• The Disney intro is "Little Mermaid-ified".
• Ariel has locs in the movie because that's how Halle likes to wear her hair.

If the connection between the fairy tale and Andersen's real life is accurate, it's a heartbreaking analogy. "The Little Mermaid" ends in tragedy, with the object of her affection marrying someone else, leaving her to die brokenhearted.

There's No Dream Too Big or Too Small Aside from the mistakes and challenges she went through, she still achieved her goal and got to explore the human world.

The Happy Meal did not introduce the practice of providing small toys to children. When the Happy Meal was launched in 1979, the toys were a McDoodle stencil, a McWrist wallet, an ID bracelet, a puzzle lock, a spinning top or a McDonaldland character-shaped eraser.

As it turns out, the main reason that toys have four eyes is because McDonald's collaborated with streetwear brand Cactus Plant Flea Market on their designs. The brand is known for their off-beat designs, and one of their signature elements has long been a face with four eyes.

Ursula makes Ariel forget about the kiss. In both Disney movies, Ariel has to get a kiss from Eric to remain a human forever. But in the new movie, just to be sure Ariel won't get the job done, Ursula sprinkles a little extra magic on her to make her forget that she's supposed to kiss the prince.

Ursula Ursula is a fictional character who appears as the main antagonist in Walt Disney Pictures' 28th animated feature film The Little Mermaid (1989).

As the plot develops, the Little Mermaid sacrifices her comfortable life as a mermaid to transform into a human in an attempt to win the affection of the prince. Ultimately the Little Mermaid is faced with a decision to either murder her beloved or die. Thematically, Andersen's story is one of love and self-sacrifice.
