Went to see Moana yesterday! And it was gorgeous, really stunning animation and beautiful songs - quite different from the usual Disney song style; more epic maybe? I'm not sure how to define it, but it was a lot of fun, very epic sounding, quite appropriate to a magically intrepid ocean voyage ( Read more... )

I went to see Zootopia, and you guys, it's totally awesome and you should totally see it, I had a wonderful time. The plot is not the best - it has the problem I have with a lot of movie mystery plots, which is that the clues basically fall in the heroes' laps, because the running time is simply too short for anything else. I loved the characters, ( Read more... )

I saw Maleficent! Holy uncanny valley, Batman, if they were going to use that much CGI I don’t know why they didn’t just go ahead and get rid of the live action component ( Read more... )

This Winter Soldier/Frozen fusion doodle is really kind of perfect.

lycoris asked: Your favourite Disney film in childhood and do you still feel the same about it now?

Either Cinderella or Fantasia, although I only liked select parts of each. In Cinderella, I was all about the mice. In fact, we usually never got to the ball: once the mice put together their dress for Cinderella, the movie was over as far as I was ( Read more... )

You guys you guys! I just saw Frozen in the theater and IT IS AMAZING. I mean, everything about it is amazing, except the annoying comic relief snowman, but WHAT CAN YOU DO. I have hated Disney comic relief characters ever since Mushu, clearly there is no pleasing me in this regard ( Read more... )

As part of my quest to watch all the Disney movies, I watched The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh yesterday, which left little impression aside from my sudden strong sympathy with Rabbit. I never cared much for Rabbit as a kid - Rabbit is a fussbudget - but watching it now, Rabbit has spent months working on his garden and he’s just bringing it ( Read more... )

There’s a new Disney princess movie coming out in November. Thus my Disneyriffic friends have been linking Disney fanart, and I have been sucked into the glorious world of Disney princess fanart!

My gateway drug: Costume Swap, which is pictures of the princesses dressed up in their prince’s clothes. I particularly like Belle, who looks so gallant ( Read more... )

After watching Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame, my friends and I - wont as we are to take any opportunity to discuss terrible things that one could do to classic literature - fell into conversation about the worst possible classic novel that Disney could possibly choose to adapt into a children’s movie.

“Anna Karenina!” I suggested ( Read more... )

I read Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame on the camping trip (and thankfully did not drop it into the water until I was almost done. Go me!), and yesterday watched the Disney Hunchback, which incidentally is available on Netflix streaming now.

I am slightly less flummoxed as to why Disney picked Notre Dame to make into a movie now. Some ( Read more... )
