Moana's opening minutes do a superb job of setting up the conflict at the core of the entire franchise. Though four years passed before a follow-up to Moana was confirmed, the first movie's subtle details reveal the ways in which it sets up Disney's biggest franchise after Frozen. From foreshadowing Moana connecting the ocean to the sequel's biggest twist, the prologue to Moana also establishes her split heart, which longs for the sea but has duties and ties to the Land.
