WHAT IS GOING ON?! SINCE ALICE IN WONDERLAND IN 2010, WE'VE ALREADY HAD A TON ANNOUNCED:

Maleficent

Cinderella

Mulan

Jungle Book

Beauty And The Beast

Alice In Wonderland (Sequel)

Untitled Cruella Project

Untitled Prince Charming Project (that would be Cinderella's Henri, not Snow's Florian. In the Disney Canon, Henri is Charming, not Florian who is known as The Prince.)

Untitled Aladdin Project

And we still have more coming, I'm sure. They need to stop that, it's not a novelty anymore. They're also planning a film based on Night on Bald Mountain from Fantasia, one on Pinocchio, one for Pete's Dragon, one for Winnie the Pooh, and one for Dumbo if I remember correctly. It's getting way out of hand. At this rate, they're going to just keep making animated movies and remaking them as live action. It's definitley a money grab, nothing more. I'm actually extremely hyped for the Chernabog one, I can't believe I forgot it. (Well, Chernabog and Mulan. As long as they're properly done.)

But... the original Fantasia segment was like 8 minutes long, how will they stretch that out into 90? I know Chernabog is based off of some god of the night in some European culture (I wanna say Romanian or Russian but I can't remember just now...), so maybe they'd play off of that god's mythology... but still... To respond to this, the Sorcerer's Apprentice from Fantasia (and Fantasia 2000) was another 8 or so minute clip, but Disney managed a feature length live action movie using that as a basis. So basing another one on "Night on Bald Mountain" would, unfortunately, not be a stretch. However, I hope they stop there, We don't need any movies about dancing Hippos, and they would be better served to go to the original source if they want to do Nutcracker (again, I personally hope not, though there are elements of that story that could work).

However, This is, again, off topic. This thread is for our thoughts and ideas on a new princess/female protagonist to introduce. I know it's hard (heaven only knows how often I stray off topic from time to time), but let's at least try to stay on topic.
