I don't find it insulting to the Disney Princess franchise.

Yes, it had the part about not marrying a man you just met, but I do feel like that is an important thing to learn. It is important to take time to get to know someone and who they really are, but I also feel like some of the princesses, like Jasmine, took time to get to know one another.

Nothing insulting about it. I mean, it did have a scene of Belle saying she wasn't a princess. But guess what? SHE WASN'T A DAMN PRINCESS AT THAT PARTICULAR PART OF THE MOVIE! It's not like Moana where it was pointless for her to say she wasn't a princess. I mean, she's the daughter of the chief, which makes her a princess. If the chiefdom was an electoral office like in some other cultures, that would be one thing. But only her family line can become chief, which makes them royalty, and therefore she's a princess. Moana is my favorite Disney movie but that whole "I'm not a princess" thing was stupid, inaccurate, and pointless. Here in Beauty and the Beast it didn't bother me.

I suppose, but the line" I am not a princess!" STILL irritates me.

My next choice is Moana, because why do you need to announce "I am not a princess!" in order to prove yourself?

Just go ahead and prove yourself, like Mulan did.


Basically, with Frozen it really does get offensive. Fundamentally, it takes all of the tropes that Walt Disney himself introduced with Snow White and Cinderella, and lampoons them. The line that made Elsa so famous--- "You can't marry a man you just met!"--- is not something one sees in a fairytale. Critiquing the speed of romance in a fairytale is only something you do to ridicule a previous princess, in a previous movie.

Compared with the rest then yeah. Beside that Belle's character here is sort of an anti princess, it's basically just a typical remake.

Don't see how this is insulting at all. It celebrates the original.

Expect for the " you cant marry a Man you just met" i dont find Frozen that offensive.

Belle in beauty and the beast is not saying a fact she has clearly a disgust look on her face when she Say "i m not a princess" and i watch a lot of interview of Emma Watson and she really leaves me the impression that they turn belle into an inventor because old belle is "not enough feminist" Which i consider offensive toward original belle.

KL, I know you love Moana, it's cool that you don't blindly think it's perfect (Not that you ever have, just some fans refuse to believe their favorites have flaws).
I agree with magicworld about Beauty and the Beast. They tried to make her more progressive (She was fine before) the townspeople rude, almost villainous and close minded, which is a bit extreme.
I wanted to say Enchanted, since the creators called it an affectionate parody, a love letter to the company.
It isn't meant to be offensive I'm sure, and I do enjoy the movie. HOWEVER, the movie kind of tries to refute and/or make fun of clichés that didn't really exist in the Disney universe to begin with.
This is getting hard, I'm going with Moana for now. May or may not change my mind.

I just never got the impression that it was trying to be superior to the original franchise, regardless of that one line.

agree with magicworld_88 about Emma's comments on Belle. though that would still be my next choice.

KataraLover picked Beauty and the Beast (2017):
Belle didn't have a look of disgust on her face because of the princess comment. She had a look of so-called "disgust" because she had just discovered a talking wardrobe that had just grabbed her face and was planning to treat her like her own personal dress-up doll. Also, Emma Watson has said in interviews how much she adores the animated Belle and that the character was one of her role models growing up that made her the woman she is today. She said in an interview with Ellen along these lines, "We've made her much more stronger and independent in the remake, although, I thought she was already really strong and independent." She has nothing but respect for the original Belle. As for her being an inventor, I feel like that adds to her being considered odd and showed more of why she's so intelligent. In the original, people assume she was so smart because she read books, despite that she mostly read fictional books and fairy-tales, that doesn't make her super smart. This version was much more of what I think would be considered odd and not just a book worm. It also adds to her being an outcast and give her and Beast something to talk about with them both being outcasts, though for different reasons. Besides, it's called adding more depth and detail to a remake. It's better than just making it exactly like the original 100% with no changes.

But in the scene belle reacted to the wardrobe before. She made two very differents expressions
Surprised and shocked when she discovered the wardrobe
Then the wardrobe takes her for a princess.
Then belle responded with a disgust expression "i m not a princess"
She is reacting to the wardrobe comment
