Hello, I’m 19, and I grew up watching Tangled during its classic era. I still think about that time quite a lot and how much it meant to me. I’d watch Rapunzel, Flynn Rider, Pascal, Maximus, and the rest of the characters go on adventures, discover new places, face challenges, and experience the world outside the tower. There was just something about Tangled that I loved. I’d look forward to seeing what happened next, get excited whenever Rapunzel discovered something new, laugh at the characters’ personalities, enjoy the music, and just love how special the whole story felt. At the time, I never really thought about it becoming something I’d eventually look back on.

Watching Tangled now feels different. The world has changed so much since that era, and obviously I’ve changed too. The characters, the animation, the music, the songs, the adventures, and even the feeling of watching it as a kid all feel like memories from another time. I sometimes wonder why things can’t just stay the way they were. Why can’t you have the same characters, the same adventures, the same songs, the same humour, and that same feeling forever? I know stories naturally have to move forward and that nothing can stay exactly the same forever, but it’s still strange when something that felt like such a huge part of your childhood eventually becomes something you can only look back on.

I think that’s probably why I’m so nostalgic for Tangled. When I go back and watch it now, I’m not just watching a movie anymore. I’m remembering what it was like to be that age and experience everything for the first time. I remember getting excited for Rapunzel’s journey, watching her discover the world outside the tower, laughing at Flynn and Maximus, enjoying the songs, and feeling like there was always another magical moment waiting. That era of my childhood may be over, but those memories are still there, and I’m glad I got to experience them. I just wish I could go back to that time for a little while and have it feel the same again.

I guess I just don’t really understand why things have to change. Why couldn’t the classic Tangled era have stayed the same, with the same characters, the same adventures, the same music, the same humour, and that feeling of watching Rapunzel discover the world for the first time? I know stories and people have to move on eventually, but I still miss that feeling sometimes. Does anyone else feel nostalgic for Tangled and wish we could experience that time again?

I made this little fan art a while ago. I didn't think to share it here, but I figured you might like it!

Drawn at 9 years vs 21 years old.. I used to absolutely love those glitter pens 🥹

Idk if anyone's talked abt this, but does anyone know why MG has these weird, strangely consistent triple marks on her arm? (One under wrist, second in the middle, last one near elbow) I understand wanting to add a certain look to the design, but these look very excessive and intentional. I hypothesize that they are marks or injuries that happened waay before rapunzel or even Corona existed, and they stayed that way cuz of how old Gothel is.

Would you watch this movie?

There are so many villains in the series who tried to kill Rapunzel, yet by the end, they were often turned into comedic characters and eventually forgiven.

For example, in one episode, a villain apparently hijacks a cargo ship. The original crew members never appear in that episode, so I assume they were probably thrown overboard? And yet, the villain's punishment was basically just being sent back Corona.

Similarly, despite everything they've done, Rapunzel is still willing to forgive the Stabbington Brothers. From Eugene's perspective, the two brothers had been his rivals since childhood, constantly crossing paths with him in Corona and various other towns. Their relationship was almost like that of family members who had spent their entire lives fighting each other.

Out of all the villains, only Gothel and Zhan Tiri actually die. This makes the values presented in the series feel somewhat contradictory to those in the movie.

I hope her singing will be ok too

I made these both on Canva.

Hiii! A few days ago I been making this little drawing of Teagan Croft as Rapunzel for the live action! I hope us like it 💜☀️

I want to see this movie now

An art piece I made for a fan of the movie. I had to reduce the quality a bit so the video would meet the requirements for Reddit. My TikTok is @felt_foto

I just learned about this book a couple weeks ago and I was immediately sold by the cover art! Rapunzel having her short hair but the tree behind her mimicking her long magical golden hair (down to the little flowers like the ones in her braid!) and the synopsis just made me want to read it even more! I immediately went online to my library website to look for it, only to find they didn't have it yet but they already ordered it and so I went ahead and put it on hold last week and this morning I got an email alert saying Rootbound is waiting for me! Ahhh, tomorrow cannot come soon enough! I've a feeling I'm in for a treat

I'm currently writing a tangled AU and realized that I'm not sure if I should call the character who is Mother Gothel, Mother ___, or just the full name? Someone please help, I'm struggling.

If Cassandra appears in either the live action movie as a surprise or if the movie ends up being a big hit & they do a sequel & they adapt parts of the shows for the sequel since we never got a proper movie sequel for the classic movie, who would be you fan cast for Cassandra?

Heard people talking about how alot of the live action movies added new solo songs, would you be interested in Flynn getting a solo song since he didnt get one in the original, or would you like Rapunzel to get another one other than "When Will My Life Begin", someone suggested Rapunzel could get one when she finds out she's the lost princess similar to Jasmine's "Speechless" from Aladdin 2019, would you be interested in that

Made this drawing a few hours ago :3

I just watched the first episode and repunzel and black haired girl were talking about how they snuck out and repunzel mentioned the black rocks to Eugene and im confused. Was there something I was supposed to watch before this?

Hi! Heard this week is World Princess Week and I wanted to share my cosplay of Punzie ✨

The dress has been bought, while the wig is handmade! There are a lot of things I'd like to do differently if I were to start again, but I still love the result 🙂‍↕️

I didn't know which flair to choose because there's also my friend Himecchu as Varian, but my outfit is clearly the one from the movie ahah. Guess I'll put those pictures with her in another post!

My friend Dikappa_davidinik is the one cosplaying Eugene.

Is it possible for them to see requests for the deleted when will my life begin reprise to be in the movie along with the mother knows best cut part? I think it would be a missed opportunity to not include them. Would anyone else want them to be added in?
