People Are Calling Out The Disney Princess "Mistakes" That Make Them Cringe, And I Need To Know If You Agree
If you've ever watched one of Disney's earlier animated movies, one, you have good taste, and two, you may have noticed a few "hard-to-ignore" plot holes. So when a Reddit user asked, "Which Disney princess has done the most [what were you thinking] thing, but we ignore it?" so, so many people provided their very opinionated thoughts. Here are some of the top comments:
1."Ariel signed a contract without reading it."
2."Anna’s making silly decisions the entire movie; meanwhile, Elsa is having quiet panic attacks in almost every scene."
3."If Mother Gothel had just changed Rapunzel's birthday, none of that movie would have been necessary."
4."Not the princess herself, but the Three Fairies from Sleeping Beauty are the dumb ones."
5."Alice drank a random bottle she found in the woods."
6."Merida fed her own mother a magic cake bought from a mysterious witch to 'change' her."
7."Jasmine didn’t perform a background check on the made-up prince who showed up out of nowhere."
8."Asha from Wish just makes one poor decision after another. She’s a one-woman crusade to fix something no one wanted fixed."
9."Pocahontas, letting a white man take her across the ocean."
10."Vanellope von Schweetz almost glitches herself out of existence, taking unnecessary risks."
11."Cinderella. Girl, buy shoes that fit."
12."Belle. She agrees to live with the Beast in his dark, enchanted castle even though he’s initially hostile and locks her in a tower. While her actions are driven by love for her father, she doesn’t have a clear plan for handling the situation. Staying with the Beast despite his temper could be seen as ignoring red flags that in real life might be concerning."
13."Snow White. Moves in with seven random men (can you imagine the judgment she would face nowadays?!) THEN takes and eats an apple from a very suspicious-looking old woman in a forest! I don't want to 'victim shame,' but come on, Snow White — pull yourself together."
"Tiana kissed a frog. I’m just like: Girl, you know when you associate with swamp trash, you become swamp trash, right? Never the other way around."
