@Seaswirl,

Frozen and, to a lesser extent Tangled. Both have primary female protagonists that, on several occasions, have to rescue themselves. Their romantic entanglement is of help and, although occasionally comedically inept, is of genuine help in places.

Of course, the prototype (although technically invalid as Disney bought the property after the films were made) is Princess Leia. Not only is she a damsel in distress but, once freed from her cell and given a gun) does quite a bit towards rescuing herself. Then, in the two sequels, goes on to rescue her Edgy Scoundrel romantic interest at least twice.
