Removal of the Guardian article quote and ref.
[edit]Now, this edit by @DisneyMetalhead: with the following edit summary "Removed the completely UNNECESSARY political commentary -- wtf does Musk and Trump have to do with Polynesian culture and Moana. No, we don't need flamewars going on. Adjusted sentences" is in my view not justified at all, and I am not sure the tone of the edit summary is appropriate, but let's pretend it does not matter. I won't reinstate the quote/ref myself because I have no time to waste on this but if (politically oriented or not) significant coverage by an EXTREMELY reliable source exists (and by an established film writer for the said source), then it can be quoted. I had added it and mention it at the current Afd, fwiw. It is not offensive, and was probably the BEST source on the page so far. But hey. I won't be surprised if it is reinstated sooner or later. In my view it should. And I would appreciate if DisneyMetalhead reinserted it, to be honest. The quote can be changed if Trump or Musk are They Who Cannot Be Named but the presence of this source would, again, I think, serve the purpose of the article.-My, oh my!

- @Mushy Yank: the fact that the journalist's political opinion notes Trump and Musk, is superfluous and has nothing to do with the film. If we want to quote the journalists in paraphrase stating that the source had an opinion that the movie is notable for modern-age -- that's more constructive to an article about a children's movie. A cartoon musical film that is made for children, needn't include the journalist's sociopolitical opinions about 2 real-world figures who have nothing to do with Polynesian culture, nor with the film in any capacity.--DisneyMetalhead (talk) 22:29, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
- I can agree with that. since we do NOT know much about the film at this point. Historyday01 (talk) 22:39, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Moana 2 now has a co-Director
[edit]Got some new info on Moana 2: https://assets.dam.gettyimages.com/35jpsh53q86gxj97vtt43jh/v/1183471455/original/MOANA%202%20Project%20Profile%20FINAL%2004-04-2024.pdf?Expires=1712699160&KeyName=gcs-bfldr-prod&Signature=oYONSd4GC3QNYlzDVbDngt8qu6c=.
Apparently, we have a co-director joining the film with Dave Derrick Jr. in Jason Hand, a layout artist from The Princess and the Frog & Winnie the Pooh (2011) who also helped write the story while being a head of story for Encanto, was a story artist on Big Hero 6 and Zootopia, and was a storyboard supervisor on Ralph Breaks The Internet.
Was wondering if we could add this new info into the film’s Wiki page. 2600:1001:B100:3EF1:6479:3C6:6979:E56C (talk) 22:05, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- Is this Getty Image authentic, or AI? We would need to cite a better source, like a news article from a mainstream paper or magazine. What does the "co-directed by" credit mean, anyhow? Why isn't it just "directed by A and B?" Is the co-director a lesser position that need not be mentioned in an encyclopedia article? -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:02, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
- I wouldn't trust an image - too easy to fake. A co-director is basically a high-level assistant to the director. The director will be the one to get the DGA credit and will be the person who we list in the director parameter of the infobox. Geraldo Perez (talk) 04:18, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
- I should let you know that David G. Derrick Jr. should received a sole "Written & Directed By" credit while Jason Hand and Dana LeDoux Miller recieved a "Co-Directed By" credit because Mr. Derrick Jr. is the true mastermind behind the sequel, OK?? His Samoan heritage is the reason why he got the chance to take the helm for Moana 2 in the first place even when it's originally a Disney+ original series!!! 2601:248:5600:6000:2193:7AF9:723:2E00 (talk) 01:13, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Writing credits
[edit]For any reason, is David Derrick Jr. confirmed as the final screenwriter…… VenezuelanSpongeBobFan2004 (talk) 21:37, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Put Walt Disney Pictures credit on the article, it will be stupid if you only put WDAS credit and not WAP. 105.156.104.84 (talk) 12:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 12:52, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Couldn't find mention of Walt Disney Pictures being involved in sources. It's a separate production studio from Walt Disney Animation Studios so I don't see why they would necessarily be involved. Liu1126 (talk) 12:59, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
