Re: I'm not sure I agree with you.

Mulan and Scully have similar characteristics but are portrayed differently, would be my answer there. There's nothing - in principle - stopping Scully from being portrayed like a Disney Princess in a different story. But she's not.

And, yes, in principle, those stories are full of dark or horror elements - but they have been disneyfied, and the Disney Princess versions of the characters come from the Disney versions of the story, in which those elements are not displayed or are certainly not given their full weight and horror and intensity. There's a difference between the way that a Disney movie portrays those things, and the way that a horror film portrays those things. So, again, we can certainly imagine what a horror-movie version of a Disney Princess would look like, or make them goth-y, or make them action heroes, or whatever you like - but it's still a re-imagining, a recontextualization, a change from the original.

and, again, none of this is to say that any of those genres is inherently better than any other

Okay, I think I get your point. It just felt like you were saying that someone with her characteristics couldn't be a Disney princess and that Disney princess stories were far removed from horror, rather than saying that the story-telling approaches are just different.

I do agree that neither genre is inherently better than the other
