Nemo's Gone Viral: Internet Asks, 'Where's My Dad?' - Disney Dining

TikTok users just realized that there's a musical based on Disney/Pixar's Finding Nemo (2003), and they've never felt more seen. A clip from an upcoming New Jersey musical production went viral instantly because viewers found hilarious ways to relate to little Nemo as he sadly sings, "Where's My Dad?"

The puppet musical stage show called Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond! was created in 2007 with music by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez (Frozen, Book of Mormon). It follows the movie's plot closely, taking audiences along Marlin the clown fish's journey to find his lost son somewhere in the ocean with the help of Dory, a blue tang fish suffering from short-term memory loss.

It originally opened as Finding Nemo – The Musical at Theater in the Wild in DinoLand U.S.A at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. "Reimagined and revamped" after the COVID shutdown, Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond! premiered in 2022 for Walt Disney World Resort's 50th Anniversary celebration.

Today reported on the NJ Brick Children's Community Theatre's production of Finding Nemo Jr. and the TikTok clip they shared. In the video, Domenic Innarella is the 12-year-old actor, singing voice, and puppeteer of Nemo. Check out the video below where he sings these lyrics from "Where's My Dad?:" "Where's my dad?/ I'm all alone. / I'm too small to be here on my own. / I swam away because I got mad. / But now I really need him. / Where's my dad?"

Innarella is so talented! And his performance is now a TikTok trend.

Social Media has recontextualized Innarella's "Where's My Dad?" to characterize their feelings in various life experiences, from visiting car dealerships to filling out tax forms. Here are some of my personal favorites.

1 – When the mechanic tells me my car needs more than an oil change…

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
