Rating the Disney Princes

I have devised a ranking system to give each of the official Disney princes a score out of 100, which will help determine which is the best. While this is completely subjective to my preferences, I think it is a fair way to assess these fictional men. Disney considers ten characters to be their official princes, so for ease, I will be following that list. Without further ado here is my opinion that no one asked for!

Prince Florian: 26/100

• Hair: 6/10 it’s nothing special but I appreciate the bit of fluff in the front

• Outfit: 7/10 an aspect of his outfit is used on almost every prince to follow

• Overall Looks: 6/10 he’s a typical brown haired, white boy

• Song: 4/10 One Song is a continuation of Snow White’s opening song, as he watches her from afar

• Heroism: 1/10 he brings Snow White out of her sleep with a kiss, but he was not trying to be a hero

• Personality: 0/10 his name is not even said in the movie, so we know nothing about him

• Sidekick: 2/10 he has a horse, but we do not know of their relationship

• What are their intentions? 0/10 his intentions are very questionable; he stalks a girl from afar and kisses what he assumes to be her corpse

• How did they meet their princess? 0/10 stalking and necrophilia

• Would I trust them with my drink? 0/10 he does not show any characteristic of being able to protect my drink
