A Look Back

So here’s the thing. I usually don’t watch Disney channel. It’s stupid and dumb and I don’t like it. Frustrates me how stupid it is. But recently they actually had a pretty good idea. Sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it? Disney Channel having a good idea? It’s kind of just like a miracle happened.

So to stop the anticipation cause I know you all are just dying to know what this crazy crazy miracle is. Disney Channel finally decided to broadcast four of Disney’s old classic movies. To get specific, they showed Mulan (bleh), Hercules (pretty good), Aladdin (one of my favorites), and Tarzan (absolutely amazing!). So there you go, the crazy amazing idea Disney Channel finally decided to run with and grace us with these movies.

Mulan. Kinda funny with Eddy Murphy doing the voice of the dragon and all the racist references Disney slipped in there, but still not the best. Don’t really like the plot. Plus there’s violence and cross dressing. That’s never good for children.

Hercules. It’s always good to learn about Greek gods. They’re cool. There’s drama and love and humor and a lot of pretty colors. It’s a good one. The little baby Pegasus is my favorite.

Aladdin. So good. I really like the music in this one. It’s different and clever. Plus Robin Williams is a genius. Very good as the voice the genie. I’m extremely impressed with the things he did with the character. My favorite in this one, however, would have to be Raja, Jasmine’s tiger. I wish I had a pet tiger. That’d be so cool. I could ride him into the sunset and no one would ever mess with me ever again because I’d just send Raja to get them. If only

Tarzan. Gets me every time. This soundtrack is actually my favorite. It’s nice and sentimental and even teaches children some life lessons. I kinda wish I grew up with apes. That’d be so cool. I’d know everything about being out in the wild and dealing with animals. Plus the African jungle looks really fun to play in, like a huge jungle gym! That’s probably where they got the name! I just realized. That’s called an epiphany right there.

Now I know you’re asking yourself, “Self, she obviously really really likes these movies. I wonder if she just watched them while they were airing, because we both know she’s a busy person, or did she record them all with her DVR to save and watch multiple times in the future…hmmmmm” Now since I’m such a nice person, I have decided to help you out with the predicament you’ve gotten yourself into. Yes, I was busy at the time they showed these movies. And yes, I did record all four movies to watch multiple times in the future. It was just too good of an opportunity to pass up.
