I guess that was kind of cute. I will wait for it to come out on DVD and gather the neighbor kids and my grown kids to watch and critique it like “Sisco and Ebert”.
I can’t WAIT to see it – but I hope she’s not a frog the whole movie. I want to see a black princess represented loud and proud during the majority of the film!

Tara, that was my thought. Watching the video, she kisses the frog and turns into one herself. I am wondering if the story is suppose to be true to the saying of life “you have to kiss a few frogs to get your Prince”. LOL. I actually want to watch the movie so I can say ok or Hell NO!
it looks like a cute flick…i’m with tara, though. it would be pretty insulting if she were a frog for more than half of the film.
I’m guarantee that whatever happens in the film half of black people will be up in arms about it. SMH

SMH…you’re probably right, Lamar. I’m just going to watch it from entertainment’s point of view. It almost looks like a cartoon version of “Eve’s Bayou.” But for sure, I’m not going to look to a cartoon to make a statement beyond golden rule-isms they generally give.
I’m so looking forward to this movie. More importantly, I hope it positively impacts my daughter and my nieces. I wrote about it here:

SJays last blog post..Just how does one earn an honorary degree from ASU?
The trailer is very cute and I have high hopes. I agree with with being greatly concerned if the little princess that has long been lauded as being Disney’s first time putting a human face on a Black character turns out to be portrayed as a frog, and not a beautiful little girl. It’s so important that our children see themselves in the media images that surround them everyday. And those images need to be both reflective of our actual lives as well as being aspirational.
