These films get their own section because there are a whole lot of ‘em. After Disney executives shut down production on the many direct-to-video sequels, satellite studio DisneyToons was tasked with creating films for the Planes series (a spinoff of Cars) and the Disney Fairies franchise, a spinoff of Peter Pan exploring the fairy world that Tinker Bell originally came from. The franchise was marketed similar to the Disney Princess franchise (with the same target demographic), with dolls, books, a meet-and-greet section in the Disney parks, and a film series released between 2008 and 2014. Future sequels were cancelled because they weren’t making quite enough money on DVD sales – I figure it was a case of market oversaturation. I’m not exactly the target demographic so I’m merely ambivalent about these films, but I can tell you one thing – if I were 20 years younger, I would have LOVED THE SHIT OUT OF THESE MOVIES.

Tinker Bell (2008)

[This review has been moved over from previously being listed under Part VIII, and I unintentionally repeated myself a bit when introducing the franchise. Whoopsie.]

As of the Disney-Pixar merger, production was halted on the (many) planned direct-to-video sequels. Instead, from now on, DisneyToon Studios would be solely producing the Planes spinoff films, and the Disney Fairies franchise. I guess there are worse things you could be employed for. So Tinker Bell is the first of a spinoff prequel series about Tinker Bell’s life before she met Peter Pan, which explores the place of her birth, called Pixie Hollow. There are apparently 6 movies so far, a bunch of books, their own section in the Disney Parks…whew. When Disney launches a marketing scheme, they really know how to push it. I confess I’m not particularly well versed in this universe, but I suppose as I watch the films I’ll understand things more.

THE BEST:

There was a distinct Celtic flavour in the instrumental and vocal music, which I really appreciated as A: Much of the accepted Western lore about Fairies is based in Celtic mythology and B: ‘Tis the song of my people! There were lots of fiddles and flutes in the music, which gave the film both a whimsical and a bittersweet tone. It really worked well as a part of the world building of Pixie Hollow too. The very pretty vocal music was non-diegetic, so there wasn’t any singing of feelings or anything. Which is slightly disappointing, as Kristen Chenoweth is in the voice cast. One minor problem that the setting/music caused is that the Fairies don’t really have consistent accents, and there’s no explained reason why. But Disney never really pays attention to that sort of thing.

THE WORST:

The only reason this franchise has anything to do with Peter Pan is because of cynical marketing tactics going on a name recognition basis. There is basically nothing, beyond a few tiny references here and there, that has anything to do with the original film. Tinker Bell herself is an entirely different character – there’s none of that vindictive, jealous behaviour (that was perhaps a result of sexist attitudes in the 50s). Instead she’s clumsy, unhappy with the job she was born to do, and socially awkward. She’s ultimately a nice person here, which, uh, is not what I think of when I think of Tinker Bell. In Peter Pan, you got the distinct impression that Peter was the only person in the world that she loved, let alone respected. Well…she’s trying very hard to fit in with Pixie Hollow, so…she might as well be an entirely different character. The Disney Fairies series really could have stood on its own as an original story instead of a very loose spinoff.
[Edit: As explained in the comments below, Tinker Bell’s wild personality divergences actually come from J.M. Barrie’s original description of fairies as being so small, they can only be all good or all bad at one time. Which is a much more comforting thought!]

THE BEST:

I really like the Moonstone. It’s absolutely beautifully animated, and while I can’t quite figure out the connection between Moonstones and Autumn (Harvest Moons, I guess?) I just liked looking at the shiny anyway. I am quite biased in this respect, as I wear a Moonstone ring every day. The film’s Moonstone looked realistic, but also believably magical. I also have to say that although I will never be a fan of Tinker Bell as a character, she was written a lot more like how I knew her – with her having an explosive temper (and a face that turns red when she’s about to blow).

THE WORST:

I was led to believe that the Disney Fairies movies would be a lot more of an ensemble storyline rather than focusing exclusively on Tinker Bell. The other films rectified this problem,
