The Merida petition currently lists over 200,000 individuals who have signed the letter to Iger. The new Merida character was unveiled as the 11th official princess at Disney World last weekend. “When little girls say they like it because it’s more sparkly, that’s all fine and good but, subconsciously, they are soaking in the sexy ‘come hither’ look and the skinny aspect of the new version. “Disney marketing and the powers that be that allow them to do such things should be ashamed of themselves,” said Chapman to her local paper, the Marin Independent Journal. In the movie, the character is seen wielding a bow and arrow, while the new look Merida (see design here) was given what one Jezebel writer deemed “a pretty pretty princess makeover” in appearance and dress.Ĭhapman, the director of the Disney/Pixar film before being replaced by Mark Andrews during filming, agreed with the protests. STORY: ‘Brave’ Director Slams Disney for Redesign of Princess Characterĭisney has seen a wave of protests online about the newly redesigned princess. Although there are no product placements in the movie, there's a ton of Brave merchandise available, particularly aimed at girls.“Numerous supporters have written to us to share the news that the new makeover version of Merida is no longer appearing on ,” wrote Carolyn Danckaert, co-founder of the website A Mighty Girl, who launched the petition calling for Disney to “say no to the Merida makeover.” The petition included a letter to Disney chairman Robert Iger. There's no romance for Princess Merida, but you can expect a few jokes about men being naked under their kilts a couple of scenes even include quick glimpses of naked cartoon bums belonging to men and three young boys. The first Pixar movie to revolve around a female main character, Brave does have a strong message about family relationships and open communication between parents and kids (particularly mothers and daughters). There's also a lot of brawling among the Scotsmen, who use both weapons (arrows, swords, etc.) and their bodies (fists, teeth) on each other.
A moment when the mom-turned-bear temporarily forgets she's human and growls at her daughter could upset younger kids. Several intense sequences involve a large angry bear that attacks the main characters - which are even more so when seen in 3-D - and (possible spoiler alert) a possibly disturbing but mostly comical transformation of a mother into a bear. Parents need to know that Brave is pretty scary for a "princess movie," especially for kids under 7 and/or those who are very sensitive to peril.
