Because PociandSmith has stopped coming to this spot, I was given the honor to interview our FOTM for November Swanpride :)
1. Congratulations on winning fã of the Month! How does it feel?
Thank you - I'm a little bit overwhelmed. I'm not just new at this spot, I'm new at fanpop in general, and I didn't expect this at all. I already felt very honored when I saw that I was in the pick and discovered that diluka had nominated me. Thank you to him and everyone, who voted for me. It feels good to know that people liked my articles.
2. Who was your favorito princess when you were a child? Why?
I'm a little bit older than most of the members here, because of that, I was on the verge of becoming a teenager when the disney Renaissance started. Between the three classic princesses, cinderela was my favorite, and is still my number three.
3. Who is your favorito princess now? Why?
I always say I have a favorito for each age - cinderela for my childhood until in my early teenager years Belle came along and kept the spot for a long, long time (when I was in that age, I was well known in the whole neighborhood for walking início from school while reading). Until Rapunzel came along - I think from all the disney Princesses, she is the most creative with the most interesting story, and I amor her design. I especially admire the strength she displays in freeing herself from her abuser. And I amor her relationship with Eugene - I think it's the most well rounded of all of them.
4. When you were a child, did you ever wish you could be like your favorito princess?
Yes and no - my sister and I played "Cinderella" a couple of times, but just as often we played "ugly stepsisters", putting cushions under our clothes and tried to immitate the strange walk. Perfect is admirable, but it's also boring, plus, I had enough real life rolemodels
5. Your favorito & why:
Prince: Philip - he wants to give up his trono for Aurora and fights against the most evil and dangerous disney Villain ever.
Disney Princess Song: That's difficult, I spend so much time thinking about the soundtracks for my artigo series, I have mais or less for every category a personal favorite, and I had to reevaluate a lot of my opinions. "Once upon a dream" has a special place in my coração though.
Disney Princess Movie: Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast and Tangled, not necessarily in that order. All three of them are a work of art in my eyes, especially Sleeping Beauty.
Disney Princess sidekick: No idea, but some which are stand out are Grumpy (the most intereing character in Snow White), the three fadas (they are mais protaginists than sidekicks, though - and I prefer them in the German dubbing), Mushu and Crikey (they are a great commedic team) and Maximus (he is just awesome)
Disney Princess Villain: Maleficent, hands down. Not just is she awesome, she is one of the few who is evil just for the sake of being evil.
Disney Princess Movie score: Sleeping Beauty - sorry Alan Menken, but this one is nearly impossible to beat.
Disney Princess Sequel: I loathe all the disney direct-to-video-sequels, with the notable exceptions of "Aladdin and the King of Thiefes". Since the original Movie already had a cartoony style, the differenc in the quality of the animation is not that exreme than in the other ones, the voice atuação is topo, início notch, the story is a little bit predictable but interesting enough, the songs are catchy and it's a very good conclusion to the TV-Show.
6. Is there one disney Heroine you wish could have been made a disney Princess?
Not really - to me, the selection is totally logical. The only one who perhaps got ripped off is Megara, but I don't really like all the pop culture references in Hercules, so I'm kinde glad that she isn't included, though I really like her character.
7. Pretend there were no 'official disney princess' (meaning Esmerelda, Kida, and all the other disney heroines would be part of this spot too) would your current princess favorito change or stay the same?
Yes, though Jane would compete for the topo, início spot
8. Did you ever have a crush on a disney Prince? If so, which one?
Phillip - he does slay the dragon.
9. If you could change one thing in the lineup, what would it be?
Only one thing? I have some issues with the line-up, but I think what annoys me the most, is that especially the classic princesses don't really look like they are in the movies. And I really hate the way the draw Rapunzel, that doesn't look like her at all, her eyes are big, but they are not THAT big. So I guess my first change would be to make sure that the princesses look like themselves.
10. Which princess do you think you're most similar to?
Belle - and yes, I know, predictable, but as I mentioned above, I actually was the girl whose nose was stuck in a book and everyone called odd. I'm not sure if I would be as Valente as Belle (though I am as stubborn and nosy as her), but I certainly don't want to find out
11. Which princess do you think is the most beautiful on the outside? What about on the inside?
Aurora, hands down. On the inside - I think innocence is beautiful, so Snow White is it.
12. What's one thing from one of the filmes you wish you had? (like maybe Pocahontas' necklace, or Rapunzel's tiara...)
The painted box in which Rapunzel keeps her painting supplies.
13. Do you look like one of the princesses? If you do, which one?
Not really
14. Would you rather:
Be a mermaid or a frog?: A mermaid
Have a dragon and a cricket as sidekicks or a lightning bug and a crocodile?: Definitly the Dragon and the cricket.
Have the most beautiful voice or be the most beautiful girl?: Voice
Marry a peasant or a prince?: Depends on the peasant and the prince.
Be a princess or a peasant?: Neither nor. Being a Lady is fine, enough money to life comfortable, but with mais freedom than a princess would have.
15. Which princess do you think seems to be the most flawless?
Flawless in a sense of having no faults? Cinderella, I think. Really, her life sucks and she still smiles and is friendly to everyone. The last thing I would do if I had to work all dia would be sewing little dresses for mice in my nearly none existent spare time.
16. If you could be any of the princesses or a character from their movies, who would you be?
Aurora - it's a no-brainer, she is the most beautiful, has a beautiful cantar voice, a big family and gets Philip at the end of the movie. Or mulan - I wouldn't really care about going to war, but just for the moment of China bowing to me, I wouldn't mind living her life.
17. Is your number one favorito disney movie a disney princess movie or a regular disney movie?
That's a little bit like comparing jeans to an evening vestido - there is for each category (based on books, based on original stories aso) one movie I like mais than the others. But my favorito DP filmes aside, my topo, início ten of my favorito disney animated filmes include Dumbo, Lilo and Stitch, The great rato Detective, Treasure Planet and Fantasia. But I really can't tell which I like the most - I have a great respect for Fantasia, which certainly is the greatest Masterpiece disney ever did, but I don't think that it's really my favorito from an emotional point of view.
18. What was the first disney princess movie you saw?
I don't know - I watched disney filmes as long as I can remember, but it has to be one of the three classical ones.
19. Who is your least favorito princess?
Pocahontas, I think. I find her very dull - yes, I know, she leaps off cliffs and so on, but that doesn't make her character interesting. I also find her whole design confusing - she looks older than the other princesses, but she often acts like a little child. And I don't get why she doesn't speak up for John Smith immediatly, if she is so in amor with him. I'm mais a "get it done" type, and her moping around, not being able to decide on her seguinte step, although a life is at stake, just annoys me.
20. What is your least favorito disney princess movie?
"The Princess and the Frog" - while I don't dislike Tiana, I find her hard to relate too, Naveen is the kind of man I would keep my distance from in reality, I really hate the "From hate to love"-trope, I don't think that butt-jokes are funny, the pacing in the movie is off, and the música is okay but lame. The only thing in the whole mover I really like is Lottie.
Thank you again Swanpride for your respostas and thanks to all of you who took the time to read this artigo :)
