The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid is a Disney movie about a young mermaid named Ariel. In the movie Ariel experiences several different conflicts throughout the entirety of the movie. Some of these conflicts could have been avoided if the characters would have used a non-judgemental tone/calm voice, clarified their real intentions, and established mutual purpose.Throughout the movie Ariel engages in flight many times when it comes to conflicts, though on the rare occasion she does choose fight. On the other…

had Romeo committing suicide for her, or was it that he was so stupid that he would die for her? See, love is so uninterruptable that no one can understand why it makes people do the things that they do. Even in the trash movie and musical, The Little Mermaid, there is a song titled “She’s in Love”.…

adaptability make them fun to follow and enjoy. Most of the beloved villains in today’s pop culture share similar character traits. Villains are greedy, egotistical and cunning. To start, a villain’s objective is fueled by their greed. In The Little Mermaid, Ursula the sea witch’s goal is to rule a kingdom. Greed is her main motivation and she uses Ariel and Prince Eric to get what she wants. The poster boy of greed is Ebenezer Scrooge. His very name conjures up images of old, stingy men.…

Mighty Mermaid When people think of Disney fairy tales, most immediately associate with fun, happy endings, imagination, and dreams come true. While this is not inherently wrong, it seems they can take it too far. Historically speaking, the majority of fairy tales intend to impart life lessons, values, and morals. However, when Disney sets out to create fairy tale films, ultimately, they tend to alter the original story line so much that the original context tends to disappear. The Little…

For one thing, some main physical attributes remained the same, “a little girl… as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as ebony” (Tatar 83). Despite capturing these important physical similarities; for the Grimms’ Snow White, her story started at 7 years old while presumably for the Disney’s Snow White her story…

and “fairy tales being unattainable”. Fairy tales, as intended, were supposed to echo real life, and be grounded enough that people could relate to them or take something away from them. Take, for example, the Hans Christian Anderson tale The Little Mermaid. In the original story, the protagonist makes the choice to exchange her voice for legs. She then proceeds to have her tongue removed out of her mouth…

twelve and your coach is about to be nothing more than a pumpkin and you don’t want your prince seeing you dressed like that do you. Now hurry along child, go ! The films Cinderella release in 1950, Beauty and the Beast release in 1991, and The Little Mermaid released in 1989 I have been able to conclude that these films created by Disney reinforce typical Female stereotypes. This has had a negative impact on the viewers as these stereotypes are seen as the Social Norm. These reports will look…

I took another trip to Pao Hall of Visual and Performing Arts to see the Senior Exhibit. I was quite impressed by the artworks that were displayed in the Patti and Rusty Rueff Gallery. As I walked around the West Gallery, there was an artwork that I kept going back to. I reckoned it was a sign. An art student named Congdi Wang used a single instrument, a ballpoint pen specifically, to draw Deer in Forest (Figure 1). Compared to my inept and appalling ability to draw or doodle anything noteworthy…

Cruella De Vil from one hundred and one Dalmatians. A third Disney villain is Ursula from the little mermaid. These three Disney villains have their own story of who they are and I am sure they are proud too. A famous Disney villain I know is Maleficent. After she was not invited to a party she curses the princess Aurora. Although she seems mean she was not always like that, she was actually a sweet little girl before any of her evilness. She is actually a powerful fairy that lives in an…

movie maybe like Disney or Pixar have ever noticed little cameos of pervious characters in new movies. Some appearances might be a mere nod to another story just for the sake of a reference. While others seem to confirm the existence of a timeline shared by several movies. There are various theories about how Disney movies are connected. But there is a network of connections between Frozen, Tangled, Beauty and the Beast, Tarzan, and The Little Mermaid. So how are the movies connected? For…
