Cartoon Theories

× Barbie ( pt. 2 ) ×

 The Barbie princess collection is set in a magical world of mythical creatures, fairies, queens, princesses and magic.

My theory is that the barbie movies are all somewhat connected with each other, that is that they may be residing in the same universe.

I do know that there is no way that these movies would be connected but I like to think they are and imagining the possibilities if they were.

Enjoy my theory. :)    

Let's begin with Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus and Barbie and the Diamond Castle.

These two movies introduced the existence of magic since the beginning of time.

In Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus, we see that there are winged horses living in a Cloud Kingdom with a Cloud Queen named Rayla.

It becomes apparent in the movie that Rayla has magical powers.

How she got these powers and how this magical castle in the sky came to be is still questionable.

What I concluded is that Rayla is a form of higher power in this magical world.

Much like a goddess, she protects the sky and is the creator of Cloud Kingdom and its inhabitants.

However, what became of the Cloud King is unclear.

 Now we have the diamond castle, which is said by Melody to be the birthplace of music.

The muses who live there are the creators of the castle and some music present in the world.

How does this connect to the Magic of Pegasus?

Well, the muses are seen riding on winged horses in some parts of the movie.

Where did thses horses come from?

This is the only time we see a winged horse for the second time in a different barbie movie.

Who is to say that the Cloud Queen,being a powerful deity, gave a winged horse, to other powerful deities in a familiar world?

This explains anything before the actual movies begin.

The Magic of Pegasus starts with Annika, an adventurous, rebellious princess.

Annika lives in a kingdom that seems to have snow all year round.

As I began to ponder where it is that Annika lives, I remembered that in Parthenia, the magical world where Prince Eric and Clara venture into, has a piece of land that is covered in snow.

Remember the snow cave that Clara and Nutcracker get stuck in because they accidentally fall while travelling through different dimensions?

Well, what was beyond the cave where they landed?

What did the entrance look like and where did it lead to?

Perhaps it was the other side of a kingdom close to the palace of sweets?

A nearby kingdom inhabited by a king and queen with their "only"daughter?

Yes.

This is the castle where Annika lives in at the beginning of the Magic of Pegasus.

This movie takes place before the Nutcracker begins.

In the Magic of Pegasus when Annika sneaks out of the castle to go iceskate, we see the Nutcracker (Prince Eric) in the crowd.

Why is he there?

Well, after learning that a princess can turn him back to normal, he decides to go look for her.
