Formerly directed by legendary animator Glen Keane, who wanted a new look that required new CG technology, but it [[Development Hell|took too long to perfect]], and the tone and plot details changed ''many'' times: the total production time of this movie is nine years. Disney initially wanted to cash in on the pop-culture-heavy ''[[Shrek]]'' humor from 2002, only to change the concept of the film again when the story and technology failed their expectations, and turned it into a more straight-forward fairy tale drama. When management changed, John Lasseter altered its development a third time, and we now have a romantic comedy that balanced the two, with a modern attitude. In this time, Keane developed health issues and he had to leave the project for a while. He came back to executive produce and supervise the animation instead and was replaced by Nathan Greno and Bryon Howard, one of the directors of ''[[Bolt]]''. It ended up having the second-largest budget of any movie, ever ([[The Other Wiki|$260 million]], behind only ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]: At World's End''), but is also Disney's second highest-grossing animated film (only ''[[The Lion King]]'' made more in the worldwide box office). In addition to its financial success, it was also acclaimed by critics. Moreover, it has grown remarkably popular among audiences of all ages, and is a strong contender for the most universally liked [[Disney Princess]] movie.

It premiered attached to the [[3D Movie|3-D version]] of ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]''.

Line 115:
* [[Conveniently an Orphan]]: Part of Flynn Rider's backstory. He started his life of crime because of wanting to change his fortunes after growing up poor.
* [[Cool Horse]]: Maximus.
* [[Costume Porn]]: Since the movie is CG, the clothes can be decorated and detailed as much as anyone wants to, and the filmmakers took advantage of this. The amount of detail that has gone into each character's costume in this movie is unbelievable. You can see fabric texture, weathering, tarnish on metals, seams (in strategic places) and the list goes on. Analysis on Rapunzel's outfit [https://web.archive.org/web/20140101115013/http://www.squidoo.com/disneys-rapunzel-costume here,] Flynn Rider's outfit [http://www.squidoo.com/flynn-rider-costume-tangled here,] and Mother Gothel's outfit [https://web.archive.org/web/20130723010739/http://www.squidoo.com/mother-gothel-costume here.] And despite not ''technically'' being part of her costume, Rapunzel's hair falls into this category as well, especially after Flynn gets the little girls to braid it. Rapunzel isn't the only character who has apparently had a lot of effort put into her hair, as Gothel's hair is also incredibly detailed - every little curl is in place, the shading gets greyer in different places depending on how long she's gone without [[Fountain of Youth|making herself look young again]], and her hair even bounces when she moves in certain ways.
* [[Creative Closing Credits]]: Hand-drawn animated scenes of Rapunzel and Flynn's adventure serve as a backdrop for the credits, which were animated by Shiyoon Kim.
* [[Crowd Song]]: "I've Got A Dream". Played with in that Flynn spends most of it staring in disbelief, then has to be forced into participating at swordpoint.

* [[Huge Guy, Tiny Girl]]: One of Flynn's earlier [https://web.archive.org/web/20130319161108/http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dgbEWpICCCE/TQrLg7jnYWI/AAAAAAAAATA/J55wEG936Ak/s1600/bastion-21+copy.jpg designs] (back when he was called "Bastian") was supposed to invoke this.
* [[Humans Are the Real Monsters]]: This is what Mother Gothel raises Rapunzel to believe, claiming that they are (to paraphrase) "selfish, cruel, and destroy any sunshine they find." [[Straw Hypocrite|Fittingly, Mother Gothel herself is the best example]]. Her dialog is full of [[Exact Words]] and double meanings.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: During the first "Mother Knows Best" song, Mother Gothel advises Rapunzel to "skip the drama." This, coming from the extremely over-dramatic witch as she strolls down a flight of stairs lined in candles. Several more from that sequence are on [[Tangled/Fridge|the Fridge page]].
