ডিজনি জগতের রাজকন্যা Does it bother আপনি that Pixar's first film centered on a female lead was just another "princess who wants more"?

Is that all they think viewers want out of a female lead? I would have liked a more complex concept
If you're tired of it...well, go watch Dreamworks, Ghibli, or something else.
"If you don't like it, go somewhere else" Is the attitudes of racists and sexists when someone complains about injustice in this country. Disney needs to learn to change as well.
I'm not saying this is great. But asking THEM to change, when there is a bleep-load of obstruction and societal influences in the way, is not likely. So that's why I was supplying everyone with alternatives.
"What feminists have demanded princesses that we've had? " Oh, yeah. Belle was created because Disney got blowback from its audience that Ariel wasn't feminist enough.
In the heyday of Frozen marketing saturation, Elsa was touted as the most feminist because "she didn't need no man."
What I said about Pruitt, obstruction, and societal influences that don't want change to happen? I'll totally stand by that statement 100%. You can't ask Disney who made shitloads of bucks off of Americans by providing "feel good entertainment" to suddenly start providing "the truth about female empowerment," when most of their business is "fantasy and fabrication?" Please. They would lose money if they started differing from what their audiences want.
disney and pixar are linked now, and it's weird to pick on brave for doing a princess movie when we eat up all the other princess movies disney puts out. i just feel like people use brave as a scapegoat for things that they accept in other movies without blinking.
and it's new ground for pixar anyway. it's certainly better than them recycling the odd couple roadtrip plot from toy story for the 56987857567th time.
yeah but she really wasn't. cinderella went after what she wanted way before that - getting that dress made and showing up at the ball were clear acts of defiance, an unmistakable middle finger to her stepfamily. maybe it's not as memorable as being a mermaid and selling your voice to a sea witch to become a human even tho daddy said no, but ariel fans need to chill - it's possible to love her without acting like she invented everything.
and jasmine is much more the prototype for 90s strong female character syndrome in other studios than ariel or belle imo.
I absolutely don't agree about jasmine. In fact I feel Belle has the strongest pull but we wouldn't have Belle without ariel- Belle was supposed to be the "improvement" on ariels character.
At the time, Pixar was highly praised for making unique, nuanced characters but also criticized for being highly male-centric so it was a disappointment when they went the "princess who wants more" route and followed the checklist for their first female lead. Not a big fan of inside out but yeah they are capable of making films with female characters who aren't just "princess who wants more" And it being successful.
And I agree with UN- Ariel did imo set the 90s standard for spunky rebellious girls but wanting more wasn't necessarily new. And Belle fits right in with the Classics, I think. she's just as idealized, feminine, and into fairy tale romance as them (even if she doesn't outright say she wants it for herself like Snow and Aurora).
