zarabithia:Justine Danzer, creator of the designs that would later become She-Ra, Princess of Power and Barbara Hambly, feminist fantasy author and writer of She-Ra’s “Above It All” episode. Both women are discussing the difficulties they faced in bringing their vision of She-Ra to the screen thanks to male writers, male toy execs, and male censors. Quotes are from Power of Grayskull on Netflix. Anyway, I’m excited for the reboot, but when people dismiss the old She-Ra as “a glorfied toy commercial” in order to prop up the new one, I get mad a lot. There was a lot of work going into the show to make it much more than that, and to the little girls (and boys! And other genders, too) watching the show, it was more than that. -- source link
