Moana is basically a less-racist version of Pocahontas. Daughter of the chieftain with her 2 pets, a bird and a fat mammal singing about her destiny and receiving a divine message from her ancestors....

I'm surprised it's never been brought up, but would the Indian Motorcycle brand be considered controversial? Though dignified, it's still a racial stereotype of an 'Indian' even if it's not as cartoonish as the Cleveland Indians' mascot.

This is closer to fact. Disney remade her to fit modern "beauty standards ". In reality she was fairly short and what is currently considered overweight. Beauty standards are a load of hogwash. In her historic portraits I think she's a little cutie. They shouldn't have felt the need to glam her.

I refuse to watch her movie anymore after reading up her historical context. She was stolen from her people, forced to give up her first child, raped and ultimately murdered.
Mari Chadwick 5 years ago
Honestly, Disney should never have made a movie about her. She was kidnapped from her tribe, her first son was taken from her, she was raped and ultimately murdered by those who stole her. There is nothing happy to what happened to her.

This is basically the plot of The Little Mermaid: Return to the Sea. Ariel's daughter Melody felt trapped in her palace and wondered what it'd be like to be a Mermaid, which she didn't know existed for reasons. An underrated gem, and a great movie with some really great gems of songs. Ariel is also canonically the only Disney Princess in a sequel to have become a mother.

Ugly is a concept, sweaty. Big noses might be unattractive to some, but beautiful to others. Everyone is beautiful, no matter what. However, your personality seems quite unappealing, due to the fact you feel the need to put others down. c:

Why do you see bikini as sexualization? This picture has a warrior princess vibe, she's not even in a suggestive pose. In some places, people wear even less.

For those of you upset that it's very revealing; I think it really depends on the context. If she was opposed to it, she should not be there. If she's cool with it, it's epic. She may be wearing it for the aesthetic, not actual battle. Everyone is allowed to feel good in anything, be it sweatpants, a tube top and jeans, or nothing at all !

Can i just say.. Depicting any one of these princesses as obese doesnt fit the character or their lifestyle logically.. I mean Airelle swims all day long... She is a mermaid.. I cant think of a better work out than swimming. Really she looks more like ursula who does nothing but eat and have flotsum and jetsum wait on her all day. Airelle is supossed to be adventrous and an explorer. I could go on, you see where Im going with this. Anyway. Just a thought.
Madeline Hero 5 years ago
First, you can absolutely be adventurous and an explorer with any body type. Second, mermaids were inspired by manatees aka fat blubbery animals. In fact, all marine mammals have way more blubber than you would expect, even ones like dolphins which are the most physically active marine mammals. That's because the ocean is COLD, especially in deep water (like where we see Atlantas being) and the fat insulates their warm blood. Blubber/fat is also one of the best natural floatations devices in the world, and since mammals need to breathe air, it helps them rise to the surface easily. It also keeps their saline (salt) levels in check, since osmosis means all the salt in the ocean is trying to enter through your skin, an oily fat layer resists that.

If you think she is large for a worker, I thought Pocahontas, as a hunter/gatherer was a tad large, as well, but these are all from the artists' imagination so it can be whatever they want.

You ARE beautiful. Everyone is pretty. No matter what, everyone is pretty. Maybe you have a big nose that you don't like? Well that kid in your science class loves big noses, and they think you're beautiful. Have you ever seen someone and thought how good they look, how nice their accessories are, or how cool their hair was? How often have you mentioned it to them? For most people, they don't mention it to the person often. Someone may have seen you and thought about how handsome you are, but never told you. You're your own kind of wonderful. 🌺

Bold of you to assume who they are and assume their effort levels. What if that is someone who struggles with a mental illness who draws to cope and wanted to show people? What if it's an insecure person who wanted to see people boost their confidence, and you shatter it instead? <3 If you wish to insult art, suggest ways to improve it, and make sure it's wanted critique.

Sarah Blanche Brinsfield 5 years ago
I see your point, but complain less, sometimes. Your comments got to be more annoying than the art. Art is subjective and at least that person is trying. It's not my choice, nor platform, but it isn't yours either. You need to realize that there is a person behind that Art and I am sure they got your message the first 3 or 4 times you complained about them. You should have stopped at that point, but you continued to the point of being a bully. Not cool at all. I am an art teacher and you need to realize that it doesn't take much to encourage and even less to discourage. Think about the hat and I encourage you to be a better person.

I really appreciate the work and re-imagining of other artists, but what is the obsession with redrawing Disney Princesses? I feel like whenever there is nothing to report on in the news or discuss in greater details, listicle sites fall back on the old trope of: "Here are 50 Disney princesses re-imagined as members of 1980s hair bands." Perhaps, I'm finally getting old and out of touch- oh, no! (The horrour). Why not redraw Marvel characters or characters from other books, movies, and novels. Perhaps feature work by artists designing their own original characters as well. I would love to see some original character designs.
