I'm super happy with how it came out, hopefully you are too!
This newest Disney crossover is about two outcasts, Bambi and Kovu, who become inseparable despite their natural relationship as prey and predator. That's about all I have to say about this one. ^-^
By the way, here are links to the amazing Kovu & Bambi fanfiction, "Against All Odds", by burningsoul05. She wrote it based on this video. I feel so honoured! :D

![The Real King Stefan - A Tribute
Warning: Maleficent spoilers below!
(Skim to the bottom if youre just looking for song/artist info!)
While I was in bed (actually, on couch would be more accurate, since my room is under renovation) I ended up calling to mind 2014s Maleficent (which I watched one of the last times I had a cold). And, once again, I found myself absolutely irate. Why? Several reasons.
[Disclaimer: These are my thoughts and my arguments. Obviously, you are welcome to your own.]
3) BACK STORY.
Giving the self-proclaimed Mistress of all Evil a sentimental back story is a stretch to begin with, but portraying her as a doe-eyed youth with no conniving inclinations, or wicked tendencies, or any kind of mean streak whatsoever goes beyond stretching it. My disbelief does not suspend that far. Even though the loss of her wings is traumatic, as is Stefans betrayal, I would be more inclined to believe in her complete change of character (meaning, the vengeance she takes out on the entire world and not just Stefan) if she hadnt been quite so innocent and perfect at the beginning. Even seeing her pull a few mean-spirited pranks, or showing a degree of selfishness would have been enough. The writers tried, essentially, to turn her into a Disney princess and I feel that this was a mistake.
2) IGNORING THE FACTS.
This film was marketed as the real story behind the story, yet instead of operating behind the scenes it straight-up changes the original movies plot and characters to suit Maleficents revamped character. It cant be the real story behind the story if its changing the facts. If it hadnt been marketed this way, I wouldnt have gone into the movie with the same expectations.
- Lets start with the most obvious. In the animated film Maleficent is actively searching for Aurora for sixteen years. The film makes a point of pointing out that she has no idea where the princess is, and—judging from her enraged reaction when she finds out her minions were still searching for a baby—if she had found Aurora she would have most definitely killed her. However, even though this inaccuracy discredits Maleficent (2014) right from the get-go, Im willing to let it slide—because when compared to every other inaccuracy and outrageous embellishment, this barely makes a mark.
- Next. Maleficent does not turn into a dragon. Like, WTF, that was the best thing about her! I dont have a problem with her crows human shape-shifting shenanigans (since there are plenty of instances where that could have happened behind the scenes in the original) but self-sacrificing dragon—no. Be gone!
- The fairies, though bumbling and nonsensical in the original, became completely mindless little Navis tittering around aimlessly. Maleficent is given all of the maternal credit. Dont think so.
- Philip does not do ANYTHING. He is entirely stripped of his heroics and humour; the only two things he had going for him good looks notwithstanding. Sorry, Disney but if Prince Philly is anything, its brave.
1) KING STEFAN.
Without a doubt, the number one reason why I cannot and will not (voluntarily) watch Maleficent a second time around. Not only does this film dethrone King Stefan from his humour (SKUMPS!) and paternal nature, it turns him into—arguably—the evilest Disney villain of all time (yes, even eviler than the Mistress of All Evil herself) by making him greedy, power-hungry, manipulative and—wait for it—a rapist. Yes, a rapist. Disney writers have confirmed that Maleficents loss of wings = rape.
Obviously, since I made this tribute in memory of Disneys original King Stefan, I have a problem with this. And not just because Ive loved King Stefan (and Hubert! And the drunk servant!) since childhood.
More than anything else, I have a problem with the fact that in order to make an evil woman good Disney chose to make a good man evil. If you have kept up with Disney over the years, you have probably noticed the female empowerment trend (I would argue that all of the princesses are strong in their own ways, thats another argument for another day). Im all for female empowerment (I am a WOMAN, after all), but I believe in equality, not dominance. Many of the men in this film were brought down (Stefan became the villain, Philip the hero was cast aside, Hubert is entirely absent) to give the female characters prominence. I think its wrong for women to be raised up by putting men down, and vice versus; this is an incredibly flawed kind of feminism that will not benefit anyone in the long run and it makes me incredibly uncomfortable to see it in media, let alone in a Disney movie.
That is essentially why I made this tribute. To make a point, blow off steam—and recover from a cold. Technically speaking, its not my best work and there are glitches I cant get rid of, but Ive wanted to make this for a while, so I made it. :)
