Stefan Babich in his article, “The Fall of The Female Protagonist in Kids’ Movies” writes about the idea of a female protagonist dying in the “animation war” (n. pag.). He writes about how in recent days animation movies do not have a female protagonist who isn’t the cookie cutter princess. This is very similar to the view in Amanda Marcotte’s article titled, “The Shocking Radicalism of ‘Brave’” where she talks about how “Brave” is a movie that seemed to try to fall out of the algorithm but eventually is from the same mold of movies that the Disney movies come from (Marcotte n. pag.).

The weakest part of Babich’s article was when he justified the sexism in children’s movies today (Babich n. pag.). It seemed to give you mixed signals and was overall confusing about the point he was trying to make. He strays from his main point to show the opposing side but it messes the flow up and leads the reader on a
