My Original Thoughts

The first time I watched "Beauty and the Beast" was a loooong time ago. My mother loved, and still loves, that movie, along with my sister. Naturally, they made me watch it over.. and over.. and over. No matter what though, I never got a real opinion of Belle. She was just kind of there. At all my costume parties, and such, my mom and older sister always tried me to dress up in Belle attire for Halloween, but I left that for all the other girls. ;) I was just never a Belle fanatic.

My Thoughts Now

Some habits die hard, because I'm still not in the Belle fandom. (or "BatB" for that matter) And let me just say, I hate how some people find her the most intelligent! Her vocabulary is somewhat lengthy, but just because reads 图书 (which she specifically 说 she reads fiction) does not make her smart!

Okay, okay, rant mode off. Either way though, I don't 爱情 Belle, I don't really like Belle, but I don't dislike her. I 爱情 her bravery; I consider her one of the most 《勇敢传说》 selfless princesses, but I don't really like much else. I used to like Beast, the angry jerk. Then, he got Belle. After that, Beast goes all lovey-dovey like Belle and is ruined lolol.

Beauty

No doubt about it, Belle can be beautiful. The reason I say can is because I find her very inconsistent. Her ever-changing lip color gets on my nerves. And tbh, Belle's hair is super stringy and not my 最喜爱的 color. Her eyes are really pretty, even though I usually don't like hazel-ish eyes. I 爱情 her skin tone and dayum I adore them cat nails! Overall, she ends up toward the high middle of my 列表 for this.

Wardrobe

I don't hate Belle's wardrobe; it's just not my favorite.. A lot of it is just meh for me. The blue dress not that impressive, along with the green dress, and the cape (of which I hate that hideous pink-ish color.) I do somewhat like the yellow ballgown. My 最喜爱的 of hers would have to be the 粉, 粉色 dress Belle wears UNDER the ugly cape. Now that 粉, 粉色 color 《金装律师》 her and it simply looks lovely.

Voices
Speaking

I don't particularly have a problem with Belle's speaking voice. It's nice, but I have no reason to 爱情或者 hate it.

Singing

This is the one place where my opinion has changed vastly. I used to absolutely HATE Belle's annoying 唱歌 voice. Something about it almost made me cringe. Then, I really started to focus on the voice 更多 each time I watched "BatB." Turns out, I adore it now! It's beautiful, and it's almost hard to explain. :)

MalloMar I agree with this article. I have little to no strong feelings on Belle or Beauty and the Beast. I didn't grow up with the movie, but it got so much praise that I assumed it was a must-see. It's an okay movie. Belle is certainly pretty, but her personality doesn't interest me very much. I admire her kindness. I actually love her speaking voice, not sure why. Her singing voice is nice, too. Overall, I don't dislike her, but I don't really love her either. *blushes* I got called a cutie... Nice article, Annika!

Swanpride Reading makes intelligent, even if you read "just" fiction (which we don't know for sure Belle does, she favour fiction, but the movie suggests that she is interested in everything she can read about). Because fiction is full of information. A better vocabulary is also a sign of intelligence. Reading (and education) aside: Belle shows her smarts in other ways, too. For example when Gaston corners her in her home and she decides to lure him to the door in order to throw him out. That is some really quick thinking. Later she recognises that cockworths is easy to sway with compliments and uses this to her advantage. Now, I am not saying that she is the smartest (Rapunzel and Mulan are both smarter than her) or the best educated (since Merida got formal schooling and she didn't). But she is certainly smart and various levels. And when she was created, she certainly was the smartest, because, well, the alternatives were the classic princesses who don't really display that much smarts, and Ariel, who tends to be downright stupid. Belle was the start of a string of princesses for which "she is smart" was considered an important character trait. There is no reason to be annoyed about it.

CRaZy_rawR When you explain it like that, yes! But that was more directed to the people who's say she is smart simply based on the fact she reads. ^^

shanyuisboss I really like this article! I like that you kept it short and simple but still fun to read. Although I disagree on one thing. First of all, Belle never said that all she reads is fiction. She said that she prefers fiction. I know a lot of people that prefer fiction but still read non fiction. I see that you acknowledged in the comments that you think she is intelligent, but what do you mean by people that say that simple because she reads? I don't think the people that say that mean it for the reason to be that simple. They just don't go into detail explaining why reading the amount she does usually makes you more intelligent. I don't really agree with you on everything in this article, because it is your opinion after all. I personally never found Belle to be as inconsistent as people make her out to be. Anyway, good job.

MaidofOrleans Nice job! Don't agree on everything (Belle is my number one haha) but I liked the article!

Silverrose1991 Lovely article. Belle is one of my favorite princesses: I like her relatively simple, soft personality combined with bravery, selflessness and depth (as in th opposite of being shallow and vapid). She inspires me to get back in touch with my inner bookworm. So I can't agree much, but it was an enjoyable read because you are a natural writer. Btw, I love the clean way you're organizing this series.

audreybrooke I also feel mostly ambivalent about Belle. Well done! :)

8804 Great article, and good analysis! I'm liking this series, CraZy_rawR!!!! I always considered Belle there...as a plot device. I mean, she's supposed to have the beast fall in love with her in order to "break the spell." And there wasn't as much dimension and verve to her personality ( striking out with her own ideas) as happened with other princesses. So, though I like her, it's only ever been "like." It's never been "love."

MadameLee there's a delete scene where she meets enchanted objects in the library,-a telescope, a globe, and a book stand. They all kind of talk her ear off in a sense (from what I saw of it).

Origins of names - 迪士尼 Princes

posted by Annabethandco

There was a very 流行的文章 made a long time 以前 about the origins of 迪士尼 princesses names and I wanted to do something with the names of 迪士尼 princes. These names will be done in a 随意 order and some princes will be left out for various reasons (such as SOMEBODY not even having a name).

1. Adam
Adam is the Hebrew term for man. I think this is pretty obvious because according to the Bible, Adam was the first man created. In a way it is fitting that the Beast is called Adam once he is transformed back as he is human again and now a man not a beast.

Another name meaning is red. This...

My Defense Of Rapunzel.

posted by avatar_tla_fan

I have seen that some people think that Rapunzel is a bad role model, so I thought I would give my opinion on this. Anyways, keep in mind that this is what I think she's a good role model, 你 may find different traits better in a role model. Anyways, enjoy the article!

I'll be discussing that I think Rapunzel is a good role model, and is not a stupid character.

This Will Contain Spoilers of the Movie Tangled.
Let's start with the beginning of the movie.

Analysis of Tangled. (Opinions from fanpop, public, critics. Etc.)

posted by avatar_tla_fan

Well, today I'm going to analyze the movie Tangled. This will include taking my opinion, the public's opinion, the critic's opinion.. Etc. To analyze the movie, and find out how people feel about it.

My Opinion
I think this movie is absolutely amazing. I adore Rapunzel, she's my 最喜爱的迪士尼 Princess, and I 爱情 Flynn too, he's my 秒最喜爱的迪士尼 Prince. Mother Gothel is one of my 最喜爱的 villains, so of course I would 爱情 a movie if I loved the characters. I also 爱情 the plot of the story, I don't think it's that simplistic, although I know people say that. Despite what people...

Reviewing Songs; Mulan: Part 1!

posted by avatar_tla_fan

Sorry this took me a little longer than the other ones. I originally planned to remake my 最喜爱的迪士尼 Princess 唱歌 Voices. About halfway though it, I decided to go to this and return to the other one later. It will be up within a 日或者 two, hopefully. Anyways, 花木兰 is my personal 最喜爱的迪士尼 Princess movie (currently) and I know that it's 流行的 with most on fanpop, so I decided that this would be the movie soundtrack I would do next. Anyways, please keep in mind that this is my opinion, and we may disagree, so respect my opinion and I'll respect yours. Enjoy the Article! :)

My BEST 迪士尼 Princess 电影院 ANIMATION!

posted by avatar_tla_fan

So, I'm going to be ranking about how I feel the 动画片 is in the 迪士尼 Princess movies, I'll be ranking them worst to best, but I will be SEPERATING the computer animated films from the hand drawn ones. I'm going to start with the computer animated ones first because there's less of them and the real countdown is the hand-drawn ones.

Anyways, as I usually say, this is my opinion, so please respect it and I'll respect yours, because it's likely that we'll disagree.

Enjoy the article! :)

So let's start it off:

Annika's Redesign 列表

posted by CRaZy_rawR

kk, so almost all the redesigns are blehhh, but I felt like talking about them, so yeh. btw, I didn't include Merida bc she wasn't redesigned when everyone else was originally redesigned, and no Anna 或者 Elsa for obvi reasons.

10. Rapunzel

Okay, so I 爱情 Rapunzel's beauty in her film, and that's one of the main reasons I am so harsh on her redesign.. It's freaking terrible like.. x__x Her eyes are all trippy, not to mention her face shape. NO ONE'S MOUTH IS THAT LONG, LET ALONE RAPUNZEL. As for the outfit, it definitely is waaay too sparklified, like most of the redesigns.

Stream-of-Consciousness 写作 ( Sort-of) for the 13 迪士尼 Princesses

posted by iwasneverhere

Today, I will bring 你 my DP list, arranged from my least 最喜爱的 princesses to my most 最喜爱的 princesses. But I will do this in a descriptive fashion. I will give 你 a sort of stream-of-consciousness 写作 of DP thoughts.

Ready? Here we go.

The Least Proactive Princesses: These two princesses are both whiny. One has very bad self-control issues tied with her cryokinetic powers ( the child abuse that she suffered as a kid did not help her), while the other was simply lied to, until she came of age. Both respond 由 throwing tantrums in the face of their problems.

Little Broomstick - A Version of Beauty and the Beast

posted by MissCassecou

Bonjour!
As some of 你 may know, Beauty and the Beast is one of my favourite 迪士尼 movies; because of the songs, characters, animation, morals and of course the story. However there is a German version (and I'm not sure when it was written, so I'm not sure if it was the original story) that is a little bit darker than the movie we all know and perhaps love...
So I thought it would be interesting to 显示 it to 你 guys and see what 你 think of it. Let me know if 你 enjoyed it - 或者 found it horrible.
Please note these are not my own words. And sorry it's kinda long

Did you miss me?!

嘿 guys, 你 may 或者 may not remember me (people who don’t maybe new people 或者 people who never noticed me in the first place). But it’s me, princecatcher93. I am so sorry that I left fanpop, I left for many different reasons, one being my family changed internet plans so I have 4G a 月 all to myself (may sound like a lot but when 你 use other things it can go 由 quickly), 秒 of all my health really went down, which lead to many different things. I discovered I had desperation early last 年 and I used 潮流粉丝俱乐部 as my support group to get out my feels, I loved running a lot of things...
