As for replacing Mulan with Moana? Moana is a giant "meh" for me. Moana's Grandma Tala was way more interesting an individual than Moana was. Moana just kept being skittish about everything, and obsessed about what everybody thought of her. Moana's bruised ego problems got annoying really, really fast. Moana lacks courage, and is not a replacement for Mulan, and neither is Elena. And removing Mulan and Pocahontas would really get rid of most of my actual enthusiasm for Disney Princess. Removing Mulan and Pocahontas would be your solution, but it would definitely not be the solution for me. I grew up with them. And I don't like the "whims" of other people, deciding for me who is "available" as a princess.
i agree with misscinico that there's a difference between mulan and pocahontas - pocahontas is the daughter of the leader; mulan isn't remotely related to anyone in power.
I get that these are all technicalities, but for me I would like some basis for the rules on DP line or else I start asking questions like "why can't Esmeralda be one," and the like. I'd just like it if the rules for being an Official Disney Princess™ made sense. Since they are somehow supposed to be different than any old Disney heroine it doesn't make sense how Mulan is Included, but Kida, Jane, etc. are excluded, so instead of adding all of those I'd rather exclude Mulan and add heroines that actual fit the technicalities. Not that it really matters, I'm just particular like that.
I explained that a little more than I wanted to, but hopefully I don't seem all persnickety.
I mean, it just all has to do with marketability, but it does seem somewhat arbitrary. I classify it as any human female who is the main character and sings in the movie- This would eliminate almost everyone except for Alice, who I think is just too young, maybe? And doesn't include Jasmine, but she is actual royalty and her movie is successful. As for Kida & Jane, they don't sing nor at the leads, but Kida would fall under the same category as Jasmine, however Atlantis was NOT a financially successful movie.
And I would replace her with an actual good character (Esmeralda, Megara, Moana, etc.)
Yeah, it is mostly do to success that characters are Disney Princesses, and that's what I don't like about it, I would just want rules to make sense, like fitting a princess-esque description and being marginally successful. Since the question was who I would remove, I'm just explaining why, I didn't mean for this to become a thing.
