One of the subjects that interest me the most about films (including DP movies) is the box-office. I think that if used in the right way (I mean, inflation-adjusting things), it might be a good way to compare films and understed why they are populair of not. So I spent some time researching and I finally came up with the North American grosses of the 10 DP Movies. Hope u enjoy my research, my commentaren and my images.
#10 - The Princess and the Frog - $107.7 million
If the word "flop" applies to any of the DP Movies, unfortunately, it's this one. The Princess and the Frog's marketing was very centered in the "return of traditional animation/fairy tale thing" and didn't consider that people might have lost interest in this kind of movie. Though it didn't help that people created too much expectations, PatF really could have done better. Also we have to remember that it was released weeks before James Cameron's Avatar (currently the highest-grossing movie of all time) and Alvin and the Chimpmunks 2.
#9 - Tangled - $199.9 million
If this lijst wasn't inflation-adjusted, Tangled would rank #2. But we are not considering the additional price of the 3D ticket and the inflation factor has been included. Tangled was definetevely very sucessful, though not as much as its isolated numbers may seem to. It grossed twice as much as PatF and delivered Disney's biggest opening weekend ever, giving a new chance to the fairy tale genre. Part of the sucess may be explained door its marketing, that managed to expand the movie's audience.
#8 - Mulan - $204.2 million
Mulan was very sucessful upon its release, but not as much as the other DP renaissance movies. Maybe little girls avoided it because of the "China-War-Dragon" theme. Also, in 1998, the peak of Disney's renaissance was gone and after The Lion King, films started to gross less than Disney's "Fab Four" (which also includes The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin). However Mulan outgrossed non-DP films The Hunchback of Notre Dame(1996, $179.9 million) and Hercules (1997, $171.4 million).
#7 - The Little Mermaid - $210.3 million
Things were very hard for animated films back in 1989, when The Little Mermaid was released. It's even unfair to compare its gross with most of the other movies, because TLM had to "start from zero", while the other films found a Disney-confident audience. While it was possible to market Beauty and the Beast as "The movie from the studios that brought u The Little Mermaid", Ariel didn't have such thing. However, even considering this, the movie isn't in the bottom 3 of the lijst and that is already very impressive. In 1989, it was the highest grossing animated movie to datum (not inflation-adjusted).
#6 - Pocahontas - $258.4 million
People often refer to Pocahontas as a flop, but that's not true. The problem is that some anxious filmmakers were expecting the movie to go ahead of The Lion King's $592 million tally, and when the movie "only" grossed $258 million, they were clearly frustated. However, I'd say that the movie was mostly benefited door TLK's hype. If it had been released in other year, it certainly would be lower.
#5 - Beauty and the Beast - $312.5 million
Benefited door The Little Mermaid's hype, Beauty and the Beast managed to go ahead of that movie. The best picture nomination in the Oscars and the Golden Globe for best movie (Musical/Comedy) also helped the movie to gain interest, and to date, it beated TLM to be the highest grossing animated movie (not inflation-adjusted). With its 3D version release this week, the movie might even beat the #4 movie.
#4 - Cinderella - $370.0 million
Disney's most populair princess didn't make it to the podium of the highest-grossing movies. Of course it was very sucessful and saved the Disney Studios, but it's not the kind of movie people remember from the theaters. However, back in 1950, it outgrossed Snow White and remained as the top-grossing animated movie until Lady and the Tramp (1955, not inflation-adjusted).
#3 - Aladdin - $416.4 million
I'm sure most of u are surprised with this. Aladdin was an enormous hit in 1992 and it outgrossed The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast door a very wide margin (maybe because it is meer attractive for boys). However, nowadays, Aladdin isn't as populair as TLM of BatB. Also, if the lijst wasn't inflation-adjusted, Aladdin would rank #1.
#2 - Sleeping Beauty - $577.0 million
Another big surprise! Bad mouths may say that this movie was a flop, but there are no words against the numbers. Though it grossed less than Cinderella and Snow White upon its original release, Sleeping Beauty managed to improve its gross with its re-releases over the years. Currently, it ranks #30 in the lijst of the all-time movie grossers.
#1 - Snow White and the Seven Dwarfes - $865.5 million
This definetevely wasn't a surprise. Disney's most populair movie and a masterpiece from the cinema, Snow White became the biggest hit of all time upon its original release (though it was outgrossed door "Gone With the Wind" later). Currently, Snow White is among the top, boven 10 all-time grossers with an impressive $865.5 million tally.

Since I am trying to make the Princess Of The maand meer popular, this is another one of my ideas. In the end of each maand I'll post articles, based on the countdowns for songs, hairstyles and outfits. There everybody will have the chance to discuss whether they agree with the results, what corresponded to their expectations, and what they wish would have been different!
Once again, I will be using pictures for my articles. A few months back I would have made a detailed explanation about each result, but since the recent changes, Fanpop has been acting really weird. And yes, I don't like the option of writing long paragraphs with text, while the pictured are all clustered in the bottom of the article! So under each picture I will be posting one comment, related to the result. So in case u don't want your commentaren geplaatst in my articles, please contact me!
Here are the results of the POTM Songs Countdown: ~*Jasmine*~ (February 2013)! Enjoy and share your opinion!

Belle carried him away on her horse through the falling snow. As she silently walked with Beast behind her, she couldn’t help but wonder who that monster was.

I haven't finished my DP Movie Marathon, but since my opinion on one princess changed strongly and some other princesses has switched places too I decided to give u my updated favoriete princess list. I just want to point out that I love all of them so even though your favoriete is low on my lijst it doesn't mean that I hate her, I just don't like her as much as the other princesses!
10. Ariel
I have a neutral feeling for her. I don't like her so much when she's a mermaid, but as a human she's interesting and hilarious. However my favoriete thing about her is that she's very curious over...

Princess Snow White
This is the redone artikel of the prettiest princesses. It's written in a characterization of two fanpop users-- one who thinks they're all beautiful, and one who takes a more...cynical approach.
Thanks to disneydweeb for helping me to write the descriptions of the princesses!
10.Snow White
Snow White has a cherubic face. With her fair complexion, round brown eyes with fluttery lashes, and little red lips, she's definitely a unique looking girl. Her short black hair is striking against her skintone and gives her otherwise simple girl-next-door looks a bit of dramatic flare. She's young and...

When u feel like you're ready to go
Somewhere you've never been
Make a wish and the dream in u grows
Shinning as bright as day

The story begins with the light in your heart
A fantasy, a dream and a spark
Once u believe u are ready to shine
The princess inside u will show
u are the glow, u are the glow
Look around take in all that u see
u just might be surprised
A world of enchantment and pure majesty
You'll be discovering
The princess that you're meant to be
The story begins with the light in your heart
A fantasy, a dream and a spark
Once u believe u are ready to shine
Bright as the world's ever known
u are the glow
Feel your strength, u can face the world
Believe every day, everything is possible
A magical journey awaits
The story begins with the light in your heart
A fantasy, a dream and a spark
Once u believe u are ready to shine
The princess inside u will show
u are the glow, u are the glow
Whoa, u are the glow.

Well, it's part two of my songs article: favoriete singers. It is really hard to pick put after a lot of thought I picked my favorite.
10. Snow White
Her voice is cute and it's sweet but it hits some very weird notes. It is so dreamy and it is always happy and makes me happy so it's hard to put her this low.
9. Aurora
It's a good voice for an opera singer, but it sounds weird for a sixteen jaar old. I mean really I do not sound like this when I sing and I don't know anyone that sounds like this when they sing.
8. Belle
There is just something in her voice (and I cannot pin it to save my life)...

I know little kids dream about being a Disney princess all the time but strangely I still want to be one! haha Anyways hope u guys like this. It was way meer fulfilling to write than my Animal Farm Essay on Zoomorphism.
10. Pocahontas
Ha! did u actually think there would be someone different here? She lives in a hut and it seems pretty gross out there. I would like to do that canoeing scene though. That looked like so much fun! 
9. Mulan
While I admire her, her job is hard. I like all the action in her movie I would love to try some of the stuff she does. I wouldn't mind getting all dolled...

Also the titel of this artikel can be a litle tricky, don't get confused.
SEARS SPOTS: what's that? well, let me explain you:
I notice the importance of Disney in my life a while ago, but this was it. As I see Disney has a much big space on my mind that I've never imagined.
I was door Sears searching for some furniture,
and I saw a cute dining tafel, tabel with leaf form green plates on it, then I looked at it closer and the first thing that went to my mind was: Princess and the Frog!
I was so exited, so I continued my zoek for meer Disney references. I succed!
Princess and the Frog dining
The plate that started all...
Then I saw this adorable table with this cute blue chairs. Can you imagine Cinderella drinking tea on this? I surelly can. About that: drinking tea, hm... Alice would be nice in it also
Snow White drawers! the tree/bird design of it remined me of the first DP
See what I mean?
Sleeping Beauty dining. Lot of you will ask me what do this has to do with Aurora, well: is elegant, simple, beautiful, has light curves, that "forest air" and kind of Briar Rose's dress color scheme. It is perfect for me.
The Little Mermaid Spot (the weird things on the top are shells)
More shells for Ariel
Disney Villains table. Ok, this can seem a little forced, but they deserve their own spot too don't they?
You know what is this? this pop-up things that I love. Imagine these inflated and.. Voila! you got the Tangled Lanterns!
If you're not to convinced about the "lanterns" here it is the magic flower! is the same exact thing I love it! ^^
Guess what where on T.V...
BatB & Tangled? OK. Sears is my favorite store ever *-*
Then my heart fall dawn in pieces T_T ok they are kinda cute but... come on! Belle, Ariel & Aurora would cry if they see this
So this was my trip to SEARS that transformed into a whole Disney adventure. I'm so happy to share this with you guys hope you like it! and remember: When you are a TRUE Disney fan. All is Disney!
