Spider-Dan recently did the first episode (a prologue, if you will) of Disney Discussions with Angry Andy’s partner Natalie, they discussed female villains’ many qualities and reflect on how they compare to a modern feminists’ view, especially compared to non-villainous Disney characters, listen here: https://spoti.fi/34j579H
This week is part 2, where Ria champions Moana and then Megan finishes the discussion with Tangled – the gang also talk about how older films paved the way for movies like Moana & Tangled to be made before their discussion comes to an end.
Last week, in part 1 of their discussion, Mike started their discussion with his champion; Hercules! After an in-depth discussion of the gang’s history with Hercules, it’s animation, characters, themes, music and connections to Greek mythology, Spider-Dan takes the reigns and talks about his champion; Beauty & The Beast (1991)! After an in-depth discussion on this (& Mike’s somewhat opposing viewpoints on it), Dan & Ria explain the specific importance of Belle as a character and Belle’s impact on Disney movies going forward.
