Hello everybody! Felt that লেখা bug back in me, and the one প্রবন্ধ I've noticed I haven’t done yet is the ডিজনি Princess চলচ্চিত্র of course! And with our latest addition Moana. Hope আপনি all enjoy, after all these are just my opinions.
12. Brave
I don’t know why, but I’ve never really liked this movie. I’m not very knowledgeable on Scottish mythos অথবা culture, so I was excited to see it, but it turns out that there just wasn’t enough magic in charm in it for me. I really liked that it was a classical story about a witch, a princess, and a spell, but going to the movie really didn’t n’ live up to my expectations. The অ্যানিমেশন is spectacular of course! পিক্সার has a nack for absolutely stunning imagery and attention to detail. But সামগ্রিক the movie was very dark and grey, and I felt didn’t utilize its potential fully. A big part of the ডিজনি princess fanshise AND, to my knowledge, Celtic culture is the dresses, and the patterns, yet Merida is put in these boring outfits, even as the anti-girly-girl, she could still have the beautiful artwork of the Scotts in there. I didn’t see a point to her blue-black underdress, it makes her blend into the background, while every other ডিজনি Princess gets to stand out in her movie.
The plot is ok, I really don’t mind it, it’s very charming and I like the message at the end. I think that the narrative flows well, and all of the characters are understandable, if not all likable. Everything makes sense, and I like the “Legend of Mor’du” aspect. সামগ্রিক it’s just kind of mediorce and somewhat forgettable, unlike all the other princess that I think tend to be আরো iconic. It’s not a bad movie in the slightest, it’s just not to my taste. In fact I probably have আরো strong মতামত on the চলচ্চিত্র I placed higher than this one than ব্রেভ itself. There’s something here, it’s just not executed in a way that I can মতামত on and dissect which is half of the fun when watching a movie. I’m not invested in it, so I can’t really প্রণয় it অথবা hate it. It just kind of sits on my shelf collecting dust.
11. Mulan
I feel like I’m really going against the grain with this one. Everybody loves Mulan, and I প্রণয় মুলান as a character, but I don’t really find much interest when it comes to the plot. I like nearly everything about the movie though. All the characters are very vibrant and fleshed out. I প্রণয় the costume design, they stayed true with Chinese culture, traditions, and customs. I especially প্রণয় the matchmaker scene. It was hilarious and gave us a lot of insight into মুলান as a person and the society she lives in.
I think the part I like the most about মুলান is the societal elements and the conflict মুলান has with fitting in. Her working off her parents and standards in her community is the highlight of the movie, and probably why I become I bit bored when it comes to the war stuff. Obviously that’s the plot of Mulan, she goes to war, and how much she dispointed everyone in her society, she earns their immense gratitude and praise later on. It’s a good message and has the right amount of weight of challenge in her convictions. To me, though, the plot drags as soon as it gets to the war camp grounds. It’s her trying to fit it and failing all over again. I understand that she has the grow and develope, but it begs the প্রশ্ন why she couldn’t try hard and excel in her role back home. Why is this different? I guess she does put আরো effort into it because it’s her father reputation on the line, but if she just went প্রথমপাতা when she was sent প্রথমপাতা she would’ve still saved her father from having to enter war. I suppose that’s আরো of a plot device than any legitimate critics though.
I understand that it takes time to excel in something like combat, but the war was fairly boring to me, the villain was one-dimensional and while the movie told us that the villain was a real threat, it wasn’t really shown. There wasn’t anything dynamic enough to have interest in and wonder whether they’d win অথবা lose. With Jafar, I’m invested because we see his role in the palace, his intelligence and how he poses and legitimate threat to আলাদীন and the kingdom in general. The audience knows how dangerous he is, and how there’s a chance that he could win, but Shan Yu is just some big hulking scary guy that we are supposed to assumed can and will take over China. There just isn’t any real depth to him, and because we spent such little time getting to know the characters in China, we don’t have much gravity to why we should care about the final fight. I feel like all these iconic things happen in the first 15 minutes, like the matchmaker, the hair getting cut, the announcement of the draft, and the introduction of Mushu, then from then on it’s just like ‘difficult situation’ 5 মিনিট later ‘mulan fixes it’ even the climax feels that way to me.
I প্রণয় all it’s elements except for the plot. It’s really interesting stuff and material it just need slightly better execution. Which is why while I don’t necessarily approve of the ডিজনি live-action remakes, I’m curious to see the new ways they do the মুলান story, especially since it has many variants, just like Cinderella. I have some strong feelings about it, but I do think in general and over all it’s a good movie.
10. Cinderella
Speak of the devil! Another story with a lot of variations. I’m sure almost everybody পাঠ করা this প্রবন্ধ can think of their পছন্দ সিন্ড্রেলা movie. After all there’s been so many, from Rodger’s and Hammerstein’s, সিন্ড্রেলা Man, Cinder-Fella, Another সিন্ড্রেলা Story, Ella Enchanted. The তালিকা goes on, and they just keep making আরো of this story! As many different adaptations of this story, I feel like ডিজনি animated one is দ্বারা far the most well-liked and widely know. It has this classic charm to it, that audiences everywhere really latched onto. The only problem with the movie, I feel is there’s just not a lot going on. It’s very slow paced, and a lot of its entertainment is derived from the mice, rather than the subject of the movie herself, Cinderella. It’s mostly মাউস shenanigan filler that takes place during the story of Cinderella. That being said, it’s very charming, as well as being a ডিজনি পপ সংস্কৃতি classic. I remember watching it on repeat as a child. I can’t bring myself to put it any lower because it’s such a sweet and simple film.
9. Tangled
ট্যাঙ্গেল্ড is what I’d like to call a new-age classic. Everyone fell in প্রণয় with it at first sight. I can’t hardly blame them, because it was a really unique and subversive movie for the time, especially to come out of ডিজনি অ্যানিমেশন studios. The plot as well, was a unique story of the classic Rapunzel fairytale, that I think was executed in a way that actually makes আরো sense that the original. There’s nothing but positive things to say about Tangled. Not only is the heroine a perfect role-model, but the art and plot are solid. It really was a great thing to see in theatres, and I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t like it. I think the only problems I in particular have about it, is the music. I’m not a big অনুরাগী of it, I could do without it, অথবা I could do with a different genre. But other than that complaint, there isn’t much else to say. Rapunzel is a good movie, but for some reason I doesn’t tend to be my favorite.
I think it’s rooted in that I don’t necessarily like the protagonist, her as a character is in a similar placement on my ডিজনি Princess তালিকা as well. Something about her and her story seem too perfect to me. I like the movie, I probably will watch it many আরো times in the future, but nothing about it grabs me অথবা caters specifically to my interest, which I be,wife I why I have it at this placement, despite it being a wonderful film.
8. Sleeping Beauty
This film is purely magical. I’ve always like it, for আরো of the darker elements, the art style, and the epic plot and villain. The climax is one of the best out of the classic ডিজনি era that has a theme of avoiding grand big climax scenes for some reason. I think sometimes people discredit it for being fairly cookie-cutter plot, and follows the basic progression of a movie without giving their characters much depth. But for the time, it was one of Walt Disney’s most dynamic and theatrical movies. It felt very traditional, but ultimately very heart-warming, and what it lacks in character building it makes up everywhere else. The plot is wonderful, the সঙ্গীত is gorgeous, and I adore the art style. It’s fairly standard, but I don’t see much wrong with that especially with is really intense and dramatic villain. Maleficent is দ্বারা far one of the best parts of the entire film. And for that, I can commend it!
7. The Little Mermaid
It’s a ডিজনি classic, much like others such as Cinderella. It was a complete game changer for the company and a delight to watch over and over again as a kid. This isn’t to say that it isn’t without flaws, but it’s the staple for Disney, I feel. It’s one of their best sellers for good reason. The plot really gets আপনি invested, there’s never a dull moment where it seems too predictable. I feel like it’s one of those চলচ্চিত্র that everyone has in their video collection. The সঙ্গীত is outstandin, Alan Menken is truly talented, along with the voice actors and নায়িকা just putting on a fantastic performance. The villain is how আপনি should really do a villain, with a clear motive, and persuasion that begets conflict.
I’m not a big অনুরাগী of much of the other characters, but they are functional and believable as characters, all of them are charming, endearing অথবা redeemable in their own right, and everybody gets a happy ending. It’s a feel good film, and I can’t help but really like it. I have a lot of problems with the protagonist Ariel, she happens to be my least পছন্দ princess, but looking solely at the movie she fits right end, and there’s a satisfying and magical ending for everybody. A true ডিজনি classic.
6. Pocahontas
This is most definitely a personal favorite. Growing up, Moana had not yet come out and there weren’t many princesses of color I could see myself in. Pocahontas really filled that role for me, and I ADORED her hair. Now that I’m older, while I can see and acknowledge its flaws, I tend to forgive অথবা look over them. I think Pocahontas as a movie has a very strong narrative and some dynamic and beautiful elements to it. I will forever be in প্রণয় with the soundtrack, Judy Kuhn’s voice is to die for. The animations is slightly আরো realistic than most, but absolutely beautiful for it. I can also really appreciate that while the production of such a glorified story itself is egregious, I like that it took the time to add a lot of core elements to Native American culture, customs, and language.
I like the portrayal of Pocahontas and her role as the strong and noble leader. I like the turmoil and conflict her character has to go through, and I like the conclusion in the end. As তিক্ত sweet as it is, I like that she takes the path less travel as always, for the sake of her people, and that there is still some mysticism in the world around her. The visuals themselves are great at portraying that as well, the thematic approach to color in this movie is one of my all-time favorites. During the ‘Savages’ bit my হৃদয় can’t help but race, and I feel a great surge of emotional investment in the conclusion no matter how many times I watch it. It’s truly a poetic film, whether done poorly অথবা not. It will always be one of my favorites, even if it does cater to the fanatism of great romantic classics rather than reality.
5. Beauty and the Beast
Is there anyone on planet earth that doesn’t view this movie as truly the tale as old as time? It’ gorgeous movie with a lot of mood and gravity to the decisions and actions in it. The সঙ্গীত as well is also fantastic and very broadway classic, it’s not wonderit was almost instantly made into a production in New York. As one of the only animated চলচ্চিত্র to winx a best picture Oscar, I think this placement is appropriate. That’s all I really have to say about it, it’s very much so a seemless and irreplaceable movie in Disney’s atrociously large legacy.
4. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
It’s boring, it’s down right dull and predictable. The অ্যানিমেশন isn’t much to look at either. And the characters are completely one-dimensions with Snow White probably being the definition of a Mary-Sue. So why do I absolutely প্রণয় it so much? I honestly couldn’t tell you, it’s not as if it’s anymore iconic than the others, and being ডিজনি first feature production it has a lot of clear and obvious flaws. Much after the main conflict begins, e.i. the evil queen, Snow White meeting the prince, magic mirror, and huntsman trying to kill Snow White, after all of this happens there’s a lot of sitting around and being cute. Some animal antics, some cute songs, some funny situations, albeit at least focusing on the main character, but there isn’t much going on. In my ডিজনি Princess article, I don’t really have much reason for liking her as a character either. As a joke I put “she hates apples too,” as a reason for having her so high in my DP তালিকা article. It doesn’t even come from a childhood fondness, because growing up my পছন্দ were জুঁই and Aurora.
I have no idea why I simply like Snow White, অথবা her movie. I find the movie, simply charming? It may contain a lot of nonsensical plot, but it never feels like a drag, we’re always aware of the evil কুইন and her intentions, and we’re always invested in the outcome of Snow White’s plite and conflict. Despite there being nothing really of value unless it’s the beginning অথবা the ending, I like it! Maybe because of the aesthetics, অথবা maybe because of the music. Whichever it is, I’m আরো than happy to watch this with the পরবর্তি generation. This will never get old for me.
3. Princess and the Frog
This movie is outstanding! I found it just as Disney-esque as any of the undeniable classics, like Little Mermaid অথবা Beauty and the Beast. Admittedly, though I prefer stories that are “long পূর্বে and a land far far away” a bit আরো fairytale-like. And that’s what I had hoped for this movie when I found out ডিজনি was doing an adaptation. I was actually quite disappointed when I found out it’d take place in America, and New Orleans at that. But when I saw it in theatres, I really came around to it. The characters were interesting, dynamic, and I was involved in the story like, the voodoo aspect was especially creative and unique and I could appreciate the stylization and liberties taken throughout the movie. The only part where it fell flat আরো me was probably আরো of the bayou scenes, where we meet a cliche “zany and funny” character along the way in our adventure.
I didn’t like how Tiana was a frog most of the movie either, it really ruined the representation being made. Even though, I think this, I also think that Tiana is wonderfully well-done character. She’s very strong willed and introverted, she has a one-track mind, and I think that’s why it’s so interesting to see her be thrown in to this adventure, because it’s so conflicting with her personality. What she wanted to be a simple solution gives her আরো problems and growth than any job she ever had did. I think there’s something to be admired there, a work-aholic princess, who’s princes brings out the best and her, and they both realize the compromise between having goals as purpose and having fun. The message is beautiful, while also being authentic to the time period, and really a great African-American example and mixing what it was like in the 20s, with a little fairytale magic. I just প্রণয় this movie, I could go on about the characters, the plot, the animation, and so on, but I think it’s already been said. It wasn’t a block-buster hit, but anyone who has seen it has nothing but good things to say. I প্রণয় this movie, it’s one of my all-time favorites.
2. Aladdin
Speaking of all-time favorites. I’ve also made allusions to this movie when discussion other movies, it’s hard not to compare them to this one, when this movie does a lot of things so much better than most. It really is a great example of an epic ডিজনি film. From the animation, to the songs, to the characters, all of the are unforgettable. It’s right up there with all the other great adventure movies, if not the best one. I প্রণয় the magic, the genie, the plot, everything is a 10/10. The creators at ডিজনি made a high-quality classic, and while at times it can তারিখ itself with (shivers) পপ সংস্কৃতি jokes of the past, it still holds up as an act দ্বারা act movie. With development and fully-fleshed out characters and ideas. What could শীর্ষ it I wonder?
1. Moana
I feel like such a betrayer of classic অ্যানিমেশন for having this one up as my number one! But in my eyes, it simply can’t be beat. It took all of the tropes that are done well in other ডিজনি চলচ্চিত্র and flipped them completely upside down and on its head. I obviously প্রণয় the Polynesian culture, as it is my own. And I like the myths they chose to incoperate in this story. I couldn’t help but cry at the tremendous effort of the ডিজনি company to portray this story in the most unique and inclusive way possible. Moana as a character is not the most unique character in the world, but the rest of her movie is.
I প্রণয় the design, as well as the artistic shifts. I can really appreciate that the setting is almost exclusively on the ocean. Having the ocean literally be alive, was new and adding some sort of character dynamic between the elements and Moana herself. Maui, was a secondary focus, and I really like that, as most চলচ্চিত্র tend to make the gods themselves the main characters. I liked that she had a longing and she had a mission and she made them both, her primary goal. I really like that’s is the ‘Hero’s journey’ classic literary trope as well. চলচ্চিত্র that follow that line of action, tend to be the most emersive for me, as I’m going along with the protagonist along their epic quest to save their home. Unlike the stereotypical hero’s trope though, Moana actually in the end is the first self-chosen “chosen one.” The ocean chose her, but then when the ocean takes it back, she goes at it again not letting herself be pressured into going through with it, and actually considering backing out of it, if she thinks she’s not worthy. Which is what she has always debated this whole time, is she really doing the right thing? She takes the initiative, which is common to see in ডিজনি Princesses after Ariel paved the way, but it’s still very well-executed here as well.
I প্রণয় that they go to La Lo Tai, they face the Kakamora, and they have two epic face-offs with Te Ka. Another thing that I প্রণয় is the villain! Surprise! It’s not even a villain, which I absolutely adore because it feel like in every চলচ্চিত্র there’s a bad guy and a good guy, but in this movie, there’s simple, a girl, and Demi-god, and a goddess, that are all misunderstood and can be taken as either a positive অথবা negative force depending on what time in the movie you’re in. Te Ka being the misunderstood goddess was the চেরি on the ice cream sundae for me. Growing up I always wondered why there was a ‘bad person’ in movies, when in real life it’s not so simple. I feel like these are messages that could’ve been used in movie tropes always. The অ্যানিমেশন is gorgeous and the songs are perfect for every different moment of the movie. The only complaint I have is the character নকশা for Maui, and that they just had to make Moana eat pork in front of poor Pua. I প্রণয় it! Subverting expectations left and right, and leaving a bold and diverse new addition to the ডিজনি Princess lineup afterwards!
In celebration of Moana becoming the newest princess, I thought it was only fair, to make a তালিকা that I knew she’d excel in! I’m really excited about the coronation, what do আপনি guys think? I’m super worried if আপনি just completely disagree with my entire তালিকা and especially not liking Moana অথবা that she’s being added to the lineup, sorry if that Moana gushing part was hard for আপনি to get through, lol. I was surprised too when I really sat down and thought about my placements. Forgive my Moana শিরোনাম image as well! I’m not the best at editing those types of things. I hope আপনি at least had some sort of fun অথবা interest when পাঠ করা this and it didn’t just sound like me rambling on and on about these movies. Thanks for reading! I appreciate any feedback!

It’s truly a poetic film, whether done poorly অথবা not. It will always be one of my favorites, even if it does cater to the fanatism of great romantic classics rather than reality.
5. Beauty and the Beast
Is there anyone on planet earth that doesn’t view this movie as truly the tale as old as time? It’ gorgeous movie with a lot of mood and gravity to the decisions and actions in it. The সঙ্গীত as well is also fantastic and very broadway classic, it’s not wonderit was almost instantly made into a production in New York. As one of the only animated চলচ্চিত্র to winx a best picture Oscar, I think this placement is appropriate. That’s all I really have to say about it, it’s very much so a seemless and irreplaceable movie in Disney’s atrociously large legacy.
4. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
It’s boring, it’s down right dull and predictable. The অ্যানিমেশন isn’t much to look at either. And the characters are completely one-dimensions with Snow White probably being the definition of a Mary-Sue. So why do I absolutely প্রণয় it so much? I honestly couldn’t tell you, it’s not as if it’s anymore iconic than the others, and being ডিজনি first feature production it has a lot of clear and obvious flaws. Much after the main conflict begins, e.i. the evil queen, Snow White meeting the prince, magic mirror, and huntsman trying to kill Snow White, after all of this happens there’s a lot of sitting around and being cute. Some animal antics, some cute songs, some funny situations, albeit at least focusing on the main character, but there isn’t much going on. In my ডিজনি Princess article, I don’t really have much reason for liking her as a character either. As a joke I put “she hates apples too,” as a reason for having her so high in my DP তালিকা article. It doesn’t even come from a childhood fondness, because growing up my পছন্দ were জুঁই and Aurora.
I have no idea why I simply like Snow White, অথবা her movie. I find the movie, simply charming? It may contain a lot of nonsensical plot, but it never feels like a drag, we’re always aware of the evil কুইন and her intentions, and we’re always invested in the outcome of Snow White’s plite and conflict. Despite there being nothing really of value unless it’s the beginning অথবা the ending, I like it! Maybe because of the aesthetics, অথবা maybe because of the music. Whichever it is, I’m আরো than happy to watch this with the পরবর্তি generation. This will never get old for me.
3. Princess and the Frog
This movie is outstanding! I found it just as Disney-esque as any of the undeniable classics, like Little Mermaid অথবা Beauty and the Beast. Admittedly, though I prefer stories that are “long পূর্বে and a land far far away” a bit আরো fairytale-like. And that’s what I had hoped for this movie when I found out ডিজনি was doing an adaptation. I was actually quite disappointed when I found out it’d take place in America, and New Orleans at that. But when I saw it in theatres, I really came around to it. The characters were interesting, dynamic, and I was involved in the story like, the voodoo aspect was especially creative and unique and I could appreciate the stylization and liberties taken throughout the movie. The only part where it fell flat আরো me was probably আরো of the bayou scenes, where we meet a cliche “zany and funny” character along the way in our adventure.
I didn’t like how Tiana was a frog most of the movie either, it really ruined the representation being made. Even though, I think this, I also think that Tiana is wonderfully well-done character. She’s very strong willed and introverted, she has a one-track mind, and I think that’s why it’s so interesting to see her be thrown in to this adventure, because it’s so conflicting with her personality. What she wanted to be a simple solution gives her আরো problems and growth than any job she ever had did. I think there’s something to be admired there, a work-aholic princess, who’s princes brings out the best and her, and they both realize the compromise between having goals as purpose and having fun. The message is beautiful, while also being authentic to the time period, and really a great African-American example and mixing what it was like in the 20s, with a little fairytale magic. I just প্রণয় this movie, I could go on about the characters, the plot, the animation, and so on, but I think it’s already been said. It wasn’t a block-buster hit, but anyone who has seen it has nothing but good things to say. I প্রণয় this movie, it’s one of my all-time favorites.
2. Aladdin
Speaking of all-time favorites. I’ve also made allusions to this movie when discussion other movies, it’s hard not to compare them to this one, when this movie does a lot of things so much better than most. It really is a great example of an epic ডিজনি film. From the animation, to the songs, to the characters, all of the are unforgettable. It’s right up there with all the other great adventure movies, if not the best one. I প্রণয় the magic, the genie, the plot, everything is a 10/10. The creators at ডিজনি made a high-quality classic, and while at times it can তারিখ itself with (shivers) পপ সংস্কৃতি jokes of the past, it still holds up as an act দ্বারা act movie. With development and fully-fleshed out characters and ideas. What could শীর্ষ it I wonder?
1. Moana
I feel like such a betrayer of classic অ্যানিমেশন for having this one up as my number one! But in my eyes, it simply can’t be beat. It took all of the tropes that are done well in other ডিজনি চলচ্চিত্র and flipped them completely upside down and on its head. I obviously প্রণয় the Polynesian culture, as it is my own. And I like the myths they chose to incoperate in this story. I couldn’t help but cry at the tremendous effort of the ডিজনি company to portray this story in the most unique and inclusive way possible. Moana as a character is not the most unique character in the world, but the rest of her movie is.
I প্রণয় the design, as well as the artistic shifts. I can really appreciate that the setting is almost exclusively on the ocean. Having the ocean literally be alive, was new and adding some sort of character dynamic between the elements and Moana herself. Maui, was a secondary focus, and I really like that, as most চলচ্চিত্র tend to make the gods themselves the main characters. I liked that she had a longing and she had a mission and she made them both, her primary goal. I really like that’s is the ‘Hero’s journey’ classic literary trope as well. চলচ্চিত্র that follow that line of action, tend to be the most emersive for me, as I’m going along with the protagonist along their epic quest to save their home. Unlike the stereotypical hero’s trope though, Moana actually in the end is the first self-chosen “chosen one.” The ocean chose her, but then when the ocean takes it back, she goes at it again not letting herself be pressured into going through with it, and actually considering backing out of it, if she thinks she’s not worthy. Which is what she has always debated this whole time, is she really doing the right thing? She takes the initiative, which is common to see in ডিজনি Princesses after Ariel paved the way, but it’s still very well-executed here as well.
I প্রণয় that they go to La Lo Tai, they face the Kakamora, and they have two epic face-offs with Te Ka. Another thing that I প্রণয় is the villain! Surprise! It’s not even a villain, which I absolutely adore because it feel like in every চলচ্চিত্র there’s a bad guy and a good guy, but in this movie, there’s simple, a girl, and Demi-god, and a goddess, that are all misunderstood and can be taken as either a positive অথবা negative force depending on what time in the movie you’re in. Te Ka being the misunderstood goddess was the চেরি on the ice cream sundae for me. Growing up I always wondered why there was a ‘bad person’ in movies, when in real life it’s not so simple. I feel like these are messages that could’ve been used in movie tropes always. The অ্যানিমেশন is gorgeous and the songs are perfect for every different moment of the movie. The only complaint I have is the character নকশা for Maui, and that they just had to make Moana eat pork in front of poor Pua. I প্রণয় it! Subverting expectations left and right, and leaving a bold and diverse new addition to the ডিজনি Princess lineup afterwards!
In celebration of Moana becoming the newest princess, I thought it was only fair, to make a তালিকা that I knew she’d excel in! I’m really excited about the coronation, what do আপনি guys think? I’m super worried if আপনি just completely disagree with my entire তালিকা and especially not liking Moana অথবা that she’s being added to the lineup, sorry if that Moana gushing part was hard for আপনি to get through, lol. I was surprised too when I really sat down and thought about my placements. Forgive my Moana শিরোনাম image as well! I’m not the best at editing those types of things. I hope আপনি at least had some sort of fun অথবা interest when পাঠ করা this and it didn’t just sound like me rambling on and on about these movies. Thanks for reading! I appreciate any feedback!
