So, was Merida (Brave / Valiente) a culturechanging phenomenom? Merida came in in late 2015, more than 3 years after the movie was released. Wasn't Merida the first independent princess that didnt need a man, something that pretty much changed the game for Disney? She couldn't have stayed out of OUAT. She was the first official princess to not have a love interest, but that was mostly because Brave was a Pixar movie and Pixar doesn't do love stories very often anyway (except as subplots, like McQueen and Sally), so I don't think that counts as changing the game. Either way, it still wasn't as big of a deal as Frozen.
