Summary
"The Little Mermaid" sparked the Disney Renaissance of the '90s, burning unforgettable songs like "Under The Sea" and "Part of Your World" into the memories of Gen X and Millennials alike.
Since then, Pixar and other studios have pushed animated features to levels we never thought possible. Digital framerates, lighting, sound and design are near perfection, making Disney's 1989 release feel a little dated.
But old isn't necessarily bad. So listener Jackson M. posed this question to Shat The Movies: Does a 35-year-old "The Little Mermaid" still hold up? And it was a tough one to answer.
In this episode, the Shat Crew explores whether Ariel was a nightmare child, why King Triton entrusted her safety to a singing crab and how Disney handled a teen mermaid's transition into a human girl.
