Belle is bright and wise, but she does a lot of stupid things, more than any of the other girls if you ask me. Not hating on her at all, but she does. Which annoys me because Snow is widely considered to be an idiot for the SAME THING Belle gets excused for- trusting strangers and doing things she was told not to do. At least Snow has the excuse of being young/sheltered and was trying to be polite, but it annoys me that Belle is seen as a genius and is older, so what's her excuse?
Cinderella is resourceful and the wisest (if you ask me). Jasmine is the most cunning and a logical thinker. Aurora lacks common sense sometimes but she still knows to not trust Philip right away and was going to get to know him first (and she is also curious in her way). I'm not sure about Tiana- she does dumb stuff too (trusting a voodoo queen, a talking frog, an alligator, etc.) and isn't an intellectual at ALL but isn't dumb either. Merida is crafty and bright but lacks wisdom and the ability to foresee consequences. Snow is very people-smart, commonsensical, even rather logical, and I truly don't think she fully trusted the hag. if she's stupid for her mistakes, so are all the others.
Belle's not stupid, but a lot of the others are smarter than her. Even Ariel who is criticized for being dumb shows more of a willingness to learn than Belle does, while Belle is always commended for how much she loves to learn, when we don't really know if she does. I think Mulan, Jasmine, Rapunzel, Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora and Tiana are all smarter than Belle.
I'm not going to comment on her panicking over a glove (she can't have only one pair, really) because I guess that was anxiety kicking in and because I think she has some feelings attached to it. When she ien't wearing them, she experinces a sensation of being uncomfortable and incomplete. I can't really explain.
But yeah, I think she's overrated in intelligence and that most of her decisions were based on fear and were ultimately illogical. I honestly find Anna to be smarter than Elsa, though still illogical in her own way- she's just a quicker thinker and a doer.
Diamela - But a creative mind isn't always a smart one.
that's also a really good point about Ariel I never even noticed! She is much more curious in general. Belle is only curious when it comes to excitement and things that interest her (notice for someone always called the curious princess she isn't at all willing to learn about her own town and its inhabitants and when she lives in the castle, she does the same stuff she normally does at home, just reads for fun), but Ariel wants to experience EVERYTHING in the human world and is willing to feel pain and heartbreak to do so.
It's pretty easy to paint a perfect picture in your head, Diamela. Also, according to the movie, Elsa's powers are influenced by her emotions, not by her logic (which doesn't make much sense, since as a supernatural force magic should not be explained by applying any knowledge of natural forces such as logic, math, science etc.). She was happy because she was free, and that it why she was able to create beauty rather than cause destruction.
EDIT:
@AudreyFreak: You make a good point about Elsa, but I do think her intelligence is almost completely book smarts. She mostly knows what can be learned. I did find Rapunzel to be very street smart, quick witted and resourceful too, with an added willingness to learn (or at least, keep herself busy by learning).
Let me find it. It was in my English textbook.
Although, it would makes sense with regards to Elsa's emotions. When she's feeling scared or sad, she doesn't act carefully or rationally, but when she's in a better mood, she can think more clearly (although excitement and logic don't usually go hand-in-hand, so my argument is kind of collapsing on itself).
BUT, if we're trying to explain how Elsa is able to create an ice castle, we really should question where the ice comes from and how her body generates it (although, if the movie had explained these, it would be less fantasy and more sci-if).
