As I was creating my アイコン for Team Merida, I realised exactly why I loved this girl. As a result, I decided to write an 記事 with 5 reasons why everybody should 愛 Merida/Brave
1. メリダとおそろしの森 was the first ピクサー・アニメーション・スタジオ film that had a female protagonist.
ピクサー・アニメーション・スタジオ is a hugely successful company, but it took about 8 years since they first started making films for them to make a movie where the main character was a girl. Before メリダとおそろしの森 was made, I was slightly annoyed at ピクサー・アニメーション・スタジオ - most of it's films didn't even pass the Bechdel test. I 愛 メリダとおそろしの森 because it finally featured an awesome female character.
2. Merida is a great role-model, just the same as some of the other girls
Perhaps Merida isn't your first thought when it comes to good role-model. A lot of people call her "spoilt" and "a brat". However, stop to think about it. There is something in Merida's life that she doesn't like, so she makes a HUGE effort to change it. She doesn't just accept a bad fate. There are millions of teenagers in abusive または bad situations and Merida can act as a perfect role-model to 表示する teens they can change their life!
3. Merida is the first princess with brothers
I have ALWAYS wished for a princess film that showed an accurate portrayal about the brother/sister relationship. And while メリダとおそろしの森 didn't have much of a focus on the four siblings, at least it was a start. I WANT もっと見る PRINCESSES WITH BROTHERS
4. Merida is the first princess who didn't end up with a 愛 interest.
I guess to some people this would not seem very significant, but I feel it is very important that girls see that a princess doesn't have to eventually end up with a prince/love interest. あなた don't need a man to live happily ever after. メリダとおそろしの森 teaches girls that life is about finding yourself, not romantic love.
5. Merida gets a lot of unfair criticism
As mentioned earlier, Merida is often (unfairly) called a spoiled brat because of the way she reacts when she finds out she is being forced into marriage. But, realistically,how would あなた feel if あなた were sixteen and looking フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして to studying at 大学 so あなた can go and live your dreams. Suddenly, your parents tell あなた none of that is going to happen and あなた have to give up your dreams and get married. Any arguement あなた make is completely ignored. Oh, and によって the way, あなた have no choice in who あなた marry and your husband is a complete stranger who あなた have never spoken too. I'm guessing any sane person would react the same way Merida did.
That concludes this article. I would really be interested to hear your thoughts.
