00:00 "Because of you, Ralph, I'm now the most powerful virus in the arcade!"

00:07 Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the twists we never saw

00:11 coming in these animated films.

00:14 And there will be spoilers.

00:16 "Thanks guys."

00:18 Number 10.

00:20 The Donkey's Identities - Pinocchio

00:26 "Come on, let's have another!

00:30 And what's your name?"

00:34 A puppet's journey to become a real boy sounds like a heartwarming tale, and when Pleasure

00:38 Island is introduced, it seems like the perfect getaway for kids.

00:42 I mean, who wouldn't want to have fun without any rules?

00:46 Unfortunately, there's a horrific catch to this so-called paradise.

00:49 "You'd think something was gonna happen to us."

00:54 "Cautious.

00:56 Nah, fully."

01:00 Once the boys are lured to the place and make a fool of themselves, they're turned into

01:04 donkeys.

01:05 Yikes.

01:06 But it gets worse.

01:07 The former boys are put into slave labor.

01:10 Yep, every donkey we saw up until this point in the film is actually a young child.

01:16 Talk about a dark, cautionary tale.

01:18 "Ahhhh!

01:19 I've been double-crossed!

01:20 Help!

01:21 Help!

01:22 Somebody help!"

01:25 Number 9.

01:26 Roz is undercover.

01:28 Monsters, Inc.

01:29 A movie about strange creatures scaring children in order to get power for their city is bound

01:34 to have some plot twists.

01:36 "You're the boss, you're the boss, you're the big hairy boss."

01:44 While some of the twists are more predictable than others, the revelation of Roz's true

01:49 occupation is not one of them.

01:51 Who would have guessed she's head of the Child Detection Agency?

01:55 Always see of her is her grouchy disposition, particularly when Mike always fails to submit

02:00 his paperwork on time.

02:01 "Well, isn't that nice.

02:04 But guess what?

02:05 You didn't turn in your paperwork last night."

02:08 "He didn't?

02:09 I didn't know?

02:10 Pa-paperwork?"

02:11 "This office is now closed."

02:13 No one was expecting her to be such a powerful figure.

02:17 She definitely knows a thing or two about being undercover.

02:20 She really didn't lie when she told Mike she's always watching.

02:23 "Two and a half years of undercover work were almost wasted.

02:29 You intercepted that child, Mr. Sullivan.

02:32 Of course, without your help, I never would have known that this went all the way up to

02:39 Water News."

02:40 Number 8.

02:41 Vanessa - The Little Mermaid.

02:42 Leaving your sea kingdom to follow your dreams of being human can be costly.

02:47 Ariel is willing to do whatever it takes, including temporarily sacrificing her voice.

02:52 Despite the difficulty of communicating without her voice, Ariel and the human Prince Eric

02:57 begin to fall in love.

02:59 That is, until the mysterious Vanessa waltzes into Eric's life and enchants him with her

03:04 beautiful voice.

03:15 Except it's not even her voice.

03:17 It's Ariel's.

03:18 Vanessa also isn't even a real person.

03:21 She's actually Ursula in disguise.

03:28 The rest of the movie, we're wondering how in the world our OTP will get together.

03:33 Vanessa's appearance begins a crazy chain reaction of events that we could never have

03:37 predicted.

03:45 Number 7.

03:46 The Real Culprit - Zootopia.

03:48 The concept of predators and prey coexisting peacefully in one place seems like a dream.

03:53 Well, that is, until predators start to disappear.

04:05 Swindler Nick Wilde and police officer Judy Hopps are sent on an adventure as they investigate

04:11 how this is happening.

04:12 A crime investigation like this one is bound to shock us, but wow, we never could have

04:17 imagined who the true mastermind behind it all is.

04:30 Looks can be deceiving because the culprit is none other than the super sweet assistant

04:34 mayor.

04:35 Yep, their nerdy sheep had us all fooled.

04:42 Number 6.

04:46 Woody's Decision - Toy Story 3.

04:49 Ending a trilogy is hard enough as it is.

04:51 When wrapping up several characters' storylines, there's bound to be some unexpected twists

04:56 in an epic finale.

05:04 This movie follows Andy's journey as he prepares for college and figures out what to do with

05:09 his beloved childhood toys.

05:11 Of course, we all expected Woody, as Andy's number one companion, to go with him.

05:24 In a turn of events, the cowboy decides not to go with Andy, but to stay with his toy

05:29 friends.

05:30 Across these three films, it feels like we've grown up alongside the boy and his toys.

05:35 The emotional departure between him and his beloved items left fans completely shocked.

05:50 Number 5.

05:51 Koda's Mother - Brother Bear.

05:53 Being more compassionate to animals is a concept that some people don't understand, including

05:58 this film's protagonist.

06:00 The movie follows Kenai as he's turned into a bear after unjustly ending one's life.

06:13 Through his befriending of a cub, he becomes much more understanding.

06:16 Now, a person learning to see others beyond stereotypes isn't an unusual trope.

06:22 The craziest part is when we discover the bear that Kenai exterminated was in fact his

06:27 new friend's mother.

06:29 What?

06:31 The viewer experiences the secondhand shock, disbelief, and anxiety the characters grapple

06:46 with at this revelation.

06:48 Just when their friendship was thriving, the movie takes a drastic turn.

07:02 Number 4.

07:03 Rapunzel's Locks Get Chopped - Tangled.

07:06 Who wouldn't want long, luscious hair, especially when it's accompanied by mystical powers

07:11 that can create magic?

07:13 But because of her locks, baby Rapunzel is stolen by Gothel and locked away for 18 years.

07:18 Until dashing thief Flynn Rider enters the picture.

07:34 In a showdown with Gothel, a mortally wounded Flynn cuts off Rapunzel's hair in order

07:39 to free her from Gothel's control.

07:55 First it's shocking because her hair could have saved his life.

07:58 Second, one of her most defining characteristics is her hair, even in the original fairy tale.

08:04 To be stripped of that is wild to us.

08:06 But it just goes to show that looks aren't everything.

08:22 Number 3.

08:23 The Real Hero - Coco.

08:24 There's a reason people say you shouldn't meet your idols.

08:28 Despite his family's ban on music, Miguel can't stay away from it.

08:32 In an accidental twist of fate, the preteen is cursed and transported to the land of the

08:37 dead.

08:43 During his journey back to the living, he meets his favorite musician, Ernesto.

08:53 We're all happy that he gets to hang out with the legend who inspired his love for

08:58 music.

08:59 Well, that is until we discover Ernesto poisoned Miguel's great-grandfather and stole his

09:04 work.

09:05 We can't believe this celebrity is a straight up fraud, and he's the reason Miguel's

09:09 family has such a bad relationship with music.

09:12 That's too much to unpack.

09:27 Number 2.

09:28 King Candy's Backstory - Wreck-It Ralph.

09:31 In Disney films, it's usually clear who the villain is.

09:34 This movie takes a new approach as it follows a video game antagonist who wants to shed

09:39 his evil image.

09:49 We're all rooting for the fella as he journeys to Sugar Rush, a game that's ruled by King

09:53 Candy.

09:54 But in a twist, the king is actually Turbo, a whole other character from a game that was

09:59 discontinued because of his ill intentions.

10:11 He doesn't even have the authority to rule over this game.

10:15 It's shocking the lengths Turbo takes to ensure he maintains his power.

10:19 And it's insane how many characters were impacted by his shenanigans.

10:48 Number 1.

10:49 Hans is the villain.

10:50 Frozen.

10:51 Talk about a romantic duo.

10:52 They even finish each other's sandwiches.

11:03 Who doesn't love a good love story subplot?

11:05 It's the perfect balance as the characters rush to find Queen Elsa to restore the state

11:10 of their kingdom.

11:11 Well, lo and behold, Hans was just love-bombing Anna because he's the real villain of the

11:16 movie.

11:25 Seeing Anna and Elsa's grandfather turn out to be the bad guy in Frozen 2 was shocking

11:30 enough, but the Hans reveal still takes the number one spot.

11:34 Anna is so sweet and loving.

11:36 Seeing her fooled by the man we thought was her soulmate was heart-wrenching.
