Walt Disney World: It's Not Just for Kids

  Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie.  I saw it when it first came out.  While I was sitting all slack-jawed and this is awesome at the movies last night, it occurred to me that it has been twenty years since I had seen it in theaters.  I still remember how excited [...]

As you know, I am a HUGE Pixar fan, and I loved the first Cars .  My blue (Versa) is named Sally, in fact*.  So, I rented (on-demanded?) Cars 2 last night.  I was a little concerned, as I’d heard many negatives about it:  that it was Pixar’s first flop**, that it had no plot, [...]

Remember back when the Muppets were a Friday Favorite?  Well, in anticipation of the new movie coming out this fall, everything’s coming up Muppets these days, and that’s an awesome thing for adult Disney fans, especially makeup/nail polish fans. A bunch of Indie bands have released Muppets: The Green Album.  What I have heard of [...]

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean (POTC) trilogy,  Pirates of the Caribbean:  On Stranger Tides, is coming out tomorrow, May 20.  I’m a pirates fan, but not an OMG Captain Jack Sparrow swoon type of girl.  As such, I do not know [...]

It was ok.  There were definitely some funny parts (and some adult-fan extras I’ll get to), but I’d say it’s RedBox-worthy. Some plot points squicked me a little (both the adult with whom I saw the movie and myself were bugged that Carlos the Underling has a Spanish accent, although TVTropes points out that it [...]

While on my cruise, I had a chance to see Tangled.  I’d first heard of Tangled way back when it was Rapunzel Unbraided.  I heard it described as a “Shrek” like story.  Now, I like Shrek, but I didn’t really see the point in Disney doing a “Shrek” esque story. I then heard about the [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a daughter of the Disney Decade.  Know what else that means I’m a daughter of?  The direct-to-dvd sequel/movie phenomena of Disney.  Now, while these aren’t all bad (Disney’s Beauty and the Beast – The Enchanted Christmas gives me warn fuzzies every time), admit it, there were a lot which were [...]

Woohoo! This post is part of the sixth Disney Blog Carnival! I should probably begin this review with a disclaimer-I was 11 when Toy Story came out. I justified going by saying that I only wanted see it owing to the fact that it was the first computer-animated movie. (ok the part of that makes [...]

And it was good but not great-Shrek 1 and 2 just have a spark that 3, the Christmas Special and four lack.  Honestly, where as the early Shrek franchise loved on cliches and made them fresh, this movie makes you feel like you’ve seen it a gazillion times before. I personally think that Shrek: Forever [...]
