After Moana: What's next for Disney?

So everyone's super exited for Moana, Disney's upcoming Hawaiian Fairy Tale Musical. It's been years since we had a non white Disney Princess, and fans are hyped for this new Polynesian Princess. So disney is finally thinking out of the box with their new feminist princesses (Tangled, Frozen,) and Multi cultural future (Moana). With all this progression, here are some pitch ideas for possible Disney movies.

12 Dancing Princesses

What's better than two Feminist friendly Disney Princesses? Twelve! Disney can tuen the highly sexist 12 Dancing Princesses fairy tale, and turn it into a movie about magic, dancing and female friendships. And, if they do make 12 Princesses, it would be a good opportunity to make a princess of a different shape. 


Swan Lake

Disney was gonna work on a Swan Lake inspired movie back in the 90's, but it was scrapped, and another movie, the Swan Princess, was made, and it was awful. But that doesn't mean Disney can't try again. It took them years to get Tangled into the big screen, and it was a huge success. If they decide to do another Swan Lake it could be to Russia what Frozen is to Norway. And it can also include the classic dances and music from the Ballet. 


Dyesebel

Dyesebel can be a good movie for Disney to make, if they want to continue on their Multi Cultural road. for those who don't know, Dyesebel is a popular Mermaid character in the Philippines. She has human parents, but she was born a mermaid. She later had to live in the sea and live with the Sirena, Filippino equivalent of a mermaid, and Syokoy, Filipino Mermen. Ariel is a very popular Disney Princes, partially because she's a mermaid, and kids love mermaids. SO think what another Mermaid character can do for the Disney Princess line up. Buckets upon buckets of money! that's what!



Pecos Bill, Paul Bunyan, John Henry & Sally Anne Thunder Anne Whirlwind 

Disney has done all types of movies. Fairy Tale, Children's book, Chinese legends, Greek Mythology, but never Tall Tales. Sure, they made shorts about it, and they have Frontierland at Disneyland, but these characters have never had their own movie! How come,Disney?!



Yeh-Shen: A Cinderella Story from China

Now, I know what you're thinking. "Disney already has Cinderella, it doesn't need another one!" True. But the Cinderella story is one of the most famous stories ever. And to here another version of it from another point of view is very intriguing. 


The Princes and the Treasure

It's 2015, Most if not all people are cool with Gays. Why not make a Fairy Tale musical about gay princes. It can be that they have to save a princess, but they hate each other in the beginning, then they become friends, and by the end, they fall in love and end the movie with a magical Fairy Tale kiss.
