The Princess and the Frog

[meganbmoore]

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?

I heard some complaints over her hair being in line with European beauty standards though I couldn't find a link to such right now.

I did notice that she seems to be in the typical European Disney Princess getup in the pictures I've seen. (Specifically, it reminds me of Conderella.)

LOL Conderella is a great typo. What is that, like Condoleeza Rice as Cinderella? XD (Or maybe it's an all-bird version, where Cinderella is a condor!)

Now you have me imagining both! Curse you!

I believe they changed that because I saw all the promo artwork and she has natural hair. That was one think I was really happy they changed.
