Hexed is directed by Fawn Veerasunthorn and Jason Hand. Veerasunthorn co-directed the 100th anniversary Disney animated film. Do you remember what it was? Don't cheat and read ahead. Go ahead, try to remember it. It was the 100th anniversary so they couldn't mess around, it had to be good. It was also Veerasunthorn's first gig as director--Chris Buck was her co-director on that one. Maybe if Hexed is a success Disney will take the training wheels off. Still can't remember the 2023 movie? Here are a few hints. The protagonist was a pretty young woman. Alan Tudyk voiced a character. Give up?
It was . . .

Wish.
That's the name of the movie. I bet you still don't remember it.
I can't forget it. I still occasionally amuse myself remembering how bad it is, particularly the music. I think "I'm a Star" may be the single worst song in the history of cinema.
This morning I've been trying to imagine someone whose life isn't their own origin story.
Maybe Hexed will be better since it's a much simpler story. The YouTube comments are listing the number of other movies and series it resembles. Apparently it looks like something called The Owl House.
Oh, yeah, kind of. The character in Hexed has longer hair.
There may be some credence to the theory that Disney's using a lot more AI than it's disclosing. I almost think this stuff seems too mechanical to be AI.
I've been watching some of the horrible AI Star Wars videos on YouTube. The worst part of them is the pacing. Something about the length of shots and cut points feels so dead, so devoid of any interest in communicating a feeling. They do remind me of Ahsoka.
The strap of her bra constantly changes. At one point it changes when it just moves out of the shot for a second. There's also a split second at the end of the dance where her face suddenly looks very old. Maybe this is Carrie Fisher in Hell. Or maybe this is all of us in Hell.
