Back when i was a kid i was hyped for upcoming Disney movies so i can experience them in theaters with friends and family. Nowadays I'm hyped for Disney movies knowing more than likely there'll be another great Messed Up Origins video about it.
The Hawaiian language is easy to pronounce once you get used to it. You just pronounce each letter and the "i" is pronounced like the letter "e" is said if it is at the end of a word. And "W's" that are not at the beginning of the word are pronounced as "v". So Hawaii (or spelled correctly, Hawai'i) is actually pronounce Ha-vai-'ee, Ewa is pronounce Eva, but Waipahu is pronounced Why-e-Pa-Who (which is often shortened to Why-Pa-Who) and so on.
Hey Jon, I would like to request that you do a messed up origin series consisting of VeggieTales and how it's episodes differs from stories from the Bible.
That would be SO COOL 🤩🤩🤩 (Should that be a collaboration with Phil Vischer, Mike Nawrocki, and the people who made VeggieTales, or would Jon Solo at least need their permission? 🤔)
Love when I catch the drop early ❤ Also congrats on the baby news dude!! So happy for you and your growing family 🎊 I hope your partner is getting through the pregnancy well. I know that nausea kills 😅
I'm going to be honest right now when I see your true origin videos on folklore and mythology stuff is so much more I fought Head Over Heels madly in love with the true Origins that you do PS I'm still waiting for you to do The Monkey King part 2 origin
Hey Jon! 2 things: The Aina in Aloha Aina is pronounced like “eye-nah” There is an old Micronesian legend that has similarities to Maui and Te Fiti’s story. Like in the movie, in the Micronesian island state of Kosrae, there is an island that is shaped like a sleeping lady. The legend goes that a “Maui-like” trickster from the Marshall Islands visited Kosrae and became smitten with a local girl from there. No matter what he did, he couldn’t get her reciprocate his feelings. So, he resorted to tricks and magic to basically force her to fall in love with him. Because of the magic the girl fell for the trickster like a lovesick puppy and followed him everywhere and ofc the trickster got bored. So he decided that he’s going to leave the island and ditch the girl. She begged him to go with him but he used more tricks to get her to agree to stay. When the trickster left the girl’s heart was so broken she vowed to lay down to rest and said “I will lay here and wait for your return.” Hence the island shaped like a lady sleeping.
I really like what you're doing here because most people don't care enough or are not interested enough in history, culture, religion, or anthropology to find out these things. When I was younger and something like this caught my interest, I would take a day or two and go through a few libraries, encyclopedias, and the internet, learning anything I could on the subject. I'm glad that I'm not the only one, and I'm glad that there are people gifted enough to make these sort of videos. Most young people think that if it can't be made into a TikTok it's not worth knowing.
Hey, thought you might be interested in one of the more modern tales of Pele where she can be kind. Two guys were out drinking down at the beach and were driving back to town. The saw an old lady walking along the side of the road who was looking for a ride. They said, "Aunty, come come, we give you a ride!" The old woman got in, "You good boys, yeah. Thank you. You got one cigarette?" "Yeah, aunty. Here." They gave her a cigarette but when the guy started to look foe the lighter the old woman stopped them. "Don't worry, boys." She then pressed the cigarette to her palm that was now glowing bright red and lit the cigarette. The two guys saw that and were scared sober. They drove the old lady back to town and took here to a firestation and told her that the firefighter could call her a cab. The two guys took off home. The next day they went to the firestation and asked what haplened with the old lady. The firefighter looked at them and asked, "what old aunty. Last night the two of you pulled up and were babbling and pointing at me then took off. There wasn’t an old aunty with you." The drive from the beach have a lot of narrow roads that passes over some cliffs over the ocean. If Pele hadn't shocked them sober they might have died.
Walt Disney was a smart business man in the right time he basically took myths fairy tales and children’s books and brought them to the silver screen and created a company that continues to manage to keep up with the times. That being said I love your videos and how you take the children’s version and brake down the real stories of ware they come from
Dude, I sure hope the "safe space" jargon was mandated by the script from your sponsor, because, if not, I have serious concerns about you. 'Safe space" -- LMFAO!! 🤣🤣🤣
Lol my bad. I guess the term "safe space" has been commandeered by the ultra-sensitive who think the entire world needs to be their safe space, but it's been awhile since I've heard it used like that. I mean it strictly in the definitional sense. You don't need a Safe Space™ but I think everyone should have a space that is safe to explore their emotions. For some that space takes the form of a friend or therapist, for others its a rage room, and the ultra-stoic just have to retreat within. Hope that clears it up.
That's EXACTLY how i felt about the Kiwi population during my entire visit in 2005! A more loving, pleasant, friendly nation probably can't be found. It's part of the reason that the Garden of Eden was a trial run, & Aotearroa was the goal.
if so many myths share plots (aka Father sky coupling with Mother Earth) suggests these myths have a common origin.....names of characters and places have been changed according to the region and culture
The last message just cracks me. I had my [glass breaking] spoiler moment with Hercules way back when. It did guide me to the rabbit hole that is Greek Mythology - and later, the world. Now, whenever I see adaptations, I just want to spend some time zoning out to all those actual myths.
Jon Solo: I HAVE A DISNEY CONSPIRACY THEORY -Ok, so this theory is about Dumbo. I feel that Dumbo is an African Elephant, and that is why his ears are so large. I mean, he is in the circus, and it's obvious that all the elephants are Asian Elephants. Dumbo's Mom's name is Mrs Jumbo. We don't see Mr Jumbo, so, he may be an African Elephant. Also, the amount of real life racism between Asians and Blacks is also depicted in this movie. So, I always thought that Dumbo was an African Elephant, and that's why his ears are so big, it's just "over exaggerated" What do you think?
Thanks for all the research you do cause I'd never get through it all! It's so interesting to hear about the original myths & how they compare to each other & the new Disney stories. 🤔
People thinking you ruined their childhood by tell the real background are hilarious. Every single disney movie is so loosely based on its origin story, most that are extremely dark. The world we live in 😂
I always admired how you tell stories, especially because you’re digging in the origins of the stories which I am a fan. Keep up with the good work, I think Disney should hire you as an advisor. To make cartoons or animations better.
38:08 idk haven’t seen the trailers but I’m getting tired of sequels rehashing/ recycling plot lines. Just seems lazy why would I spent money to see a copy paste movie I already watched
1:18 I just Wana point out that the show absolutely did not paint maui's "help" as kind gestures and did make very clear his motivations(especially when Moana meets him for the first time and he ensures his titles are properly spoken" along with the narcissistic 'your welcome' song following
I haven't finished the video yet, but I grew up in Hawai'i, and know a lot of this lore already. I LOST IT when you made the comparison to Teeth! I wish I could see the confused look on peoples' faces that DON'T know. 🤣
35:13 - Thumbs up just for that courageous line. Why do hollyweird writers always do this...when making a sequel, they always poop on the original concept and make the whole journey in the 1st film worth nothing so that they can make a 2nd story. The while heroes journey Moana went on in the 1st film was to get rid of the curse on the land...so a 2nd movie tacking back on another or still cursed island gives me a headache...same with the Sequel Trilogy in SW, same with this new sequel to Gladiator, same with some much junk they write now a days. I live in Hawaii, so I will definitely see Moana 2, but I hope it is not junk.
15:02 so its cool to have a couple of RUclipsrs that show their birthday suits showing their nether regions, without censoring or anything, but you talking about something in w myth is crossing lines 🙄
Delight to hear the stories and familiar children's book images of ....Maui beating up Ra to an inch of it's life 😅 and that moment of hearing Papa's full Hawaiian name how is different in Maori. Many of the stories together, and yes nah your pronunciations are understandable which is 100% respect picking it up as much as you can. Algorithm gods have blessed us both today, kia ora
Jon: The creators of the movie didn't mean to be culturally insensitive... Also Jon: Continues to list every culturally insensitive Disney movie they've made 😂😂😂
i know in Hawaiian all the vowels have the same sound always, so if you know the xmas song, you can pronounce any hawaiian word, I cant vouche for the other island dialects.
Your a really good story teller with the gods and goddesses , unfortunately for them your a great dad ❤️and husband , I can’t wait to bless Matt with a me , ,,you inspire me

Doesn't betterhelp sell sensitive personal information?
Compare Jurassic Park (book and movie) please.
Betterhelp has a really bad reputation. They aren't trustworthy

That pic of Pele (I'm sorry, I'm not sure how to spell her name) as a volcano is seriously RIGHTEOUS
You got it right
Probably my favourite Polynesian goddess

Great idea!
Can you do a messed up origins on The Wonderful Wizard of Oz💚
Messed Up Origins request: The Messed Up Origins of The Wind in the Willows
We didn’t need a moana 2, and you're right about disney failing to deliver on anything the actual audience wants
I can't remember if you did it, but I'd like to know the origins of the kakamora, the little coconut-monkey things that fought Moana and Maui.
Love when I catch the drop early ❤ Also congrats on the baby news dude!! So happy for you and your growing family 🎊 I hope your partner is getting through the pregnancy well. I know that nausea kills 😅
Baby solo cup was already born
@ oh shiiiiiiiii 🥹 for realz?? So exciting. How wonderful 💕 Thanks for the update dude.
Honestly it's better to have this knowledge though im not gonna watch it im still curious so let's a go
Why are you not going to watch it?
I'm going to be honest right now when I see your true origin videos on folklore and mythology stuff is so much more I fought Head Over Heels madly in love with the true Origins that you do PS I'm still waiting for you to do The Monkey King part 2 origin

I hope it doesn’t suck 😭
What sucks is that their gods can die because of starvation of food.
Then they aren't gods
@@redzerterrawitz4430 I'm pretty sure Norse God's did too, so you're kinda wrong
IT DIDNT! It was great !!
It was ok

26:57 bruv 😂how did you grow a mustache so fast😂😂
4:02 he’s got dad jokes now
Can we get an episode on the trickster gods? No matter the mythology, there seems to be at least one
Jon please do a messed up origins of Nosferatu.
Awesome as always thanks ❤
Dude, I sure hope the "safe space" jargon was mandated by the script from your sponsor, because, if not, I have serious concerns about you. 'Safe space" -- LMFAO!! 🤣🤣🤣

@JonSolo I know, man, lol. I was just joshing ya. Giving you a hard time, for sure! 🤘🤙
Congratulations on your beautiful bundle of joy! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you for what you do cause Jon always shoots first!!! 👏👏🌹🌹💖💖
That's EXACTLY how i felt about the Kiwi population during my entire visit in 2005! A more loving, pleasant, friendly nation probably can't be found. It's part of the reason that the Garden of Eden was a trial run, & Aotearroa was the goal.
KIWIS ARE SO SWEET EVERY TIME
Can you please do Messed Up Origins of Encanto next?
Good comment, I agree with you I would love to hear about the origins of Enchanto.
Love your videos, including prerecorded
It’s nice to hear the true origin. Thank you Jon ❤🙏🏾✌🏾
if so many myths share plots (aka Father sky coupling with Mother Earth) suggests these myths have a common origin.....names of characters and places have been changed according to the region and culture
disney's Maui is not overweight. He's just really built.
very excited to hear u again

Kool video bro .... Love the lore aspect of these shows great job man
Man that shirt is straight out of Fear & Loathing 😂. Ed: BOTH shirts 😂
There's a Moana 2? 😮
Cab you do a "messed up origins" of my life? So I know what REALLY happened to me 😅
Please consider doing a Greek mythology Achilles video?
Jon Solo: I HAVE A DISNEY CONSPIRACY THEORY

Thank you for sharing
The welcome song hits different when u know the actual stroy behind them
Fantastic video as usual and excellent research
It's like dear Disney please do live action black cauldron 😊..... Thanks Jon for all your cool informative vids
Can you do Leo and Stitch and Hawaii myths
Lilo not Leo
Better help is not that place but make your dollar
Thank you
Just commenting for the algorithm ❤️
1:18 I just Wana point out that the show absolutely did not paint maui's "help" as kind gestures and did make very clear his motivations(especially when Moana meets him for the first time and he ensures his titles are properly spoken" along with the narcissistic 'your welcome' song following
Lol thanks for the Bionicles reference 😅
Video as soon as the brand deal is over: "The VERY messed up origins of BetterHelp"
I agree, knowing the true origins and facts about what inspired the movies makes the movies better. 😁
I'm going to apply for a job with Better Help. So many "therapists" have zero training anyway. You just have to listen to people 😝
Especially the ones on Better Help have loose qualifications. Good luck.
I haven't finished the video yet, but I grew up in Hawai'i, and know a lot of this lore already. I LOST IT when you made the comparison to Teeth! I wish I could see the confused look on peoples' faces that DON'T know. 🤣
I remember my stepdad coming across the first movie and he had concluded that Moana was about how the Polynesians went beyond the reef.
Soooo what’s up with the Goddesses of night father???
Origins of Jack Skellington!
I really should watch the first one. It’s only been out….umm, how long has it been out?😂
as a poly i respect that you own up to it alot of ppl dont
I never miss a video ❤❤❤😊
You can't ruin my childhood with stories I was raised on.
I didn't know Maori had a rolling R. I first heard the name with a Kiwis pronunciation that went something like... "Maay-oreh." lol
"but im from the Midwest dude." 😂
Omg I have had a nightmare about the lizard beast thing in the river's
this video coming out was my 11:11 wish
That was so weird when Jon popped up with a beard and mustache LOL Not expecting that.
35:13 - Thumbs up just for that courageous line.

I live in Hawaii, so I will definitely see Moana 2, but I hope it is not junk.
I still want to watch Moana too
Fun fact, I was doing a Moana puzzle when I watched this video ha ha
I hope it's good
I would honestly recommend not watching part 2 at all. They will most likely ruin it so bad you will regret watching the first one.
Can you do a video about Medusa's sisters?
What if she took the form of her grandma to help guide her
15:02 so its cool to have a couple of RUclipsrs that show their birthday suits showing their nether regions, without censoring or anything, but you talking about something in w myth is crossing lines 🙄
Can you do messed up origins of The characters from The nightmare before Christmas or just Jack
WILL STILL WATCH IT AFTER SEEING THIS 😂😂😂
Did Nemaka ever receive any punishment for murdering her sister?
I heard a story about Pele where she ended up in a battle with her sister which her sister wins
I see you earned a crystal skull vodka bottle!😂
I’m so excited
I really wish he would do the origins of Solomon Grundy I hope someone else can agree so we can get the video
I just had a Moana 2 ad
Do maya and the three
Delight to hear the stories and familiar children's book images of ....Maui beating up Ra to an inch of it's life 😅 and that moment of hearing Papa's full Hawaiian name how is different in Maori.

I am happy that you reveal the truth behind the fairy tales and myths. It is good to know how the stories are actually told, even if they are ugly.
Be like yup , better apologize
There’s a pillar of a goodness In London where she’s alone without her sisters , and I love the marvel cinematic universe
Jon: The creators of the movie didn't mean to be culturally insensitive...
Also Jon: Continues to list every culturally insensitive Disney movie they've made 😂😂😂
Interesting video. 😎
All bosses no damage
i know in Hawaiian all the vowels have the same sound always, so if you know the xmas song, you can pronounce any hawaiian word, I cant vouche for the other island dialects.
19:17 or to get away from the sister she pissed off. 😂😂😂😂
We need “The Messed Up Origins of The Mask” (Jim Carrey)
Your a really good story teller with the gods and goddesses , unfortunately for them your a great dad ❤️and husband , I can’t wait to bless Matt with a me , ,,you inspire me
Still going to watch but watching you ruin things for us is the best. 😂😂
HE'S NOT OVER WAIT. HE IS JUST MUSCULAR.
