Ok for some god awful reason YouTube recommend this to me.
It’s a surprisingly well edited fan video shipping Jim from Treasure Planet with… I guess both Ariel and her daughter Melody???
The video starts off like it’s Jim x Melody but then the prince cheats on Ariel with Princess Odette from tge Swan Princess???and then he goes to. Brothel made up of Jasmine and Esmeralda and bangs Jessica Rabbit bc she looks like Ariel?????? Then prince Eric murders his wife and child the end.
Ok so let me break this down for you guys.
We begin with our protag, Jim Hawkins from Treasure Planet,
arriving on the CGI ship from Frozen to whatever town Ariel and
Prince Eric live in ok whatever.
Good honest Jimmy immediately becomes enthralled by the feminine
wiles of Melody, the 12 year old half mermaid
daughter of Ariel and Eric. Who is 12. Jim is 17.
They have some pleasant chit chat on the beach, as 12 and 17 year
olds tend to do. Then Jim, for some reason, is at the ball (birthday?
saturday night jam session?) for Melody because I guess 12 year olds
have balls in this thriving beach-side society of terrible merpeople
human hybrids. Jim appears smitten, gazing lovingly upon Melody’s
bitchin’ eyebrows. I wish I knew how to fill in my eyebrows that
good.
THIS IS QUICKLY TURNING INTO ROMEO AND JULIET AND I FEEL
UNCOMFORTABLE
Ariel, meanwhile, watches a 17 year old space drifter
flirt-bonding with her prepubescent child with the kind of sweet
nostalgic smile only a woman who has felt the touch of an older man
knows. The viewer appears to be only person in this universe feeling
concerned.
BUT WAIT. Trouble in paradise for Ariel as Jim witnesses Prince
Eric and Princess Odette, the vicious homewrecker, from The Swan
Princess(was that disney? i dont think that was disney?) sharing a
romantic moment in a super public place that isn’t very good for
infidelity you wanna keep under wraps.
Mr. Hawkins breaks the news to Ariel, in a tense sea-side moment
wrought with raw emotion and tension.
In a later scene Ariel joins Jim and Melody on the beach, where
she remembers her days as a hot underage mermaid. Jim apparently now
lusts after Ariel? Or did he not lust after Melody in the beginning
and it was suppose to be like a sister-brother kind of situation that
we where looking too much into? Is he in love with both an older
woman and a younger woman that happen to be mother and daughter? I am
still not resolved.
Ok so Jim definitely is in love with Ariel who turns him down,
despite having watched him lovingly from her window in a prior scene.
Jim has only one option…
Go to a brothel! Where Jasmine and Esmeralda are apparently supplementing their incomes with sex
work. Apparently disgusted by their hip swaying Jim’s attention is
drawn to…Jessica Rabbit. Who also lives in Little Mermaid Town
because why not.
ARIEL’S FUCKING FACE SUPERIMPOSED ON JESSICA RABBIT
In a confrontation with Ariel over her supposed flirting with Jim,
despite documented accounts of Eric’s own infidelity with a
human-bird monster, Eric absolutely loses his shit and
attacks Ariel with a fucking sword.
Then orders what I think is the Russian army from Anastasia to
pistol whip his daughter unconscious. I am not sure if Eric
thinks Melody is the hidden daughter of Ariel and Jim, even though
she looks exactly like Eric, or if he’s just totally insane. It’s
never really explained.
Eric has Ariel and his own daughter locked up in the dungeons,
teaching his daughter that if mommy is a dirty flirt you get the
shackles too I guess. Then suddenly I guess a fire starts and shit
get’s real for Ariel and presumably Melody.
Jim Hawkins bravely rushes to the scene, facing the fires to save
his mother daughter love triangle. Only to find that the flames have
claimed their lives and he is too late. There is no word about Eric
or the world-wide war between magical mermaids and humans he’s
started by murdering the youngest daughter of the literal king of the
sea.
Maybe the real treasure was the mermaid love triangle he found along the way.
besides the fact that there are random pieces of other disney movies (the cafe from princess and the frog, the library and the mob and the tavern from beauty and the beast), this is a WILD RIDE. and because it’s a wild ride i did a little research and this is JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG OF VIDEOS THIS PERSON MADE. not only are they non-disney/disney, but they’re all kinds of combinations, there’s MORE of ariel and jim, of melody and jim, and this person has a WHOLE WEBSITE just for these videos.
FIRST here’s the official plot summary of this beautiful video:
Storyline: Jim travels to a new kingdom, where he unexpectedly meets Princess Melody. The two immediately hit it off, and she even invites him to her party. Jim obviously stands out against the wealthy crowd, but he and Melody aren’t deterred by the constant gawks and stares of her peers as they join in on a dance together. The next day, Ariel sees her daughter hanging out with Jim. She’s happy for her, but a slight feeling of self-pity comes over her because she constantly has to bear the secret of her husband, Eric, who is having an affair with Odette. She remembers the day she found out about his mistress, and her happiness is replaced with sorrow and slight envy. One night, Jim happens to see Eric with his mistress, and he immediately grows to dislike the man for his disregard to his wife, family and kingdom altogether. Eventually, Jim comes across Ariel and he decides to befriend her out of pity. Ariel confides in him, and the two form a new friendship. So all three start hanging out together, mostly because Jim doesn’t want Ariel to feel left out due to her situation. However, as time goes on, Jim starts to see Ariel differently because of her maturity, sense of humor, experience, and confidence. Ariel starts to slowly fall for Jim too, but mainly due to the “hero syndrome”, and for the fact that she doesn’t feel lonely or neglected around Jim. Melody is clueless as to what is going on with her mother and Jim, and sadly, Jim would rather keep it that way to avoid hurting her feelings. One night, Jim decides to confront Ariel about their feelings for each other, but she doesn’t give in as easily as he hoped, so he leaves to vent his sexual frustration out at a brothel. It should be obvious who he’s sexually attracted to at this point because he goes for the redhead of the brothel (Jessica Rabbit), who clearly reminds him of Ariel. The same night, Eric confronts Ariel about her encounter with Jim. Ariel thinks its hypercritical of him to try and judge her on such things when he himself is having an affair. This angers Eric and so he has her locked away and his daughter attacked. This even starts a revolution, and a huge crowd of people break into the kingdom and fight back the monarchy. Unfortunately, Jim exits the brothel right after the fighting begins, and he tries to save Melody and Ariel, but he is too late. The palace had completely burned to the ground and their lives were lost. He finds a picture of them on the ground though and decides to take it for safekeeping…
Editor’s Note: So this story sort of went by fast and in a slightly different direction than I intended, BUT I think I got my point across. As I stated in my first preview, this video was meant to be a mixture of “Stacy’s Mom” and the film “Malena”. If you know both, then you might recognize some themes I followed from each concept. First of all, I know most of you love Jim and Melody, and I didn’t make this video the way I did to “hate on it”, I made it to tell a very complicated and mildly mature story. Jim does have feelings for Melody, but she’s still very young to understand some mature things like sex, intimacy or certain life experiences. Ariel, however, is a woman, and knows more about life than Melody would at this point, and Jim can’t help but be attracted to her in a mature, sexual way. Of course, it’s not just sex he wants from her, it’s just about everything she is that Melody isn’t yet. Sadly he starts to see Melody as a companion rather than a girlfriend. However in the end, his feelings for both may be different for each other, but he cared for them equally. So it hurt twice as much when he lost both…
there’s a lot to unpack here, but i’m glad we got it straight. now apparently people loved the video so much, that there are fandom controversies, and this person made THIS video to clear some shit up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vvcZQZ3d_M
my thing is YEA TREASURE PLANET IS GREAT BUT WHY IS JIM HAWKINS SUCH A PIMP?
please god watch these videos i mean look at this gold:
ok im back more then a year later to let you all know that the original video was REUPLOADED recently with A GODDAMN EPILOGUE WHERE JIM COMES BACK AS SINBAD
i regret to inform you all that this amazing editor’s website and youtube channel have been deleted and are now gone. how do i know this? because i did a deep dive into this part of youtube and im fascinated with it. the sheer talent for these ULTRA specific videos, the PANACHE………and now the star of the genre is gone. if anyone can tell me what happened to loveandheartbreak, the creative editing genius of our time, and why she’s suddenly gone and people are posting tribute videos to her, i would be forever grateful……the saga continues to unfold
this! this fucking video! I told my. friends about it once and they didnt believe me, but it had just been taken off youtube and it took me ages to find it. And then it became this wee inner pals meme. I’m so glad I have proof this exists but I’m also desperate to know what drama transpired.
