Which Disney Princesses did not make the cut?


We know from the answers here Is there an official list of Disney Princesses? that some princess dont make it onto the Official list. Which Princesses in Disney movies are NOT official Disney Princesses, and are there reasons why?



Answer




The Disney Wikia maintains a pretty solid (and ongoing updated) answer to this very question.


The Official Disney Princess lineup doesn't include a number of bona-fide princesses who've appeared in animated feature films released by Walt Disney Studios;



  • Queen (formerly Princess) Anna and Queen (formerly Princess) Elsa from Frozen

  • Princess Nala from the Lion King and Princess Kiara from The Lion King II

  • Princesses Adella, Alana, Andrina, Aquata, Arista and Attina from The Little Mermaid and Princess Melody from The Little Mermaid II

  • President (formerly Princess) Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck-it Ralph

  • Princess Kida Nedakh from Atlantis the Lost Empire

  • Princess Nancy from Enchanted

  • Princess Tiger Lily from Peter Pan


  • Princesses Sofia, Amber, Clio, Jun, Vivian and Hildegard from Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess, Princess Ivy from Sofia the First: The Curse of Princess Ivy and Princesses Oona and Cora from Sofia the First: The Floating Palace

  • Princesses Ting-Ting, Su and Mei from Mulan II

  • Princesses Atta and Dot from A Bug's Life

  • Princess Minnie Mouse of France from Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers

  • Princess Eilonwy of Llyr from The Black Cauldron

  • Princess Dawn from Strange Magic


Several princesses have also appears in various live-action properties



  • Princesses Audrey, Evie and Anxelin from Descendants


  • Princess Chelina of Zaragoza from Cinderella (2015)

  • Princess Draupadi from Arjun: The Warrior Prince

  • Princess Ozma from Return to Oz

  • Princess Tamina from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

  • Princess Dejah Thoris from John Carter

  • Princess Elspeth from Dragonslayer

  • Princesses May Belle of Terabithia from Bridge to Terabithia (note, self-appointed)

  • Princess Aida from Trenchcoat

  • Princess Milli Chakravarty from Khoobsurat

  • Princesses Katey and Sarah from A Kid in King Arthur's Court


  • Princess Rosalinda Flore from Princess Protection Programme

  • Princesses Mia Thermopolis and Palisades from The Princess Diaries and Princesses Hannah, Lorraine, Charlee, Alexandra, Aimee, Nicole, Nadia, Claudia, Nadege, Maui, Grace and Camille from The Princess Diaries II

  • Princess Winnifred from Once Upon a Mattress

  • Princess Leia of Alderaan from the Star Wars franchise


Notably, Esmeralda was removed from the official lineup in 2004. Other characters have failed to make the cut for a number of reasons, usually due to their films simply being too unpopular niche to justify their inclusion into the official pantheon.


It's also noteworthy that several of the "princesses" aren't actually princesses at all. Mulan is married to a General, Pocahontas is the daughter of an American-Indian tribal chief and Moana is the daughter of a Polynesian Tribal chieftain.

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

aliens - Interstellar Zoo story

I vaguely remember this story from my childhood: it was about an interstellar zoo that came to Earth with lots of bizarre and unusual species, and humans would file through and gape at all the crazy looking creatures from other planets. The twist came at the end when the perspective shifted to the other side of the bars and we discovered that the "creatures" were traveling through space on a kind of safari. They thought they were the visitors and we were the animals. Neither side knew that the other side thought they were the zoo creatures. Answer Got it. Zoo, by Edward D. Hoch. Published in 1958.

harry potter - What is the difference between Diffindo and Sectumsempra?

In the Harry Potter books, Diffindo is called the 'Severing Charm' and it’s most commonly used to cut ropes and the like. However, in the last book Hermione uses it on Ron but misses, creating a 'slash in his jeans' and his knee gets cut, causing him to 'roar in pain'. We've only seen Sectumsempra used once on screen when Harry directly uses it on Malfoy in the sixth book, but there it's mentioned that he is 'waving his wand wildly'. Wouldn't Diffindo, if used in such a fashion also cause a similar effect? Similarly, if it was able to cut Ron, it would also be able to, say, chop off an ear (George's)? In that case, how are these two spells different, except for Sectumsempra seemingly used exclusively to hurt humans? Answer While Diffindo and Sectumsempra both can be countered by other spells, Diffindo is far more easily countered. Reparo, a relatively common spell, can completely reverse its effect when used once. “He pulled the old cop...

harry potter - How could Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra?

I want to be very careful about how I ask this question – I am not asking How did Voldemort die? [CLOSED] Below the text is the relevant passages from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows if anyone wants to review them (I'm sorry for the amount of text). How did Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra and kill Voldemort? I feel the reason Harry's Expelliarmus overpowered Voldemort's Avada Kedavra curse has to do with who was master of the Elder Wand and how the Elder Wand works. I've always had trouble understanding fully how the Elder Wand works, though. How much did the fact that Voldemort never truly won or mastered the Elder Wand factor into how Expelliarmus reacted to Avada Kedavra and caused Avada Kedavra to rebound and kill Voldemort? An answer based in book canon would be especially welcome, but any canon source really is fine. Harry heard the high voice shriek as he, too, yelled his best hope to the heavens, pointing Draco’s wand: ‘ Avada Kedavra !’ ‘ Expelliarmus !...
