You know, if Mother Gothel wasn't a villain she'd make a wonderful mother. I love her character. They made her niceness so believable and that adds on to the evilness of her character.

...if that makes sense.

I knooow, I thought so to until I noticed when ever she said I love you to Rapunzel that she was looking at petting her hair.... SighStill I like her character very much

It does, actually.

I'm more inclined to believe that she DID hold affection for her child, but that her ambitions took first place for her.

Haha, glad someone else saw a little nice side to her... because she reminds me of my cousin so much, apart from the fact that my cousin is a really nice person :D

I never really liked mother gothel but after reading the comments and looking at this picture, I kinda think when she was being nice she was a nice mother.

Woody and Jessie are cute together, and also 15 faces on a sausage roll is the right path to life. Enjoy your day :D

Gimme some examples. I've only looked at the songs so far and while she seems KINDA nice, she keeps insulting Rapunzel.....

I feel the same way. I can't view her as a villain really (up until the end obviously) and saw she would have been a wonderful mother for those little parts.

I agree with what you say. As a baby-sitter I can tell you, that when you get a shy kid instead of rambunctious brats who like messing with their baby sitter to sit instead, they sort of grow on you. Even if their clingy-ness make make you uncomfortable at first, you warm up to them. You just can't help it.

And if it's like that for a baby-sitter, it must be doubled effects for a surrogate mother. Despite her original intentions and desires for stealing Rapunzel away, I'm pretty sure that Gothel couldn't resist getting attached to the little girl. I mean, when you see Gothel brushing a little Rapunzel's hair and Rapunzel calls her "mommy" -- how can you say that's not a bit cute?

However, her vanity overpowered her motherly feelings in the end, and it was her undoing. I also think there was a bit of hurt in her eyes when Rapunzel said "Or should I even call you that?" But that's just my opinion. Either way, you can tell Rapunzel still cares for the woman who raised her for 18 years when Gothel falls out of the window and Rapunzel instinctively reaches for her despite being, what?, 4 feet-ish away from her.

The thing about Mother Gothel is that she was actually one of the most abusive parents in Disney history; only all of her abuse was verbal/emotional. She used fear to keep Rapunzel in the tower, and manipulated her to no end. And when you listen to the lyrics of "Mother Knows Best" and the reprise, she's constantly insulting Rapunzel and tearing down her confidence.

Technicalities aside, very nice picture.

She was worried about her then worried about her hair. It switched so often but she did love her. :3
