(Anonymous) 2012-10-29 04:24 am (UTC)(link)Everyone calls Snow White her father’s daughter, but not her mother’s daughter. Their automatic loyalty to her can be traced to their loyalty to her father. When she gives her motivational speech, what does she say?
SNOW WHITE. I can kill her. And I’d rather die today than live another day of this death! Who will ride with me? Who will be my brother?
Aside from the jaw-dropping stupidity of the speech itself–”I’d rather die today than live another day of this death” is utterly bafflingly campy–for some reason Bella Swan decides to demand that people be her brother (singular!), despite there being women in the crowd she addresses at the time. Not to worry of course, because the army she subsequently raises is all-men with her as its sole female figure Jeanne d’Arc style. Not that she actually leads, really, because their primary strategy seems identical to that used by her father way back when: to ride all the way from the duke’s castle and charge at a gate. This results in most of said army being decimated by ballistae, arrows, and boiling oil.
------------------------------------------------------------
Other than the fact that the writer is right and Snow manages to get half her army killed, which is funny by itself, that campy speech is utterly flat and uninspired in delivery. It has to be seen to be belived. She just stands there, barefoot, in a white dress symbolizing her ~innocence and virtue~ that makes her torso look like a box and does her no favors and yells this with an emotionless face while the extras try their hardest to look dumb-struck and awe-inspired. It's hilarious.
