Everyone has their own favorite Disney princess. If you don't believe me, ask someone. Whatever you do, however, don't tell them that their favorite princess is stupid. You are just asking for a war. Just for your own edification here is a list of my favorite princesses, in order from most to least favorite:
1) Giselle (Enchanted)
2) Aurora a.k.a. Brier Rose (Sleeping Beauty)
3) Belle (Beauty and the Beast)
4) Jasmine (Aladdin)
5) Maid Marien (Robin Hood)
6)Mulan (Mulan) Note: She is not really a princess, but if you look at all of Disney's princess merchandise Mulan is included. I love Mulan so she makes it on my list.
7)Ariel (Little Mermaid)
8) Cinderella (Cinderella)
9) Snow White (Snow White)
You may notice that Snow White is at the bottom of the list. I HATE Snow White. Her high pitched voice, her complaining nature, and her lack of fashion sense makes me want to barf! Fortunately for Snow White this movie also has seven dwarfs that counteract her lameness. Correct me if I'm wrong, but little people are fantastic. Just look at Wee Man:
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is based on a fairy tell collected by the Brothers Grimm about a vain queen that wants to be the fairest in the land. When her magic mirror tells her that Snow White is the fairest in the land, she vows to destroy her. Snow White runs to the woods and happens upon a little cottage that houses seven little men. What do they do? Why of course they sing.
Have you ever noticed that in almost every princess movie the princess has some sort of unnatural power over animals and she gets them to do what she wants by simply singing about it. I don't know about you, but whenever I sing to squirrels they just run away. They don't help me do anything. Snow White has this ability, and she selfishly uses it to make the animals help her do her chores. It goes something like this:
This movie, as much as I hate Snow White, is a classic. It's full of memorable tunes, iconic moments, and it was the first of its kind. If you haven't seen it yet then you had a terrible childhood...I bet you watched nothing but Nova on PBS didn't you? You're sick!
The bottom line:
Rating: 4.1
Would I own it? I wouldn't wanna raise my kids without it.
Would I recommend it? You know it brother!
