40cakes: (I'm So Excited)

My morning train ran incredibly late when I wanted to be at work early. My evening train ran perfectly on time, the one time I was late, despite it running perfectly late for the past, say, three weeks.

But none of that matters, because after work, I got this on DVD:


Also, a box of microwave popcorn. Eeeeeee.

EDIT: Oh fuck me, Little Mermaid THREE?! The second one didn't suck enough for you, Disney?! And the only preview you have for it is a "musical preview" that's not of an original song?

EDIT 2: Oh for crying out loud, CINDERELLA THREE?! So that time you fired all those animators, they were what, the only people with good ideas?

EDIT 3: I had forgotten how bad the animation quality was on this. Especially when compared to Beauty and the Beast, just a year later. I mean, it's not TERRIBLE, but it's like it was drawn as an especially special episode of The Gummi Bears.

EDIT 4: Oh God, I love "Poor Unfortunate Souls".

The *first* one didn't suck enough for Disney?

I'm sorry, but that's the one at which they turned pissing on classic works from a mild annoyance to an abomination.

Yeah, I loved that original ending. Seafoam is the BOMB.

Don't forget about Aladdin 7: The Revenge of That Fuckin' Monkey.

Where the monkey turns into a genie and Jafar's back and still a genie and Genie, despite no longer being a genie is still called "Genie", and Iago's a flippin' genie and Aladdin's father, Ali Baba or whoever is also a genie and for whatever reason, Aladdin and Jasmie STILL AREN'T MARRIED.

AND YOU DID NOT INVITE ME TO WATCH WHY?

I'm sure there will be plenty of time to watch it 15 more times. AND THERE'S A SECOND DISC.

Hehe, I got that today too. Ursula rocks, does she not? I got to see the rerelease at El Capitan a few weeks ago. Sat in a row of 20-somethings that all sang along. Good times.

I heart Disney villains. I'm a little sad that they don't promote that line as much anymore as Princesses and Fairies and whatever they're doing now.

I only saw it once. It wasn't until I was older that I'd see movies more than once in the theatres.

*pokes fingers together* I'm the biggest goober ever... she's still my favorite.

And they made a second one? O_O *refuses to acknowledge the VHS she owns* No, I think you're mistaken.

Exactly, the second one didn't exist, just like the third X-Men movie. :)

The Little Mermaid is my all-time fave Disney movie in spite of them Disney-ing the ending, so yeah, I'm all over this DVD.

But a third? WTF? The second wasn't bad- it wasn't good either- but it just goes to show Disney's going to milk every money cow they have. What's this one going to be about anyways? Ursula comes back from the dead (with a nice sized hole in her chest courtesy of the front end of the ship Eric rammed into her) to inhabit the body of her frozen sister and Ariel's fricking granddaughter saves the day? O_o

The only clip they had was of one of the songs, but Ariel was still a mermaid and she and Flounder were running around trying to find Sebastian or something. So maybe a prequel? I HAVE NO IDEA.

The Cinderella III is about the evil stepmother finding out about Princess Cinderella's fairy godmother and stealing her wand and bad things happen and the glass slipper smashes abut surely love will persevere or something something.

Guh. WRYYYYYYYY Disney?! That plot for Cinderella 3 sounds like bad fanfiction.
