Whats the message in all three of them? I watch neiter disney princess movies nor animes.
- cm2012 8y agoIt's not exactly one message - this is across hundreds of film and tv shows. But basically: 1) Old Disney - The best thing that can happen to girls is finding prince charming. 2) New Disney - Girls are just regular protagonists, sometimes purposefully going against the tropes. 3) Anime - Incredibly variety, top 5% is amazing re: girls or boys as protagonists, but a lot of it written for teenage boys and has women as side characters for sex appeal.
- olavk 8y agoRe old disney: I suppose you are thinking about Snow White and Cinderella. Note that the prince play a very small role, everything is about the journey of the girl. If it was gender–swapped you would say princess charming was purely objectified as a prize to be obtained. And some classics like Alice in Wonderland does not fit the template at all.
- cm2012 8y agoI agree that old disney has a worse reputation on this stuff than it deserves.
