Poor Flounder

Haha, I get it

Tee hee

I don't know about y'all, but I'm curious to see how the live-action Little Mermaid movie will differ from its source material. It seems like every Disney live-action remake tries to comment on the movie it's based on, primarily trying to make it more feminist. The remakes of Beauty and the Beast , Aladdin , The Lion King , and Mulan all tried to amp up the feminism in their movies, almost trying to apologize for the allegedly inadequate “girl power” in the original films. I found this weird be…

Believe it or not, there are some fairy tales that Disney has yet to adapt into movies! The endless sources of folkloric inspiration are no small feature of the Disney brand and have been used for movies throughout the decades. I remember the buzz around Frozen when it first came out due in some part to it being based on The Snow Queen by Hans Christian Andersen. In hindsight, it's wild that it took Disney until 2010 to make a Rapunzel movie. But where to next? I have some ideas for the Walt Di…

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with Creepypastas. Many of the most famous creepypastas originated on the Something Awful forum, where people would share their craziest “true” horror stories. People tried their hardest to create the most believable and terrifying scary stories, usually starring their own original monster. The most recognizable Creepypasta protagonists include Slenderman and Jeff The Killer, but one of my favorite Creepypastas was called 'Abandoned By Disney .' In 'Abandoned By…

Disney Adults are one of the most oppressed groups in the world today. Well, not necessarily, but they do get a lot of slack for the mere crime of liking a theme park. Sure, maybe wearing mouse ears and crying when you meet Donald Duck is “cringe” by the standards of conventional society, but within the gates of Disneyland, it's

This week, ABC released promotional photos for their new version of Beauty and the Beast starring HER, and I could not be more excited. The special's cast looks so good that it might override how much I hate the Broadway version of Beauty and the Beast . Before you townsfolk get out your pitchforks and form a mob over my bad take, let me explain. As a former theatre kid , I saw more high school productions of Beauty and the Beast, the musical, than anyone should legally be allowed to be subject…

Do any of you all remember the Peter Pandom ; the massive group of Tumblr fangirls who were obsessed with the actors who played Peter Pan at Disneyland? It was one of those phenomena that, upon reflection, feels like something I hallucinated when I had the swine flu. Do y'all remember the swine flu? Those were the days. Anyways, the fandom relied on teens who would go to Disneyland for the expressed purpose of telling Peter Pan all about their mental health issues. These fangirls would film the…

When one Bob closes, another Bob opens. Last week, The Walt Disney Company revealed that Bob Iger is returning to Disney as their CEO, with Bob Chapek exiting the position after only two years. Bob Iger previously served as CEO from 2005-2020, with Chapek only serving for two years as CEO. Disney fans seem to be quite optimistic about Iger's return, especially regarding the Disney theme parks. The implementation of Disney Genie and costly fast passes have not fared well with fans, many of whom…

Let's be honest: Disney theme parks are literally the best theme parks in the world, and it's not even close. I know that Disney fans have dealt with many issues since the parks reopened. The mouse is really trying to get every dollar you've got and then some. They're even making park guests pay for Fast Passes now! What is this? Six Flags? While some regular park visitors might disagree, as somebody who loves theme parks generally but hasn't been to Disney in 5 years, no other parks compare. D…

When I was a little kid, I was vehemently anti-princess . I don't remember my exact thought process from when I was three years old, but I know I did not like them. There is an iconic childhood photo of me from "Princess Day" at preschool, wearing a collegiate sweatshirt and looking downright angry. I was not having it. Although the princess and I community started off on the wrong foot, I started to like princess movies more as I got older. By the time I was ten, I was a proud Cinderella stan,…

This is Halloween! This is Halloween! Pumpkins scream in the dead of night. This is Halloween, everybody make a scene. Trick or treat 'til the neighbors gonna die of fright. It's our town, everybody scream in this town of Halloween! Disney always does Halloween right. The next time I go to Disney World, I want to go during the Halloween season. There are a bunch of cute seasonal additions to the park, and unlike Christmas, there are not 100,000 people in the parks. Even if you take the theme pa…

OMW to Blockbuster

Quite frankly, it seems like this woman had really low expectations for every frozen meal and was happy and surprised at the quality of each item. It looks like the top favorites were all the Indian dishes and the curries, where as the least favorites were the Asian dishes. These ranking videos are actually insanely helpful for your next trip to the grocery store and her reviews are thorough enough that it'll save you the trouble of trying some frozen disaster of a meal. If you like low-stress…

Kids are built different. Not just in terms of size. Their brains are uninhibited in a way that makes for increased creativity, sweetness, and, of course, humor. While their unintentionally funny moments are our favorites, sometimes, when prompted, they can really bring the gold. Twitter user George Pointon , who admits in his bio that he exploits children for likes, asked a group of six-year-olds to pitch him some new film ideas. They came through in a way that should make Hollywood feel asham…
