Do Traditional Disney Princesses Need Fixing? Modern Remakes Make It Seem That Way

Disney has taken to remaking all its classic animated Princess movies, which sometimes makes it seem as if these heroines need “fixing.” This idea has been furthered by comments from figures within the studio, noting that characters like Snow White or Aurora don’t align with feminist concepts. In truth, these Disney princesses have always been excellent characters, with morals and goals that align with those of countless women worldwide. Still, Disney continues to put out movies that feature female characters that are drastically different than the ones that put the studio on the map to begin with.
