Disney vs DreamWorks: The Little Mermaid Feud Continues in RUBY GILLMAN, TEENAGE KRAKEN? #shorts

 

In the world of animation, there's nothing quite like a good old-fashioned rivalry, and the longstanding beef between Disney's "The Little Mermaid" and DreamWorks Animation is one for the ages. The roots of this feud go back to the 1980s, when film producer Jeffrey Katzenberg, who was working for Walt Disney Studios at the time, expressed his disapproval of "The Little Mermaid" to his colleagues. Katzenberg believed that there were too many mermaid movies being made at the time and was even critical of Ariel's iconic red hair. However, the film went on to become a massive success, and Katzenberg was left with a bit of egg on his face. Years later, after leaving Walt Disney Studios for DreamWorks Animation, Katzenberg got his revenge in a subtle but memorable way in "Shrek 2". In a scene from the film, Princess Fiona throws an Ariel lookalike into the ocean, a clear jab at his former employer. Now, it seems that DreamWorks Animation is taking another swipe at Ariel with their upcoming film, "Ruby Gillman: Teenage Kraken". The film's villain bears a striking resemblance to Ariel, leaving fans to wonder if this is yet another shot fired in the ongoing feud between these two animation giants. #shorts #rubygillmanteenagekraken #didyouknow #moviefacts #moviedetails
