In the great debates surrounding the modern era of Disney princess movies, Tangled and Frozen have come toe to toe many times in countless discussions all over the world. Both movies have their major positive points, though.

For example, Tangled was the first movie in which its princess (Rapunzel) had her art style created from CGI that blended computer animation with traditional animation. Some have described this blend as "the feeling of a painting."

Maureen Lee Lenker wrote that "Tangled is a complex tale of a princess on an empowering journey to discover who she really is." They reported:

"Since its release, 'Frozen' has earned $1.2 billion worldwide, becoming the fifth-highest-grossing film of all time and by far the highest-grossing animation. That’s not to mention two Academy Awards, a BAFTA, a Golden Globe, a soundtrack that’s garnered more than a million album sales and seven million Spotify streams, official YouTube video views in the hundreds of millions, and a DVD that became Amazon’s best-selling children’s film of all time based on advance orders alone."

Speaking of whimsy, this “Boredom and Daisies” vibe matches the small moments that prove the world is still full of surprises.
