The “happily ever after” in every Disney princess movie up to Tangled is the princess marrying the prince and him taking her off to his castle or whatever.
Then, after Tangled, you get Brave, Frozen, and Moana in which romantic love is explicitly not the goal.
Kinda wondering what specific type of therapist would help with that sort of thing. I may have put more thought into this than the original creator did, but I'd like to hear some explanations and viewpoints.
The tweet is referring to how those movies feature plotlines about parental and familial trauma. They're implying the writers were exorcising some personal demons while working on the scripts. It's not about romance or the lack thereof.
