Fat Princesses Disney
Critics doubted that audiences would sit through an 83-minute long cartoon. Boy were they wrong. The film made four times the amount in ticket sales.Based on the Brothers Grimm fairy tale Schneewittchen, Snow White was a princess who lived in a castle but lived a miserable existence. Living with her stepmother (known only as “the queen” in the movie), she was treated as a slave wearing rags and scrubbing floors.Ironically, the girl stayed ever cheerful singing to the birds, made wishes in the water well and told tales to her feathered friends of how someday her prince would come to rescue her.When the queen’s magic mirror stated that her beauty had now been surpassed by the young maiden, she ordered her huntsman to take the girl out to pick flowers and then kill her. Alas, he couldn’t do the deed and told the girl to run for her life. After finding the small house where the dwarfs lived, she begged them to let her stay in exchange for household chores.After biting into a poisoned apple given to her by the witch, she fell into an “eternal sleep” but fortunately was woken up by “true love’s kiss” from a prince who just happened to be in the area at the time. CinderellaFirst appeared: 1950Talent and Strengths: Cooking, cleaning and sewing for ungrateful womenWorst Foes: Her evil stepmother and stepsistersVoiced by: Ilene WoodsCinderella was based on Charles Perrault’s fairy tale Cendrillon, and the movie helped turn around the fortunes of Disney, which was struggling at the time, but getting the film to the big screen took some time.
The Disney Princess Franchise is comprised of twelve Official Princesses and a number of associated heroines. This page lists and classifies both official and unofficial princesses and heroines. In the 2016 film Moana, Maui states that princesses have animal sidekicks. This has been evidently. Frustrated with Disney's tendency to typecast its princesses as straight. A fat Rapunzel and a Snow White with scars, looking cute as heck.
Work on it began in 1943, but by 1945 the film had been halted when the two head animators couldn’t see eye-to-eye on the project. One wanted Cinderella to basically throw a fit against her evil family and get locked up in the attic due to her actions, which is a far cry from the kind and gentle character she was.Similar to Snow White, Cinderella spent most of her life serving her stepmother (and her stepsisters) for her every whim.
At least none of three wanted Cinderella dead.Things started to look up when the king announced that there would be a ball that invited every woman in the kingdom to attend in hopes that his son could find a bride. With the help from the mice and birds, Cinderella fashioned together a suitable gown, but Drizella and Anastasia destroyed it and Lady Tremaine forbade her from going to the ball in a torn dress.Fortunately, Cinderella had a fairy godmother who whipped up a new gown, created a royal chariot fashioned from a pumpkin and turned mice into horses so that they could take the girl to the ball. Cinderella made quite the impression on the prince at the ball, but ran off at the stroke of midnight (due to her coach having an expiration date as the clock struck 12) leaving one of her glass slippers behind.The next day or so, the prince traveled all over the countryside to find the girl whose foot would fit in the slipper. When he arrived at Lady Tremaine’s home, Drizella and Anastasia tried their best to make their tootsies fit in the shoe, with no luck.However, Cinderella was able to prove that she was the shoe’s rightful owner and two ran off for their eventual honeymoon.Disney created two direct-to-video sequels, Cinderella 2: Dreams Come True in 2002 and Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time in 2007.
My book of bible stories audio. In addition, a live action version of the story came to theaters in 2015. Directed by Kenneth Branagh, it starred Lily James, Cate Blanchette and Helena Bonham Carter. AuroraFirst appeared: 1959Talent and Strengths: Sleeping and talking to animalsWorst Foe: Maleficent, aka the evil fairyVoiced by: Mary CostaPrincess Aurora appeared in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty based on both Little Briar Rose by The Brothers Grimm and Charles Perrault’s La Belle au bois Dormant.Featuring music from Tchaikovsky’s Sleeping Beauty Ballet, the animated feature was beautiful but cost a pretty penny to make — $6 million, making it the most expensive Disney film up to that point. When King Stefan and Queen Leah welcomed their baby girl Aurora at a most elegant christening (where she was betrothed to the baby Prince Phillip, the son of King Hubert, so the two kingdoms could be united forever), three fairies came to bless the girl with gifts.However, it turns out that the evil fairy, Maleficent, didn’t receive an invitation to the event. Still smarting, she gave a curse instead of a blessing stating that on the girl’s 16th birthday, she would prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die.To save his daughter from her eventual death, the good fairies worked their magic, but could only drum up enough power to reduce the death sentence to a deep sleep to which she would only wake up after a true love’s kiss (sound familiar?)To further protect his daughter, the king sent the girl to live with the good fairies in an old woodcutter’s cottage outside the kingdom and destroyed all known spinning wheels. Aurora grew up happy with her “aunts,” but on her 16th birthday, the girl managed to find the only spinning wheel in town, pricked her finger and feel asleep just as Maleficent had said.
While taking her nap, the prince was brought in to fight off Maleficent and kiss the girl of his dreams.In 2014, Disney created a live adaptation of the story titled Maleficent, which was told from the evil fairy’s point of view. It starred Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning. Disney is currently working on a sequel. ArielFirst appeared: 1989Talent and Strengths: Singing, finding baubles and getting into troubleWorst Foe: Ursula the sea witchVoiced by: Jodi BensonAfter Sleeping Beauty, it was a long time before Disney created another princess movie. Some have said that The Little Mermaid was “the film that brought Broadway into cartoons” thanks to Alan Menken and Howard Ashman’s work on the songs and score.
The film proved that audiences still wanted princess movies after all. The success of the movie lead to an animated series, two direct-to-video movies, a Broadway production and a future live action version of the movie.Based on a fairy tale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen, The Little Mermaid follows Ariel’s frustration of having to live under the sea when humans above the water have so many wonderful things to behold.One day while exploring in the water, Arial witness as attack of a ship.
One man is hurt and falls overboard unconscious. Ariel saves the man and brings him back to shore. The man, who turns out to be Prince Eric, is thankful to be alive and goes on a mission to find the girl with the beautiful voice who saved him.Meanwhile, as a way to get back at Ariel’s father, King Triton, Ursula grants Ariel’s wish to sprout legs and walk on land to find the prince in exchange for her voice.
This agreement doesn’t work out so well since when she finds her prince, she can’t communicate with him. Belle is a beauty, but she is also a bookworm and oddly doesn’t fit in. She is also not born a princess. The arrogant bully in town, Gaston, expects to woo the girl easily and marry her but Belle has no desire to do so.Meanwhile, her inventor father, Maurice travels to a county fair to show off his new invention, but gets lost along the way. Caught in a rainstorm, he seeked shelter at a hidden castle. As it turns out, it belonged to a spoiled brat prince who once ticked off a beautiful enchantress who turned him into a hideous beast until he could find someone who would love him.When Belle receives word that her father is trapped, so goes to rescue him and offers to take his place.
The beast agrees and eventually allows her to stay in one of the rooms in castle at the suggestion from his staff who have been turned into household objects because of the curse from the enchantress. They suspect that this girl could be the key into the beast becoming a man again.Rough around the edges, it takes a lot of work but eventually, Belle find herself strangely attracted the beast.
Then back in town, Maurice tries to get the townspeople to help him rescue his daughter, but nobody believes that she has been taken by this fictional beast. However, Gaston steps forward offering to save the girl and kill the beast. After a showdown at the castle, Gaston falls to his death off the castle and the beast seemingly falls to his on a balcony.
Belle rushes over to the beast, cries over him and states that she loves him. Then, magically, the beast is revived and changed back into a prince and the prince’s staff are all turned back into humans as well.The film was followed by two direct-to-video movies (Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas and Belle’s Magical World), a Broadway production and a live action version of the story in 2017 which starred Emma Watson and Dan Stevens. JasmineFirst appeared: 1991Talent and Strengths: Being able to see people beyond their outward appearanceWorst Foe: JafarVoiced by: Linda Larkin and Lea Salonga (singing voice)With music by Alan Menkin, Howard Ashman and Tim Rice, Aladdin became the highest grossing film of 1992 earning over $500 million worldwide in ticket sales and became the first animated film to reach that milestone.
It won two Academy Awards for Best Original Score and Best Original Song. Unlike her royal sisters, Jasmine served as a co-star rather than being the central figure in Aladdin, a story adapted from One Thousand and One Nights. The daughter of the Sultan, Jasmine disappoints her father by shewing off numerous rich suitors for a chance at true love.
Disquised at Prince Ali Ababwa (compliments of a blue genie) Aladdin comes in and sweeps her off her feet.Jafar, the Grand vizer of Agrabah, plots to become the next Sultan by marrying Jasmine but she isn’t interested in his offer. When Jafar finds that Prince Ali isn’t who he says he is, he exposes Aladdin’s identity in hopes of changing Jasmine’s mind, but it doesn’t work.After defeating Jafar, the Sultan sees how much Jasmine is in love with the former “street rat” and decides to change the local law to allow Jasmine to marry whom she chooses.Two direct-to-video movies followed the success of Aladdin as well as a weekly television series. In May of 2019, Naomi Scott will appear in the live action version of Aladdin. PocahontasFirst appeared: 1995Talent and Strengths: NegotiatingWorst Foe: Governor RatcliffeVoiced by: Irene Bedard and Judy Kuhn (singing voice)Unlike previous princess films, the movie Pocahontas met mixed reactions when it was first released. Although a real person, Disney’s Pocahontas was only loosely based on true events of the real Native American and instead presented a fictionalized account for her story trying to make the story more palatable.Although ticket sales were somewhat disappointig, Pocahontas still found its fan base and won two Academy Awards for Best Musical or Comedy Score and Best Original Song. Set in 1607, English settlers aboard the Susan Constant sailed to the New World from London including Captain John Smith and Governor Ratcliffe who really is only along to find gold.
Smith, like others on the ship, had his own preconceived ideas of what the “injuns” of this new land were all about. That all changes after he meets Pocahontas, a free-spirit who introduces him to Grandmother Willow and teaches him about the colors of the wind.But as Ratcliffe trail blazes his way through the land looking for gold and misunderstandings arise, a war is about to take place between the settlers and Native Americans until Indian princess intervenes and stops the fight.The film was followed by the direct-to-video sequel, Pocahontas 2: Journey to a New World. MulanFirst appeared: 1998Talent and Strengths: Crossdressing and battling bad guysWorst Foe: Shan YuVoiced by: Ming-Na Wen.
Disney’s Mulan earned both Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations and won several Annie Awards including Best Animated Feature. It was Disney’s second animation story inspired by a real person.Based on the Chinese legend of Hua Mulan during the Han dynasty and an invasion of the Huns, Mulan begins with the daughter of Fa Zhou trying to show her family honor be becoming the perfect daughter and winning the heart of an available suitor. Meanwhile, the Chinese emperor orders that one man from each family must join the army to defeat the Huns. With no male children of his own, the elderly Fa Zhou enlists in the army.To keep her father out of the war, Mulan cuts her hair, puts on her father’s army clothes and pretends to be a male soldier taking her father’s place. At the training camp, Mulan learns how to “be a man” and military skills.
She eventually leads her team to victory by using a canon to start an avalanche which buries most of the invaders. Then, when the Huns take over the palace, she battles Shan Yu on the roof.Mulan was followed by the direct-to-video sequel, Mulan 2. A live version of Mulan is expected to be in theaters in 2020. TianaFirst appeared: 2009Talent and Strengths: Entrepreneur with culinary skills and amphibian smoochingWorst Foe: Doctor FacilierVoiced by: Anika Noni RoseAfter years of computer animation, The Princess and Frog marked Disney’s brief return to traditional hand-drawn animation.
It was also the first “princess” movie to be set in the United States featuring an African American heroine. Unfortunately, the project proved difficult at every turn. During the early stages of movie-making, the original character was named Maddy (which seemed too similar to the derogatory term “mammy”) who worked as a chambermaid.Loosely based on the novel The Frog Princess by E. Baker (which was loosely based on the Brothers Grimm fairy tale, The Frog Prince), the movie was set in 1926 with a young hoping to open her own restaurant while working as a waitress at two different earteries.Meanwhile, after being separated by his parents, Prince Naveen of Maldonia comes to the city in hopes of marrying a rich girl. He meets Doctor Facilier, a voodoo witch doctor who promises the prince that he will make the man’s dreams come true, but instead, turns him into a frog. At a masquerade ball, the new frog mistakes Tiana for a princess and convinces her to kiss him to help him turn back into a man. She does and instead becomes a frog herself.
The two go on an adventure together trying to break the curse falling in love along the way. RapunzelFirst appeared: 2010Talent and Strengths: Artworking and frying pan fightingWorst Foe: Mother GothelVoiced by: Mandy MooreDisney’s 50 th full-length animated film, Tangled, featured the damsel Rapunzel very much not in distress. Taking nearly six years to produce at a cost of $260 million, Tangled is one of the most expensive animated films to be made.Fortunately for the studio, the film made $591 million in worldwide box office sales and was nominated for a number of awards. Tangled was more inspired by the German tale by the Brothers Grimm rather than being based on the original story. The story begins with girl with the golden locks locked up in a tower to keep her “safe” from the outside world as told by her “mother” Gothel. As it turns out, she was a princess taken away from her family’s kingdom when she was an infant due to her hair’s healing properties that help Gothel to keep herself young.On Rapunzel’s 18 th birthday, she asks her mother to be allowed to leave the castle, but again is turned down. MeridaFirst appeared: 2012Talent and Strengths: Archery, talking back to her mother and lyingWorst Foe: HerselfVoiced by: Kelly MacdonaldIn the Pixar film Brave, Merida was the first Pixar princess who was unlike any other Disney princess before her.
Brave was an original story inspired by the film’s co-director’s daughter. Despite winning the Academy Award, the Golden Globe and the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film, Brave received mixed reviews from theater-goers.Set in medieval Scotland, Merida is definitely the most Tom-boyish princess in the Disney universe. She basically throws a fit when she learns that she is to be betrothed to the son of the one of her father’s allies. She would rather die. She argues with her mother that she isn’t interested in getting married and even if she was, she wants to choose her own love interest.Upon meeting a witch in the forest, the elderly woman gives her a special cake to give to her mother that will change the redhead’s fate. Merida pretends that she baked the cake special for her mother and when the queen eats the cake, she turns into a bear. The rest of the story is sort of a buddy film with Merida and her bear mother trying to find the witch to help the older one return back to her human self and for Merida to learn how to be brave by telling the truth.
Elsa and AnnaFirst appeared: 2013Talent and Strengths: Making snowstorms and sacrificing oneselfWorst Foe: Prince HansVoiced by: Idina Menzel and Kristen BellLike Tangled, Frozen was only inspired by Hans Christian Anderson’s fairy tale, The Snow Queen. The film is the first Disney film to feature two princesses and has become one of the studio’s biggest screen duo since Mickey and Minnie.
Work began on the film back many years back with Walt Disney himself, but it wasn’t until 2011 that it began to take shape.Frozen was different from many other princess movies in a few ways. In the original tale, the Snow Queen is the villain. In Frozen, she’s a sister.
Elsa and Anna had happy childhood living in the town or Arendelle. Elsa learned at an early age that she had a supernatural power to create ice and snow much to her little sister’s delight. But when Anna accidentally gets hurt during an indoor snow screen created by her sis, mom and dad kept the two sisters apart so Anna couldn’t ever get hurt again.

It's really one of the top ones, IMO. They managed to give a damn rug personality. Without him, that movie would have been completely different. Plus, so many throwbacks to early Disney work. The Sultan is lifted straight out of old Sterling Holloway parts, the villain is old school scary bad guy, Iago is jungle book level fourth wall skirting. Of the second gen animated features, I think it's closest to Disney tradition. (though BatB did recycle animation.
Also a Disney tradition).
