Eh, I think she's wrong. For one, I don't think getting your hair done up all pretty and dancing around in a gorgeous is a sign of being grown up and boring, and considering the very end of the movie had her dancing around the apartment like a gleeful crazy person, I don't see how it showed that she gave up her magical Disney princess-ness.
Also, the movie pretty clearly showed that Giselle wanted to become more, hmm, three dimensional? She liked the "real world," so staying here wasn't a hardship or anything! She didn't just stay for Robert. Edward, on the other hand, hated it and felt awkward and out of place, so he went back. Everyone was happy!
I think the premise of the movie was more like DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY. For some, it's cartoon land, for others, it's New York land! The fairy tale option isn't right for everyone--Robert would have hated it so much--and neither is the other thing.
... I think you are the only person that causes me to do this.
