I thought it was great.

Tinker Bell

I might be getting soft, but I was pleasently surprised. Not your typical "Disney is trying to make a few bucks off of an old idea". Some thought went into it, some of it was genuinely funny, and on the whole, it was pretty creativee. They even tie it in to Peter Pan.
I've actually read a lot of people like this one...maybe one day, yknow if I have a girl, I'll get 'round to watching it.
For now, "Hook" is my go to for Peter Pan movies...that said, never saw the one from just a few years back.

People Under the Stairs.

Still lots of bizarre fun.

There appears to be one of the people who's mask didn't fit very well, because in a couple of scenes you can see the back where the mask doesn't come together.

But other than that, I'm a total queen.;)

you so claaaazy !!!


ok .. the glove has been dropped.


here's why i personally think monsters inc is the best kids movie ever made.

(and let me first say that i am NOT a fan of Billy Crystal or John Goodman - to me - neither of them transitioned well to film .. i still see them as second rate TV actors - so by all rights i shouldn't like this film as much as i do)


1) the animation is gorgeous and imaginative. the monster characters are really well done. the 'doors' sequence was incredible

2) a lot of fun animation in jokes to keep the adults amused

3) the disney formula of killing a parent/sibling for easy emotional buy-in was abandoned. (see lion king/nemo/every other fucking Disney film) NOBODY HAD TO DIE !

4) the story was BRILLIANT ... wow Chrono - here we disagree the most. Maybe its because i have a kid but to me this film is the smartest, most effective, and most entertaining way of showing kids there is nothing to be afraid of in the dark i've ever seen in my lifetime. The monsters are more afraid of you than you are of them ?? brilliant !! Add some adventure thanks to a bad apple ... and i think you have a flawless story - and the resolution was fantastic as well ... both the fate of the bad guy and the new form of power. (laughter is more powerful that fear .... )
And it did it without being sucky.

5) I'm a sucker for a bittersweet ending and i hate cheesy manipulative tear jerking disney bullshit - but the way this film ends - gets me in the heart every time ... subtle and touching as hell.


honestly - its one of the few movies i feel so strong about that i cant get my head around anyone not liking that. i'm usually far more impartial than that.


but if you consider this film overrated - then you're only talking about me - because the general public really paid no mind to this film ... proving again that the lowest common denominator is always satisfied with the same hamfisted bullshit formula over and over again.

kill kids parent ... kid grows through adversity and becomes a strong man/woman. yahoo ....
