A few weeks ago, http://paticmak.tumblr.com/ (Pati Cmak) drew some pictures of Hamilton the musical portayed as a Disney animated movie. These drawings are absolutely incredible and got me thinking of not only what Hamilton would look like as a animated movie but as scenes from various disney movies already created. I mean, c'mon, I know we all want a Hamilton Disney movie.
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
The opening number, "Alexander Hamilton", would be big and extravagant like these scenes from Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid (minus the dancing utensils and the sea life orchestra):
King George III would sing all of his numbers like this:
"The Schuyler Sisters" would look something like this, sass and all:
Alex/Eliza's wedding ("Helpless/Satisfied") would be modeled after Ariel and Eric's wedding:
"The Room Where it Happens" would be an evil villain huge production number:
The death of Philip Hamilton ("Blow Us All Away, Stay Alive reprise") would be similar to this heart wrenching scene in The Lion King:
Hamilton and Burr's duel leading up to Hamilton's death ("The World Was Wide Enough") would be like the Peter Pan and Captain Hook fight:
The final number ("Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story") may not have your typical Disney ending:
But the ending does serve a great purpose in reminding us about legacy and time and how important both of those things are. And besides, Disney is all about teaching a nice life lesson.
