Changes

The Disney Renaissance had a major impact on millions of childhoods back then, and today. It also is enjoyed by millions of adults, who thought animation was only for kids. It also had several messages in the movies that started the push that turned Disney from the most conservative studio in Hollywood into the leftist company that [[Roy E. Disney]] described as “A rapacious soulless conglomerate always looking for the quick buck.”

In ''[[Beauty and the Beast,]]'' Katzenberg brought over Ashman to do the lyrics, which he wasn’t happy to do due to his AIDS getting worse, and may derail what he had planned for a movie he wanted to do, being ''[[Aladdin]].'' Ashman did it anyway, and had a major influence. He wanted the Beast to play a bigger role in the story, and he also wanted the inanimate objects to talk to have a more light-hearted tone. Hahn described “The Mob Song” which was used in the film’s climax as Ashman’s message to the anti-AIDS community saying that they’re basically Christians that are more against homosexuality than AIDS. Ashman never lived to see the final project, as he died nine months before it hit theaters. The film is dedicated to Ashman, and they put this message at the end of the credits. “To our friend Howard, who gave a mermaid her voice and a beast his soul, we will be forever grateful. Howard Ashman 1950-1991.” Other messages include more feministic messages as said by screenwriter Linda Woolverton, such as men being either mean or just oafs as shown with the Beast prior to Belle taming him, Gaston as he’s the film’s villain, and Belle’s father Maurice despite being loving, he can’t even save himself as Belle swaps places with him as the Beast’s prisoner, and him collapsing when he went out to break Belle free towards the end. The film received so much love, it got nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, but it lost to ''[[The Silence of the Lambs]].''
