Thanks, jen!
I love Disney, and I am not ashamed. I think they are cool. And also pretty. Though I do not love The Lion King like they do, I merely tolerate it. I wish they would get the hell over The Lion King. Although, now that I'm thinking about it, I'm not very big on any of their animal movies, though I did enjoy Robin Hood. I don't really care for Bambi, Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmations, Jungle Book, The Fox and the Hound, or The Lion King. And I've seen all of those multiple times, and none of them improve upon rewatch. I did like Tarzan, but that one is tricky to categorize, since it also has people.
I know nothing about the Green Lantern.
CNN is reporting that Disney is going to make Toy Story 3 on their own, without the involvement of Pixar.
Bet it tanks (at least, comparitively).
I'd like to see Principal Hottie as John.
I could see him.
What? You don't like
The Lion King
?? DOES YOUR WRONGNESS KNOW NO BOUNDS?!

None of them have princesses.

Sean is MY FAVORITE.

Have you seen Lady and the Tramp?
You don't like Dumbo?!? I think that might very well be one of the most brilliant works of animation, ever. It's just the right length (at 60+ minutes, there's no padded scenes), has pathos ("Baby Mine"--waaaah!), humor, and even sweetness (I love the opening scene with the stork doing his schtick). Oh, and a psychedelic scene that's 25 years ahead of its time ("Pink Elephants on Parade").
Ben's too old for Kyle, but he'd make a fucking great Hal.
What's Hal like?
(bear in mind all I know about GL I learned from JL)
Lady and the Tramp
Yes, Lady is sufficiently princessy for me. But the rest is all bleh. And I hate that, like, the only cats Disney chose to make were those horrible mean cats in that movie. I realize Mickey is a mouse, but dude. Get over it. Cats are the coolest.
Dumbo was incredibly sad, with the mom and the baby, and just mean, at times. And the Elephants on Parade business gave me nightmares for years. It still creeps me out, to this day. I don't get any pleasure out of watching that movie. Just pain and fear. Which is why I don't like it.
Also, I just got off the phone with my mom, and we've made plans to see "The Polar Express" in Imax 3-D. We're kind of looking forward to the scariness. We figure, if we're going to see it, let's see it right. This is the first time I'm actually going to see a scary movie of my own free will, which is interesting.
