10 Most Downright Ridiculous Scenes In Movie History

7. Magic English Wind - Pocahontas

PocahontasWalt Disney PicturesPocahontas is Disney's attempt to cash in on the famous story, and contains a number of memorable songs and lovely animation for your enjoyment. Sadly, it wasn't as good as The Lion King, which was surprising to Disney, who originally conceived it as the bigger movie (and spent a lot more money on it). The fact that it's the worser picture might come down to the fact that many of its plot points are downright insane, including this weird one. If you're unfamiliar with the story, it's basically this: Pocahontas is a Native American lady who falls in love with a guy named John Smith, who has sailed with the English fleet to America to explore the lands. The barrier preventing these two from falling in love, of course, comes from the fact that they don't speak the same language. Cue the sound of wind, a voice saying "Listen with your heart," and suddenly they do. WTF, Disney? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sm0uR81AZhA
