OPINION: Disney's latest rewrite is a flex to show who's really in charge
, Whoopi Goldberg said the revisions to the new Little Mermaid are ok because it’s the composer, Alan Menken, himself making the changes.where he revealed the alterations, Menken sounds resigned to capitulate to the woke mob."There are some lyric changes in"Kiss the Girl" because people have gotten very sensitive about the idea that [Prince Eric] would, in any way, force himself on [Ariel].
The changes make no sense with the plot. The audience knows that Ariel, the mermaid, wants to be kissed by Eric the prince. After spotting him on land, she rearranges her entire life to try to be with him. There’s no mystery about whether she wants him to kiss her. It’s a rewrite of human nature to say that consent only comes with verbal confirmation. Ariel has given up her voice to try to be with Eric. She wants the kiss.
The previous board that oversaw aspects of Disney World approved a series of agreements that gave the corporate giant a wide range of control.
