Let's face it: we live in a man's world. If you don't think that's true, slap yourself and take a look at the real world. Under Iranian Islamic law, if a woman isn't a virgin when she's married, she gets 100 lashes. Harsh. Men are even paid madami than women on average, and that's in the United States.
Now, I am a feminist. Before anyone throws something at me, I want to say that people are misconstruing feminism, and it's making me sick. Feminism isn't about burning bras or hating men, it's about equality. It's about a world where no gender is oppressed. And Disney can have a big part in that.
How? Think about it. What do most little girls want to be when they grow up? A princess. And where do they learn that? Disney. Now, of course that little girl will have her dreams crushed, but the time she spent waiting for Prince Charming could have been used doing something useful. Take it from Tiana, "Fairytales can come true, you gotta make 'em happen, it all depends on you." What world will we be in if half the population, scratch that, ALL of the population, nakakita women as dames to be rescued?
Well, gone are the damsel in distress classic princesses. Here is a new age, where the Disney god has granted us a warrior princess, a working princess, and the idea that true pag-ibig can actually be found between sisters, not mga manliligaw (gasp! Who'd have thunk?)
Disney still has a long way to go, though. Girls may realize that they create their own path, but they also need to realize that there is no one beauty standard.
Girls don't need waists smaller then their heads to be beautiful, or eyes that take up half their face, or long, flowing hair. And nearly every princess has these attributes.
How about a chunky princess, with womanly curves that don't come from not having a ribcage? How about a princess with a pixie cut? And especially (though this will be in the far, far, future) a gay princess?
As you can see, Disney is slowly regaining my respect. But they still have a long way to go.

Now in terms of Cinderella, it would be a little easier to make a TV series from her movie.
Premise:
The way I see it, there are two ways this series could go about: 1. It could take place before the events of movie, specifically, after Cinderella's father dies and the Tremaines take over. Or it could take place after Sinderella goes to the ball, just so we can have Fairy Godmother as a regular character. Now personally, I'd prefer if the series took place right after Cindy's father passed away just to ipakita the early years of her life, but then again, having it take place after the ball as previously stated, would have Fairy Godmother as a regular and would add magic and spells to the mix.
