About

Various Examples


grangerdanger7 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 1937 SnowWhite the fen /2 Watched 30 Oct 2020 Kinda hard for this to be a good movie when the whole basis of it is that Snow White is hotter than the queen, which she just isn't. She looks like the girl that wore Jesus sandals at the front of class and told you to shush when you were just tryna have a good time. And why are they acting like being white af is hot, like she's hella pale and her name is snow WHITE. Idk kinda racist and there's nothing hot about lookin like a blood sucking vampire. Also she basically turned the dwarves into her slaves and as someone very close to being m----- height I resent that.
