The wank is so predictable that you could devise a very quick drinking game around it too!

*Take a shot whenever someone mentions Tangled or Rapunzel. (Take two shots if the post calls the movie "Tangled on Ice")
*Take a shot whenever the snowman is mentioned in a negative fashion.
*Take a shot whenever someone mentions that one quote from that one animator.
*Take a shot whenever someone bemoans any removed female characters.

You'll be dead within five minutes of browsing tumblr. I guarantee.

From what I've seen of this, I kinda see both sides of the arguments. I can see the perspective of people who want to give it a chance, and the perspectives of people who are bummed it cut out stuff from the original fairy tale because the original fairy tale looked kickass.

The argument I find the most derptastic is thing about how the female characters look like Rapunzel or are copies of her. Those are based on leaked 'mock up' /concept' sketches. Things that were used to present the idea before it had any funding. So yeah they re skinned and existing character.

I do that in my writing /character sketching sometimes. The cutie in my avatar there? He was originally based of an AU version of a character from my main work. Until I fixed up him to be his OWN character with his OWN story. It doesn't make him any less original or unique because of where he came from.

I can see some other grievousness people might have. But trotting out the thing about the Rapunzel-models. nah bro...just...nah.

A couple things, the non-teaser trailer for Frozen has been released, and yeah, they're just Rapunzel. There's a gif floating around on tumblr with their faces over Rapunzel's and they fit perfectly.

And as for giving it a chance, the plot has already been leaked with the pre-release of one of the books. It's bland, really, really bland.

I don't think taking a character from another work of yours and giving him his own story is even remotely comparable to taking character designs from one show and recycling them for another.

*Take a shot whenever someone bemoans the lack of diversity.

that one cracks me up at least. They must be the same people who are in the Night Vale fandom INSISTING that there are no white people in town and that everyone is trans.

* Take a shot when people show pictures of old european tapestries and artworks showing ONE black dude to prove there were totally POC everywhere in Europe and Disney ~whitewashed~ this film because they are racist.

*Take two shots if this is followed by a Photoshop of Elsa and Anna as POC.

(Anonymous) 2013-11-01 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
*Take 3 shots if they ignore or dismiss the Sami as having been inspirations for the cast/setting, because native Scandinavians cannot POSSIBLY be white.
