And the 팬 of the 월 of August is... PrueFever! Yaaaaaay! Congratulations, 당신 deserved it. Now, the questions.


Congratulations on being the 팬 of the 월 of August 2014! How do 당신 feel about it?

Great, really great! But also a little bit weird. I’ve been on 팬팝 since 2011, so I’m definitely one of the ”old” users here on Fanpop. But I think the reason I haven’t been 팬 of the 월 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 업로드 some Screencaps and that got me some new 프렌즈 and then it earned me some nominations for FotM and I won the Countdown for August. So yeah, it feels great.

How long have 당신 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 Clubs I first joined, alongside The Little Mermaid Spot and the 디즈니 Villains Spot.

How did 당신 discover Fanpop?

I discovered 팬팝 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 투표 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 당신 can do on Fanpop. And the best thing is that it’s completely free!

Who is your favourite 디즈니 Princess, and why? And your least favourite?

My 가장 좋아하는 디즈니 Princess is Princess Ariel from ”The Little Mermaid”. She’s a rulebreaker, troublemaker, Prince-marrier and just naive enough to be cute. I just 사랑 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 사랑 for Ariel has a lot to with the fact that Mermaid was the very first 디즈니 Movie I saw. Nostalgia definitely plays a huge part in my 사랑 for Ariel.



Least 가장 좋아하는 디즈니 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 영화 these days have to act all street-wise? Everything has to be 슈렉 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 라푼젤 in the cinema with my friends. One of my 프렌즈 were laughing so hard and he LOVED Maximus! And again, I just don’t get it... A horse 연기 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 디즈니 took it too far with that.



Who is your 가장 좋아하는 디즈니 Prince? And your least favourite?

Hmm, good questions. 가장 좋아하는 디즈니 Prince... Has to be either The Prince, Prince Charming 또는 The Beast/Prince Adam. I really like how romantic The Prince and Charming are. Prince Phillip included. And I 사랑 the transformation in The Beast, from an angry and grumpy guy to a romantic, sensetive guy.



Least 가장 좋아하는 Prince is Flynn Rider, again from my least 가장 좋아하는 DP Movie Tangled. Thinks highly of himself, way too modern, the smoulder... Not a fan!



Which princess have 당신 started liking 더 많이 than before, and why?

Cinderella. When I was a kid, it was all about Ariel, 재스민 속, 재 스민 and Pocahontas. Then when I started to collect 디즈니 영화 on DVD and 신데렐라 arrived in October 2005, something changed. I saw the movie and fell in 사랑 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, 신데렐라 has grown on me... A lot!

What is your favourite DP song?

Has to be either A Whole New World from 알라딘 또는 색깔 of the Wind from Pocahontas. I just 사랑 both songs so much. They’re just pure 디즈니 Magic. I get shivers every time I hear them.

What is your 가장 좋아하는 디즈니 Princess movie? And your favourite scene?

가장 좋아하는 디즈니 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 의해 it! It just blew me away! I was so fascinated 의해 the songs, the characters, the story, all of it! And my 사랑 for the film is still as strong as ever! I will always 사랑 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 디즈니 Film on VHS and then we went home, he made us 공식 만찬, 저녁 식사 and in the evening we all sat down and watched the 디즈니 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 디즈니 Characters Figurines. I was obsessed! (Laughs). Also I've been to Disneyland Resort Paris twice. First was in September 2003 and the 초 time was June 2010. And this year, I went to Walt 디즈니 World in Florida with my little sister Joan. It's was great!

가장 좋아하는 Scene from Mermaid is Crash the Wedding. 당신 know, when Scuttle and his army of animal 프렌즈 attack Ursula, disguised as Vanessa, from marrying Eric. Vanessa is so beautiful and I just 사랑 the way the 동물 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 키스 in time and Ursula wins.



What is your 가장 좋아하는 non-Princess 디즈니 movie?

Goodness gracious, that is a tough one! I’m a 디즈니 Dude, so I really 사랑 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 당신 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 당신 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 프렌즈 and that was it. I never went to birthday parties 또는 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 디즈니 Junk. Posters, figurines, books, movies, 쥐, 마우스 pads, mugs, plates, computer mouse, magazines, cards... A lot of 디즈니 Stuff. So a little like Ariel as well.

Is there any 디즈니 heroine 당신 wish was considered an official DP?

Megara from Hercules. Because I 사랑 her. She’s a great 디즈니 Character. And really beautiful. Also I think she has a great personality and if she was added into the DP Lineup, Hercules would recieve 더 많이 love.



What fairy tale would 당신 like to see 디즈니 turn into a movie next?

Hmm, a new version of the Rapunzel fairy tale that’s not so Shrek-like? (Laughs) 또는 maybe 아나스타샤 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 팬 Medal for all your work in the Walt 디즈니 Characters Spot. Congratulations. How did that make 당신 feel when 당신 saw it?

Thank you. I was Over the Moon at first! And it's funny, because a week 또는 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 주황색, 오렌지 Super 팬 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 팬팝 Page where the user KateKicksAss says the following:

"They're just virtual 프로필 decoration! I mean, sure it might be fun to have some, but overall, they really don't affect your 팬팝 experience."

And I realized, she was right! They are just Virtual 프로필 Decoration, but they are also great to have. For me, they show my affection for certain things, things I really like and care about, something that means a lot to me, personally!

Finally, why did 당신 make the Walt 디즈니 Characters Spot? What's the story behind it?

Well, it's a funny story behind this. So 3 years ago, I 게시됨 a 투표 in the DP Spot, that read:

”In the Screencaptures Section under Gallery, is it okay to post caps of other 디즈니 Characters than the 디즈니 Princesses?”

68% voted on “This is the 디즈니 Princess 팬 Club! Only the Princesses!” and 코멘트 like ”No. There are a million 디즈니 또는 디즈니 related clubs 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 caps from The Lion King 또는 Bambi. So I though to myself: ”Okay, then I just have to make a 디즈니 Club for my own where I can post the Screencaptures I desire” So I came up the name Walt 디즈니 Characters and started to post DVD Screencapture from Mermaid, Bambi, Pinocchio and the other 디즈니 Classics. Since then I have been deleting all those old DVD Screencaps and replaced them with HD Blu-Ray Screencaps instead. So there 당신 have it.
