Just like The Frog Prince took place in New Orleans, right?

The Frog Prince was moved to New Orleans. Frozen was left in its original setting. It makes lots of sense to have black people in New Orleans in the 1920's. It doesn't make lots of sense to have black people in medieval Scandanavia. I wouldn't give any personal fucks if they did put some in, but I wouldn't think that it made sense.

I understand that. But they could have moved the tale from Scandinavia to another place, where there is just as much snow, like the Andes, the North Pole, Mongolia... etc. They had options.

Here's a thought. Why dont' we spend our energy trying to get more stories from non-European cultures told, and less complaining that the European stories don't contain enough non-European characters?

I agree. The problem being that we're getting neither and it's getting very old, very fast.

What we need is for Disney to catch on to Tales from Around the World with Pat Morita. Tell the African version of Cinderella, or a South Asian Sleeping Beauty. Fairytales are archetypal stories, there are familiar elements everywhere. It should not be this hard to mix it up a little.

...holy shit. I would KILL to see an Andean adaptation of the Snow Queen.

I look at have a change of setting to the United States in that the Unites States can be arguably considered a cultural salad bowl. A nation of immigrants, blah blah.
