Nick: You like playing games don't you?

Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Belle as The Plastics and Lindsay Lohan as Ariel? It's a note-perfect Disney mashup and, like Lindsay, Ariel is well aquatinted with crabs. (Link via Urlesque)

Oh George, can't you just leave well enough alone? There's only so much we can take! Get New Hairstyle by Lucas de Alcantara at Threadless.

Oh, no! I've turned into a Star Wars t-shirt blog! Damn, how'd that happen?

The Virgin Princess Peach

Our Mother of Video Games. She's a perfect fit for all the Last Supper parodies that keep showing up around here. Of course in those she is often sitting in the place of the Apostle John (or Mary Magdelene if you believe Dan Brown.) Still, she could still be Jesus Mario's mom - it would explain why he's so desperate to rescue her. (From Kotaku, via Geekologie)

The Life Of A Disney Princess

Disney Princesses, Deconstructed: From Snow White to Belle, if you're hot a man will save you. I feel for all the parents who shepherded little princesses around last night. I just trailed around a pirate. Not a Somali pirate, but still.

From Sociological Issues, who took a nice bit of satire and killed it with treatises on patriarchy, monarchy and Disney as a "force of evil in the world."

Anyone seen the original of this? I looked, but everyone is just referencing the last site they saw it on. Ah well, I tried.

Twisted Sisters

Pop culture artist Jeffrey Thomas's Twisted Princesses series shows some not-so-fairytale damsels, exploring a world where there wasn't a happy ending at the end of the story.

Thanks to the fine eye of John at The Zeray Gazette.

Snow White & The Depressing Reality

Photographer Dina Goldstein's series Fallen Princesses looks at fairy tale princesses and their harshly realistic modern day lifestyles. Seems not everybody ends happily ever after.


I love the Cinderella photo for the Labbats Blue sign in the corner, which told me Goldstein must be Canadian. Sure enough, she's from Vancouver. Wow, Cinderella goes from being the belle of the ball to a Vancouver dive bar. Harsh. (Link via The Daily What)
