Loving this movie.
Cinderella
While watching this movie last month, I keep thinking that the story reminds me of Les Miserables! Aside from the same filming location of France, certain scenes and characters remind of some characters from Les Miserables.
For example, during the scene after Lady Tremaine and the 2 stepsisters called Ella by her trademark name, Cinderella. The latter went to the kitchen and cried, that moment reminds me of I Dreamed a Dream where Fantine sings about her dream gets turn into a nightmare, the same with Ella.
Lady Tremaine and her daughters reminds me of Madame Thenadier and Eponine respectively, especially during Castle on a Cloud and On my Own during the dress ripping scene and the fitting the glass scene respectively.
Prince Kit reminds me of Marius and Enjolras because he played a most proactive role in the movie, the same with the latter. Kit's and Ella's dad reminds me of Monsieur Gillenormand and Valjean respectively, sadly Ella's dad died and he only gets like 30 minutes of screen-time in the beginning.
Finally, as Ella and Kit were about to leave, the former forgives her stepmother for her abusive tendencies towards Ella, sadly they were exiled along with the Grand Duke for attempting conspiracy.
Les Miserables
Okay, as I mentioned, certain things reminds me of Cinderella. The latter reminds me of lot of Cossette, because both of them are cheerful and optimistic, it was only during the abusive scene with her stepmother and Madame Thenadier that we have no choice but to feel sorry for them!
Javert reminds me of the Grand Duke due to their authoritarian tendencies, the only difference is that the latter is also like a chameleon like Hans. While the former is very straightforward, the grand duke was banished in the end for conspiracy while Javert chose death as his option.
Valjean also forgives Javert, because although the latter was doing his job. Valjean believes that forgiving will change him, but it did not and poor Javert committed suicide as mentioned.
I Dreamed a Dream
Well, this is another interesting comparison after Phantom of the Opera with Beauty and the Beast. Hope that you guys see the movie and the stage version of Les Miserables, then you will know what I meant.
Cossette and Marius.
Phantomrose89 came up with the great idea of writing these articles and I hope that mine won't bore you all to sleep xD

I'm sure that many of us (girls) dressed up in our childhood (and some of us maybe do it even now) as Disney Princesses. Or at least dressed up in rags pretending out them to be huge, sparkly gowns. The clothes of princesses is another thing that make their movies enchanting and nostalgic, especially those spectacular, gorgeous gowns. Here are the main gowns of each princess in order as you voted them. (If you want to see results of previous countdown, you can check old article link

The famous movie that everyone's talking about!
The storyline is amazing and partially unpredictable, reminds me of the Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter in a way. The colours are superb and multicoloured, really makes my day!
The characters are funny, witty and full of mysteries surrounding themselves, especially Rapunzel and Pascal. I really, REALLY love her as she became my #1 favourite suddenly!
To conclude my reviews are the music and the architect of the building, the song "I see the light" makes me cry as it again became my favourite and the tempo reminds me of "So Close" from Enchanted (which is the only song I like from Enchanted). Finally, the architect is beautiful that it looks like one of the castles from France. The roof itself looks very Bohemian and Medieval.
Well, that's my review and hope you enjoy reading it though it's not the best!
Love her very much!
Well.. I sorta got bored and decided to compile a list of my favourite DP songs in order and then averaged out the results to come up with a favourite soundtrack list. All images are mine. Hope this article turns out okay! I doubt many will agree with me ahah. Here goes..
(I'm ONLY counting songs btw, NOT the background score otherwise the list would be completely different)
#10. Sleeping Beauty
Coming in at last place is Sleeping Beauty. To be honest the only song I like from this movie is Once Upon A Dream, which I find is the perfect duet. The others are all well composed - maybe with...

Since most of the Disney princesses are derived from fairy tales they have gone through many transformations before Disney took their stab at it. I’m going to use the stories I grew up on as “the original”.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)
In the original Brothers Grimm story the evil queen tries three times before the poisoned apple to kill Snow White and fails, ones with a poison comb, once with a murderously tight hair ribbon and another time with a similarly tight corset. Each time she is saved by the dwarves. Disney also gets rid of the queens violent smashing of the magic...

If something's not right, you gotta put it right.
9. Snow White's Castle
I'm sorry, but the only thing that seems good about this place is that it has a few nice balconies that you can stand on while your man serenades you. Other than that, it's a very dark, eerie castle. Of course it's ran by an evil queen so that makes perfect sense.
8. Prince's Castle (Snow White)
The scene with the Prince's castle is one of the most beautiful scenes in all Disney movies however, we can't really see it. It seems more like a mirage made of light in the clouds if you ask me. It's obviously beautiful, but we have no idea what it actually looks like inside....
