New Disney Princess

Anyone have any thoughts on this?  I'm just curious because I haven't seen it, but if every character is a minority then it seems like it kind of says "separate, but equal" to me and that sucks.  Like, ok we'll make an African American princess, but she's gotta have her own movie with just other minorities.  Am I just thinking about it too much?  Maybe if I saw it, it would make more sense.

  • Disney not portraying something correctly? Omg no way...Pocahantas anyone?
    I don't understand why people are making such a big deal about this. They made a princess who happened to be African American. Did we get this excited about Jasmine or Esmerelda (not exactly princess but main character) or Mulan and I just missed it?

    Disney movies really are not that kid friendly if you read too deeply. I mean, Scar tossing Mufasa to his death by stampede? Jafar chaining Jasmine to him in a skimpy little outfit? Rasputin and his whole control of dark magic in Anastasia?

    Why can't people just enjoy a movie?
