And the प्रशंसक of the महीना of August is... PrueFever! Yaaaaaay! Congratulations, आप deserved it. Now, the questions.
Congratulations on being the प्रशंसक of the महीना of August 2014! How do आप feel about it?
Great, really great! But also a little bit weird. I’ve been on फैन्पॉप since 2011, so I’m definitely one of the ”old” users here on Fanpop. But I think the reason I haven’t been प्रशंसक of the महीना is because I haven’t been that active on the DP Spot in some time, so a lot of Fanpoppers didn’t know about me. But then I started to अपलोड some Screencaps and that got me some new फ्रेंड्स and then it earned me some nominations for FotM and I won the Countdown for August. So yeah, it feels great.
How long have आप been an active member of the DP club?
Oh, jolly gosh... That’s a tough question... I’m sorry, but I have a terrible memory when it comes to remembering certain things and this is one of those things. (Laughs) But I’d say I’ve been an active member on the DP Spot for about 4 years. It was one of the क्लब्स I first joined, alongside The Little Mermaid Spot and the डिज़्नी Villains Spot.
How did आप discover Fanpop?
I discovered फैन्पॉप in January 2011. I remember looking on the Internet for Screencaptures from The Little Mermaid. I found a lot of those on the Mermaid Spot and then I checked the मतदानो and I really liked those. But I couldn’t vote in them since I wasn’t a member of the site yet. So I signed up for a membership and I can honestly say it’s the best decision I made in my life. I’m hooked as much now as I was when I signed in for the first time. There are just so many cool things आप can do on Fanpop. And the best thing is that it’s completely free!
Who is your favourite डिज़्नी Princess, and why? And your least favourite?
My प्रिय डिज़्नी Princess is Princess Ariel from ”The Little Mermaid”. She’s a rulebreaker, troublemaker, Prince-marrier and just naive enough to be cute. I just प्यार her adventurious side and her bubbly personality. She chased her dreams to the very end. It meant putting her own life in danger, but she wouldn't stop until she was with the one she loved. But I think my प्यार for Ariel has a lot to with the fact that Mermaid was the very first डिज़्नी Movie I saw. Nostalgia definitely plays a huge part in my प्यार for Ariel.
Least प्रिय डिज़्नी Princess is Rapunzel. I really can’t stand her. Sure, she’s beautiful animated and she’s... She’s... Erh, just not my cup of tea, let’s put it that way. She’s just way too modern for my taste. I just don’t understand why all the animated फिल्में these days have to act all street-wise? Everything has to be श्रेक and so funny. I mean, Rapunzel uses a frying pan as a weapon. ”Haha, that’s so funny!” some might say, but not me. I remember seeing टैंगल्ड in the cinema with my friends. One of my फ्रेंड्स were laughing so hard and he LOVED Maximus! And again, I just don’t get it... A horse अभिनय like a dog! Gets on my nerves every time I watch the movie.
I like Pascal, he was cute but Maximus is just plain annoying. I think डिज़्नी took it too far with that.
Who is your प्रिय डिज़्नी Prince? And your least favourite?
Hmm, good questions. प्रिय डिज़्नी Prince... Has to be either The Prince, Prince Charming या The Beast/Prince Adam. I really like how romantic The Prince and Charming are. Prince Phillip included. And I प्यार the transformation in The Beast, from an angry and grumpy guy to a romantic, sensetive guy.
Least प्रिय Prince is Flynn Rider, again from my least प्रिय DP Movie Tangled. Thinks highly of himself, way too modern, the smoulder... Not a fan!
Which princess have आप started liking और than before, and why?
Cinderella. When I was a kid, it was all about Ariel, चमेली and Pocahontas. Then when I started to collect डिज़्नी फिल्में on DVD and सिंडरेला arrived in October 2005, something changed. I saw the movie and fell in प्यार with it completely. The characters, the story, the music. It was like I saw it for the first time. I had probably seen the movie when I grew up but it didn’t catch me like it did back in 2005. The same thing had happend with Bambi and Lady and the Tramp. When they got released on DVD, I saw them in a whole new light. Part of growing up, I guess. So yeah, सिंडरेला has grown on me... A lot!
What is your favourite DP song?
Has to be either A Whole New World from अलादीन या रंग of the Wind from Pocahontas. I just प्यार both songs so much. They’re just pure डिज़्नी Magic. I get shivers every time I hear them.
What is your प्रिय डिज़्नी Princess movie? And your favourite scene?
प्रिय डिज़्नी Princess Movie is The Little Mermaid. It was the first cartoon I remember seeing when I was a little boy. I remember being completely mesmerized द्वारा it! It just blew me away! I was so fascinated द्वारा the songs, the characters, the story, all of it! And my प्यार for the film is still as strong as ever! I will always प्यार The Little Mermaid and Disney. It has always meant a lot to me and my family. My dad always used to take me and my sisters to the local store and buy the latest डिज़्नी Film on VHS and then we went home, he made us रात का खाना and in the evening we all sat down and watched the डिज़्नी Movie. I loved it. Also, every week when we got our allowance, I used to run down to the local Book Store and buy these little डिज़्नी Characters Figurines. I was obsessed! (Laughs). Also I've been to Disneyland Resort Paris twice. First was in September 2003 and the सेकंड time was June 2010. And this year, I went to Walt डिज़्नी World in Florida with my little sister Joan. It's was great!
प्रिय Scene from Mermaid is Crash the Wedding. आप know, when Scuttle and his army of animal फ्रेंड्स attack Ursula, disguised as Vanessa, from marrying Eric. Vanessa is so beautiful and I just प्यार the way the जानवर attack her, I bet the animators had a lot of fun with this scene. A beautiful woman getting attacked like this. But also, it's a very important scene in the movie as Ariel and Eric doesn't get to किस in time and Ursula wins.
What is your प्रिय non-Princess डिज़्नी movie?
Goodness gracious, that is a tough one! I’m a डिज़्नी Dude, so I really प्यार most of them. But Pinocchio, Bambi and Lady and the Tramp comes to mind first. And if I have to pick just one movie, it would be Pinocchio. That movie has it all. Great animation, great songs and a beautiful score. Voices are Top-Notch as well.
Which princess do आप think is the most unique?
Oh, Princess Merida from “Brave”. I like the fact that she doesn’t end up with a Prince. And the fact that she’s the first Disney•Pixar Princess. That’s what makes her unique in my eyes.
Which princess do आप relate to the most, and why?
Belle. She’s the odd one in her hometown. I was the odd kid in my school. Socially awkward. I was never one of ’the cool kids’. I had a few फ्रेंड्स and that was it. I never went to birthday parties या parties in general. So I’d have to say I relate to Belle the most. But also a lot of Ariel as I like to collect all kinds of डिज़्नी Junk. Posters, figurines, books, movies, माउस pads, mugs, plates, computer mouse, magazines, cards... A lot of डिज़्नी Stuff. So a little like Ariel as well.
Is there any डिज़्नी heroine आप wish was considered an official DP?
Megara from Hercules. Because I प्यार her. She’s a great डिज़्नी Character. And really beautiful. Also I think she has a great personality and if she was added into the DP Lineup, Hercules would recieve और love.
What fairy tale would आप like to see डिज़्नी turn into a movie next?
Hmm, a new version of the Rapunzel fairy tale that’s not so Shrek-like? (Laughs) या maybe ऐनस्टेशिया so we finally can end the ”Anastasia-is-not-a-Disney-Movie” once and for all.
You’re the first of the DP Users to earn a Purple Legendary प्रशंसक Medal for all your work in the Walt डिज़्नी Characters Spot. Congratulations. How did that make आप feel when आप saw it?
Thank you. I was Over the Moon at first! And it's funny, because a week या so before I got the Purple Medal, I had my 30th Birthday and when I logged on that day, I saw I had earned a नारंगी, ऑरेंज Super प्रशंसक Medal in the WDC Spot. And that was so great. I felt like it was a Birthday Present from Fanpop. And then, suddenly I got this Purple Medal. And I'm like "Whoa, time out! What just happend here..?" I just couldn't believe it! But after I read a reply on the फैन्पॉप Page where the user KateKicksAss says the following:
"They're just virtual प्रोफ़ाइल decoration! I mean, sure it might be fun to have some, but overall, they really don't affect your फैन्पॉप experience."
And I realized, she was right! They are just Virtual प्रोफ़ाइल Decoration, but they are also great to have. For me, they दिखाना my affection for certain things, things I really like and care about, something that means a lot to me, personally!
Finally, why did आप make the Walt डिज़्नी Characters Spot? What's the story behind it?
Well, it's a funny story behind this. So 3 years ago, I पोस्टेड a मतदान in the DP Spot, that read:
”In the Screencaptures Section under Gallery, is it okay to post कैप्स of other डिज़्नी Characters than the डिज़्नी Princesses?”
68% voted on “This is the डिज़्नी Princess प्रशंसक Club! Only the Princesses!” and टिप्पणियाँ like ”No. There are a million डिज़्नी या डिज़्नी related क्लब्स on Fanpop. Post it there!” and ”Forget it!” made me realize that the DP Spot was only for the DP Screencaps and not the place to post कैप्स from The Lion King या Bambi. So I though to myself: ”Okay, then I just have to make a डिज़्नी Club for my own where I can post the Screencaptures I desire” So I came up the name Walt डिज़्नी Characters and started to post DVD Screencapture from Mermaid, Bambi, Pinocchio and the other डिज़्नी Classics. Since then I have been deleting all those old DVD Screencaps and replaced them with HD Blu-Ray Screencaps instead. So there आप have it.
Congratulations on being the प्रशंसक of the महीना of August 2014! How do आप feel about it?

I was thinking about the fact that Middle-Eastern and Indian royalty back in the days would have what is called a harem. Jasmine's dad as far as we know doesn't have one. If Jasmine's dad had one it would be very likely she would have had shared living quarters with her steps and half-sisters and maybe aunts.
I think if चमेली had grown up in a harem she would been complete different and be 1)competitive and 2)she would also be Vigilant due to the number of X times she had been poison-if on purpose या द्वारा accident द्वारा the steps.
of course there's the fact Jafar could somehow 'use' her steps to get closer to her. So maybe that's one of the reasons why they didn't have a harem.
