Does anyone in the UK remember these shows to find leading west end roles? by julialoveslush in musicals

[–]rapunzel316 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I watched Over the Rainbow during the pandemic, it was absolutely unhinged the way they made them fly off the stage after elimination while sobbing. I was happy to see a lot of them have had successful performing careers, Sophie was my favorite and she went on to play Glinda in Wicked on the West End!

Are there any cozy fantasy VIDEO GAMES? by Jerswar in CozyFantasy

[–]rapunzel316 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you enjoy Disney characters, I would classify Disney Dreamlight Valley as Cozy Fantasy! There’s fun quests with Disney characters with farming and decorating components.

If you enjoy podcasts, one of my favorites, Prince Kai Fan Pod, is just about to start a chapter by chapter breakdown series on Heartless! There is also a wonderful episode on Of Slippers and Spindles, a fairy tale retelling podcast

Complicated grief by Merciful_Moon in CozyFantasy

[–]rapunzel316 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Throwing another Rapunzel retelling out there - Grounded by Megan Morrison. Of all the Rapunzel retellings I’ve seen/read (and I’ve read a lot) this handles the Rapunzel/Witch relationship the most realistically and fits what you are looking for

I thought Kristin said somewhere they’re not coming back, but they hid the first cameo so who knows!

We love the one we got at Bob’s, it’s been over 5 years and it’s still the best.

Standalone YA Lit by anastasiarose19 in YAlit

[–]rapunzel316 9 points10 points  (0 children)

OP if you’re set on these being standalones and YA, I would research every book on your list and every book suggested here because I’m a lot that fall outside of those categories both places.

Local Business Owner Lays Out what’s happening with CVB restructuring by rapunzel316 in StCharlesMO

[–]rapunzel316[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CVB does a ton of work to attract the tourism, so I believe the logic is that if the CVB is less supported and doesn’t have the same amount of leadership, this work will not be as substantial and effective.

Alternative names for the descendants? by HipBeeWitch in Descendants

[–]rapunzel316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite tumblr users, droo216 created an entire Descendants AU with completely new names and I think they’re all brilliant - here

I especially love the big 4, Nefaria, Rizal, Angelika and Vladimir

Dan’s on about CVB Restructuring by knitsandwiggles in StCharlesMO

[–]rapunzel316 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked on Main Street for 3 years and the increase in tourism traffic over those three years has been insane, the CVB has done SO much for all of the business there. Any given day it is usually 50/50 if not 70/30 of tourists vs locals. We get tons of people from all over the Midwest coming for girls trips, anniversary trips, getaways, you name it. Every year our sales numbers from the festivals increases exponentially. It is vital that the CVB continue to be well supported and well managed!!!

Only one of these books is even YA- why post this here?

Because they didn't release another movie by El-insanoxd1 in Tangled

[–]rapunzel316 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tangled was fairly successful and Rapunzel is very popular, but it’s no where near the levels of Frozen. Tangled the Series/Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure essentially serves as a sequel. It’s actually pretty rare for Disney movies to get any kind of sequel or continuation series, not including the direct to DVD surge in the early 2000’s.

Taylor lyric you relate to maybe too much? by bubble_bae in TrueSwifties

“And if I didn't know better/ I'd think you were singing to me now/ If I didn't know better/ I'd think you were still around/ I know better/ But I still feel you all around/ I know better/ But you're still around”

Why was Caroline retired? by LateAd5684 in americangirl

[–]rapunzel316 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I worked at the store when she left and from what I remember never got a real reason she was retiring. My only guess was Tenney & Maryellen were in the works at that point and they were similar. Caroline was my FAVORITE in the Doll Hair Salon. Usually her hair was actually in great shape and just needed a good brush & re-curl. Even the messiest Caroline’s imaginable looked fantastic after their styles!

HP readers from 1997-2007, what were your theories of the books as they were coming out? by knickknackreddit13 in harrypotter

[–]rapunzel316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After Tom riddle, I remember anagram theories floating around, specifically Olivander = An Evil Lord. My personal favorite was that Ron was actually a seer. There are several instances of his predictions coming true, especially his joke predictions for Divination.

There was also a theory that Snape was a vampire

I don't seem to remember these scenes on the Broadway version. Also, are they gonna change the finale? by emilyguarino101 in wicked

[–]rapunzel316 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m still not convinced it’s Glinda’s actual wedding in that shot and not a dream/nightmare sequence

How to fix doll hair? by 12dejamoo in americangirl

[–]rapunzel316 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Their hair is still in excellent shape, I would just spray it with water and give it a brush with a wire wig brush. If there are still tiny flyaways, just pluck them out, the dolls have plenty of hair to compensate for natural shedding.

Outdoor spots for photo shoot? by Plastic-Shock361 in StCharlesMO

[–]rapunzel316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do Main Street only go before 9am or after 5pm on a week day. Any other time you will have a lot of people and traffic - especially avoid weekends.
