In The Frozen Theory I argue that Elsa and Rapunzel prove that only blonde princesses in the unified Disneyverse develop superpowers.
Now a new idea is contradicting that theory by suggesting that a certain other Disney princess has superpowers too.
Before we explore this theory, let’s look at the evidence:
We all know many of the most popular Disney movies are based on fairy tale classics, but how much of these tales have been ‘Disneyfied’ for family-friendly ratings?
See below for the shocking stories behind your Disney favourites. If you know any other fairy-tale origins I would love to read them in the comments.
Reddit is a perfect breeding ground for Disney theories (a fact previously proven true with The Frozen Theory).
This time the proposal comes from reddit-user, OstrichMadeOfClay:
‘In The Lion King, Mufasa is responsible for the drought.’
I thought this was worth exploring in more than 57 words, and the longer I looked, the more sense it made. So I present to you:
The Lion King, dictating how newborn babies and new puppies are terrorised since 1994.
One of the most contentious ideas I suggested in The Disney Theory was that there are some Disney films that also exist as fictional films within the Disneyverse.
Obviously this concept requires some brain-bending to make any sense, but the evidence supporting it seemed compelling enough for its own article.
While writing The Jane Theory the pieces really began to fall in to place. Here I discovered that the Disneyverse has its own Walt Disney, and that man is in fact:
While looking for details to support the theory connecting Frozen‘s King and Queen to Tarzan‘s parents, I actually found more compelling evidence to suggest Tarzan‘s Jane is related to Belle.
Not one to walk away from a good Disney theory, I thought it was worth presenting that evidence.
So here it is:
In my Disney world article, I point out that a teapot looking like Mrs. Potts from Beauty and the Beast appears in Tarzan. That theory suggests its another symptom of Disney’s erratic magical characters, but what if it wasn’t?
That is some hard-wearing table-wear! (Chip notwithstanding)
What if the tea-set Tarzan’s gorilla-friend Terk is drumming on is actually a centuries-old heirloom from the Porters’ noble past? In fact, it could be just one of the clues connecting Jane Porter to Belle from Beauty and the Beast.
