The Not-Your-Average Disney Tag

-
Laura tagged me for this, and I'm so flipping excited that I'm doing it immediately.  Because Disney <3

Let's get started, yes?

#1:  Favorite Disney movie of all time?
Huh-uh.  No.  Sorry, not happening.

#2:  Favorite Disney character?
Sheesh!  For some reason, I'm really blanking on the 'favorite' questions.  Perhaps because I love Disney passionately, and, especially if we're including live action Disney (which I won't be, for the most part), it's slightly impossible.

#3:  First Disney movie seen in cinemas?
Brave (2012).  I watched it with my dad and one of my brothers (I think), for my birthday:)  And just for the record, that movie is great and totally underrated.






#4:  What Disney item do you collect the most?
Uh…pictures, hehe?  Or maybe movies…  Sadly, I don't have much Disney paraphernalia.

#5:  What is your favorite Disney song?
"Colors of the Wind" ~ "The Bells of Notre Dame" ~ "Mother Knows Best (Reprise)" ~ "Learn Me Right" ~ "Farewell" ~ "Prologue"~ you get the idea…

#6:  Which Disney voice actor would you most like to meet?
Ehh, I'm not too eager to meet any of the voice actors.  Maybe the guy who voiced Pooh Bear/Powhatan/whoever else he did.

#7:  Favorite Disney movie that is not a classic?
Let's say Mulan just to spice things up:)

#8:  Flounder, Sebastian, or Scuttle?
Scuttle.  Definitely.


#9:  Saddest moment in a Disney movie?
There are plenty, of course, so I'll just mention two that really affected me.

The Princess and the Frog--RAY AND EVANGELINE AND THAT FUNERAL AND THE CLOUDS ROLLING BACK AND THEN THERE WERE TWO STARS AND I COULDN'T TAKE IT.

Nooooooooo too many beautiful pains!!!


Cinderella (2015, yes, slipping into live action for a moment)--KIT AND HIS FATHER.  I can't find a picture of that specific part, but suffice it to say I was again caught unawares and it was so bittersweet.  Guys he curled up on his father's chest and my mom and I were both sort of crying!

#10:  Which Disney princess has the best sidekicks?
Oh, wow.  All of them are great.  I think I'm gonna say Anna, though, because, if you think about it, she has Olaf, Sven, AND Kristoff.  And they're all pretty cool:D

"Cute.  The three musketeers."  (If you got that movie reference, though…)

Bonus question:  Of the lesser known Disney movies, what one would you recommend?
The Hunchback of Notre Dame, absolutely.  It is epic and amazing and glorious and I don't care if it isn't a shred like Hugo's novel.  So there.  There are so many moments in that movie that give me those delightful, tingly, thrill-induced, that-was-so-good-that-I'm-having-a-physical-reaction goosebumps.

    I love it! Your answers are awesome.

    I know! Ray and Evangeline really twisted my heart. It was so sweet/tragic. The funny thing is, my name is actually Evangeline (I just use my mum's account).

    Olaf and Sven are wonderful, hands down. They have to be two of THE cutest Disney sidekicks around. :)

    ...oh, and I enjoyed Brave. I think I only saw it once, but it was quite good if memory serves.

    I wanted to say thanks for visiting Dreaming Under the Same Moon, Olivia. Always great to meet new bloggers, and to chat with them. Thanks for the comments. :)

    We all saw Brave in theater too, and I was most surprised by that movie when I saw it. It is great, and apparently I really had no idea what it was about before I went and saw it! Funny thing, my oldest daughter was in love with Quasimodo when she was very little. Was her favorite movie for a long time. I crocheted her a Quasimodo doll that she carried around with her everywhere (that probably didn't resemble him enough for anyone to make out who he was). I am sure people around us wondered why she was toting around a red headed doll with a large hump on his back!

      Yeah, I love Brave:)

      Your daughter was in love with Quasimodo?! That us awesome. I'm proud, for some reason;) Ooh, you should post a pattern for a Quasimodo doll!!

    2. paperdollmomMay 27, 2015 at 3:00 PM

      Hmm...I made that doll a really long time ago. Probably 10 years ago? I don't remember the pattern I created, nor do I remember what I did with it! LOL. If I ever find it, I will post it. We still have the doll somewhere. I never let my girls weed out the crocheted dolls I've made for them. I will dig it out and at least post a photo for you to see it.

    Ok, I just had a huge burst of oxygen in my brain.... Ray and Evangeline are the two stars in the 'second star to the right, and straight on till morning,' line from Peter Pan!

    I saw Brave in theaters as well!

    Thanks for tagging me. :) I'll get too it hopefully soon and give you the link. :) The Hunchback is super interesting as a movie. I went into it not thinking I would care for it much but actually I thought it was okay. Nothing like the book but it's Disney so I don't care. :) I love the line "Who is the monster and who is the man"... that's a great song. :) And Hellfire is wow!

    Kit and his father. OUCH. Man, that movie makes me cry so much. But in a good way, mostly. Except that part, which is super sad.

      UGH YES. It is, in general, such a feel good (in the best way) movie, but that part hurt me. I mean, it was sweet and beautiful, but it was also so saaaaaad!

Lark Rise to Candleford, Seasons 1-4 {review}

-

Well, darlin's, here 't'is!  A review of the TV series Lark Rise to Candleford .   SO!  I finished the final season the other night, and am here to discuss my thoughts;)  (Spoilers will be sprinkled indiscriminately!  Read at your own risk;D) LRtC centers around young Laura Timmins, a girl from the wee hamlet of Lark Rise, who moves to the  more affluent town of Candleford to work in her aunt's (or was she just a cousin?) post office.  Miss Dorcas Lane is probably the wealthiest person in Candleford and holds a lot of sway with the townspeople.  With Laura's advent into Candleford, the two communities begin to be intertwined. The show's basic plots aren't my absolute favorites, but I love how relaxed the show is, and how marvelous the characters are.  (Because they just ARE.)  It's a cozy series, but at the same time there are moments of rather intense drama.   I'm not feeling extremely eloquent for reviewin...

Romeo and Juliet (2013) {review}

[Note:  Keep in mind that this review is written from the perspective of someone who has never actually read Romeo and Juliet , m'kay?:)  Also, there'll be spoilers, because, I mean…all things considered, you probably know how it all ends.] I first became seriously interested in watching this movie a) because of the utter gorgeousness of all the stills I saw on the Internet, and b) because it has Hailee Steinfeld.  I'd only seen her in True Grit (2011), but, I thought, wouldn't it be cool to see her in a completely different role? So, yesterday, I watched it.  And…I'm not quite sure what I think of it. First things first.  This movie was beautiful .  It was one of those films where you think, "I want just about this entire movie in screencaps."  The cinematography was excellent.  The lighting, the camera angles, the costumes and sets …aaaaaaahhhhh. See what I mean?? Hailee Steinfeld was absolutely precious as Juliet Capul...

My Dream Cast for a Live-Action Remake of 'The Incredibles'

Alas, no, I am aware of no immediate plans for Disney to produce a live-action version of The Incredibles .  But if such plans should ever materialize . . . have I got a cast ready for them or what. 😉 ⸻ Elastigirl / Helen Parr Emma Stone Emma would rock Helen's grit & sass like no other actress available today & I will not be accepting criticism of that statement at this time.  I would absolutely love to see her in this role.  She would crush it.  Mr. Incredible / Bob Parr Eric Allan Kramer I know he's a leetle too old now, especially as a partner for Stone, but he's the only person I've ever been able to envision as Bob.  (Except Alan Hale, Jr., but he's about six feet too old.)  So it is what it is, peeps.  Violet Parr Mackenzie Foy   I went back and forth on the casting for Violet.  I would also love to see what Millie Bobby Brown could do with the role, so it was difficult to decide.  In the end, I think Mackenzie Foy would ...
