they never have mother characters.
bambi's mom dies
no mom in cinderella, beauty of the beast, or sleeping beauty
nemo's mom dies
no mom in lion king
and where's keira knightley's mom in pirates of the caribbean?
anybody else noticed the missing mom trend in disney movies? is this intentional or is this the longest string of coincidences ever?

I never noticed the coincidence before but that is pretty odd. There is a mother in Toy Story 1 & 2 but no father that I can remember. There's also a mother in Dumbo and The Incredibles.

movies that are referrenced were stories written that way before Disney decided to turn them into movies. so can't really pin the blame on them for that. movies that can be credited to Disney, such as mulan, do have moms in them.

Well what about Sleeping beauty, you see her mom
Or Tarzan, there are the mothers in that
Toy story only has a mom
There is the mom in Mulan
Oh, and there IS the mom in Lion King it is the dad that dies.

if you'll notice, most of the momless movies that are referrenced were stories written that way before Disney decided to turn them into movies. so can't really pin the blame on them for that. movies that can be credited to Disney, such as mulan, do have moms in them.

there's a mom in lion king II...Nala (the childhood friend of simba in lion king..became his wife)...she wasn't shown a lot though...oh and the mom of kovu too....
i think the moms aren't concentrated in disney because the stories are mostly about how children should grow up like, what they should believe in...disney is directed at kids not at moms.

Sleeping Beauty's mom is in the movie. Simba's also.
Actually there's no Dad in Bambi. No Dad in Toy Story. No Dad in Monster's Inc.
