Line 147:
* {{spoiler|But the only way that this could work would have been if Evangeline entered an already-created star, since Evangeline actually BECOMING a star means that she would have had to become a star when Tiana was a very young girl (in order for her to wish on that star for her restaurant). That would've made Evangeline-the-star several years old. Ray couldn't have known her as a firefly in that case--he'd have been dead by the time of the movie. Fireflies don't live that long.}}
** Yes, fireflies don't live that long. And alligators don't play trumpet, either.
** Still, consider one of the arguments for Ray/Evangeline being the Second Star on the Right, despite ''[[Peter Pan]]'' taking place well before ''The Princess and the Frog''. Magic can make a timeline just as [[Timey -Wimey Ball|wibbly-wobbly]] as a time travel device in a sci-fi story. It's possible that when Evangeline and Ray became stars, the stars they became came into existence in the past as well.
* This just ''has'' to be written.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6263633/1/Ma_Belle_Evangeline Here ya go]. Straight from the [[The Princess and The Frog (Disney)/Fanfic Recs|Fanfic Recs page]]. Enjoy~!
Line 173:
 
== [[Enchanted|Nathaniel]] was meant to be an ahead-of-time parody of Lawrence. ==
Well, [[Friend to All Living Things|Giselle]], [[Prince Charming|Edward]], [[Non -Human Sidekick|Pip]], and [[God Save Us From the Queen|Narissa]] all were somewhat parodies of previous Disney characters, but where does that leave Nathaniel? What I'm guessing is that because a completely-animated film takes much longer than a live-action-with-some-animation film, they could have been filming at around the same time. Thus, the Enchanted filmmakers figured they might as well make a parody of the Naveen and Lawrence dynamic with Edward and Nathaniel.
** Lawrence is following the tradition of the doddering British sidekick who constantly gets abused, like the [[Cinderella (Disney)|duke]], [[The Little Mermaid|Grimsby]], [[Beauty and The Beast|Cogsworth]], and [[The Lion King|Zazu]]. Nathaniel was probably supposed to be a parody of that, but because he was also villainous, it kind of messed up the twist in this movie when Lawrence went evil because he wasn't putting up with that shit anymore.
 
Line 239:
Dr. Facilier has his friends from the other side take the form of shadows. Oogie seems to be able to control his shadow to sing in the beginning song in Nighmare, so this troper's idea is that Dr. Facilier's "friends" decided to give him [[A Fate Worse Than Death]] - being trapped in a gigiantic burlap sack with living bugs as guts. This drives Facilier mad, making him less [[Genre Savvy]], more sadistic, and [[Murder Arson and Jaywalking|lowered the quality of his grammar]]. So now Dr. Facilier is [[Deader Than Dead|double dead]] first killed when the tailsman was broken, then when he was torn apart.
 
* [[Actor Allusion|But he's]] [[Hey ItsIt's That Voice|not voiced by]] [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment|a big lipped alligator]]
* On the other hand, the fact that the sack isn't his real body, and that his soul was placed in it, could explain why he's so easy to bring back from the dead in the games.

Line 323:
 
== Dr. Facilier got reincarnated as The Arbiter ==
* Since the good doctor sold his soul to the FOTOS for power to make his life easier, they thought it would be a nice bit of [[Laser -Guided Karma]] to have him reincarnate as a [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]] and force him to gather souls the old-fashioned way...with lots and lots of plasma to the face. Even after his [[Heel Face Turn]] at the end of [[Halo]] 2, he's still providing the FOTOS with Covenant souls, assuming they're not that picky. Besides, destroying all sentient life means there won't be any souls left in the long run for the FOTOS to take.
 
== Evangeline is in fact the (or a part of) instrumentalized humans from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' ==
Line 342:
** ''Sit down at my table / Put your mind at ease / If you relax it will enable me to do anything I please...'' Clearly a reference to Indoctrination.
 
** ''Transformation Central! / Reformation Central! / Transmogrification Central!'' Not really eveidence, but playing thatis bit in the back of my head during Saren's [[One -Winged Angel]] act is the only way I can [[Nightmare Fuel|get to sleep]] after watching [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-wKL_PwY8E this cutscene].
 
** A final point of evidence: [[Keith David]]'s voice is very [[Even the Guys Want Him|sexy.]] Case in point, imagine my dumb-ass theory being read in [[Voice of Dramatic|his voice]]. Doesn't it sound so much more reasonable now?
Line 349:
* [[Memetic Mutation|Ah yes, "Reapers." The immortal race of sentient starships allegedly waiting in Disney Animated Canon. We have dismissed that claim.]]
== Dr. Facilier is mixed-race. ==
With his skin tone and features it is entirly possible that he was the son of an African-American and a Caucasian. This would also make him a [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|Woobie]] as back than people who were mixed-race were preduiced against along with other ethnicies. His parents would not be able to marry and back then it was still very shaming to be born to un-married parents. He might not even have been able to see his father.
 
== The "Shadow Demons" are the ghosts of Disney villains past. ==
