Disney's Moana: Moana (ENFJ) *Spoilers*


Extroverted Feeling: Moana easily takes on the role as leader of her village, as their strength, as well as looks to others for guidance. She confides to her grandmother how she feels, openly scolds beings more powerful than herself, and generally is straightforward about her opinions. She tries to get Maui to open up to her so she can get to know him better, and offers him encouragement. She manipulates him into helping her by playing off his emotions (telling him humans blame him for what's happening to the islands, knowing he craves their adoration).


Introverted Intuition: Moana wants to let go of the way they've always done things on the island and search for a better way to find food for the village. Once she finds out her people were once voyageurs, she wants to know why that was, and dreams of returning to that lifestyle. She knows she was chosen by the ocean to return the Heart of Te Fiti (which she temporarily doubts, but after some encouragement from her grandmother [Fe] goes back to following her destiny). She correctly intuits what really happened to Te Fiti and that the lava monster won't hurt her.



Extroverted Sensing: Moana is ready for adventure and takes things head-on. She sails by herself with little experience, jumps out of a cave to catch up with Maui, does some impressive parkour when she retrives the stolen Heart of Te Fiti from the coconut pirates, and navigates around the lava monster to return the Heart. She uses what's around her (like biolumenscent algae to make a fake Heart to distract Tamatoa with) to work with. She is a little careless sometimes as well, like how her teasing Maui leads to the pirates finding them immediately, or almost getting seriously hurt when she tries sailing for the first time.


Introverted Thinking: Moana uses this one less, but she does question things Maui says, wants to know why he is the way he is.

(Late) Halloween MBTI- Disney's The Nightmare Before Christmas- Sally the Ragdoll (ISFP)



Introverted Feeling (Fi)- Sally is independent, and guided by an internal set of values that lead her to oppose the idea of adopting Christmas in Halloweentown, even though the man she loves is doing it, along with the whole town. She doesn’t present a rational argument as to why he shouldn’t do it, but rather is against it because it just feels wrong to her, though she doesn’t oppose her opinion on others. She doesn’t like the lifestyle Dr. Finkelstein has forced on her, but she still cares for him and rebels quietly when she can’t take any more. Sally has trouble telling Jack she likes him, instead showing her affection through acts (bringing him dinner and wine when he forgets to eat, helping to make his costume, going to save Sandy). She has a deep bond with Jack, even though she thinks he only sees her as a friend, and would do anything for him.

Extroverted Sensing (Se)- Sally is somewhat impatient, and is bored being locked up all the time. She would rather be doing something and be out with others in town and with Jack. She has a reckless streak, continuously sneaks out, fearlessly leaps out a window and gets herself torn up, and impulsively runs off to rescue Sandy (and gets herself captured). However, she improvises very well, pouring a fog potion in the fountain to try to prevent Jack from leaving and using her detachable limbs to get herself out of fixes or cause diversions, and is a talented potion-brewer. As nobody listened to her warning, she realizes she needs to take action herself.

Introverted Intuition (Ni)- Sally envisions a future of herself and Jack together, but is too shy about her feelings to work towards that vision. She gets a premonition of Christmas ending in disaster and worries about what Jack has gotten everyone into, though she can’t articulate to anyone why it’s true. She wants to enjoy the present moment of the Christmas preparations and fun (Se), but can’t shake off her bad feeling. While she is generally considerate of the future, she sometimes doesn’t see past the current moment (like a longer-term plan than just sneaking out of home all the time just to get dragged back home) or consequences (getting caught in Oogie’s lair).

Extroverted Thinking (Te)- Sally is very sensible. She reasonably tells the doctor why she wants to leave, pointing out he is perfectly capable of creating others like her. Unlike Jack, a strong Ti user, she doesn’t stop and analyze a situation; she just acts (creating foggy weather, going to save Sandy Claws so he can stop Jack, distracting Oogie). She acts on her emotions, and won’t just come out and tell Jack she loves him. She also isn’t always assertive with people when it would benefit her to be.


Note: I know INFJ is a popular typing, due to the Ni-filled “Sally’s Song”. I originally typed her as an ISFJ, then as an INFJ, then considered INFP. But I’ve realized she is definitely driven by Fi, and uses far too much Se in what she does to be an INFJ. Her Ni also isn’t as strong as a Ni-dom’s would be (Also, using intuition =/= an Intuitive. Sounds contradicting, but Sensors use their intuitive functions, too.).
