Doesn't Tiana crush Facilier's amulet under her heel? Maybe I'm getting it confused with a scene from Anastasia.

Tiana destroys his amulet by using her tongue to grab it from him and then just smashing it on the ground.

Elsa might have a bodycount, due to unexpected winter, but it's never shown. I don't think she's yet an official Disney Princess either.

Of course, one would be a fool to assume she won't be sooner than later.

I want the Disney Princess lineup to put in all of Ariel's sisters, because it's probably hard to be the crown Princess of Atlantica when your youngest sister is a protagonist, and thus a million times more important than you will ever be.

Also I question Elsa's inclusion due to her 'Queen' status.

Moana is looking awesome, can't wait to see it.

If, as it seems, magic is now required for Disney Princesses, might I suggest basing their next movie on Himiko, the Shamman Queen of Wa.

I honestly would love to see how you'd alter the heartwarming story of a fourteen-year-old girl using magic to force people to make her queen and then lock herself up in a giant palace with a thousand women to fit what people expect out of a Disney film.

For some reason that plot synopsis makes me think of Elsa from Frozen, so obviously there's something to work with there

If Disney can turn The Hunchback of Notre Dame into a child-friendly story, I'm sure they'll be able to do the same for Himiko.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

Have the country's chieftains squabbling while she quietly helps out, giving advice and working magic, and then the people, frustrated with their leaders squabbling, elect her because she's been so helpful and sincere. Suddenly she's thrust into the spotlight of rulership and has to prove herself all over again to those she's just usurped.

Turn her palace of 1000 women into a giant slumber party or something. Could make for a fun dance number.

Alternatively, make older Himiko the figure that future queen Iyo has to live up to, and when she passes Iyo has to step up and follow Himiko's example at the age of 13.

Anyone know why some countries are getting this movie as "Vaiana" instead of Moana? The Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Spain, among others. I can't speak for everyone, but it's not like Moana is confusing to pronounce if you're Dutch.

The Moana name is apparently trademarked in some European countries, same reason that Zootopia was called Zootropolis in the UK.

Also, that trademark is apparently associated with a porn star? So, yeah, probably not the best thing to associate a Disney film with.

She's a queen, not a princess. I never understood including her, its more infuriating than including Mulan.

Lol at your fury.

She was a princess during the movie. Many only became a princess for a moment at the end of a movie.

Also Disney Princesses don't have to be princesses any more than the little kids getting made up at the parks and subsequently called princesses by cast members are literal royalty.

Kinda like how rapunzel is still depicted with the hair.
But they already made a short film with her regular hair so it's odd they still depict her as blonde in merchandise. You'd think they would want to court the brunettes with short hair

And Elsa was made Queen like 10 minutes into the movie. The whole movie is about how she uses her powers at her coronation. The book it's based off of is called the snow QUEEN. I use infuriating without much seriousness, but cmon.
