Lil Red Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) the kingdom her parents run is pretty cr[i][/i]appy. ryder gets arrested during the night, and the next morning he is going to be executed? (what for, by the way? for stealing a crown? really? or is it all his crimes together?) what about right of due process? or a trial by jury? or anything from the sixth amendment? and at the end of the movie, he says something like, "she ruled as her parents before her, a kingdom of kindness and justice" (or something like that, i can't remember)... really? a kingdom where prisoners have no rights is not a good kingdom. it's a bad one. edit: the quote is 'beloved by all, she lead the kingdom with all the grace and wisdom of her parents before her.'

After all, following the rescue of Rapunzel, they put a HORSE in charge of it, so was the guy in charge before really THAT great? (Although, I suppose Maximus is pretty amesome...)
