2. Pulp Fiction (1994)
3. Can’t Hardly Wait (1998)

I’m not even a huge Cinderella fan but that is the best live-action Disney has done so far! (Of the ones based on their animated movies I mean, but also maybe in general)

[thesummersqueen]

As soon as I saw the dress I just knew that it would be great and it really is the best live-action one. I had high hopes for Beauty and the Beast but it was just not good?

I actually got to interview Sandy Powell, the Cinderella dress designer, and it was the freaking coolest!

Same re: B&tB. Belle is one of my fave princesses (tied with Tiana), and B&tB has a special place in my heart, and I was so disappointed. If Belle's casting had been better (EMMY ROSSUM WAS RIGHT THERE), I think I would've enjoyed it a lot more. I like Emma but she was not right for it.

[thesummersqueen]

Oh, that's such a great interview. I'm jealous :)

Yeah, while I liked Emma in Harry Potter she just didn't fit into B&tB and while Belle has never been my favorite princess I was still disappointed. Also the dress was just not it. I understand not wanting to wear a corset but there was just something missing.

[champagnexdream]

Aw thanks, I can't believe that was almost a decade ago. She was super cool!

Agreed all around re: Belle and B&tB! Emma is a good Hermione. Not GREAT, but she did the job.

[thesummersqueen]

I think that she was right for Hermione or maybe that's just because I grew up with watching the movies and didn't really see that other children could've been better and now can't really imagine anyone else as Hermione?
But I just felt like they also changed stuff in B&tB that didn't need to be changed? Like I've only watched it once so I could be remembering it wrong but didn't she invent something? That's what I loved about Cinderella, they did change some things (talking mice would've been weird and I loved that she met the Prince before going to the ball) but it still felt like the Disney movie. Though I could write endless essays why Cinderella is not as anti-feminism as everyone likes to say nowadays.

[champagnexdream]

I feel the same re: Hermione even though the first movie didn't come out until I was 16. I didn't start reading the books until after the second movie came out. I wish I had when the first book came out - I was the perfect age then (12).

I've only seen B&tB all the way through once but yeah I think so, re: inventing. Everything just felt very shoehorned and like she was playing a watered-down Hermione with too much autotune, bleh.

Curious about your take on Cinderella being not anti-feminism! I don't think it is either tbh, she's literally chasing a choice while being forced to be a slave, but what do you think?

[thesummersqueen]

I read the first book when it came out in German and I was 11 back then. Never reread them though.

I think it's the same as what you said. So many women say that Cinderella just went to the ball and found a prince and that woman are more than just their boyfriends/husbands - and they are right - but Cinderella didn't do that. She wanted to get out of her horrible life and found love along the way.

[champagnexdream]

And literally BECAME ROYALTY in the process, like? Bye! And honestly maybe Ariel was too young for what she did but at least she didn't marry down, damn, lol

[thesummersqueen]

You know if modern royalty wasn't such a chaos I would love to just go to a ball and find myself a prince. I'd also have nothing against being a princess that went missing like in Tangled (which is so different from original fairy tale but I just love the movie).
