(And there's a truly awesome bit of high self-esteem; Ursula has shape-shifting powers, she could look like a willowy little waif...but she likes the way she looks. Yay!)John Seaveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07530526320973807452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-41760349316091367152010-05-26T15:13:28.093-04:002010-05-26T15:13:28.093-04:00Gosh, but she WAS and IS magnificent.

She's got too much power and smarts and style for that sort of thing...but it sure doesn't hurt for everyone to THINK that. I used to think that perhaps she had a small case of the hots for Prince Philip, but I like Kalinara's explanation better. Although his father is a bit on the dumpy side...can't quite see the two of them together, perhaps he was better looking when he was young.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-53055814698044187462010-05-25T19:13:38.046-04:002010-05-25T19:13:38.046-04:00I've been told by more than one lesbian or bis...I've been told by more than one lesbian or bisexual woman that Maleficent was their first girl-crush.<br /><br />Mothers, lock up your daughters!Chris Lowrancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14261681408965717414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538843.post-65139744787700239742010-05-25T18:48:20.462-04:002010-05-25T18:48:20.462-04:00Fiction needs more people who can turn into dragon...Fiction needs more people who can turn into dragons.

It'd explain the axe and why she didn't kill him.<br /><br />We never DO see his mom, and he's got to get his build from someone who isn't his dad.

Seems she didnt REALLY want to kill anyone, because otherwise she would have just zapped the brat in the crib. But she put on a good show, to save face, and blew that joint.Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16961465560856628709noreply@blogger.com
