Felicia Johansson :
Fun fact that Hans Christian Andersen’s the little mermaid is based of his own life and how he couldn’t get a person he loved

‘The Little Mermaid’ could be many mermaids, but Ariel was a specific mermaid.

Girl if the Disney version is based on the Hans Christian Anders story, then it’s danish. Same with snowwhite based on a German story.

The live action The Little Mermaid is the best live action adaptation of an animated film. I will die on that hill.

honestly the internets reaction was so dramatic and unnecessary. Halle did great. my only real gripe with it is she only has like one costume???

Yes Hans Christian Andersson was Danish, but the story is not set in Denmark, its barely set in our world. So the mermaid herself isnt "danish" in any other way than that her original lines were written in danish

Ariel is cousin’s with Hercules cause she’s Poseidon’s granddaughter which means she’s Zeus’ niece. Irrelevant to the point of the video but fun 😀

Calle Andersson 🇸🇪 :
“His version”? 🤔 Hans Christan Andersen’s story is the original story that they made into the movie (the credits in the movie should confirm that), then there are other stories

Denmark had colonies in the Caribbean... so the remake is a more accurate depiction of the story. Ariel was Caribbean, flounder in the original Disney movie was Jamaican.

poland also has a mermaid - the name warsaw comes from combining two names - wars (the fisherman) and sawa (the mermaid). it's a very popular theme so idk why people are so pissed off

That is a desperate stretch. The remake was of the original Disney version- not a brand new story.

And even the Danish one is Italian as Hans Christian Anderson visited Italy a year before writing the Little Mermaid and described Italian beaches in his Little Mermaid

Denmark actually had colonies in the Caribbean (then called Danish West Indies now known as US Virgin Islands) at the time that Hans published the little mermaid, so you can say it very much is still “Danish”.
