At the halfway point I've decided to throw in the towel.

The premise of this book sounds incredible, but the execution is poor. The content continuously jumps around, and the author's arguments are lacking in substance. Just when he'd be starting to prove a point, he would switch topics before making a solid argument.

I must give credit for finding such an extensive amount of fairy tale films/shows but the end result was sloppy, and dull to read. The only reason I would re-visit this book would be for the 35 page listing of all the films/shows/tv specials referenced in the book.
