Ok, O Mighty F-List Who Knows All, the following is what I know about this upcoming Disney movie:
1. It's an adaptation of The Frog Prince.
2. It's Disney doing 2D animation
3. It has a black heroine
4. It's set in New Orleans, presumably at some point in the past.
Anyway, apparently there is some sort of huge controversy over it? Can anyone fill me in?
Also, does anyone know when it's coming out?

No. Methinks they just didn't want to have a human and an ogre mate (donkey/dragon was for the purpose of comedy and then cuteness (babies!) in the second one so that doesn't count). Or they wanted to do something different from the cliche. Which I get. Still though.
