Thank you to everyone who participated in this countdown! I had lots of fun organizing this, and I hope you had fun voting and commenting. :)

11. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Walt's first full length animated film was a technological masterpiece during its time, but unfortunately it doesn't hold up so well 80 years later. Fans didn't like how stiff the characters look or how inconsistent the animation is.

The animation looks odd and stiff, the colors are dull, and not much attractive as others have. ~Sparklefairy375
I agree with MaidofOrleans & Sparklefairy375. For the time it was made in, it looks great, compare to the others, not so much. I also noticed while looking at stills of the movie, that the edges don't seem filled in. Like if you were to look at Snow White's hair, where the closer to the lines the drawing gets, the less ink is there. While in movement it's not really noticeable, but looking at stills... It looks a tiny be unfinished. ~Angelica_AW
It isn't as detailed and finished as others. While it was a groundbreaking leap in its time but compared to others now, it lacks so much from colors to movement to landscape to character drawing. ~anukriti2409




10. The Princess and the Frog

Aw, I'm so sad this left so early. It's got some of my favorite hand drawn animation. Users disagreed though, saying that they didn't like the colors used and that it didn't stand out overall.

Same as before. It feels more like a low-budget animated series. ~jeangreyforever
Though I like the landscapes of New Orleans, the animation style especially in "Almost There" feels kinda cheap and low-quality. I also don't like the animation of forest and bayou. ~Sparklefairy375
I really don't like the animation in this movie. But that's because, admittedly, I don't like the 1920s. Though I don't really mind the art deco sequence for "Almost There," I don't like the swamp scenes, and I don't really like Mardi Gra itself. Also, it is almost always nightfall and so dark throughout the movie... Then the characters have their weird cartoony issues, and Dr. Facilier is especially lanky and gecko-like. He, Ray, Lawrence, Naveen, and Mama Odie kind of are the parts of the animation that really look lackluster. It looks just like they threw something together. I'd also pick Brave, because of the large balloon-like heads ( Merida's included), and the dimensions of the "physical bodies" which are often way out of proportion to their facial features. And it seemed like a great effort was made to make everybody look ugly... except for Merida and Elinor. Why was that? To this day, I find that aspect very weird. ~wavesurf
it simply isn't magical like others. The main reason i got so bored of the movie that animation just doesn't pull you in. The side characters are so lame and unthought of. The color scheme is so dull and dragged. There are couple of beautiful shots of bayou, esp the wedding but that's about it. I hate Dr. Facilier's design completely, he is annoying and not scary or imposing like a villain should be. There are so many settings yet so less of it is memorable. ~anukriti2409
I really wish I liked it better, but it just isn't that great. ~FloraorStella
I agree with everyone above me. ~phalangeregina




9. Tangled

I was a little surprised to see this get voted out so early. I was sure Brave was going to leave first. Fans just don't like CGI that much, especially when compared to some of the beautiful hand drawn animation present on this list.

Big bug eyes of Rapunzel are ew. ~phalangeregina
All the people are really generic and plasticky looking. ~cruella
Not a fan of 3D animation. ~FloraorStella
Still don't care for 3D ~zanhar1




8. Brave

It's no surprise that our other CGI film got voted out next as most fans have a huge preference for hand drawn films. Although the scenery is gorgeous for the most part, users really didn't like the exaggerated character designs in this movie.

I don't like the out-of-proportion bodies and faces. It bothers me. ~wavesurf
The characters have weird head shapes. ~jeangreyforever
Some of the nature scenes look beautiful and I love how Merida looks, but it's not my favorite. And I prefer hand drawn. :) ~quishy11
While the scenery is gorgeous, the people look incredibly unrealistic. ~FloraorStella
Everyone is ugly in this movie. ~phalangeregina
Still this one. ~tiffany88
Agree with phalangeregina. It's like they're trying to make everyone ugly on purpose in Brave. Everything just looks like cheap CGI. Tangled does CGI animation better and Moana seems promising. ~disnerdtobe




7. Aladdin

Although it has beautifully consistent animation, most fans found the style too cartoon-ish and simply less interesting or beautiful than the other movies left.

I've never cared for the Aladdin animation style. ~cruella
My next choice would be Beauty and the Beast. ~wavesurf
Two words: Too cartoony. ~EmaSomolanyiova
The others are better. ~FloraorStella




6. Mulan

I must admit I was surprised Mulan got voted out so early. I had no idea people weren't a fan of its animation! I personally love the fact that it takes inspiration from Chinese calligraphy.

Love Mulan but the Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty animation is just too fantastic and are my favorites. Cinderella's animation is elegant and classic. Sleeping Beauty is absolute work of art, with a unique style and is my favorite. ~disnerdtobe
My opinion is unchanging. ~phalangeregina
The other are more unique. I'm not so awed with Mulan's animation. ~Evera
I like the others better. ~jeangreyforever
All the Walt films are gorgeous. I can't understand the hate. ~carter_morrison
^agreed. I think people are just used to CG and AND animation being more colorful, loud and cartoony. Anyway I'm actually hard pressed to choose between this and Cinderella. Cinderella is more generic and inconsistent, true, but it's still quite pretty, Cinderella is one of the few rotoscoped characters who doesn't look creepy, the color scheme of blues and whites without being making it look like winter in a (presumably) warmer setting is nice. Mulan does have a pretty style, and it does look like Chinese illustrations, but the people besides Mulan and Shang tend to look cartoony and the color palette doesn't really stand out to me. ~AudreyFreak
The side characters are ugly and I hate ugly people. ~xanara




5. Cinderella

Although lots of people liked its dreamy qualities, many fans also thought it didn't have a varied enough color palette (too much blue everywhere). Plus, users didn't like how inconsistent a lot of the colors were.

Well, same reason as before. Not a fan of this one. It's generic and somewhat the characters and places are drawn and colored inconsistent. Lol I won't stop copying my comments about it until it was left. ~Sparklefairy375
i much prefer TLM. The movement, the depth in character and settings are far greater. The color palette has improved so much. ~anukriti2409
Though this is nice, the repetitive blue hues to everything gets old after a while. There is more color in TLM. ~wavesurf
I mean, the animation isn't consistent in this one, as everyone else has been saying. I really hope Pocahontas wins! It easily has the best animation! ~FloraorStella
The Little Mermaid is by far better. I am always impressed with Ariel's wavy red hair. Cinderella is good but not that impressive. ~Evera
But I do like Cindy's too. ~zanhar1




4. Beauty and the Beast

I knew this was going to get knocked out sooner or later because a lot of fans complain about how inconsistent the animation is. That was the main issue people had with it, and it was finally eliminated this round.

Still selecting this one, as I do like the illustrative quality of the forest in the other...but neither one has my favorite animation, to be honest. ~wavesurf
Sleeping Beauty's animation is just breathtaking. It's so unique, gorgeous and artistic. A true masterpiece. I love the geometric shapes and patterns. ~disnerdtobe
My vote goes to this one, it just can't beat the art that is Sleeping Beauty! Every character is on-model in the entire movie, unlike BatB where Belle goes off-model a few times here and there. ~PrueFever
Sleeping Beauty is gorgeous! Every frame is a painting while Beauty and the Beast has so much wrong with it. Belle especially looks really ugly in so many scenes and I hate ugliness! ~xanara
Agree with PrueFever and xanara. ~jeangreyforever
My feeling is this one because of the picture. It is a very pretty scene but the chandeleir always looked out of place. ~phalangeregina




3. The Little Mermaid

Fans mostly liked this animation but felt that it was too cartoony at times and not as refined or beautiful as the other two left.

The other two are better. ~xanara
It's always hard for me to vote anything Ariel related off especially because I love the animation but Pocahontas and Sleeping Beauty are both superior. It helps in both cases that the many people think the animation of these films are the only good things about them! ~jeangreyforever
I'm very disappointed to see 'Beauty and the Beast' gone. Their animation was much better than Little Mermaid and Sleeping Beauty. ~Beastlysoul25
I just watched the Sleeping Beauty yesterday, and I have to say the animation is really pretty, despite all the greens and browns. I actually like the painting style. The Little Mermaid's animation is amazing, but I think the other two tops this one. ~FloraorStella
OK, OK, I changed my mind. I haven't watched Sleeping Beauty for a while, so I kinda forgot about the animation. So I watched it... and it's actually pretty, except for the colors, but that's kinda acceptable despite on when did they do SB. I can't say the same about TLM. It has only a few stunning moments. ~EmaSomolanyiova
Sleeping Beauty and Pocahontas are my top two favorite animation styles so I'm glad to see them make it to the top three. I agree with Prue Fever than the character animation in Pocahontas isn't as good as Sleeping Beauty's (except for Pocahontas herself-she's perfect). But both have stunning landscapes. Again, The Little Mermaid has good animation in terms of movement (like her hair), but for overall aesthetics, the characters are drawn too cartoony for my taste and the colors and artistry aren't as impressive as the other two. ~disnerdtobe




2. Pocahontas

Wow, I'm honestly shocked that this didn't get first place! Regardless, it definitely deserves to be in the top two. Pocahontas is famous for its gorgeous animation, and users especially loved its vibrancy and use of color.

Gorgeous and stunning animation ♥ ~Sparklefairy375
I easily prefer TLM's animation over that of Sleeping Beauty's. And Pocahontas's visuals are a whole lot better than Sleeping Beauty's, too. ~wavesurf
Pocahontas is much more beautiful! ~Beastlysoul25
poca's is way more beautiful! I like SB but not from animation perspective. it only fulfills half a part of the animation - deisgn. The movements are stiff and unnatural. The forest is still, no wind, no rustling, grass looks like a green carpet. Birds are beautiful. All the side characters have this depthless movement. Kings and guards and goons of Maleficent. The elements are all without depth - the rooms in castle, not a drape moves, fire in Aurora's room is flat. Even Samson's movements are too dull. It isn't about have a dark color palette but it just falls flat in the real animation part. I bet the storybook would of its frame would be phenomenal. Poca has more natural, more thought-through animation. The nature is just flawlessly animated, the sun rays, the flowers, the birds, the fall. All side characters have depth in them - percy, grandma willow, meeku, even flit. The colors are breathtakingly beautiful. Humans feel like humans. ~anukriti2409
Such a gorgeous flawless animation <33 ~tiffany88
Sleeping Beauty is too dull compared to Pocahontas. ~EmaSomolanyiova
All the colors!! This animation is gorgeous! ~FloraorStella




1. Sleeping Beauty

Oh, I'm so incredibly happy Sleeping Beauty managed to win this countdown! I've always thought it had the most beautiful animation of any Disney movie. Fans liked that it resembles a painting, and while some didn't like its dark and foreboding atmosphere others said that they really enjoyed that aspect.

I think this movie is more beautiful! Aurora is always beautiful while Pocahontas is off-model a few times with a weird hairline. ~xanara
I find that Sleeping Beauty has very smooth, quality animation. Pocahontas' is not as smooth nor as pleasant to look at. For me, this is an easy pick. :D ~ApplesauceDoctr
Oh god. This is really difficult. Both have such stunning animation that they could be considered equal. I lean slightly towards Sleeping Beauty because the animation is more unique and eccentric and I think the characters are animated slightly better. I agree with MaidofOrleans that the darkness makes sense in this movie. Pocahontas has stunning bright colors and it's REALLY hard to put multi, bright colors together and make them look good so props to that. In fact, Disney thought Pocahontas would do better than Lion King, so they put the A-animators to work on Pocahontas and the B-animators to do Lion King, which explains for Pocahontas impressive animation. Especially in Colors of the Wind, so artsy with the colors and Native American-inspired things added to the art. Both movies are amazing and beautiful and I'm so glad to see both of my faves in the top two. They deserve it! ~disnerdtobe
^I agree that both deserve it. I prefer Sleeping Beauty by a tad bit more because I love the gothic dark style and how each still can be a painting on its own. ~jeangreyforever
How can the little mermaid be out???? That is my favorite! ~twinklestar11
I think this is looking better and also more liked in my country. We all wish to live in castle. ~phalangeregina
This is an interesting topic. I don't remember Pocahontas so Sleeping Beauty by default. ~petra_solano
watch more at home. twin say me to ~thesnowqueen
i think me agrees. very pretty looks here when she be sleep. like painting look ~thewitchqueen




Let me know what you think of the results in the comments!
Well, today I'm going to analyze the movie Tangled. This will include taking my opinion, the public's opinion, the critic's opinion.. Etc. To analyze the movie, and find out how people feel about it.




My Opinion
I think this movie is absolutely amazing. I adore Rapunzel, she's my favorite Disney Princess, and I love Flynn too, he's my second favorite Disney Prince. Mother Gothel is one of my favorite villains, so of course I would love a movie if I loved the characters. I also love the plot of the story, I don't think it's that simplistic, although I know people say that. Despite what people...

This isn't in order of what I like, this is the order they are shown in the movie.

1. The Rags
Am I the only one who likes this? I think it's cute how she is showing off her dress like she thinks it looks good. Of course it looks ridiculous when it's all bunched up, but after it smooths out, I think it's pretty. White is probably the best color on Ariel (besides her green fishtail and purple seashells). I wouldn't like it as clothing, but it's the first thing she wears, and only for a few minutes, I think it looks good on her.

2. The Pink Dress
Of course this one clashes with her hair. But I...

Sorry this took me a little longer than the other ones. I originally planned to remake my favorite Disney Princess Singing Voices. About halfway though it, I decided to go to this and return to the other one later. It will be up within a day or two, hopefully. Anyways, Mulan is my personal favorite Disney Princess movie (currently) and I know that it's popular with most on fanpop, so I decided that this would be the movie soundtrack I would do next. Anyways, please keep in mind that this is my opinion, and we may disagree, so respect my opinion and I'll respect yours. Enjoy the Article! :)

This fanfic will not have ANYTHING to do with the movie, it's just the characters that remain the same. Rapunzel will have her brown hair though, if anyone cares.


Rapunzel had not seen Merida in two years.

Merida was Rapunzel's best friend.

And last, they were going to see each other again, for the first time in two years.

Let the story begin..


Rapunzel was anxious.
What if Merida isn't the same? Rapunzel thought, What if she's different? What if....


Stop questioning yourself.


Merida will be the same person she was when you saw her two years ago.



Rapunzel saw Merida approaching, but when she was...

Forgive the confusing title, dearies ;) So, based (although let's face it copied) off of coolsinger198's article, written a few months ago, this is an article on which DP us fanpoppers have as our favorite. I'll show each Disney Princess, write a little description about them, and then put the fans who have the princess as their favorites :) Anna and Elsa not included, by the way. So, let's get started!

Snow White
The princess who started it all, Snow White seems like just an adorable, sweet little princess, but be warned! Under a layer of sugary sweetness and baby animal helping tendencies,...

So, I made a poll counting down the smartest disney Princess and it's time to find put who will be the smartest Disney Princess! Please keep in kind that it isn't my opinion, it's the opinion of the fanpop users. Enjoy the article! :)
Also, for some comments I had to shorten or change them.







13. Anna

She didn't get much education, right? Especially since she was isolated for no reason and desperate for love. Nobody told her she can't judge a person so fast. - Manu962

So, I'm going to be ranking about how I feel the animation is in the Disney Princess movies, I'll be ranking them worst to best, but I will be SEPERATING the computer animated films from the hand drawn ones. I'm going to start with the computer animated ones first because there's less of them and the real countdown is the hand-drawn ones.

Anyways, as I usually say, this is my opinion, so please respect it and I'll respect yours, because it's likely that we'll disagree.

Enjoy the article! :)

So let's start it off:

The Films That Are Computer Animated

The Disney Princess Villains Lineup.
The Disney Princess Villains Lineup.
So this was originally a top 10 list, and I still have villains 10-7 sitting around in my drafts, but they're not going to be picked up for an article, maybe they will some other time. Honestly, I don't actually like THAT MANY of the Disney Princess villains, there's only 7 that I actually like, and only about 5 that I love. So I'm only going to do my top 5!
Anyways, because I still wanted everyone to know my placements anyway, I'm going to show you 12-6.
12. Mordu

It's been over a year since I last wrote this article so here's an updated list with Anna and Elsa included

12. Jasmine

Like I did in my previous articles I decided to seperate Jasmine and Mulan because even though Lea Salonga did both their singing voices they're different enough to seperate. Anyway I've never been a fan of Jasmine's singing voice, it's too poppy for my taste

11. Belle

Another voice I've never been a big fan of although I'm starting to like her voice a little more, but it's still not a very pretty singing voice to me and the voice is too old for Belle

10. Ariel

kk, so almost all the redesigns are blehhh, but I felt like talking about them, so yeh. btw, I didn't include Merida bc she wasn't redesigned when everyone else was originally redesigned, and no Anna or Elsa for obvi reasons.


10. Rapunzel

Okay, so I love Rapunzel's beauty in her film, and that's one of the main reasons I am so harsh on her redesign.. It's freaking terrible like.. x__x Her eyes are all trippy, not to mention her face shape. NO ONE'S MOUTH IS THAT LONG, LET ALONE RAPUNZEL. As for the outfit, it definitely is waaay too sparklified, like most of the redesigns.

Today, I will bring you my DP list, arranged from my least favorite princesses to my most favorite princesses. But I will do this in a descriptive fashion. I will give you a sort of stream-of-consciousness writing of DP thoughts.

Ready? Here we go.

The Least Proactive Princesses: These two princesses are both whiny. One has very bad self-control issues tied with her cryokinetic powers ( the child abuse that she suffered as a kid did not help her), while the other was simply lied to, until she came of age. Both respond by throwing tantrums in the face of their problems.

If anyone's been here for more than a few months, they know that, one, my list is an ever changing mess, and two, if I'm not writing this article every two months, something is wrong. Well, it's been nearly four or so months since I last wrote this list and somehow my list has remained relatively stable. Despite it staying nearly the same, these have always been my favorite articles to write, so I just thought I'd write it again. So here I go!

It's tough. I can see the appeal of Belle, I really can, and at times I wonder why she's last on my list, but she just..is. I don't know, she's...

Bonjour!
As some of you may know, Beauty and the Beast is one of my favourite Disney movies; because of the songs, characters, animation, morals and of course the story. However there is a German version (and I'm not sure when it was written, so I'm not sure if it was the original story) that is a little bit darker than the movie we all know and perhaps love...
So I thought it would be interesting to show it to you guys and see what you think of it. Let me know if you enjoyed it - or found it horrible.
Please note these are not my own words. And sorry it's kinda long

Hey guys, you may or may not remember me (people who don’t maybe new people or people who never noticed me in the first place). But it’s me, princecatcher93. I am so sorry that I left fanpop, I left for many different reasons, one being my family changed internet plans so I have 4G a month all to myself (may sound like a lot but when you use other things it can go by quickly), second of all my health really went down, which lead to many different things. I discovered I had desperation early last year and I used fanpop as my support group to get out my feels, I loved running a lot of things...

Hmm, have I written an article on this? It seems vaguely familiar, but I looked through like five pages of my articles and didn't see it, so I'm gonna write it anyway, hizzaaa! Remember this is purely opinion based, so don't be mad if it strays from your own list :3 I hope you enjoy! //edit; I decided to change it up and instead of ranking the princesses, talk about what makes them all a good role model and not talk about the bad parts (because positivity yayayyy).

Snow's a trooper, plain and simple. She's fourteen years old, the youngest of all the princesses, and yet despite that...
