The idea for a story is good, just executed badly. The animation, no matter what people say, isn't even close to the original's ground-breaking animation. The acting is medicore at best..

Of course this is just my opinion. Some claim this tops the original. I doubt most will think the same way...

I guess that's why they're selling Mulan higher than $17.00 here.
I think I'll give this a shot...man, I really like Mulan! I'll see if I agree or disagree with you after I watch it.

I thought Mulan II was worth a rent. Definitely one of the better dreck-to-videos.

Anyhoo, I just finished watching The Emperor's New Groove with the audio commentary and I nearly fell asleep. It's so boring! It was highly informative and whatnot but it just wasn't fun like Beauty and the Beast's commentary was fun. The people just didn't seem as comfortable with each other and that took away from it.

hi:

pocahontas

I just finished watching select shorts from Mickey Mouse In Living Colour Volume 2. These were:
Mickey's Delayed Date
Mr. Mouse Takes A Trip
Mickey And The Seal

Symphony Hour

I never saw your post until now. I bought it. I couldn't help it since it was Mulan! I won't be able to hold back for the Brother Bear sequel either.

I'm sure I'll enjoy Mulan II... I really hope. I doubt I'll fully hate it and if I don't like at all I'll sell it off to someone.

You were the one that bought Mulan II for $24, right (is that in Canadian currency or U.S. currency? I'm really not sure about the conversion rate at the moment )? For that price I really hope you do enjoy it.

I saw Beauty and the Beast with the audio commentary. The Emperor's New Groove's rather sleep-inducing commentary made me want to stick in something a bit more lively (er, in the player, I mean).

Yup that's the Canadian price and it's the average price for a new Disney animated movie here. I hope I enjoy it too. I'll probably watch it in a day or two.

Home on the Range

stil....

PS

I'll give it another try with my friends to see if they like it.

I just watched Toy Story for the first time. I can't believe I've never seen these movies until now.

Toy Story is HILARIOUS, and a very cute story. I've got Toy Story 2, and the third disc of Bonus Features to watch. I probably won't be able to watch them for a couple of days, and I can't wait!

The Black Cauldron on the Disney Channel for the first time ever (the p&s version though).

I can see why it never took off.

Just started into my new set Mickey Mouse In Living Colour!

In regards to Black Cauldron, I think that it is an acquired taste in movies. I myself remember liking it, although I haven't seen it in a few years now. Hmmmm... I'll have to add that to my list of Reading Week viewing material

Pirates of the Caribbean (first time seeing my own copy instea dof someone elses)



Speaking of The Black Cauldron... I really like that movie. It could have been better of course but I grew up with it and I guess that's partly why I like it so much. Same goes for The Fox and the Hound. Both great movies that most fans seem to put to the side... but not me!

Mulan II --> a charming sequel
Brother Bear --> one of my favs
Lilo and Stitch --> BEST DISNEY MOVIE OF ALL TIME
The Lion King --> ANOTHER FAV!!!!!!!!!

Mulan... 3 times!!!

...just the movie, in Mandarin and with the comentary.

I enjoyed it much more than I expected/remembered.

Can't wait to watch it again tomorrow and look at the extras.

i just watched bambi.....sad but good

Mulan -- One of my favorites
Brother Bear -- Love the music and the story
Home on the Range -- More entertaining every time I watch it. This one has really grown on me.
The Absent Minded Professor -- Nice to watch a b&w film occasionally. Fred MacMurray was one of the best!

In going through Disc 2 of my recently purchased "Micky Mouse in Living Colour Vol. 2", I watched:

Mickey's Christmas Carol
The Prince and the Pauper
Runaway Brain

It was definately the first time I'd seen the first two, but I believe I may have seen the '95 short at some point in the past. I'm somewhat suprised I'd never seen the Christmas Carol, as I'd imagine it's been aired frequently during Christmas over the years. They were all highly enjoyable nonetheless, Christmas Carol probably holding special appeal for me as it orginated the same year I was born.

Beautiful movie ain't it? I've already seen it about a dozen times in one month. I'm taking a break from it so it'll stay fresh and appealing!

As I tried to say: I LOVE IT!; one of my favorites movies now... I think I'd buy it un blu-ray.
