Sorry, But I Hate How Disney Just Decides To Make Everyone Look Like Rapunzel Instead Of Modeling Characters

Sorry, but I hate how Disney just decides to make everyone look like Rapunzel instead of modeling characters that actually look distinguishable.

Like seriously there are so many beautiful women out there:

Really dark skinned women

Albino women

Women with vitiligo (I added this guy too because he looks sick)

Women with unconventional (yet beautiful) facial features

Women with noses that don’t fit in the beauty standards:

Women with acne, feckles, birthmarks, scars, etc

Women with different eyebrows (or none!)

And there is honestly so much more I could add, but this post is getting long, it is a shame Disney doesn´t want variety. If you take a look at their concept art, there is some creativity, like Asha´s original pointy chin, but then they just ignore it and change the final draft to look like Rapunzel.

At this point representation isn´t even the main problem, cause if it depends on Disney they will make princesses of all etnicities that can be capitalized but all will look like frickin Rapunzel.

Although I loved the series and hate the movie, I have to admit.

Since the Percy Jackson series is coming, I feel like sharing my least favorite part of the movie that no one talks about.

Sally Ugliano

Remember how in the books they state that Sally never changed her surname as a way to rebel and maintain her independence?

Well screw that, she changed her name in this version!

By far one of the dumbest things I ever drew, but I don’t regret anything.

Bonus:

After Chalice of Gods ends and if Rick still wants to write Percy Jackson books, I think it would be cool to shift the focus and have Nico as the protagonist. Something like a Camp Half Blood next generation.

The thing about Nico is that he has a pattern in every series of always getting a confirmation that things will get better for him. And it isn’t a bad thing, it’s just that it never leads to a proper closure.

Percy staying with Annabeth and going to New Rome feels like an appropriate closure, since Percy’s whole goal through the books was to survive and hopefully live a happy life with the ones he loves.

Nico getting together with Will however, doesn’t seem like a proper ending, it feels more like a new beginning for a character that spent most of his life suffering without having any control.

And Nico is literally one of the most interesting characters. He is the only kid of the big three who is alive and didn’t have a support system or a place to call home until very recently. He struggles with the way he sees himself and even shows some signs of disorder eating. He can and has traveled the world through shadow traveling. He was frozen in time and lives in a completely different era, where he finally can be accepted as a gay person.

The thing I liked about tsats, was how Nico managed to work through his trauma and accept it, finally gaining control over his own life. But now that he has the control, what will he do next?

I think having a Nico centered series would be really cool, cause there are so many things that could be explored.

What will he do now? Will he go to school? Will he stay in the camp?

How is he adjusting to the modern world? What friends will he make along the way? How will he interact with the other campers?

How will he find his passion/goal in life and achieve it? How will his boyfriend help him?

There are just so many questions about this character that need to be answered. A series about Nico finding himself, learning how to adapt to the world around him and work through his trauma would be just amazing.
