HAHA!!!:lol: Fooled you... fooled you all good!!!

But I must say I should clean my room up so that doesn't happen. I trip over my own crap all the time especially during the evening.

I'm sorry.

I probably shouldn't do that often in case that really does happen and nobody will help me.

Home On The Range.

I thought it was funny. It was really funny to see the three cows singing.

Peter Pan - It's been a while since I've seen this one, and it still remains one of my lesser favorites of the '50s films. Still, its score, songs, and animation are amazing, even if this rendition of the Peter Pan story (whcih I love) isn't necessarily my favorite.

Jungle Book 2: I saw this a while ago on Disney Channel and this will goes down with Stitch: The Movie and Tarzan and Jane as the worst cheapquel ever! It was a total insult to the original. The CG animation was over-done and the hand-drawn animation was bad too. The story was very weak, the songs were terrible and John Goodman and Haley Joel Osmand did weren't good voices for these characters(in my opinion). This sequel iwas very weak compared to the original(then again what else is new)! Plus they made up a completly stupid reason to get rid of King Louie(who was on of my favorite characters).

Beauty and the Beast: I decided to watch it again and it was worth it!

I just wish I had the DVD!

I just rented Pocahontas from Hollywood Video to see if I wanted to buy the 10th Anniversary edition that comes out next week. I had not seen it in YEARS. It's a decent movie, but I don't think I like it enough to buy it. Just my opinion. However, I did enjoy Meeko and Flit!

What did you not like about it? Personally, it's one of my favorite Disney movies. Tinkerbell is soooo cute!!!

I just find it a bit boring at times, largely due to a slow pace. Also, in comparison to other versions, it strays from the original play, which I love. That's not to say I don't like it, though, just that it's not one of my favorites.

The last Disney films I’ve seen since… well, since I last posted here (less than I wanted, btw)!

The Little Mermaid: Probably the film I’ve watched the most in my Disneyana life, and still among my favorite after all these years. Everything is so right about this movie, the the songs are great, the characters are among the most captivating in any Disney film, the visual style feels traditional but at the same time different (big expressive eyes on the characters, etc)… One memorable film that certainly deserves its reputation. I’m glad to have the Limited Edition DVD, even if it is lacking in picture quality (the sound is great, though) it still got the film in its original form without any touching up.

Bambi: The fact that the DVD preserves this beloved (and great) movie so well keeps me coming back to it.

The Incredibles: A bold move for Pixar, which totally moved away from its “buddy” formula from past films. And a good move that was, for this film is almost flawless, both in its story as well as technical aspects. One of the things that impressed me the most is how believable the humans look, and not like plastic figurines like other CG moves. They move naturally, they squash and stretch and aren’t overly realistic, but rather quite stylized, like any 2D animated character should be and behave. Heck, I liked the film even better on DVD than when I watched it in theaters!

Toy Story: After watching Pixar’s last, what better to watch than Pixar’s first?! Even though some scenes look kind of primitive compared to Pixar’s past efforts (even “A Bug’s Life”), the story is still as great as it was 10 years ago. It may be not one of my Pixar’s favorites (but its sequel is), but it’s a wonderful movie and a classic nonetheless.

Walt Disney Treasures: Disneyland USA: It may be the weakest of the Disney Treasures, due to censorship and weak bonus features, but it still one of my favorites. I just love the content of this set, with its sense of nostalgia (even though I wasn’t alive when these programs originally aired) and the enthusiasm Walt felt for Disneyland, which is intoxicating (in a good way, of course). My favorite of the shows are “Disneyland 10th Anniversary” and “Disneyland After Dark”.[/b]

Sleeping Beauty: Every time I watch this film I’m always owed by how perfect it looks. Everything is so carefully crafted, carefully planed: the backgrounds, the cleanup, the multiplane shots, the cinematography, the great score… it’s a perfect medieval world. And the story is also very engaging, besides what some people may say. It’s got really sympathetic characters in the Three Good Fairies and the greatest Disney villain in Maleficent, even if the protagonist is not as active as the other Disney princesses. I also love the darker elements of the story, which may be one of the main reasons I watched this film so many times when I was little. Of the three Walt Disney’s princess movies, “Sleeping Beauty” is the one with the most appeal to boys, with its great adventure scenes (that still are the most breathtaking scenes ever created for a Disney film) and a Prince who actually has a name and a personality. One of the scenes that has always been a favorite of mine is when Princess Aurora is hypnotized and led to the top of the stairs. Pure horror mixed up with Hitchcockian-like suspense. The Technirama adds a lot to this movie, making it the true Disney epic, in the vain of epics like “Ben Hur”. A shame it’s takes this long for this film to be recognized as a true classic. The DVD is also one of Disney’s best, with, among many more, one of my favorite bonus features, the short subject “Great Canyon” in wonderful 5.1 Surround (if only it was anamorphically-enhanced).

Melody Time: Finally having the unedited Australian DVD in hands, it was good to watch again one of my favorites of the late 40s Disney movies. It certainly belongs to 1940s with it use of popular music, but it is still very entertaining, with such great segments as “Once Upon a Wintertime”, “Johny Appleseed” and “Pecos Bill”. It’s also a beautiful film to look at, with some of the segments heavily inspired by the work of Mary Blair (I think this was the first Disney feature, besides “The Three Caballeros”, to really run away from the traditional Disney stile) and nice shots using the multiplane camera (which got even less use from the 50s on).

Dinosaur: I have never been part of the dinosaur craze of the early 90s, so I’ve never anticipated this film as much as others (I remember being much more excited with “Fantasia 2000” at the time), although I really liked what I had seen in the trailer. Anyway, the film was still a big disappointment, with an unremarkable story, shallow dialog and clichéd dialog (some of it seemed as it came from a self-help’s book). On its favor are the impressive animation and James Newton Horward’s uplifting score. At least the 2-disc DVD is a great edition, with wonderful picture and sound quality and meaty bonus features (great Easter Eggs, by the way).

Just watched Finding Nemo and Oliver & Company the other day.

I hadn't seen Oliver & Company since I first saw it in theaters when it came out originally. It's so cute! It did bother me though that the chiuaha (sp??) was voiced by the same guy who did one of the hyenas on Lion King. I couldn't stop thinking about it!!

Peter Pan: I think this is another great movie from Walt! It's funny and exciting for kids and adults! However the Red Man song was a bit rascist and I'm wondering why this movie is able to be veiwed by the crowd but Song Of the South can't. All these movies should be veiwed by the world.

The Rescuers
I just finished watching this for the first time on CBC. It wasn't bad but it definately needs a new release. The animation was pretty bad.

3/5

I just watched Bambi, it was the first time I've seen it since I was young.

Much better than I remember, or than I expected it to be. I enjoyed it so much that I'll be watching it again soon.
