Oh yeah, this plays while its all going down, because of course it does
I've seen moana, I thought it was kind of cool how her grandma's death didn't necessarily mean her "end" and that she lived on in spirit. Kind of reminds me of the end of the lion king where they use the wind to represent Mufasa's spirit. Kind of like teaching kids that death isn't the end and our loved ones spirits will always live on in some way or another.
But I agree, Disney movies can be tear jerkers and can definitely make you question "why is that in a kids movie?!" but the pokemon movies are no better..
Bambi aye? That one never made me cry but I do remember asking my mum not to listen to Dolly Parton's Letter to Heaven when I was really young because it made me cry... Apparently a lot of things make me cry... Wow, I'm more of a sook than I thought haha
