Rapunzel/YMMV


 * Alternative Character Interpretation: The witch is sometimes portrayed as not so much being maliciously evil, but instead incredibly over protective of Rapunzel.
 * Her motivation varies with each version, in some versions, she wants the girl as a servant or an apprentice, in others it is implied that she believes the girl to be equal payment to her stolen herbs (the fact that she names the girl after said herbs helps this notion.) In others, the witch simply wants a daughter. Heck, there are versions where she intentionally creates the garden hoping it will give her the bargain.
 * One has to wonder if Rapunzel's parents would have really been much of a better alternative considering they were willing to trade her off for some veggies.
 * Germans Love David Hasselhoff: According to pollings, the story is very popular with American children, even if it rarely adapted into movies or shows.
 * Well the Disney version is up and at 'em. Maybe we need no other?
 * Nightmare Fuel: "The pretty bird is not sitting in the nest anymore, and it isn`t singing either. The cat fetched it. And now it (the cat) will scratch your eyes out!!" *throws prince into thorn bushes*.
