Let's focus less on "Disney" and more on the real greats. Movies like Zootopia, Robin Hood, Secret of NIHM, Cats don't Dance. . . . uhhhh, other movies.

I really intensely disliked Big Hero 6, but I think that's just because I hate the "hackerspace LOL" romaticization of science and couldn't get over that aspect.

My mother has placed an inflatable, light-up Olaf in front of the house as her primary Christmas decoration.

I don't think Disney sticking to one style for years at a time is harmful, even with some characters' faces slotting over each other like a tracing. It forces them to distinguish the characters by movement and personality instead of facial structure. Even though Elsa and Anna have identical faces, you' ll never see them produce the same silhouette simply because of how differently they carry themselves. Jasmine, Belle, and Ariel could slot over each other the same way and they stood out from each other fine.

Edit: I added spoiler tags because this is more a CineD thing. But if we're going that way anyway, then feel free to unspoiler for my take on this increasingly contentious issue.

I disagree because ultimately women boil down to their looks and things like "personality" and "carriage" are basically unwanted side-effects.

So, to truly represent the feminine spectrum, rather than present women as being different people, we ought present them as different looks.
