Barbie princess and the pauper cosplay movie#
It also contained two girls who discovered they had the same face and even recycled one of the songs, "To Be a Princess." Still, switching places with a popstar is very different from switching places with a pauper, so the movie was able to stand on its own, despite being somewhat less enjoyable. In 2012, The Princess and the Popstar borrowed heavily from its 2004 predecessor, The Princess and the Pauper. When the studio releasing one movie a year to three, they did begin to recycle ideas a bit, but not the point where they became nearly identical like the Disney remakes. If you've never seen a Barbie movie in your life, this is the one to see. I also loved the costumes in this movie, especially Erika's dress. Rainmaker Studios got a little lazy with the CGI on some of the ones that came after it too. It was only the fourth Barbie movie, but it had much better animation than the three that preceded it. The story was loosely based on "The Prince and the Pauper," but with enough differences to stand on its own. Erika, the "pauper," was street smart, with some minor anxiety issues and a hidden talent for singing. They gave her unique personality traits for a princess, like her obsession with science, her inability to measure sleeves evenly, and close relationship with her cat, Serafina. Princess Anneliese did not feel generic in the slightest. It also had incredibly strong characters. I can't tell you how many times I've found myself singing "Free" or "I Am a Girl Like You" when it came out. One reason I enjoyed it so much is that it's one of the few musicals Barbie has done. It was only the fourth movie in the series. Though I loved seeing Barbie as a mermaid princess in Barbie in a Mermaid Tale and The Pearl Princess and as a fairy in Fairytopia and Mariposa, The Princess and the Pauper from 2004 remains my favorite of the collection so far. This sends a very positive message to girls that they can do anything they put their mind to. Barbie has continued to be the to save the day right up to the most recent movie, Barbie Video Game Hero, in which she defeated a virus within the virtual universe inside the video game she designed and programmed. From the very first movie, Barbie in the Nutcracker in 2001, Barbie was the one to break the curse on Prince Eric returning him to his human form, and she also turned out to be the legendary Sugar Plum Princess he was seeking. Like in modern Disney films, princes play a very small role in Barbie's world if they exist in it all. Like a magical girl, she is always the "chosen one" for whatever special power may exist in the story, whether it's the power to defeat a villain, break a spell, or save her three sisters. With her endless skill set, no one would find her in the role of a damsel in distress very believable, which is why she takes on such an active role in all of her movies. Starting in 1959, Barbie has had an impressive resume with over 150 careers. Even the movies that were inspired by pre-existing stories took great liberties with the details and were transformed into something new and unique.īarbie has only played an actual superhero in 2015, but she has always had one particular superpower. The majority are new and creative stories, such as a fairy who can't fly, ballet slippers that turn dance into reality, and a princess who becomes a superhero.
Instead, Rainmaker focused on less common stories that have not been touched by Disney yet, like "The Nutcracker" and "The Twelve Dancing Princesses." I have to give them credit for originality. Everyone knows there's no beating that property.
The ongoing collection began as way for Mattel to increase Barbie's popularity again, but it was not exactly made to compete with the Disney Princesses. Of the 37 current Barbie movies, Barbie has been a princess in roughly 13 of them. It really is impressive how much original princess content Rainmaker Studio has come out with over the past decade and a half. I've mentioned a couple of Barbie's movies in my "Swan Lake" and "Rapunzel" posts.
