[QUOTE=CaerieD]  
Aren’t these two entirely different stories? It looks to me that Disney is doing a version of _The Frog Princess_ , while Pratchett did a version of _The Frog Prince_. It’s not just a gender flip. They’re two distinct fairy tales.

Well, don’t I feel sillier now…

that Frog Princess wiki aricle also links to the movie page - Jazz, divas, chambermaids, I think Pterry can pack the lawyers away.
