Good question for us who collect animated movies,
tsom, as I'm assuming we also like/love them and dreamed of being in their animated worlds!
I lot of you are saying you'd only do it if you could go back. Ha. I suppose I'm too romantic for my own good, but I believe if you've met the love of your life, your true love, they are the top most priority and you will be most happy with them. You may be sad when you think of all you miss in your old world, but you would be sadder missing your true love and happier with your true love. Also, Edward's world in particular, from everything Nancy could tell about him from his costume and the way he acted and, well, the whole finale, his world would be my cup of tea.
Now, as for what
Siren said, I have a huge issue with, because she said "First, I don't believe in love at first sight. If I ever felt that way, its 100% lust. And
I feel its that way for everyone, be they want to believe it or not."
You have a good point,
Siren, that Nancy did what Robert said Giselle people in the real world didn't do. Which could be a way of the movie saying that it can happen in the real world (even though Edward's from the animated world, perhaps his enchanting love is strong enough to captivate in the real world).
But love at first sight is possible, or at least love that happens fast or without knowing a lot about someone.
I looked up lust on dictionary.com, and it said
this. I similarly looked up love, and found
this.
I don't want to bring my own love life onto this board to be judged, dissected, or had things about it decided on, but I suppose I must at least reference it for this. The times I fell in love, well, they're complicated. I'll just use the first time I ever felt I did. I thought someone was cute, and well, of course that gave me some new, nice feelings, and those I would call sexual desire. I often looked at this boy in class, and one day, he and I looked at each other a lot, and finally, he smiled at me. I quickly turned away as something I'd never felt came over me. Butterflies came, along with probably the adreneline and fast heart beating, I just can never tell when my heart is beating faster unless I feel my hand on it, I'm rather dumb like that. But I don't see how this could have been lust, which would be just wanting him for his body. From then on I found out he liked animals and it was so cute, and then he just did very kind things for me/with me which only made what I felt grow stronger. It's some feeling in the stomach, I've never felt like I felt anything in my actual, literal heart, and someone who I know who has gotten to know a boy he loves says the same thing, so I am so sure that I fell in, if not love at first sight, the Disney princess love where you don't need much to happen for love to happen. The objects of your affections incredibley don't need to make many movements
too move you, and it's not sexual, it's not lust. It's love.
Uh, I almost forgot to add that I also cared for this boy, and honestly it doesn't feel as much or in the same way I now think is more like the real love you think can only be achieved through more knowledge of someone. Like, whenever I would see or hear of him getting picked on or any negative things to come to him. But I tend to feel bad for anyone anyway...
If this adds anything, I don't recall ever thinking of sexual things to do with who I love, but romantic things. Oh, sure, hugging and kissing is touching and could be viewed as sexual, but it's also considered more about love than grabbing someone's ass or recieving sexual gratification from then. But I must tell you I think I have a low sex drive or something because I actually have never wanted to have sex with anyone until I felt I was super duper in love, (which, I'm prepared to hear, is the only love there is and I was not in love in the instance I revealed to you) and not so much for sexual gratification but more as a way of physically connecting to whom I love, and sharing an experience.
Aside from my experience,
Siren, I wonder if you could consider love at first, not sight, but first meeting (although "love at first sight" is a phrase that could mean that, too). Albeit not with the smartest/experienced people in the world, but still possible. Consider someone who has odd secrets or very particular passions they've never found in anyone else, but then they meet someone who is of the right sex who shares these same secrets or passions, and also some characteristics or personality traits the person has or has always wanted in someone else. Thatperson would feel like they know them, because they are som much like themselves. That may be dumb, but dumb thoughts are always possible. Perhaps you think someone wouldn't be able to find these in so little time, but consider, well, a Disney princess.
Aurora has never seen a human, really. Her aunts are disguised fairies. And women, at that. Aurora may have seen men in pictures and been taught about them, which is probable because she knows what Phillip is whens she sees him. But she's never ever met a man before, and he shares alot with her. Aside from humanity, he shares youth, and singing, and dancing, and that he sings her same song helps too, like they have similar tastes in music! But anyway, now consider yourself. You need to find someone who has similar interests, love of pets, etc. Similarities. And Phillip and Aurora may have very basic ones, but hey, they're even similar in looks (and they say most working couples look like each other or are of the same attractiveness).
It doesn't really matter what the similarities are, just that they're there, so I say it's very possible Aurora fell in love with Phillip and didn't just think she did, because it's all she knew, just like you may have a lot more things you look for in a partner, but it's all
you know, too. In the real world a case as extreme as Aurora and Phillip may not work, but the general idea is they are very young and perhaps if they broke up they would need more things to make them fall in love, but that doesn't mean it will always take so many things for love for everyone. What if we get this increbile feeling for someone, they break our hearts, and then we are more demanding and needs more things to get that same feeling again? It's the same feeling, just achieved after more complexities.
As far as if I would go there... I don't know. If you could go and come back when you want, well then maybe. It seems pretty wacky in the animated world.
