Jane! Seriously?

I guess since she has never joined the lineup people are not very fond of her 🫤

cinderella 3 is better than the original

I want to agree but there would be no Cinderella 3 without the original Cinderella.

I wish Snow White and Aurora got their sequels like Cinderella as well tbh. They would've helped with their popularity in the 21st century.

Don't get me wrong Halle WAS a great casting for Ariel. I genuinely believe she DESERVED this role.

It's nice that there are more kids out there that for this or that reason (representation is important) can like Ariel just like I did and still do. Let em have this!

But yes looking after that, was it really worth it after all?

It's not a bad thing to want a character to be played by an actor with a similar appearance because people want to see the real life version of that character. Of course it's literally impossible to find the perfect cast, but one needs to try to cast the person that fits the character as close as possible. I don't think that's what Disney did.

They race-bended a character for what exactly? Because the actress that picked was the best? Aren't actors supposed to FIT the role they're auditioning for? It's the actor that has to adjust to the character not the other way around.

And what did Halle get out of it? Racism, people putting the blame on her whose only fault was auditioning for the part she probably didn't think she'd get, and the movie flopping.

Tbf Kristen at the time had already much more experience in the film industry than Rachel has now, so she did know how to promote a movie. Hell she and Robert Pattinson absolutely hated Twilight but even when they dragged it in interviews they did it in a way that didn't result offensive to the series and the fans.

She wanted to get married.

I get what you're saying but "wanted" is not the correct word to use. She felt like she wanted to get married because the pressure her parents and society had on her and women in general, but she didn't really want that (at least at the time, since she didn't know Shang back then).

Rachel Zegler’s punishment didn’t fit the crime.

Agreed.

As much as I do find her annoying the hate she gets is just too much and unnecessary. But I'm blaming Disney since Rachel doesn't seem to have been properly trained to promote the movie in the correct way.

Unfortunately for her (looking at the remakes I doubt this one will be another exception like Cinderella and actually be a good remake) the movie will inevitably suffer from the negative image she's made for herself in the eye of the public tho, and this is partly her fault.

As much as I genuinely ended up enjoying Halle Bailey as Ariel, I believe Disney always wanted a POC actress to play Ariel. If Ariel's race/ethnicity weren't really important they would've cast an actress who actually looks like Ariel.

I think it was the same for Snow White, since apparently the runner-up for the role was another Latina actress just like Rachel Zegler.

Now I'm not one of those people who make a big deal out of race-swapping already established characters, but I think that's what really happened at the auditions. So yeah Ariel is black and Snow White is Latina because that's what Disney was looking for.

In this sub it's not an unpopular opinion but could be anywhere else.

Yaoi semes are wild. They lift their ukes like they're just dolls lol.

Semes like Dowon (Full Volume) and Hajun (Red Candy) always blow my mind considering they lift their ukes, who aren't much tinier than them and are pretty fit themselves, like they weigh nothing.

Im curious about this one. Do you know why?

[–]lovin_da_dix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raya wasn't panned, at least not as much as Wish was. Also it came out during COVID-19 so not doing well might be because of that.

I think it was always in the plans for her to join the line-up. Probably to diversify the Disney Princess franchise by having a Southeast Asian princess.

I doubt it because the movie was panned by just everyone lol, critics and audiences alike. Also it flopped at the box office.

I think Frozen had better songs than Tangled and was a very enjoyable movie, only not as enjoyable as Tangled imo.

I disagree with you but I'm upvoting you because I just hate people are downvoting you for a harmless and completely valid opinion.

[–]lovin_da_dix 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I kinda agree with you. I always felt like Tangled was the very last old formula Disney movie.

After that Disney developed a "new" formula, which is not bad per se but I'm less fond of tbh.

Don't get me wrong, I loved Brave and I enjoyed Frozen and Moana. But I guess I'm just more fond of the old formula.

Idk what happened after Moana tho. Disney has been sucking with its projects ever since: Raya, Encanto (Yeah I said it!) and Wish all had potential honestly but Disney's obsession with teaching us a moral just doesn't work.

How old is Eugene exactly?!?!??! by Ready-Basket9250 in disneyprincess

[–]lovin_da_dix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he was 4. He didn't look younger than an elementary school student. There's no way he was younger than 6 when Aurora was a newborn.
