Alright, so ever since I saw enrolados way back when, my mind has kind of been in a tizzy over a lot of things. Mostly, my amor for said movie, Flynn Rider, and my desperate want to play Mother Gothel in any alternate productions of the movie.
But also: can frying pans really work the way they do in the movie?
I'm not one to usually harp upon factual things in movies, especially animated ones, but I figured it would be a ton of fun to figure out the mathematical (scientific? I'm not sure how to classify it, really) logical-ness behind fighting bad guys with cozinha appliances.
Now, if the average frying pan is, say, according to Wikipedia, 8-to-12-inches in diameter, and are made of cast iron. Using fancy mathematical stuffs and things, we can wager to guess that these pans are decently heavy. Turning to online stores, I looked at different pans, of the following weights:
4 lbs (Williams-Sonoma, 12 inches)
3.5 lbs (Amazon, 8 inches)
There weren't that many pans with weights listed, unfortunately, but I can wager to guess all average frying pans are around the 4 lbs. mark.
So that's 4 pounds of condensed force flying at someone - is it enough to knock them out? To google we go!
An artigo from LiveScience states this: "A cubic inch of bone can in principle urso a load of 19,000 lbs. (8,626 kg) or mais — roughly the weight of five standard pickup trucks — making it about four times as strong as concrete." So, us humans are pretty resilient - but what about the big ol' KO?
Another quote from LiveScience gives us something close to the answer. "A blow that gives the head enough spin to go from 0 to 43,000 rpm in just one segundo has a 25 percent chance of knocking a person unconscious."
LiveScience is talking about punching, so we have to account for the fact that you can do a lot mais damage with a cast iron skillet versus a fist - the logical part of my brain says with that pan smacking someone, you probably have closer to a 50% chance of knocking someone unconscious.
So could Flynn and Rapunzel plausibly hit guards with that trusty pan and watch them fall like dominoes? No. Are they complete goners? Also no.
And there you have it, the math/science/word jumble behind the frying pan battles in Tangled!
Au revior!

I may be a little late for this but here we go...
So I have this opinion that I don't know whether or not it's popular, but I know at one point it wasn't. Everyone is just like "oh, she's going to be horrible as Belle!" But I strongly disagree, and here is why.
People say she looks nothing like Belle, so I'm just sitting here like soooo....? She looks no less the the same as Emilie de Ravin does, and she makes a great Belle on Once Upon a Time! I get it, when people see the live action versions of these movies, they want to see the characters similar in both personality wise and design...

Derek and Odette, together in love.
Disney Should Adapt It
I personally think that disney should adapt this story, although the majority of ballet companies have tragic endings. Some of them have a happy ending, including the 1994 animated version. The only problem is the music, whether or not to keep traditions with Disney's Sleeping Beauty.
Disney Should Not Adapt It
As mentioned, I had listened to the famous piece from this ballet. Sadly to say, the música are dark, dramatic and sinister for a disney film. Considering that it is a family-friendly environment!
To Be or Not To Be?
So there you have it, do you think disney should adapt it or not?
Rothbath and the Black Swan.
Enchantress in disguise!
Beauty and the Beast
We first seen her in the Prologue as an old woman, when Prince Adam spurned her. Her true nature is shown and in retaliation, she turned him into a beast and tells him that only true loves can redeem him inside, as well as the outside.
Cinderella (2015)
Upon re-watching this, I just found out that the Fairy Godmother is actually the Enchantress herself. Only this time, when she turns into her true self, she changes her appearance and that she must have been watching Ella the whole time, I suspect that she doesn't want Ella to suspect that her beloved Fairy Godmother might have cursed Prince Adam!
Do You Agree?
I was really surprise por this theory, considering that it is set in France! Or is it just another disney doppelganger?
Her live action from Cinderella
Her second form.
Her true form with Adam.
