Welcome to Gaia! ::

Its sort of funny how Disney and a whole bunch of other companies have taken the dark, sad, and troubled fairy tales of so many years ago and turned them into happy go lucky movies for kids. 3nodding

I know, right?
So much for gruesome murders and tragic endings. Suddenly everything's all 'Happily-Ever-After!' even when it causes the story to lose it's moral value confused

yea. Maybe that's why kids are so disobedient in day and age. They weren't taught the stories where mistakes actualy had consquences

I'd like to see someone make a happy-go-lucky version of the Little Match Girl. I'd be interested to see what Disney might do to it.
I wouldn't actually mind seeing the original Brothers Grimm Cinderella... that's the one where there is self mutilation and karma on the family.
Some of the names have changed from the original fairy tales as well. Red riding hood didnt always have a hood, and sometimes had a red cap instead. It is also really interesting to see different versions of the same story from different cultures.

There's a manga (a oneshot collection) that uses a couple of the Grimm's originals. If you're interested I can find the title for you ^^

1. Covered in Cinders which is based on the Brothers Grimm version

2. 12 O'Clock Bell Rings which is a gothic twist of the story

Disney had done a short of The Little Match Girl, and surprisingly, didn't sugar coat it all that much. The most significant difference was that the abusive father wasn't mentioned. The short was made for Fantasia 2000 but was cut. I think you get it on the DVD.

If it's Grimms Manga you're looking for they have it uploaded on Manga Fox. Or just google Grimms Manga.
Manga Fox has Covered in Cinders and 12 O'Clock Bell Rings uploaded too.
