In more of the recent Disney movies, they have gone with surprise villains, where you pretty much don't know right away when you see them that they will be the villain of the story. Did anybody think when they first saw Frozen that the villain would be Prince Hans? And I can't believe Dead parents isn't higher on the list then it is. But does Lady and the Tramp really has a villain? Some of you might wonder what about Aunt Sarah, I am not sure about her though. A lot of the times Disney villains would be seen pretty much right away in their stories, but Aunt Sarah isn't first mentioned until you see Jim Dear on the telephone delivering the news to her that the baby is a boy. But she is not seen on the screen, until she arrives at Jim Dear and Darling's house to babysit while they are going on a trip. And she does bad deeds like kicking Lady out of the baby room's, has a muzzle put on her, has her in a dog house, and even has Tramp taken off to the pound. But we don't see her paying for the deeds she does, where most of the villains falls to their death, while some of them don't. And ones that don't (spoiler warning) include Cruella De Vil, Scar, and Prince Hans.

It's funny (peculiar, not ha-ha) but when I first started watching this, I suddenly thought of Westerns. Western movies, TV shows, and even books, have a bunch of these same consistent themes. I noticed when I was a kid, with the old '30s and '40s movies, the hero rode into town--with his comic relief! --met the girl, whose father-grandfather-uncle was the only relative in sight (what happened to Mom---and possibly Dad. In these old Horse Operas the Head Villain usually wore a frock coat and had his office in the back room of the saloon, which he owned. Like many animated movies, the villain wants the girl, who can't stand the sight of him, and the hero, who fell in love the minute he clapped eyes on her, has to rescue her in the end. Likewise, almost any feature movie of that era that had a boy in the mix would find the poor kid dead about a third of the way in. What surprises me is that even Louis L'Amour, possibly the best Western writer of all time, perpetuated a lot of this. And these weren't always aimed at kids, particularly L'Amour.

It seems that all the animated movies expressed in this video are solely based on American animated films and many of the cliches are based on ones that are during the earlier period of animation where they are specifically designed to target audiences of that time, according to their beliefs and social standards and were not yet considered 'cliches' (Which were not only targeted to children but everyone. Also happy endings is a very american stylised story line as they wanted to do the American dream ending.

Animal sidekicks who have no purpose of being there except being company
Boys wearing feminine clothing seen as humourous
Fart humour
Crush having no other personality trait then rather being hot
Fat people seen as a comic relief for being fat and only liking food

I love how they were talking about totally obvious villains and that one of the reasons was because they were generally kids movies, then they show Snow White, which was a movie made for General Audiences. meaning EVERYONE (which is what the G rating originally meant.

Where have these people been on doing research on movies!
The Movies Kung Fu Panda and Turbo were FUING MADE BY DREAMWORKS! NOT Paramount or Universal! But what they got right about movies being made by Dreamworks are Shrek and The Prince Of Egypt.

The cliche in animation I really hate, is the liar being revealed, and the twist villain. I really hate in recent Disney movies that villain turned out to be a lair, and nearly ruins the film, because they took a cheap shot at those characters.

My mom would always get mad at me because I would always tell my younger cousins to sleep as much as you can so you won't have to face the inevitable horrible future that is your life.

Good point. Wishes and dreams in movies makes us as audiences want to go out and pursue our own wishes and dreams. And when it comes to dumb henchmen, they pretty much give us consultation

The whole damsel in distress and the hero is one cliche I have to agree with because not everything has to revolve around that concept during an animated film sometimes

Um. Twist Villains? Adult Jokes? Pop Cultural References? Ending Dance Parties? The Misfit Main Protagonist? The Liar Revealed plots? The Being Yourself Aesop?

THE TWIST VILLAIN I can tolerate most of these but that cliche, trope of whatever is lazy storytelling by this point.

The obvious villains were an old trope, NOW twist villains are becoming the new animated cliche (to a certain extent.

Not all animated movies have happy endings. They also have sad endings. For example: Grave Of The Fireflies.
