Princesses Fanarts

why am i so excited for the new bridgerton season

The important thing to remember is that, when Shrek came out in 2001, its subversive, ironical tone was groundbreaking because it was up against a Disney machine that played everything completely straight (notwithstanding "Emperor's New Groove", which came out a few months earlier). Then Disney itself bought into that tone and hegemonized it, and now, movies that actually take their own fucking characters and premises seriously feel like a breath of fresh air.

@mage8 This is why I don't actually think it's always useful to say that art is good or bad; sometimes a work of art is just out of phase with the cultural ecosystem.

One thing about Shrek versus its commodification is, like most such appropriations, it was done without an understanding of why the ironic tone worked. The people who drive commodification only know how to look for the "trick" and in Shrek they saw this as "characters have modern awareness and make jokes about stupid things in fairy tales," but what they overlooked is that the ironic tone was a veneer to add something fun and interesting to an otherwise sincere movie. All the silly fairy tale jokes were a means to an end for a solid, kind story. But of course you can't package and sell the latter, so they took the superficial irony and made it the product.
