Behold: my latest countdown results! Since my Smiles countdown seemed to be liked pretty well, I did another one, this time with the Best First Meeting between DP couples. Reminder: if the couple "meets" more than once (i.e. Tiana and Naveen, Ariel and Eric, Aurora and Philip) I put the more interesting one here to be fair, otherwise they would be voted out pretty much instantly. Enjoy! :)
#10: Belle and Beast's (Adam) Meeting
I kind of liked this one because it was pretty different from the others. Instead of a romantic and cute meeting, Beast scares the stuffing out of Belle during their first meeting. Most people don't agree, though. They said it was way too scary, not romantic, etc. But I guess this is just one of the things that Belle and Beast get to go out first.
Comments:
"Seriously? Absolutely. Belle is terrified with Beast's monstrous look and horrible treatment. And she was his prisoner!" ~3xZ
"Adam and Belle' s was such a dramatic and sad scene. For some reason, I love it." ~MalloMar
#9: Mulan and Shang's Meeting
Okay, Mulan and Shang's meeting was just awkward, But to me it deserved slightly higher than this. But honestly, I wouldn't want to meet my future husband this way. It was pretty interesting though!
Comments:
"It is very awkward and not as funny as it is supposed to be. It is just boring to be honest." ~Jayden-G
"I liked Mulan and Shang's a lot better than Punz and Flynn's, Cindy and Charming's, and Aurora and Philip's." ~CRaZy_rawR
#8: Cinderella and Charming's Meeting
Really, this is the most boring meeting. Ever. I'm sorry, this meeting is just not that interesting. Cindy walks into the ball. Charming sees her. He goes up to her and kisses her hand. They dance. How does a meeting get any more boring than that? However, it was slow and romantic and at least had a build-up and aftermath, unlike lots of the other meetings on this list.
Comments:
"He looks at her after yawning at the other woman and kisses her hand because he likes the way she looks. Given the fact that neither knew one another's name at the end of the evening, they did not even introduce to one another properly, but that would not be a problem if it was an interesting meeting." ~Jayden-G
"Cinderella and Charming's is more romantic and love at the first sight <3" ~3xZ
#7: Rapunzel and Flynn's Meeting
I thought this meeting was cute, but obviously Fanpop doesn't agree. They say the humour was forced, she knocks him out THREE times (very true...) and the dialogue is ridiculous. Well, it's probably not the best meeting, it would have had to leave sooner or late anyways.
Comments:
"So boring and the humor part seems to be forced. It's like a copy of Tiana and Naveen's meeting. Their introducing themselves is too much like Tiana and Naveen's. In fact, Rapunzel's hitting Flynn with the pan resembles Tiana's hitting Naveen with the book!" ~LightningRed
"I find Rapunzel and Flynn's meeting very funny." ~BraBrief
#6: Tiana and Naveen's Meeting
I liked this one! This was funny. But I would not want to meet my future husband as a frog (not that I have something against frogs) and I'm sure my future husband would NOT have liked it if I slapped him with a book during our first meeting.
Comments:
"Funny, how she jokingly asks for a kiss. It's entertaining, but the others seem sweeter, more classic." ~MalloMar
"It resembles Rapunzel & Flynn's." ~dimitri_
#5: Aurora and Philip's Meeting
To be honest, this meeting was kind of creepy. He just kept grabbing her and he didn't let her go. And Aurora taught us to not talk to strangers unless they are hot and happen to serenade you with a love song. For all she knew he could have been a rapist or something.
Comments:
"I don't like this meeting because Aurora at first "refuses" Phillip but very easily want to dance, sing, and in the end too quick to let him meet her right that evening in the glen after she says, "Never, never". So inconsistent!" ~LightningRed
"Aurora & Phillip have one of the best meetings." ~dimitri_
#4:Jasmine and Aladdin's Meeting
This is my personal fave. I love how Jasmine pretends to be mentally ill and Aladdin saves her. Okay, the saving part is pretty cliche, but it's still awesome. It was also entertaining! But people mainly voted this out because it was cliche, unromantic, uninteresting, etc. But I'm glad it made it this high, even if the top three was pretty disappointing...
Comments:
"I won't want to meet my love before I get my arm chopped off." ~princecatcher93
"Saving/helping his future lover for the first meeting is quite often. Besides the marketplace is not a beautiful place for meeting. Yet I like how Aladdin stares at her even before he knows her. :3" ~LightningRed
#3: Snow White and Prince's Meeting
Okay. This meeting was cute, but has anyone thought about the possibility that the Prince has just illegally trespassed into Snow's property? No? Yes? Well, a lot of commenters did, and I realized after reading their comments. I liked this meeting very much, it was cute and the songs were nice, but this meeting has no build-up or aftermath. She just closes the curtain. The end.
Comments:
"I love Snow White's and the Prince. And besides Snow's not dressed in a sail on the beach." ~princecatcher93
"Anyway..as far as Prince and Snow White are concerned...
It started out as a great meeting with the whole song and the sudden appearance but at the end it was like...
''OH, what a handsome and sweet guy...oh, let's hide!! Wait, what, is he singing to me? Let's send him a bird to show him I like it... Oh, now, I have reds cheeks.. What a beautiful song!!! LETS CLOSE THE CURTAIN!!!!
---
and after that? No talking, no clue..nothing.the prince just leaves.
They should talk to each other and agree they'd meet again." ~PociandSmith
#2: Ariel and Eric's Meeting
This meeting was... good. It was interesting, it was funny, it was a little more original than some other ones, and it had a build-up. But the really random things were one: Ariel couldn't talk and somehow expects Eric to understand by waving her arms about. Two: Ariel keeps staring at Eric creepily. Three: there was no aftermath. We just skip right to Ariel taking a bubble bath.
Comments:
"Ariel and Eric's just happens in a flash and then we cut to a bubble bath." ~Macythe Strange
"I think the Ariel and Eric one is cute." ~VGfan30
#1: Pocahontas and John Smith's Meeting
TBH this was a really disappointing countdown. I am not happy with the top 3. But I did vote for this meeting to win in the final round because it was more enchanting, the animation was good, the music was great and it was slightly more romantic than Ariel and Eric's. I have two problems with this meeting though. In fact, most people seem to have these problems too. First, Poca randomly learns English, also, John points a gun at her. Which, by the way, is NOT the safest way to treat a person. But I guess it was better that this had won, after all, a lot of the meetings WERE worse than this.
Comments:
"Only because of how she suddenly and inexplicably is capable of speaking English. If it weren't for that I'd love it." ~MaidofOrleans
"Eric and Ariel is more comical but Pocahontas and John's meeting is enchanting. Everything bad they assumed about the other is forgotten and the music is stunning." ~dancing_dear
