Oh, thank you! I'm glad you're interviewing me too, you're a really cool member! I'm gonna have to do this in parts...
1. Congratulations! How does it feel to be người hâm mộ of the Month?
Thank you! It feels awesome! It was really exciting because it meant my contributions were well accepted and people thought they were good.
2. Your yêu thích Princess and why?
As always, Mulan. I just absolutely tình yêu her. She's smart and Công chúa tóc xù and selfless. I tình yêu her character and her transformation. I tình yêu how she goes from the awkward, clumsy girl in the beginning to the confident woman in the end. My yêu thích thing about that is that all of her traits and personality in the beginning is still there in the end, she has just learned to accept them. I tình yêu her darker sides of bitterness, disorganization, martyrdom, and thêm subtle downfalls of her character. My yêu thích thing is her struggle in character and how she has to discover who she is- and in the end, she fails just as much pretending to be a perfect man. She has to be completely herself to succeed. I tình yêu that she struggles to find herself, because it's so realistic. bạn shouldn't have asked me why, I always give essays when asked why I tình yêu Mulan.
3. Your least yêu thích Princess and why?
I'm not sure, my danh sách is changing right now. I've got it down to one of three though- Jasmine, Merida, hoặc Cinderella. hoa nhài because she's a hypocrite who lets Aladdin và cây đèn thần treat her like "a prize to be won." Merida is going to be really difficult to place- she's a really interesting, compelling character, but I don't really LIKE her much, so it will be difficult for me to decide whether I place her based on her complexity hoặc likability. Lọ lem is just unlucky. Lately, I've begun to appreciate all of the princesses more- except Cinderella. Well, I do appreciate her more, just to a lesser extent. It's really because I can't get emotionally involved in her movie.
4. Your yêu thích Prince and why?
Shang. I tình yêu his selflessness, bravery, and development from arrogant new captain to strong leader. I also tình yêu his complex with his father.
5. Your least yêu thích Prince and why?
Charming. I think he’s a jerk for the same reasons everybody does, and he doesn’t even learn Cinderella’s name. He’s also just so stilted and has such a bland personality (from what we see.)
6. Your yêu thích DP villain and why?
Either Evil Queen hoặc Shan Yu. Evil Queen because I just tình yêu her creepiness and find her really elegantly diabolical, I can’t really describe it. Shan Yu because of THE LITTLE GIRL.
7. Your least yêu thích DP villain and why?
I think Gaston, almost because I like him. He isn’t either fierce and intimidating (Shan Yu) hoặc charismatic and elegant (Maleficent, Facilier.) I don’t really know, though.
8. Your yêu thích DP movie and why?
Mulan. I tình yêu the humor, the story, the characters, the music, the animation- I just really tình yêu this movie. It’s my all-time favorite. I especially tình yêu the way gender issues are addressed- there is a lot of good humor (you know when bạn get those manly urges,) but it also handled really well. Mulan doesn’t fit perfectly in either, and I really like that.
9. If bạn could chose one Disney heroine to be in the line-up, who would it be? Where would they rank on your pretty danh sách and yêu thích list?
Objectively, Esmeralda hoặc Jane would probably be the best. I’d pick Jane of the two. Since my danh sách is changing, I don’t know where she’d rank, but probably in the hàng đầu, đầu trang five. She’d be 3rd (above Mulan) hoặc 4th (above Ariel) in prettiness. If I just picked who I wanted, it would be Kida. I tình yêu how she gives up herself for her people. I tình yêu her devotion to keeping her people’s culture alive. I just really tình yêu Kida. She and Pocahontas would be constantly fighting for 2 (I think Pocahontas would usually win.) She’d either be 4th (above Ariel again) hoặc 5th (above Snow White) in prettiness.
10. Which Princess do bạn relate to most and why?
Belle. I also like đọc and feel like an outcast, all the normal reasons. I also hate my community, I’m surrounded bởi superficial snobs. However, I also think I am like Belle in thêm significant ways. Like Belle, I have difficulty expressing my real feelings with people. I tend to talk around things (like when Belle called Gaston a bunch of names he wouldn’t understand.) I also would be like Belle in that I will defend myself even when I know I’m in the wrong. I also think I can be a bit of an intellectual snob, like Belle. Like Belle, I also feel that my learning separates me from people- I’m almost never invited to things with my friends. I also relate to Rapunzel because I feel like the way my mind works isolate me from others.
