second part and fingers crossed for the shorts version.

That's because Pocahantas is genuinely problematic and shittily handled, Hiawatha, in everything he said, is not the same.

So tired of people assuming you can't do stories about non white people because it would "be seen as racist," like no. If you do it in a racist way, it will be seen as racist. By that same logic, Princess Frog shouldn't have been made, because it involves black people, and you know how people loved to push back against Song of the South, it's the same thing!

Disney's not the only one. Most of Hollywood seems enamored of one word movie titles these days. Granted that one word is better than 11 (The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed-up Zombies anyone?), one word titles aren't really very informative.

Just a little nitpick from a Disney-trained animator: "animations" is not a word (at least not in the Disney lexicon). Animation is already plural, as it refers to a series of movements as a whole. The more correct usage would be "Animated Features" or "Animated Projects". I've gotten chides from Eric Goldberg in the past for using it the wrong way.

You should do a video about the original version of Frozen, with Elsa evil and Let it Go written for her as a villain. Not sure if that's enough material for a video, or if that would be part of a "Classic movies that were almost drastically different"

about The Gremlins It was also cancelled cause of Warner Brothers did 2 gremlin cartoons in Falling Hare (1943) & Russian Rhapsody (1944)

I was gonna mention the one short with the 'Gremlins from the Kremlin', here I was thinking it was Disney that made it. Memory was jogged, it was WB!

Disney almost made an animated adaptation of "The Tale Of Peter Rabbit" by Beatrix Potter. During mid production of "Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs" in 1936. Walt Disney expressed interest on turning "The Tale Of Peter Rabbit" into an animated film in 1936. Beatrix Potter turned down the offer saying "There is a scheme to film Peter Rabbit. I am not very hopeful about the result."

If you guys want to see a potential animated Disney adaptation of Peter Rabbit I suggest you go read my four chapter fanfic on how I believe Disney could adapt the Peter Rabbit story! As this whole story I’m working on is actually a compilation of four books written by Beatrix Potter that both star Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny as this adaptation stays very faithful to the original source material although there will be a few changes from here and there but I think the biggest change I’ve made from the original source is that Peter and Benjamin instead of being cousins like in the original are instead just non related best friends which is a change I made to have their friendship feel more youthful and rebellious and also more importantly to avoid elements of incest that happens later on in the story when Benjamin grows up to marry and have children with Peter’s sister Flopsy! And so my adaptation compiled by four books would be a coming of age story about family tradition, dealing with the loss of a loved one, rebellious youth, power of friendship, childhood memories, having crushes, growing up, being a good father, remembering the good old times, and, reconnecting with your old best friends! You’ll know what I’m talking about if you read my story! I’ll leave you a link if you guys are curious to read it I think you guys are gonna love it! This is a story I wrote as a tribute Beatrix Potter but as tribute most importantly Walt Disney himself as he originally wanted to adapt this story but couldn’t do it at the time and so this whole animated Disney Peter Rabbit fanfic I made was a story I wrote specifically for Walt Disney himself as I believe that if he were to have made this adaptation this would be the kinda story I think he would have wanted to make!

Warner Bros adapted the Peter Rabbit character for the Merrie Melodies in 1935.

When will Disney ever looking back to their archives for some interesting ideas for future films? Or getting back to hand drawn animation as we approach to 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of Hollywood golden age? BTW what was clip at 18:05 sure looks interesting.

That Fantasia sequel looks incredible.

The Gremlins were later used in the Nintendo Wii game Epic Mickey.

She Tells The Boy That She's Always With Him, Even In His Quest At The City (Think Of Her As A Guardian Angel). Even Add Some Scenes Of Chanticleer Having Flashbacks Of Seeing Morning Glory As A Chick Where She Tells Him That He's "Always One Of Us" And Always The Dawn Of A New Day To Fulfill His Duties For The King.Morning Glory I Also Describe Morning Glory As Rebellious Against The Owl Like Katniss Everdeen, Saying "The Whole If We Burn, You Burn With Us" In Front Of His Face. And With The Chanticleer's Crow, The Rising Sun, And Morning Glory's Power, They Mange To Shrink The Owl (Morning Glory: Now Everyone Will Know Who You Really Are, From A Big Bully, To A Wee Pipsqueak. In The Name Of My Father, You Are Hereby Stripped From Your Title As Duke Of Night, Never To Show Your Face In My Kingdom Again *Steps And Kicks The Small Owl, Leaving Hunch To Finish Him Off*). With The Evil Owl Gone, Morning Glory Changed The Boy Back Into A Human, Taking Him Back Home With His Family Free From The Owl's Custody. And When The Boy Met Chanticleer And Morning Glory Again, Morning Glory (Now Queen) Tells Him That His Bravery And Sacrifice Brought A Miracle To Both Their Worlds And Tells Him Everyone Is Waiting For Him To Celebrate.

That nightmare version of Alice looks so cool. Would love to see that adapted into a cartoon eventually.

I have a theory about Gigantic. The same way Disney cancelled Pixar's Newt because it was too similar to Rio, I believe Gigantic was cancelled due to Dreamworks' Puss in Boots (wich includes several Jack-and-the-beanstalk plot points) and Warner bros' Jack The Giant Slayer (a retelling of the story with enphasis on action, adventure and comedy). Both were released in the 2010s.

Morgan"s Ghost led to Donald Duck Finds Pirate Gold. Carl Barks, known as The Duck Man did the art. It led to a long career with The Duck Family.

Michael Eisner, Kevin Perjurer wants to know your location...

That Hiawatha Movie sounds absolutely amazing, especially for the prejudice of the time. Also Musicana, those concepts sound amazing! I wish Disney would make more Fantasia's with these concepts and more.

Holy moley, we could have had Disney animation on Where the Wild Things Are!? Now I really want to see that!

This is quite the documentary you have here. More informative than any other on Disney works ever. A great deal of which is new to me and the orgin stories of books and features of unknown (to me) projects are priceless. Thank you for this. Now, it's time for part 2!

Absolutely fantastic video ! Can’t WAIT for part 2. I find the lost , unmade movies fascinating.

Oh man I'd love to watch Musicana, since Fantasia is one of my favorite movies!

I hate to be THAT commentor, but isn't Rock-A-Doodle a Don Bluth film, not a Disney film? Also I really wish a lot of these were released, they look like they would've been instant classics!

I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this, and I CANNOT WAIT for part 2!! I hope you'll take the time to go into detail, because there's so much juicy stuff! One of the greatest things about working for Disney was one of the most frustrating things: seeing all kinds of versions of movies, or entire concepts, some not very good, some wonderful (IMHO) that the public would never know existed. So glad you're changing that! Rock on, brother.

thanks for this, looking forward to part two! I love hearing about production and how movies evolved

Hiawatha sounds really cool, but I feel like it would have worked better as a live action film (except maybe for the serpent sequence at the end)

I would have adored the darker Alice, Morgan's Tales, & Hiawatha. I had NO idea Roald Dahl was that old. I thought his books were new in the 80s.

Bugs Bunny's Falling Hare (1943) involves an airplane gremlin. Also, Joe Dante revived the now-standard WB logo specifically for Gremlins. He's also open to doing a 3rd Gremlins movie if folks will just throw money at him.

I really wonder if Hiwatha had been done, would Pocahontas have ever been made?

I can't believe that Mary Pickford almost got to play Alice!

I wonder if Gigantic was cancelled because of the John Lasseter controversy?

Wow, what a great and well-researched video! Thanks for all the work you put in.

This makes me want to be an animator.

Red Ace, When it comes to adaptations, the original source material is usually used less than other adaptations. For Alice in Wonderland, most of what we immediately think of are those John Tenniel illustrations; a representation of the words, not the words themselves. Which then inspired the 1923 silent film, which inspired the 1933 film, and so on and so on. It's like a game of Chinese whispers, by the time we get to the Tim Burton adaptation, it's so far removed from the novel, it's nearly unrecognizable aside from a few designs and themes. The 'purest' adaptation I can think of is the Czech 1988 movie called 'Alice' by Jan Švankmajer. Which seems to be removed from other adaptations completely. Does it make for a better movie? I don't know, it's certainly the weirdest of them all. There is an English version, and definitely worth a watch if you're a fan of creepy Eastern European surrealism. (It's a very, *very* weird movie...)

I'm guessing the reason Disney probably didn't go ahead with the Gremlins story is that Warner Bros already came out with a Bugs Bunny cartoon (1943 short called "Falling Hare") that had the same airplane-hooded gremlins!

When they cancelled gigantic i got mad and sad, it looked like it was gonna be great, NOPE, just more remakes
