Фетишист ^^'

> No Cartoon Fish: Interestingly zigzagged. While there are

В этом есть что-то зловещее.

> Pyrrhic Victory: It is explicitly stated in Ursula's song that

> Ariel, a teenage girl who loves singing and who would be trying

Я бы посмотрела slice of life, снятый по мотивам такого варианта!

> Not necessarily, if the lyrics "she don't say a word and she say

Тот самый момент, когда нужно не гадать, а читать контракт. В том 
числе и мелкий шрифт. Но, по очевидным причинам, это не возможно ^^'

> Rainbow Motif: The seven daughters of Triton each have a different

А вот это было неожиданно!

Надо было не только поступить правильно, но и настучать товарищам 
по головам OO За вредные советы.

> Shoo Out the Clowns: Scuttle, Sebastian, and Flounder kind of get

Кстати о клоунах. Несмотря на то, что Себастьян не дурак (советник 
короля же!), вместе со Скатлом и Флаундером они вполне себе бака 
трио.

От создателей, смотревших «Форсаж» OO Они там больше ничего 
не смотрели перед началом съёмок? OO

> The Smurfette Principle: Ariel as the protagonist and Ursula as

> male-to-female ratio. Ariel's sisters have no importance and 
> Carlotta the maid has only a handful of lines.

Так у служанки, оказывается, было имя! OO

> Theme Naming: The Daughters of Triton are all "A" names: Ariel, 
> Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella, and Alana. All of them 
> are also three syllables, like their mother's name Athena.
> 
> Odd Name Out: Ariel's name starts with A like her sisters', but it 
> does not end with A.
> 
> But sometimes she does....like in the Croatian and Italian dubs.

Мне интересно, кто-то продумывает такие детали специально или всё 
получается само собой?
