As I was creating my icones for Team Merida, I realised exactly why I loved this girl. As a result, I decided to write an article with 5 reasons why everybody should l’amour Merida/Brave
1. Rebelle was the first Pixar film that had a female protagonist.
Pixar is a hugely successful company, but it took about 8 years since they first started making films for them to make a movie where the main character was a girl. Before Rebelle was made, I was slightly annoyed at Pixar - most of it's films didn't even pass the Bechdel test. I l’amour Rebelle because it finally featured an awesome female character.
2. Merida is a great role-model, just the same as some of the other girls
Perhaps Merida isn't your first thought when it comes to good role-model. A lot of people call her "spoilt" and "a brat". However, stop to think about it. There is something in Merida's life that she doesn't like, so she makes a HUGE effort to change it. She doesn't just accept a bad fate. There are millions of teenagers in abusive ou bad situations and Merida can act as a perfect role-model to montrer teens they can change their life!
3. Merida is the first princess with brothers
I have ALWAYS wished for a princess film that showed an accurate portrayal about the brother/sister relationship. And while Rebelle didn't have much of a focus on the four siblings, at least it was a start. I WANT plus PRINCESSES WITH BROTHERS
4. Merida is the first princess who didn't end up with a l’amour interest.
I guess to some people this would not seem very significant, but I feel it is very important that girls see that a princess doesn't have to eventually end up with a prince/love interest. toi don't need a man to live happily ever after. Rebelle teaches girls that life is about finding yourself, not romantic love.
5. Merida gets a lot of unfair criticism
As mentioned earlier, Merida is often (unfairly) called a spoiled brat because of the way she reacts when she finds out she is being forced into marriage. But, realistically,how would toi feel if toi were sixteen and looking vers l'avant, vers l’avant to studying at université so toi can go and live your dreams. Suddenly, your parents tell toi none of that is going to happen and toi have to give up your dreams and get married. Any arguement toi make is completely ignored. Oh, and par the way, toi have no choice in who toi marry and your husband is a complete stranger who toi have never spoken too. I'm guessing any sane person would react the same way Merida did.
That concludes this article. I would really be interested to hear your thoughts.

What do toi mean it took 8 years to have a female protagonist? That's so dumb!

Snow White is my favorite princess, if I could be like any of the princsesses, I would choose her!

SNSD: I think Naveen. I felt that they're both smart and cunning. Like the I-get-what-I-want kind of type.
ATLA: I think Naveen, ou maybe Flynn. I actually think they're not that much like each other, but I feel like it would work out. I think that they would be a great couple, especially since I don't even like Tiana with Naveen anyway..
Ship Name: Navana.

Wow guys can toi please all calm down? I deleted my account ages il y a because I wanted to focus on school and I just wasn't interested in Disney anymore.
But with the turn my life has taken, I've decided to return. I couldn't have my old nom d’utilisateur back, so I just thought putting a dash in front of my name would suffice.
I just missed this place, and I'm already collapsing under stress and pressure. I never thought rejoining this community would be such a headache.
But seriously guys, calm down. It's actually me. Like, legitimately me. Look. Me.

Hello. Today I'll be discussing the songs of Frozen. No, this isn't going to be a La Reine des Neiges RANT, I'm just going to be reviewing the songs. Anyways, please keep in mind this is my opinion, so respect mine and I'll respect yours. Enjoy the article! :)
Let's start off with the beginning..
Frozen Heart
I absolutely l’amour this song! It's one of my favoris from the movie, and I really l’amour it. The only issue I have with it is, I think it gets boring and tiresome if toi listen to it too much, and the tone of the song gets a little old. I l’amour this song, and think it's one of the better songs in...

Now in terms of Cinderella, it would be a little easier to make a TV series from her movie.
Premise:
The way I see it, there are two ways this series could go about: 1. It could take place before the events of movie, specifically, after Cinderella's father dies and the Tremaines take over. ou it could take place after Cendrillon goes to the ball, just so we can have Fairy Godmother as a regular character. Now personally, I'd prefer if the series took place right after Cindy's father passed away just to montrer the early years of her life, but then again, having it take place after the ball as previously stated, would have Fairy Godmother as a regular and would add magic and spells to the mix.
