More Thoughts on Tangled...

So, I just realized that Flynn's plan the entire time was to get chased by the guards (at the beginning). His plan was to betray the Stabbington Brothers so he could make off with the crown. Why else would he have commented on the guard's sneeze? Notice, he says "Ahhh, alone at last" when he gets inside Rapunzel's tower. That is how much of a bad guy he was... At the beginning of the movie he is a debase, self-serving, selfish rogue but at the end, he comes to understand that life isn't about himself. His realization culminates in him sacrificing his own so that #Rapunzel can live hers free of bondage under Mother Gothel. See? #Disney shows us that no one is too far gone. Is it as good of an example as King Manasseh or the Apostle Paul? Absolutely not. But I think it's a good example.
