Agreed. Kinda sad how the word "need" gets tossed around nowadays.

Although technically it's always been a "for the sake of it" thing. For the sake of money.

She was a frog for the majority of the film I believe it was.

"How anyone here is able to instantly determine this would be a reactionary thing "just for the sake of it" is beyond me."

It's all about how you present an idea. If the article was "we need a Disney movie based off latin heritage", then I think people would have been like "oh that sounds fun". However, the idea is that we don't need a latin heritage movie per say, just a token latin princess, which is why you have the reactionary responses.

"If the article was 'we need a Disney movie based off latin heritage',"

Some of text within the article does state it like that...

"then I think people would have been like 'oh that sounds fun'."

...and this was not the typical outcome here.

"Some of text within the article does state it like that... "

The title is "We need a Latina Princess" and the description is "Pixelvolt takes a look at the ethnic choices of Disney princesses." I don't care if Pixelvolt made a strong case for this stance or if the article is well rounded, these two things give me the impression that this article is about the fact we need a latina princess because there is no latina princess. I shouldn't have to read the article and realize that they were possibly trolling for hits by using that title and description.

"...and this was not the typical outcome here."

If Filmwatch is anything like N4G (many of the same posters, so I assume it is), then very few people are going to read the article before commenting. I won't lie, I didn't read it myself, since the title and description put me off. Perhaps this is wrong, but they're still presenting the idea that we need a latin princess because we don't have one.

This is the same politically correct nonsense that some people try to create, which gets really annoying. We're starting to get to a point where you don't have characters, but a checklist of things you need. They should do it because they have a good idea or the movie would be interesting, not because that is a notch missing on a checklist.
