Can Disney stop fucking trying to profit off of latin@s???

To be fair, or fucked up (however you choose to look at it), Disney tries to profit from everybody.

Unsurprising. They just need to stop.

Also, they range in price from $500 to $1,000.

I just wanted to tell you how much I admired your Disney Princesses series! I really enjoy looking up the fashion of time periods I find super interesting and forcing myself to learn about the ones I don’t (after all, you ought to learn a little about a lot of things, even if you don’t much care for them), so I really appreciate your research and images! (ps have you ever thought about doing one for Katrina Von Tassel?)

Hilariously, yes!  I even have some very loose sketches of her costume:

STOP DISNEY FROM TRADEMARKING DIA DE LOS MUERTOS! I am signing this petition to stop Walt Disney from appropriating and exploiting Mexican religion and culture.

Dia de los Muertos is a religious observance during which people, and particularly native peoples, in Mexico, the United States, and abroad, honor ancestors and loved ones who have died. This important religious, spiritual, and cultural observance pre-dates the invasion of Mexico by the Spanish. We celebrate and honor our deceased loved ones by making altars and placing offerings of food such as pan de muertos baked in shapes of skulls and figures, candles, incense, yellow marigolds known as cempaxochitl, and offering prayers and the smoke of copal. 

I initially couldn’t believe this, so I verified it from another source. Ugh, I fucking hate Disney.

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION!

According to this (imo WAY too kind) article, this is re: Pixar’s newest project:

Among the trademark applications that The Walt Disney Company has filed for, are education and entertainment services, confectionery, cosmetics, transmission or reproduction of sound or images, computer programs, accessories, jewelry, paper articles, luggage, and more.

Even though the project is officially known (for now) as “The Untitled Pixar Movie about Dia de los Muertos,” filing the application might indicate that the movie could actually be called “Día de los Muertos,” and they want to play it safe with the name, since it’s a popular celebration.

So therefore Disney wants to appropriate Día de los Muertos and turn it into a fucking franchise to sell sugar skull necklaces to White people who have no fucking idea what the holiday is about or its pre-colonial significance.  This is not about ~spreading culture~ or ~celebrating Mexican culture~, it’s about commodifying culture.  Fuck Disney and Pixar for fucking trying this.

My first painting for the year! Imagine if Disney made a film in a purely Impressionistic style? My head would explode! I was watching gooey love films this afternoon and was feeling all romantic so I decided to paint a young couple enjoying the sun-dappled shade on a terrace in a Parisian garden. My stylistic aim: the thick, impasto and vibrant painting style of Edouard Manet fused with my beloved Disney toon aesthetic. My friend Shane O’brien was the inspiration for the young man.

Disney Cosplay at Fanime Con 2012 by Fisticuff-Cosplay 

All the outfits were made by the Tiana in the group. They were made using a realistic take on the traditional Disney ensembles! Inspiration was taken from the breath taking sketches by Claire Hummel!!

It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun at the same time! I can’t wait to continue with this and move forward with more Disney outfits!! I’m not really sure whats next!! Bring on the commissions I guess, lol! I’d really love to do a Cinderella….OOO or a Rapunzel! I have a few ideas already ;)

These are all portrayals (that I know of) of the Evil Queen (or versions of her) in movies and TV.

No Bashing!

• Christine White (Dianne Wiest) The 10th Kingdom
• Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) Enchanted
• The Queen (Julia Roberts) Mirror Mirror
• Lady Claudia Hoffman (Sigourney Weaver) Snow White: A Tale of Terror
• Elspeth (Miranda Richardson) Snow White: The Fairest of Them All
• Queen Grimhilde — Disney’s Snow White and The Seven Dwarves
• Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) Snow White and The Huntsman
• Queen Regina/Regina Mills (Lana Parilla) Once Upon A Time
• Toringian Queen/The Mirror Queen (Monica Belluci) The Brothers Grimm

Choose:

Who is the fairest one of them all?

Who is the most intimidating of them all?

What do you think?

Christine White is my evil queen. I may have seen Disney’s adaptation first, but The 10th Kingdom was the first fairy tale I ever really loved. The added story around her character makes her the best, though probably not the most intimidating nor the fairest. Most intimidating - well, that’s Disney. Fairest of them all? The one from Brothers Grimm is certainly sexy, but I’ll cast my vote in for Sigourney Weaver, because she’s a serious babe. No one’s sexier than Sigourney.

protect me, maria, don’t let this siren cast her spell
don’t let her fire sear my flesh and bone
destroy esmeralda and let her taste the fires of hell
or else let her be mine and mine alone

#this is basically the most dramatic reaction to a boner i’ve ever seen
