The Little Mermaid.
I said on the previous round why I don't find Aladdin as romantic as others. Of course, the experience would definetely be romantic, but in Aladdin and Jasmine's case it isn't romantic. A minute before the scene, Jasmine was very rude with Al, and he was so not himself; I find both factors unromantic. Also, just listen to the lyrics!!! They aren't romantic!!! They are more hopeful; the characters express they want liberty and how good it is to have it.
I also find the scenery not as romantic as TLM. Aladdin's scene is dark in color, the sky is extremely dark. Many of the places aren't that "love-mood" - starting. A pyramid isn't a romantic sight Agrabah isn't much of a romantic sight either. Clouds and funny birds aren't that romantic. The only part I could find somewhat romantic is the "Greek" part.
Again, such an experience would only be romantic if you spent it with someone you love, which wasn't exactly the situation with Al and Jasmine.
In the case of TLM, a blue lagoon with such beautiful "falling" trees is beautiful, especially with the fireflies as lights. The sky was beautiful throughout the scene, too. It started out with a pink, sun-setting sky and then got dark.
As for the experience Ariel and Eric shared, it definetely was romantic. We all know Ariel was in love with him, and previously they had shared many moments together. First of all, they lived together. They spent dinner together. They greeted and smiled at each other at night (he from outside as she was in her room's balcony or window (don't remember)). They also went out together to tour the town, riding together in a carriage. They also danced there!!!
Clearly, by the time they went to the lagoon, they had a nice relationship in which both were interested in each other.
And at the actual scene we are talking about, the silence among them was romantic... They just kept looking at each other's eyes, kinda knowing they liked each other, even though Ariel couldn't speak. There was also so much tension because of the silence!!! There was also tension because Eric wanted to kiss her, and the fact that Ariel couldn't speak made it more challenging to do so.
I just find TLM's "Kiss the Girl" much more romantic than Aladdin's "A Whole New World".
Remember: we are voting for the most romantic scene, not just what 'experience' (carpet ride or boat on blue lagoon) you find more romantic.
