FINALLY -- Disney is fixing the one flaw in this movie


As you've undoubtedly seen in the trailer for the forthcoming Rapunzel TV series, RAPUNZEL GETS HER LONG, BLONDE HAIR BACK.

The one wrong move that the original film (which otherwise is a masterpiece) made was cutting her beautiful hair. Her long, blonde tresses were the very best thing about Rapunzel. To diminish such a gorgeous, feminine character by giving her a short, androgynous cut was a tragedy. Aesthetic vandalism.

All girls look better with long hair, and blonde girls are invariably more attractive than brunettes -- a fact that Rapunzel's appearance, before-and-after her shearing, proves conclusively.

But now, I can finally watch this movie again without turning it off before the ending, because I can rest comfortable in the knowledge that her unsightly boycut is only a temporary blemish, and her true, golden, feminine tresses have been permanently restored.

You know that's not the reason they brought back the long, blonde hair.

I liked her better with the short, natural, brown hair.

Note that this series takes place between Tangled and Tangled Ever After, in which Rapunzel still has the short brown hair, so she will be losing the blond hair again by the end of the series (or, as the trailer implies, getting rid of it)

I prefer brunettes, and redheads. Maybe it's because I have blond hair myself, they do say us "guys prefer different hair color than our own." I think she looks better with the short brown hair.

her hair being cut was part of the plot, it wasn't a mistake. even in the original fairytale rapunzel gets her hair cut. There's no reason she couldn't grwo it again afterwards, but it should stay brown, which is her natural colour.
