Disney Princess It Girl: Snow White's Pop Culture Evolution

Tara Block — Tue, 15 May 2012 13:42:42 PDT

We've all got fairy tales on the brain, as the very first Disney princess, Snow White, is having her moment in the sun. Two star-studded movies about Snow White, her evil stepmother, and those seven mining dwarfs are hitting the big screen this year. First up was the Lily Collins-Julia Roberts version Mirror Mirror, and come June 1 Kristen Stewart will take on the role in Snow White and the Huntsman. Just last night, Kristen and her costars Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron came out for the London premiere of SWATH.

While the flicks differ in many ways, they both portray the heroine as more of a modern woman, who doesn't need a Prince Charming to sweep her off her feet. This is a far cry from the Disney version we're all familiar with, but Snow White has taken on many different forms since being brought to the masses by the Brothers Grimm in their 1812 German fairy tale Schneewittchen und die sieben Zwerge (Snow White and the Seven Dwarves). Find out more about the inspiration for their tale and how Snow White has been portrayed in literature, art, film, and TV over the years.

Dueling Snow White Movies: How to Tell Them Apart

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 14:57:54 PDT

2012 is the year of Snow White. There are currently two different films on their way into the theater based on the classic fairy tale: Universal's Snow White and the Huntsman, due June 1, 2012, and Relativity's Mirror Mirror, which is scheduled to open this weekend. As they've come together, it's been tough keeping up with the separate films and trying to not get them confused, so I'm helping you out. Check out who's who in each movie now before you see them and have the chance to determine which movie is the fairest of them all.

See Even More Pics of Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen, Armie Hammer's Prince Charming in Snow White

The battle between the dueling Snow White movies just got a little more exciting, thanks to new pictures from Relativity's still untitled film. We've already seen Lily Collins as the young fairy-tale icon, but now we've got a taste of Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen and Armie Hammer as Prince Charming. Hammer looks picture perfect as Snow's knight in shining armor while Roberts looks deliciously wicked (if not a bit reminiscent of the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland). Check 'em out.

Buzz In: Who Would You Cast as the New Snow White?

BuzzSugar — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 12:30:49 PDT

Brett Ratner is looking to do with Snow White what Tim Burton did with Alice in Wonderland. The director has jumped on board to produce an edgier version of the fairy tale that will be less Disney-fied and more in line with the darker tones of the Brothers Grimm (hence its tentative title: The Brothers Grimm: Snow White). Forget sweet woodland animals - this time, the dwarfs are robbers, and a dragon will make an appearance. Oh, and like most recent releases, it's in 3D.

I'm not sure how I feel about the same man who brought us Rush Hour taking on a beloved fairy tale, but let's talk casting for the iconic role. I can almost picture someone like Emma Watson or Lucy Hale, but who would you like to see in the part?

Etsy Find: Cool Vinyl Laptop Decals

GeekSugar — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 12:05:19 PDT

If the Twilight laptop skin isn't your thing, then maybe this selection of cool and geeky ones will be. I first found this awesome Snow White laptop decal (which reminded me of yet another Twilight-themed decal), which incorporates your Apple logo into the piece. But then I kept browsing the shop and got hooked on all of the totally geeky decals, which can be used on your laptop, your Kindle, your walls, or wherever you want to stick 'em.

Good news is that these decals were made to be attached and then pulled off later, so you won't have any sticky residue after you've outgrown your artsy vinyl. Plus, with prices starting at $13 each, you can't really go wrong. Check out a few more of my faves below!
