Ursula's greed and use of dark magic led to her banishment. She was widely known as the "Sea Witch", an alias she accepted in stride. She boasts that her previous life was lavish and included such spoils as "fantastical feasts." Power-hungry and devilish, even in the past, Ursula garnered a disreputable reputation amongst underwater dwellers.
She states through a monologue that she once lived in the royal palace of King Triton, the king of the underwater city of Atlantica. Ursula belongs to a race of creatures known as Cecaelia, which are half-woman, half-octopus. 7.7 The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure.5.4 Disney Princess: My Fairytale Adventure.4.4 Poor Unfortunate Soul: A Tale of the Sea Witch.4.2 The Beast Within: A Tale of Beauty's Prince.2.5 The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse.2.3 The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea.She has since featured prominently as a primary member of the Disney Villains line-up. Ursula's fervent confidence and theatricality have been met with critical praise, and have influenced villains that followed. Ursula is loosely based on the nameless sea witch from the original Hans Christian Andersen tale, while her characterization takes inspiration from the drag queen Divine. Scorned, she has since vowed to exact vengeance by harnessing the power of the king's trident and installing herself as ruler of all the ocean. In the past, Ursula was a resident of King Triton's palace, before being banished and exiled by order of the king. Ursula's contracts, however, are covertly designed to advance her own ambitions and cause general misery.

Here's what she found.“ I admit that in the past I've been a nasty.
Tumblr user Alex, or Every Flavored Bean, had been noticing the recurring pattern of similar female faces for a while - so she decided to look a little deeper and trace the faces of both male and female characters from a variety of Pixar movies over the last 10 years. While I'm not an animator, I'm not sure what the gender of a character has to do with how easy or difficult it is to depict different emotions and facial features. "Historically speaking, animating female characters are really, really difficult, because they have to go through these range of emotions, but you have to keep them pretty," he said. quite a bit more, actually.īefore Frozen's release, Lino DiSalvo, head of the film's animation, made remarks about how difficult it is to animate women because they have to be kept pretty while expressing a range of emotion. No big deal, except it seems that the animators give more attention to detail when it comes to the male characters' facial features. We know that Disney doesn't always reflect the most realistic beauty standards or diversity through its animated female characters, but what about the characters' most basic facial features? After years of watching Pixar's animated films, you've probably noticed similarities among most of the female leads - the round face, small nose, and perfect smile.
