| | Also, another thing to consider is Lottie, though spoiled, rich, and white, she is NOT a villain, but was actually the one who bought a lot of stuff (admittedly with daddy's money) to help Tiana get enough money for her restaurant. (They even said so in the director's commentary that she was designed that way.). That's another thing that makes the film anti-liberal. If it'd been a liberal film, Lottie and her father would have been villainous jerks, not supporting good guys. | | Also, another thing to consider is Lottie, though spoiled, rich, and white, she is NOT a villain, but was actually the one who bought a lot of stuff (admittedly with daddy's money) to help Tiana get enough money for her restaurant.

| | Also, lest someone bring in that the film's agenda is racist, it should be noted that it appears that the film's villain, Dr. Facilier, is darker skinned (not quite black, but not white either). | | Also, lest someone bring in that the film's agenda is racist, it should be noted that it appears that the film's villain, Dr. Facilier, is darker skinned (not quite black, but not white either). |

| | Also, I might add that originally, Louis the alligator, was going to be a human turned into an alligator by Dr. Facilier, but the plot was dropped on that part. However, that said, Lois the alligator and Ray the firefly (who actually died fighting Facilier), were also portrayed in a good light and not as incompetent. That is another strike against it being a feminist movie.

| | + | Also, I might add that Tiana and Naveen do seem more like a reasonable couple. Naveen is lazy and rich. Tiana, though poor and hardworking, perhaps is quite possibly going over the line on working TOO hard, as even her own mother points out to her. And she never bothers to spend time with her friends as she's always busy working. In the end, Naveen becomes less lazy and Tiana learns to have fun once in a while. If it was a more feminist film by the way, it would have Tiana remain the same while Naveen became less lazy. However, Naveen changed Tiana too for the better.
