So I really, really, really upendo the Disney Princess dance sequences, particularly with the waltz, as I find it to be so sweepingly romantic! The uhuishaji of the dance, the way the dress twirls with the women, the romantic and powerful score in the background, the gorgeous scenery in the background and the usually gorgeous dress worn kwa the princess... I upendo everything about these sequences! That's not to mention the onyesha of romantic upendo developing. I am very much an old soul so I really upendo the process of "courting" which often included the man taking the woman out to dance au dancing with her at some point before they've ever even kissed au held hands. Also, if wewe didn't guess, I upendo dancing (especially ballet and contemporary). Since I recently did a kura ya maoni with these dance scenes, I thought it would be fun to rank them. So here is my ranking of all of the little dance sequences in Disney Princess films. I hope wewe guys enjoy it and I'd upendo to hear your comments!:
10. charlotte & "Naveen": I thought this dance was really boring. I'm sorry to Charlotte-lovers but I really don't appreciate her spoiled brat, ungrateful, gold-digging, aggressive personality. I know, I know, she has some good traits too like she is loyal, considerate, empathetic and kind. Unfortunately it's her bad side that's highlighted in this dance and not her good side. I could feel her aggressive nature during the whole dance. The way she points at the prince to Tiana really kills it for me because she wasn't genuinely falling for him. Additionally, I don't like the close-up on the waltz because I like to see the entire dress when spins and turns are done.
9. Rapunzel & Eugene: I'm sorry but I have to be honest, I really don't like Rapunzel & Eugene as a couple, they are my least favorite. That being said, I actually really upendo the "Kingdom Dance" scene in Tangled but I was disappointed that Rapunzel & Eugene never danced together. They participated in the group dance but I prefer the beautiful romantic waltz so for this countdown, this kind of had to be very low.
8. Tiana & Naveen: Short, simple, sweet. zaidi along the jazz/swing style but still a really cute scene, in my opinion. (And I absolutely adore swing dancing and wish it would make a comeback!) I upendo how Naveen catches Tiana and spins her around. I also upendo how they dance their way from the balcony to the rooftop under the stars. Very beautiful scene and nice, upbeat little song. Romantic yet upbeat ending.
7. Anna & Hans: Possibly one of the shortest waltz scenes but gorgeously animated nonetheless. I upendo to see the twirl of the dress as well as the partner spins, I think it's so beautiful. The "Winter Waltz" is one of my inayopendelewa scores from a Disney princess film. I upendo the sweeping and gorgeous feel of it.
6. Belle & Beast: Iconic movie, dress, song and scene: It's all there! I upendo this scene a little zaidi than I upendo the dance sequence though. It melts my moyo when Belle initiates the dance with the Beast, pulling him from the chajio, chakula cha jioni meza, jedwali and into the ballroom, then "teaching" him to dance. Admittedly, I don't prefer the close-ups of the dance scenes, particularly with a waltz, as I upendo to see the twirl of the dress in the spins. My inayopendelewa part is when the camera pans down from the ceiling and wewe see the Beast spin Belle out just before he glides her around the room and then she lays her head into his chest to his surprise. So romantic and heartwarming! I especially upendo the ending with all of the stars as backdrop behind the enormous and gorgeous ballroom. Beautiful scene.
5. Belle & Adam: First of all, I completely admit that this sequence is an exact copy Phillip & Aurora in Royal Court since the animators didn't have time to construct a new one for Belle & Adam in Ballroom. That being said, I still like it in it's own way because I upendo seeing Belle dance with her human prince instead of the Beast. I upendo the way Adam picks Belle up and as he twirls her around, they magically change into the ballroom outfits and proceed to dance. I also upendo the subtle change that this time, he leads her into the dance now that she has already taught him. Also, this scene makes me cry! It's so beautiful and I upendo watching the two twirl away into the happy ending they both were searching for. I also upendo the way Belle holds her dress in this, as Aurora holds hers as well. I upendo watching the camera zoom out as they twirl around the ballroom, very beautiful. Also, I think the ballroom is slightly zaidi stunning than Aurora's Royal Court. (Beautiful windows to see the sky and colors outside!)
4. Aurora & Phillip In Royal Court: I upendo the score to this scene, "Awakening"! (Top 5 DP scores!) I upendo how in upendo Aurora's eyes look while she is dancing with Phillip, never looking away. Although Phillip never spins Aurora on her own, they make gliding across the floor look so gorgeous and romantic! I also upendo how Flora and Merryweather continue their magical fight throughout the dance so we see Aurora's dress not only change from blue to pink magically, but various shades within the blue and pink range. It's also so enchanting the way the ballroom turns into the clouds and I absolutely adore the storybook "Happily Ever After" ending. It's also always nice to see the waltz end with a "true upendo kiss".
3. Ariel & Eric: I absolutely adore the score "Tour of the Kingdom" that plays during this dance! (Top 10 DP Scores!) I upendo the way it captures the feel and excitement of Ariel without losing the elegance and beauty of their time and especially, dance together. The way the muziki picks up just as they start dancing is so moving... I upendo the way Eric spins Ariel, dips her and even lifts her! He gave her the full dancing experience. It is so romantic and it's the scene where they really start falling in upendo and it's so beautiful to watch. Short but astounding. Ariel's face when Eric lifts her is pretty much exactly how I feel the entire scene.
2. cinderella & Prince Charming: "So This Is Love.. so this is what makes life divine.. I'm all aglow and now I know the key to all heaven is mine." As a little girl and a married woman now, this scene always makes me gush! It's so stunning and romantic. Possibly my inayopendelewa scene and it's the perfect length as well. I absolutely adore the foreshadowing at the beginning of the dance when they are dancing in the ballroom in front of everyone and just as Lady Tremaine starts to recognizing her, they leave and she is shut off from Cinderella. It is so romantic how the prince takes her to the courtyard to dance beneath the stars! Such absolutely gorgeous and stunning scenery!
1. Aurora & Phillip in Forest: First of all, Aurora embodies femininity, romance, and grace to me in all of the best ways. She reminds me of a ballerina and I upendo ballet and dance. That being said, I think it's only fitting that her waltz is at the juu of my countdown. This scene is absolutely mesmerizing to me! I upendo dancing, I upendo the forest, I upendo classical muziki and I upendo Tchaikovsky! The part where the lake(?) meets the forest and reflects their dance beneath them is so breathtaking and iconic! I also upendo the slow twirls for a mesmerizing effect, it is so scenic to see the dance mirrored in the forest and in the water. Definitely my all-time favorite.
10. charlotte & "Naveen": I thought this dance was really boring. I'm sorry to Charlotte-lovers but I really don't appreciate her spoiled brat, ungrateful, gold-digging, aggressive personality.
