Blogpost #8 Villains get the Girls

Whenever I remember the movie Megamind a statement always comes to my mind and that is the bad guys always dont get the girl. I probably guess he was wrong. Jack Sparrow is considered a Pirate and Pirates are evil theifs but, Jack Sparrow always have girls chasing him. That why today I will research why do the villains get the girls.

What makes them Attractive

I have read a blog of Kira Ramirez entitled "Why bad guys will always get the girls"

There are characteristic of Villains ladies love, Those are They have a personality,They have high aspirations and pursue them,They don’t let impossible odds stop them from obtaining their goals, The villains let their feelings for their women be known,They make their women feel special, And they want to share their good fortune with the women in their lives. Those are the reasons why they are attractive.

Kira Ramirez stated that "Villains always treat their heroines as if they are one of a kind–which they are."

That statement is true because every girl wants to be treated as a queen and doesn't wanted to be treated as a slave. Whenever girls have that kind of man they would be happy and glad because of how lucky of them to have a man like that characteristics.

They Find it Sexy?

I read an article of MaryAnn Johanson entitled "question of the day: Why do we find villains sexy?"

Women gets a thrill of a bad guy because of their attitude they have a admiration of villains even though the villains are not the quite role models we should follow in our paths. It is the Thrill the women are chasing that makes the scene sexy for the villains and makes the villain sexy. The way the villain does something bad triggers the danger women love to have in a relationship.

Johanson stated that "Does it bother you that you find some very bad people — even if they are only fictional — attractive "

Even though they are fictional and only be seen in movies. Women still find them attractive because of the impact they've done in the movie. Villains are attractive because of what they do such as they're evil plans and what they do for destruction.

Blogpost #7 Disney Villains Better Role Models

Disney made successful movies where Princesses were their main characters. I have watched movies of Disney and most of them are Princesses getting saved by their prince charming. Does it make them a role model to the young children? Today I will research why Disney Villains are better role models than the princesses.

Goal Oriented Villains vs No Goal Princesses

I have read an Article of Katie J.M. Baker entitled "Screw Princesses -- Disney Villains Are the Real Role Models"

The Princesses in Disney movies are all the same. Beautiful Looking and Daddy issues and no long-term goals aside from achieving some freedom by marrying up. Those are not good things that children would follow in the future thinking their Role models are Princesses that does not have specific goals in life. On the other hand are the villains who have goals in life and they do their best in achieving it. 

Baker stated that "Villains are goal-oriented, while princesses are content with a puffball dress and Ken doll beau."

In that statement shows that the villains are more eager in life rather than princesses because they are just waiting for their prince while the villains does a plan and makes it because of their eagerness.


Villains overpowering Princesses

An article of Lauren Martin entitled "Why Disney Villains Are Way Better Role Models Than Disney Princesses For Women" Explains it

The villains in the movies represent the modern women. They are the single, hardworking, somewhat moody and bitter ladies only trying to find their destination in the planet. They have aspirations, goals and dreams, whether or not they are somewhat wicked. The villains have the characteristics of the strive for greatness and glory. these are typically the modern ladies we have. 

Lauren Martin stated that "The Disney Princesses were all only a bunch of entitled socialites obsessed with marrying the initially wealthy man who popped the query." 

That statement is true because we see it in films and that makes them obsessive in marrying. If the children would make them a role model. Does it mean if they find their match at an early age they would follow their models? Their not quite the Models we should follow today. We should become more typical in life to succeed.
