Stupid In The Parks

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Stupid In The Parks

People asking Where is Princess Giselle?
Duh people, didn't they watch the whole movie?
She didn't marry the prince, She stayed with the guy who helped her.

Eh...I would give folks a pass on that. I mean, when the movie first came out, she was presented as Disney's latest princess. Even if she doesn't end up marrying the princess and therefore isn't "really" a princess, she still may be considered a Disney princess.

Now, to be fair, Enchanted wasn't exactly the "modern classic" Disney hoped it would be. So, I can understand both the lack of merchandise and such at Disney's shops and parks, and the fact that many people don't remember Giselle's name (or that, officially, she never really married into the title of "princess").

How about they just sell a life-size inflatable Amy Adams doll in the Emporium and we call it even?

Wait. I saw that movie. I thought she was already a princess before she was going to marry Prince Humperdinck or whatever-his-name-was. Am I confused. BTW, I love that movie. It's funny. But I don't think it could ever become a Disney classic because it is too satirical. JMHO.

It was Prince Edward ;)
But in the Princess Bride, Buttercup was going to get the title when she married Prince Humperdinck,so maybe in Fairy Tales that's all you have to do and not be of Royal Birth.....I think I heard when "Commoner" Kate marries William,she will only become a "Lady" :cool:

Well, that's weird, because Diana was a pre-school teacher and she became a princess when she married Charles, and Sarah Ferguson became a princess, but I don't think that old bag Camilla Bowles is a princess.

Kate should at least become the Duchess of Grand Fenwick or some such nonsense.
