ORWEN: As for YOU, Dr. Hans Reinhardt, us Disney loving Princess types can NEVER have too many Disney heroines to meet and greet with. Of course you're just a man and probably don't get it. That's okay. I don't get why most of the men in your world feel they can never get enough football on those wide screen TV thingies. A witch would think you'd all had more than enough of THOSE, too! ORDDU: It's the same with most of the men in Morva. Except with them it's a continuous succession of jousting tournaments and other types of combat that they can't get enough of. In any event, girls just want to have fun while it often seems men just want to have none.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros It's interesting that the concept art shows that the hair will be coming from the tower, but she will be in the little building below, with the 'loose' end of her hair. Overall, I think she fits surprisingly well there. The tower looks like it will need some work to fit the new look, so I'm surprised they're not already working on it. It will probably take a bit to get that work done. It also seems strange how quickly that space turns things over. For the longest time, it was closed, or open seasonally (like 2 weeks a year) as a Christmas shop. Then it became the crystal shop, when it got dispaced from the castle for the walkthrough ADA room. Then it was closed for a little bit longer, and it's been the candy shop for a couple months. Just enough time for it to get a new candy cane sign out front, and then get evicted for a princess meet and greet that will likely only last through the holidays before she gets moved over to PFF, like Tiana last year. I'm all for a nice area to meet a princess, but that little shop just can't catch a break. Operationally, it will also be interesting to see how they run it, since I don't think there's any access to it, other than the front door. It will be interesting if Rapunzel will have to walk halway across Fantasyland (presumably from the backstage area near the Village Haus restrooms) to get to her meet and greet. That might make it difficult to have the normal rotation of cast members.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros It's the new title for the movie formerly known as "Rapunzel". They decided they needed something more hip and edgy after PATF didn't do as well as they hoped, so they went with a new name and marketing. Hopefully the movie itself is still good, and it's just the advertising (and name) that changed.
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt More specifically changed the title out of concern that they were marginalizing their male audience. In other words, the marketing of this film is trying to appeal to the boys who might be turned off by yet another Disney fairytale princess story.

It's just a lot of misleading advertising that only make Disney management feel better. They needed to pacify themselves so much, you see...

ORGOCH: Well, mabye--'cept ya all gotta remember the whole cauldron gang's been banned from ever doin' meet 'n greets in the theme parks ever agin! ORWEN: Yeah, and who's to blame for THAT old biddy?! ORGOCH: Don't go lookin' ta lay the blame fer that at MY back door, sister! It ain't MY fault some old goomer mistook us fer cleanin' women back in '85 and then ordered us ta clean up the horse puckey on Main Street!! Just 'cause I went an' set him straight fer bein' so dang rude shouldn't a got us banned the way it did!
