Prettiest Princess

I think the prettiest princess Disney ever drew was Princess Jasmine from Aladdin.

She’s got those amazing shaped, enormous brown eyes with perfect lashes that look like winged eyeliner, that flawless jet-black hair, her nose is adorable and her smile is to die for.

When I was a child I wanted to wear my hair like hers. Alas, it was never long nor thick enough, and I quickly discovered that a low loose ponytail looks pretty stupid on me anyway.

She’s even adorable when she’s mad, which surprisingly for a princess, happens quite often. She’s quite feisty.

And of course how can I forget the amazing red slave costume where with a twitch of her hips (hips to waist ratio is like WHAAAT?) she convinces Jafar she’s in love with him. I love that killer high ponytail.

I mean sure, she’s slender and petite and spends most of the film showing her belly button, but she’s drawn so well and I think she’s the prettiest princess.

Day 4: Favourite SOng

Let It Go from Frozen.

I’m not even sorry.

Everything about this song is amazing.

It was originaly supposed to be the villain song. Imagine that! But it made Elsa too sympathetic, so they changed her entire character based on this song.

Idina Menzel, Elsa’s voice actor, already made a name for herself belting ballads such as Defying Gravity from Wicked.

The whole sequence is amazing, watching Elsa finally embracing her magical gift.

The Inciting Incident Incident

inciting incident

Once a long time ago a person I met online asked me to be his writing partner and we agreed we’d try to write a fantasy story about his character, a swordsman, and mine, an archer, trying to stop a giant monster from terrorising a kingdom.

He asked me to go first, so, thinking chronologically, I wrote a few thousands words about this monster tracking down a innocent pair of children and devouring them.

When I handed it over to him, he read it and laughed.

“What is this?” he said. “I thought we were writing about our characters attacking the monster!”

“It’s the set up,” I said. “You know, the inciting incident?”

He laughed again, bewildered, and that was the end of our partnership.

Day 3: Favorite Prince

Flynnigan Rider/Eugene Fitzherbert from Tangled

Flynn was literally created by polling women and asking the females working at the studio what they thought was most attractive. I love his outfit and is he the first Disney prince to have facial hair? I like it.

I love the fact that his voice actor, Zachary Levi, made a name for himself playing the world’s biggest nerd, Chuck Bartowski. Flynn is the opposite of Chuck.

I love how his character arc changes through his love for Rapunzel.

I love how in the beginning they don’t get along. Apparently it’s my favourite trope.

I love how he sacrifices himself for her freedom.

He’s a pretty appealing package, and that’s why he’s my favourite prince.
