There’s many earlier versions of that story ex: “The Frog (1908)”

But I don’t know which is being referred to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Frog_Prince

Sure. But the one titled The Princess and the Frog is 2009.

Yea, but it was a common way to describe the story before Disney titled their movie that way.

So, I wasn’t sure if they where suggesting a VHS version of that 2009 movie existed, making reference to the meme around the 2009 movie being a throwback, or just something else.
