Representation in Film
I'm thinking about exploring how women and men are portrayed in animated films (looking at stereotypes).
Articles that look interesting:
Postwar Princesses, Young Apprentices, and a Little Fish-Girl: Reading Subjectivities in Hayao Miyazaki's Tales of Fantasy
Shannon Brownlee - Masculinity Between Animation and Live Action, or, Spongebob v. Hasselhoff
Lynne Perras - "Steadier, happier, and quicker at the work"? Women in Canadian Animation
Maybe?
Refusing the Stereotype
Gender Role Portrayal and the Disney Princesses
The Empowering (Super) Heroine?

Article:
History of disney princesses and princes, and how the disney film titles had to be either gender neutral or masculine because men/boys didn't want to watch a movie that was girlie.
Lots of merchandise from disney movies mainly meant for girls (the princess dolls) but not for boys. Even powerpuff girls' merchandise was meant for girls, not boys.
