Once Upon a Time: Ariel (2013)
Disappointed
So far I've never seen an episode that angered me as much as this one.. I've read all of the fairy tales in this series and so far I've loved how they mixed all of them together and I like how they have been able to rethink Peter Pan as a villain.. Here's my problems
1. Ariel is in it!! She actually dies in her real fairytale 2. It's not the fairytale, but the Disney version of the fairytale which only has about 5 things right. 3. Ursula is Regina in yet another form (Ursula isn't evil in the original story, just a sea witch getting paid for her service. she makes her dance beautifully instead of singing and even let the sisters of Ariel give Ariel a choice to either live or kill the man who married another woman whom she loves)
I almost turned it off but kept going because I hoped it would get better.. It didn't and even the stories going on besides the Ariel one.. Wasn't impressed..
The Prince & Me II: The Royal Wedding (2006)
Just bad
I'm very sorry. But this movie is really bad in my eyes. It does however get points for being sweet.. As a Danish woman I can't help but notice that the Danish is just.. HORRIBLE.. The kings name would never be a Danish king and his mother and father are still alive, so I can't imagine that he has the throne just yet. (Not even our Crown Prince has it yet) A Danish king is ALWAYS either called Frederick or Christian. I had my doubt when starting the movie, but I was still shocked. I feel this is much worse than the first where there was, at least, some Danish actors who spoke it fluently. If they wanted "King Edward" to speak Danish he should be able to speak it fluently. I will not watch this movie again.. I've rarely been this disappointed at a movie within the first 10 minutes.
The story is very much American, I can not see how this would happen in Denmark. Our princes are both married to girls from different countries, so that he is supposed to marry Paige, is in my mind, very believable. I think it is cute.. But being Danish.. This does not fit my culture at all.
