(repostin something I made a while back while I wait for photoshop in other computer to work so I can finish commishes b4 weekend.)
'I drew this in mind when I read an article some weeks back (which I want to find again, but I cannot find it???) I read about one woman who took her youngest daughter to see "Princess and the Frog" . Seeing her little girl make OMG!ENCHANTED!FACE and thinking the new generation gets to have Tiana while her generation did not. This thought made her bawww in the theater.
I also bawwww while thinking of this.
It's sad but happy at the same time. It's kind of like when I first saw "Mulan" the first time as a little girl. I was personally moved.
...
Because all the "issues" and some flaws of this film aside, I felt the movie and Tiana were made with sincerity and love, not just something to be marketed, which is important when bringing to life a story you want to move people with.
Princess and the Frog and Tiana (c) Disney Fanart by me (because I love this movie FFFF)
EDIT: Guys, you are seriously going to make me BAWWW (aside from all the wapanese trolling on the front comments lol) even more with all these lovely stories you're telling me about your Disney memories. If only Disney knew how much good stuff like this is what lasts with their audience ;___;
I was just four years old when I saw the Little Mermaid, my first Disney film. I still remember the wonder I felt as a wide-eyed little girl, lost in the beauty of the story. I used to kneel by the couch and sing 'Part of Your World' (rather badly and off-key). Almost 18 years later, I still feel that joy. That may be the greatest gift that Disney gives us... to revisit the simple world of a child and forget everything else, if only for a while.
Well done!
