Very self indulgent doodle of the popular "Maid Marian should have been a lioness in the movie" headcanon that I personally enjoy quite a bit I'd like to draw more this AU in the future, since I'm to no surprise a fan of the film and the pair of Robin and Marian

Another alternative ending for that silly lioness Maid Marian sequence. Havent done one of those in a while. Part 1. Now that Robin and Marian are both giants they get married and will spend a long life together.

Character Ask: Maid Marian (Disney)
Favorite thing about them: Her blend of sweetness, elegance and romanticism with playfulness and adventurousness. She's both a quintessential "lady fair" for a hero of legend to love and a true kindred spirit to Robin Hood.
Least favorite thing about them: I wish her role were bigger, and while it's perfectly fine that she's not much of a fighter, I wish she were slightly more involved in the action than just throwing one pie in a guard's face.
Three things I have in common with them:
*I like pink and lavender.
*I get along well with children.
*I admire people who defy oppressors and help the poor.
Three things I don't have in common with them:
*I'm not a king's niece.
*I'm not British.
*I'm not an anthropomorphic fox.
Favorite line: When Robin proposes marriage mid-battle:
"Oh, darling, I thought you'd never ask me! But you could have chose a more romantic setting!"
brOTP: Lady Kluck.
OTP: Robin Hood.
nOTP: Prince John, Sir Hiss, or the Sheriff of Nottingham.
Random headcanon: I'll take this one from TV Tropes: She's the niece of Berengaria of Navarre, King Richard's wife, making her Richard's niece by marriage. This explains why she's a vixen instead of a lioness, and why neither she nor Prince John behave as if they're related to each other.
Unpopular opinion: I don't think I have one.
Song I associate with them:
"Love"

Favorite picture of them:

Since Maid Mariam is the cousin of Richard and John, you think Eleanor of Aquitaine was a lioness or a fox? (considering them being different species)
I'm pretty sure she was a lioness. Cousin could be so many varied levels of closeness.( Plus they only made Marian a fox to match with Robin xD )

For some reason it’s not letting me answer the ask the way I want to, so... Annon-Guy Asked:  Annon-Guy: How do you feel about movies from Dreamworks? Like Shrek, Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda, Trolls, How to Train Your Dragon, Monsters VS. Aliens, Flushed Away, ANTZ and The Road to El Dorado. You can even include their recent movie, The Bad Guys, if you want too. Dreamworks has some of the best and some of the worst stuff, honestly. Shrek? Masterpiece. Unironically. A very good deconstruction, subversion and also embrace of Fairy Tale Tropes. Shrek 2? Superior to the first mostly because of the brilliant foreshadowing and the inclusion of Puss in Boots. Shrek 3? The worst Shrek. Thematically I understand what it was going for, but it was very ham-fisted. Shrek Forever After? Better than a lot of people give it credit for. Not as many good jokes, I'll admit, but actually a decent love story. The Madagascar series is... mediocre. The first one was fine, and the lemurs and penguins are the least annoying in that one. I enjoyed the premise but it was a lot of faffing about and I don't have many fond memories of it since I only saw it once or twice. Escape 2 Africa was honestly a lot better in my opinion. Bonus points for the absolutely insane move to pair up the Giraffe and Hippo. Not quite as epic as the Donkey and the Dragon from Shrek in terms of insane and unexpected cross-species pairings, but honestly, in movies where the animals are stand-ins for people, it's bewildering when things like, say, Disney's Robin Hood make Maid Marian a fox so she matches Robin so adults don't have to think about breeding when the only reason Robin is a fox is because he's clever and we associate cleverness with foxes. As nobility, and not exceptionally clever nobility, there's no reason Maid Marian couldn't have been a lioness other than the fact that Disney didn't want to go with a strange Kermit and Ms. Piggy situation. So props for something like Madagascar, where the animals are CLEARLY still animals despite being anthropomorphized, to actually have the balls to be like "Yeah, it's weird logistically speaking, but the Hippo and Giraffe have chemistry so fuck it, they get to be a couple now." Europe's Most Wanted is the second best one. The weird romance between King Julien and the bear is actually pretty damn funny with the melodrama, and the absolutely insane Animal Control woman are definitely highlights. The Gia and Alex romance was a little forced and I'm honestly so burnt out on the "Liar Revealed" plot where the whole crew has to break up for 10 minutes in the third act for tension that I kind of felt the movie would have been better without those bits but, like. I understand movies have to movie and that subplot was popular at the time and movies do better landing with mixed audiences if they have romances and yadda yadda. But, like. If they had to go with the romances, they could have made them better. Alex and Gia did have some chemistry when they were practicing trapeze together but the movie isn't nearly enough of that to make it engaging. The King Julien romance gets a pass because it's not a focal point and not trying to be. It's trying to be comedy and it works. As for the Liar Revealed plot, that works best when the liars lies actually harm the people they're lying to. This works well in something like The Tigger Movie where the stakes are mostly emotional. The gang pretending to be Tigger's family upsets him because he feels like they're belittling him and his wish to get in touch with other's like him. It's done even better in Aladdin, in my opinion. Aladdin's lie is wrong because it's solely to take advantage of Jasmine's "stupidity." Or the stupidity of others involved mostly. But Jasmine was told that he DIED and he comes waltzing back in with a new title and EVEN WHEN THEY'RE IN PRIVATE he doesn't admit to her that "Hey, I'm actually the guy you met in the market place. She's not mad at him later when it comes out he's a commoner. She liked him before he had any of the princely titles or any of that. She liked him for who he was. But she IS mad at him for not telling her who he was when he had the chance to. In Madagascar, the only reason they had to lie was for their own safety. And really, once they joined up with the troupe, they WERE technically circus performers. Lying, even for good reason, can be damaging, and I'm not suggesting the message of "lying can be hurtful" inherent to the trope is a bad message. Children, the target audience, can especially benefit from learning the value of honesty. But if the only reason the lie is bad is because it's a lie, it kind of loses its bite. The other troupe members aren't hurt because the lie caused troubles. Their acts improved immensely with the help of Alex and friends. The only person with anything approaching a sensible reason for why the lie was bad was the sealion who pointed out that, yeah, getting fired out of a cannon with no training is dangerous and he could have died. But that's not really what the movie tries to sell us on. The movie tries to sell us on the idea that pretending to be circus performers is inherently a violation, not because it put the others in danger while performing, but because being a fake circus performer is like being a fake doctor. And that angle could work, but in addition to burnout on the trope and better examples from other movies, I just don't like it in Madagascar 3. Especially because a similar thing was done so much better in Madagascar 2. And Dreamworks did the Liar Revealed plot much better with How to Train Your Dragon 2 years before Madagascar 3. Penguins of Madagascar was alright. A bunch of silly nonsense in my opinion, but I only saw it once. Probably my least favorite.Kung Fu Panda was alright. I never got around to watching it until I was an adult, but I liked the message. Jokes were kind of hit or miss, but Jack Black makes any role amazing and I appreciate that while there are some Fat Jokes, Po doesn't have to slim down to become a Kung Fu master. In fact, having a lot of weight to throw around works to his advantage. The Kung Fu is more about using the body he has to the fullest advantage and learning discipline rather than having to be the fastest or strongest. After all, strongmen that actually do heavy lifting aren't chiseled hunks. They actually need a healthy layer of fat to protect their muscles. Also Master Oogway is amazing and there's a lot of Daoism present in the philosophy of the movie. Kung fu Panda 2 had some guts putting in the Panda Genocide. I know a lot of movies and shows play with darker themes and skirt around the implications and nothing will ever get as close to a nuanced discussion of genocide as Avatar: The Last Airbender. But honestly, props to movies that actually have the guts to do that. Other than that, it was just a sort of pleasant time-killer? Not as good as the first but not bad. Decent message about coming to terms with grief and the past but nothing remarkable. I haven't seen the 3rd one yet but I saw the little bonus material with the backstories of the Furious Five. Nothing spectacular and not quite Aesop's fables, but nice little self-contained moral stories for kids.I saw the first Trolls movie once or twice and saw a review of the second one. I like a decent Jukebox musical so it was fine in that regard but there's nothing about it that makes me want to watch it again. I did enjoy the media analysis done by Big Joel, but that's about the only thing valuable I got out of the movie and I think kids wouldn't catch on to that subtle stuff since I, an adult, had to be shown by another adult how to see it from that perspective. If it was on in the background, I wouldn't yell about it and if I had nothing better to do I'd watch, but it's not in a catalogue of things I'd keep around. (Note to self, do a list at the end of things I'd keep in the catalogue...) How to Train Your Dragon is a gorgeous series of films. Loved the first one. Toothless is just amazingly designed. Wonderful disability representation and a nice message of peaceful solutions, reasonable accommodation, and not forcing people to be measured along a single axis of "worth" in order to be valuable. HTTYD 2 was also an amazing film, great themes, amazing if subtle romance between Stoick and Valka when they reunite that isn't forced to rekindle or advance like nothing ever happened. The only thing I will say is that Stoick died for no reason in my opinion. His death was purely for shock value and tear-jerking. I know it's a common thread to fridge wives, daughters, girlfriends, mothers, and women in general to give the men motivation and little else and I know Stoick's death doesn't exactly qualify because he does exist for other reasons and does help move the plot outside of his death. Mufasa from the Lion King got fridged harder than Stoick. But honestly, I think Stoick's death still counts. I have not seen the third one but I really want to and I haven't seen the animated series yet (I heard it isn't good but I intend to see it.) I saw part of a Christmas Special once but I realized it was set after the third movie so I didn't watch the whole thing.Monsters vs. Aliens might be my least favorite Dreamworks film? I remember the marketing and the character designs were interesting and I remember wanting to see it as a kid but I only got to see it when it showed up on Netflix when I was an adult. The jokes didn't land for me, the story was boring, the premise was interesting but ultimately wasted. I don't remember half of what it was about but I do remember it feeling long and boring. 0/10, would not watch again. I saw Flushed Away once as a kid and remember nothing about it other than rats in suits and the Wallace and Grommet claymation. Sorry. Don't have an opinion. Don't remember hating it so I'd be willing to see it again. Never saw Antz, art style was ugly, even as a kid who loved everything animation. From what I heard, it sucked. I'd be willing to see it once but honestly, with so much on my watchlist, even if it was free, IDK if I could be bothered. The Road to El Dorado is a masterpiece. I love everything about it. I would change nothing, I am still waiting on a sequel, IDEC if we as a society come to regard it as racist at some point (time marches forward and with luck, progress remains progress, inevitably most things sour with age, even innocent fun.) I'll be some artificial consciousness watching the sun explode while we all live in little spheroid unkillable mechs or whatever with no concept of race and I will still be watching the hell out of that movie. Bring it back to Netflix, please. I've watched it 400 times or something and it is STILL not enough. I have not seen The Bad Guys yet, but I'm furry trash and I really want to. You left out Megamind which is also a masterpiece. Not as good as the Road to El Dorado in my opinion, but better than Despicable Me by an incredible margin, and I LIKE the original Despicable Me before the series became a trashfire of marketing the horrendous yellow annoyances known as the Minions. Honorable mention to the Puss in Boots movie that I vaguely remember but only saw once, I saw the sequel is coming up and I'm interested. So, hmm Tier list... Masterpiece: Will force my kids to watch if I ever have any and would want available on my deathbed: Shrek 1, Shrek 2, HTTYD 1, HTTYD 2, The Road to El Dorado Good shit: Will show to future children if I have any and will keep in stock: Shrek 4, Megamind Decent: Will watch again if asked and keep in stock in case an errant desire to revisit emerges: Shrek 3, Puss in Boots, Madagascar 2, Kung Fu Panda Unobjectionable: Will watch if a friend wants to, will suggest other things if available, only kept in stock if I already happen to own it: Madagascar 1, Madagascar 3, Kung Fu Panda 2, Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Furious Five, Trolls 1, Shrek the Halls Yawn: Will not scream if left on in the background. Will watch if there is nothing else available but won't necessarily be happy about it: Penguins of Madagascar, Kill me: Will brick myself to sleep before watching it again, Would much rather do other things: Monsters vs. Aliens Unseen: Unable to form opinion but open to the experience: Puss in Boots: The Three Diablos, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, The Adventures of Puss in Boots, Kung Fu Panda 3, Trolls 2, HTTYD 3, HTTYD Holiday Special, HTTYD Race to the Edge, Flushed Away (seen once, don't remember enough, making my impression roughly equivalent to unseen), The Bad Guys Unseen (Derogatory): Would only see with the expectation of a bad time, would not actively choose to watch it but has no solid negative opinions other than aversion: Madagascar (The TV Series), ANTZ.

Every single person who brings up Zootopia or Beastars to say “This is what you wanted!” when referring to my Maid Marian Should Have Been A Lion post missed the point entirely.
But first, I’ve seen Zootopia at least 20 times, and I’ve been reading Beastars for years now. So YES I am VERY familiar with them and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM!
But the point of Maid Marian being a Lion is that she’s a CLASS TRAITOR, the good kind of class traitor too, so having her ALIGHN PHYSICALLY with the appearance of the upper class and siding with everyone else makes a VISUAL POINT to back up the spoken point of her character.
Also, and this is just as important, ZOOTOPIA AND BEASTARS HAVE THE GUY BE THE BIG CARNIVORE AND THE GIRL BE THE SMALL HERBAVORE!
I WANT TO BE THE BIG CARNIVORE AND THEY GET TO BE THE SMALLER ONE!
...Ehem...
I want her to be the big carnivore. Her.
Tired of women always having to be the “smaller and weaker” appearing one.
I can kick down doors with my thick thighs and I wanna see HER DO THAT TOO, ON SCREEN! IT’S WHAT WE DESERVE!

I honestly love your version of Maid Marian as a Lioness much better than the Actual Maid Marian we got. I personally think she should have been a Lioness since she's Richard and John's Niece. Makes me question tho, why the hell couldn't we get a Lioness Maid Marian if she's like a blood relative to Prince John???
If she was a lioness, she would have been bigger than Robin. And we can't have that, especially not from Disney and not from 1973 standards.
I, on the other hand, am not a coward, and I will put my gremlin hands all over her and John's designs gnehehehehe
