Merida
If you had a chance to change your fate, would you? The first time I saw the film, Brave, I didn’t really like Merida all that much. I thought she was kind of a brat. I got the whole tough relationship theme between her and her mother(Queen Elinor), but I still didn’t care much… Read more »
Belle
There are three princesses left in our Defending the Disney princess series. Today’s princess is fan favorite, Belle. And for once it might be grand – to have someone understand – I want so much more than they’ve got planned. It’s a sentiment we can all relate to – this business of wanting adventure… Read more »
Pocahontas
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest. Come taste the sunsweet berries of the earth. Come roll in all the riches all around you and for once never wonder what they’re worth.

Cinderella
No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true.

Though stuck in a bad situation with apparently no way… Read more »
Tiana
People down here think I’m crazy, but I don’t care! I can’t think of a single reason to not like Tiana. Not. A. Single. One. Her film received a lot of criticism because of the presence of voo doo and magic, which is odd because we live in a society obsessed with vampires. So..yeah, not buying that… Read more »
Snow White
The Fairest of Them All That’s her tag line anyway. I’ll leave it up to you to decide if she really is the fairest one. It’s a personal opinion type answer. I’m swayed in neither direction. The biggest complaint I’ve heard about Snow White is her high pitched voice. Snow White is a real sweetheart… Read more »
Aurora
“Hail to the king. Hail to the queen. Hail to the Princess Aurora!” Sleeping Beauty is a beautiful film to look at. One day we’ll revisit the art that is Sleeping Beauty. Today, however, is Auroras day. So she’s your (thanks to whomever) stereotypical blonde beauty that needs rescuing. However, none of that is actually her… Read more »
