As I was creating my icon for Team Merida, I realised exactly why I loved this girl. As a result, I decided to write an artikel with 5 reasons why everybody should cinta Merida/Brave
1. brave was the first pixar film that had a female protagonist.
pixar is a hugely successful company, but it took about 8 years since they first started making films for them to make a movie where the main character was a girl. Before brave was made, I was slightly annoyed at pixar - most of it's films didn't even pass the Bechdel test. I cinta brave because it finally featured an awesome female character.
2. Merida is a great role-model, just the same as some of the other girls
Perhaps Merida isn't your first thought when it comes to good role-model. A lot of people call her "spoilt" and "a brat". However, stop to think about it. There is something in Merida's life that she doesn't like, so she makes a HUGE effort to change it. She doesn't just accept a bad fate. There are millions of teenagers in abusive atau bad situations and Merida can act as a perfect role-model to tampil teens they can change their life!
3. Merida is the first princess with brothers
I have ALWAYS wished for a princess film that showed an accurate portrayal about the brother/sister relationship. And while brave didn't have much of a focus on the four siblings, at least it was a start. I WANT lebih PRINCESSES WITH BROTHERS
4. Merida is the first princess who didn't end up with a cinta interest.
I guess to some people this would not seem very significant, but I feel it is very important that girls see that a princess doesn't have to eventually end up with a prince/love interest. anda don't need a man to live happily ever after. brave teaches girls that life is about finding yourself, not romantic love.
5. Merida gets a lot of unfair criticism
As mentioned earlier, Merida is often (unfairly) called a spoiled brat because of the way she reacts when she finds out she is being forced into marriage. But, realistically,how would anda feel if anda were sixteen and looking meneruskan, ke depan to studying at universitas so anda can go and live your dreams. Suddenly, your parents tell anda none of that is going to happen and anda have to give up your dreams and get married. Any arguement anda make is completely ignored. Oh, and oleh the way, anda have no choice in who anda marry and your husband is a complete stranger who anda have never spoken too. I'm guessing any sane person would react the same way Merida did.
That concludes this article. I would really be interested to hear your thoughts.
