    Egypt is 1,596 km away from Greece in OUR world. But they’re in a whole new world.

    I prefer to think they sang the song over and over again on the round trip and the movie just splices it down to one time through the song.

    In reality, these tortured souls rode through the frigid sky with no food or sleep for days on end with only the words of “a whole new world” to maintain their sanity. Their love was obviously forged through shared suffering.

      Lol just imagine thinking you’re going on a sweet spontaneous date only to start flying and realise you’ll be getting blasted by this hurricane force wind for hours

    You’re such a mathematician. Saying something is real because your calculations say its real. Eventhough the evidence that’s right in front of your eyes, clearly shows that they are stil alive and unscathed, they didn’t even appear to have noticed the immense speed that they were traveling.

    Clearly this is the work of aliens with a technology so advanced that our smooth brains can’t even comprehend the math necessary to calculate it. So that explains everything, you’re welcome.

    I was going to rip on taking a cartoon too seriously, but then I remembered getting annoyed at superwhy, which is an ABCs show for toddlers. They had an episode where they landed on Saturn, and it was sandy. I had a to give my then 2 year old an impromptu lesson on what a gas giant was and that her favorite show was fucking wrong. I was so irritated that an education show would do that lol.

      I just assume that it was time dilation due to editing. The actual journey was much longer. Don’t think about it too much cause then you’ll start to wonder how long that song actually is, and then you’ll start to question why anyone randomly breaks out into song to begin with, and how everyone seems to know the lyrics despite being complete strangers.
