FAN ART: How Disney's 'The Little Mermaid' should have ended.....

[brendala]

I love this film as much as any other girl who was raised on a steady diet of Disney princess movies. However, upon watching it as a grown up, it becomes clear that Ariel is a totally stupid, selfish, awful person (er, fish or whatever species she technically is). And I have my doubts that her relationship with Eric would survive the resolution of her "Daddy Issues".

Sorry for ruining your childhood, everybody!

When I was a kid, I rented a live-action adaptation of the little mermaid from the video store. And I was totally BLINDSIDED when it ended with the mermaid's death!

I was raised with the actual original tale, so I actually expected it in the disney version.
