And there was the whole creepy passive-aggressive "I'm the only one who will ever love you because everyone else will treat you shamefully and be horrible/I'm the only one who will ever love you because you're basically dog shit in human form and you're lucky you even have me to love you/anyhow, whichever, just don't ever leave!" dynamic between Rapunzel and her mother, which was depressing and scary and both a dynamic I completely recognized and not one I can remember Disney ever tackling before.
This was pretty awesome, I have to say. Really super evil.
I take your point about hair color, but I imagine a whole bunch of dolls with blonde light-up magic hair, and not any with brown non-magic hair.
Also:
Depp told the Disney executive "all my characters are gay,"
LOL. Smartass.
I love it. That's one of the funniest thing I heard all day.

I am interested in seeing the movie, but I think I want to see Company Men more. I'm not sure.
Those would be funnier if Criterion hadn't already put out and edition of (sm)Armageddon.

Comic book movie casting question: Who'd make a better Black Panther: Djimon Hounsou, Chiwetel Ejiofor, or Idris Elba? What does this mean for Luke Cage and Bishop?
Also, am I forgetting any major black Marvel male characters?

Blade, but that franchise is locked up.
As for Black Panther...huh. None of those guys are really who I would envision. He should be built like a cornerback - sort of like Wesley Snipes. But he's got to have the gravitas of a Denzel.
Chiwetel comes closest for me, but still not ideal.
I've only known the one cornerback, and I don't see any reason Djimon couldn't fake it (undie alert). What's the objection?
And gravitas? Those guys are lacking it? Idris Elba? Seriously?
