shamanicshaymin01. What is your favourite Disney movie? Why?
The Hunchback of Notre Dame, hands down. It was the darkest of the Disney movies while still having its hopes and dreams for the future, had beautiful animation and an amazing soundtrack, a chilling villain and a wonderful cast. (Hey, I could tolerate the gargoyles. XD)
Runner's Up: The Emperor's New Groove, Beauty and the Beast, The Great Mouse Detective, Hercules, Aladdin, The Little Mermaid. The 90s were a yummy time of year.
Pixar: WALL-E FUCK YEAH. Followed by The Incredibles, oh yeah. 8)
02. What is your favourite moment or scene in your favourite Disney movie?
Kronk talking to the squirrels in Emperor's New Groove! The "Something There" sequence of Beauty and the Beast! The fight in and outside the Big Ben in Great Mouse Detective! The revolt against Frollo before Notre Dame/the climax and the Hellfire sequence! Hercules diving for Meg's soul in the Underworld! Defining dancing in WALL-E! Go away, I have too many.
03. What is your least favourite Disney movie? Why?
The Black Caldron can die a horrible fucking death, simply because everybody but Eilonwy annoyed the everliving fuck out of me. Especially that damned green goblin, I hated his fucking guts so much.
Dumbo and A Bug's Life also go to hell, simply for breaking my heart and there's only so much I can stand watching films about teasing/ridicule/everybody hating you simply because you're different while everybody else sits and watches it happen before I start getting violent and going on a Carrie White spree.
Cinderella for a pinch of the above and that I thought it was dull. Has its moments, but my brain is forever cemented on 5-year-old Puri running screaming out of the room crying when the stepsisters I ripping Cinderelly's dress apart while the Stepmother watches with a wicked grin.
04. What is your favourite Disney sequel? Why?
Toy Story 2! The plot was even better than the original, the cast was more colorful while giving old friends lots of spotlight that freshens them up and seem more alive than before, "You've Got a Friend in Me" came back in a kickass rendition by Squeaker, "When She Loved Me" is absolutely heart-wrenching, and the bloopers! It can be seen as a standalone too, which is awesome by itself.
Runner's Up would be Lion King 2: Simba's Pride and Aladdin: King of Thieves. The latter had Aladdin's fucking father, who's badass by himself. *______*
05. What is your least favourite Disney sequel? Why?
Pocahontas 2. Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew. I'm still scrubbing my brain from that. It was just stupid, okay? :/ Return of Jafar is another mention, mainly 'cause the Genie sounded like he had a cold and the plot/animation was crummy and the thief was annoying as hell. Stick with Homer Simpson, John Castenella. :/
06. What was the first Disney movie you ever saw?
The Jungle Book! It's the earliest memory I ever had, crawling out of a bunk bed, going upstairs to find Mom and there was Kaa hynotizing Mowgli on the screen. :o
07. What was the last Disney movie you saw? Did you enjoy it?
My Dad and I were watching the Director's Commentary on WALL-E, but we didn't get to finish. We liked what we heard so far though, and we liked the BURN-E special. :)
08. What was the last Disney movie you saw in a theatre? Did you enjoy it?
UP. "He is my prisoner! He is my prisoner! Would you be my prisoner?" I'd say yes. XD
09. What is your favourite Disney song? Why?
"Hellfire," hands down. 'Cause you are NEVER going to get a song about forbidden sexual lust sung by Tony Jay ever again. *___________*
10. Who is your favourite Disney character? Why?
...Um. I'm going to take the easy way out and say Belle, because she's my idol. I relate with her best out of the Disney heroines, she's a dreamer while chasing what she wants, PWNs egotists like Gaston and loves people for the person they are inside, aka Beast. ;; Giselle because she has my name and I'm biased like that, she wears gorgeous dresses and has a nice balance between bubbly-head-in-the-clouds and questioning-and-curious-realist.
Pixar-wise, everybody in WALL-E. ;; And Dory and Gill from Finding Nemo. Dug from UP too! Dory and Dug are so stupid and cheery and make me laugh and smile, and Gill is just hardcore while having a soft side and apologizing to Nemo when he put the little guy's life at risk.
11. Who is your least favourite Disney character? Why?
That obnoxious sexist minister from Mulan, he makes me sick and he has no redeeming quality whatsoever. Anyone in the Annoying Little Boy catagory: Pinocchio, Mowgli, Taran, etc. that makes me wish they got eaten in the goriest way possible. Clayton because he's a douche. I believe I mentioned Black Cauldron, so I'll bring up P.T. Flea and the entirety of Flik's ant colony except Dot and the Queen. PT's just annoying, and I see no redeeming quality in Atta and the other shallow ants, so it baffles me why Flik wants to save them in the first place.
12. Who is your favourite Disney princess? Why?
As I mentioned, Belle and Giselle~ ♥ Though I think it would also be a good time to bring up Jasmine, 'cause she was badass. And Alice, because she counts. Puri likes me some Alice~ <333
13. Who is your least favourite Disney princess? Why?
I'd say Cinderella, but nobody deserves to have their dress ripped to pieces. So Snow White, mainly because her voice cracks windows and she's not smart enough to recognize that an old hag cackling at the thought of her living alone AND prompting her
14. Who is your favourite Disney prince? Why?
Prince Philip and Erik! *______* Philip because he's the first to be developed, and Erik is taking it a step further and beyond. *_____________________* God, I'd let either of them sweep me off my feet anyday!
15. Who is your favourite Disney villain? Why?
Comedy-wise, Yzma ("Is THAT my voice?") and Prince John ("MOOOOOOOOOOOMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!"). Classic-wise, Jafar and Scar. Underdog-wise, Percival McCleach 'cause for a Disney villain, he was fucking intelligent. But for all-rounders, I think I'll say Hades and Ratigan. Hades can be hilarious while being clever and intimidating, and Ratigan... VINCENT FUCKING PRICE, what can I say? Runner's Up, Zira was also badass from what I remember of her.
16. Who is the most frightening Disney villain? Why?
I saved Maleficent for this. *nod* She was definitely the most evil AND she turned into a dragon! *____* The Devil from Night on Bald Mountain, dear god. I remember as a kid finally gathering up the courage to watch it in full to the credits and being so proud of myself afterwards. XDDD;;;
And Cruella DeVil. Geez Louise, calm down, lady. D: Geez, and Lady Tremaine was a motherfucking bitch. D:
17. Who is your favourite Disney sidekick? Why?
Mushu, 'cause he's a silly dragon and one of the very few redeeming parts Eddie Murphy's ever had. :P I believe Dug's got him trounced though, 'cause EEEEEEE DUG. Dug reminds me of my doggie Freddie~~~~ ♥ Dory if she counts, though I usually go for the non-talking sidekick myself; Meeko, Flit and Percy from Pocahontas fit the bill because of their expressions and how much closer they are to real-life animals than if they talked. :o Johanna from Rescuers Down Under is hilarious; she's different and it's not often you recieve partners like her. XD
M-O probably wouldn't like being called a sidekick. *giggle*
18. Who is your favourite Disney heroine? Why?
I already told you! D: Fine, Mulan, I loved her. She saved China at the risk of the entire country turning her back on her, and China is HUGE. Alice because she has this ability to make me smile when I see her, Esmeralda because she's caring and gorgeous and a rebel, and Pocahontas stopped a fucking war. :o
19. Who is your least favourite Disney heroine? Why?
Atta wasn't a heroine so much as a simpering headless chicken.
20. Who is your favourite Disney hero? Why?
Aladdin! He's the most realistic of the Disney heroes for me, and hits all the right spots without being too whiny or invincible, is a total sweetheart and thinks of others before himself, and he's just the fun kind of guy I absolutely love rooting for. :)
Annnnnnnnnnnd Basil because he's snarky and badass and plays the violin when he's emo. XD And I almost forgot Jake from Rescuers Down Under, haha.
21. Who is your least favourite Disney hero? Why?
Simba. I hate him. XD *KEEL'D OVER* I don't mind him as a cub... until after Mufasa died. He spends the rest of his entire damn existence mooning over the death of his father (despite having watched his own uncle push Mufasa off the cliff), and JUST when you think he's ready to rule as king as was proving himself as an individual than a Mufasa clone in the sequel, he banishes Kovu on false charges, mainly guided by prejudice that he was Scar's descendence, and SCAR KILLED MY FATHER OH NOES!!11!1 "It's what my father would have done," my ass. "You'll NEVER be Mufasa!" is right. No, I don't care if he apologized at the end. The damage has been done. :P
22. Who makes up your favourite Disney romantic couple? Why?
Belle/Beast and WALL-E/EVE. Belle/Beast set up a staple for a lot of my OTPs in that love should come from within, and WALL-E/EVE makes me gooey inside and hits all the right spots, complete with fluff and tragedy and both of them working together to make the relationship work while not losing their brains to love and remain individuals. Because of that, their love saved Earth and all those aboard the Axiom. ;____;
22. Who makes up your least favorite Disney romantic couple? Why?
Charming/Snow White, Charming/Cinderella and Flik/Atta, because they're boring and superficial. Though I heard in the 3rd Cinderella sequel that Charming actually breaks through a window on the top story just to catch and save Cindie from a ship. I wouldn't know though, I don't care enough about Cinderella. XDDDD;;
Eh, I suppose Kovu/Kiara, I can't say I cared about them much. XDDD;;; Fandom-wise, burn Syndrome/Violet with fire. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuurn. DDDDD:
23. Who is your favourite non-human Disney character? Why?
I thought I mentioned this. @.@;;; Okay, fine. *makes bizarre wave motion* WAAAAAAALL-EEEE. Because he's so damn cute and I love him. ;;
24. Who's your favourite of the "fab five?" (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy)
Donald & Goofy, I blame Kingdom Hearts. But if I had to choose one, Donald. He's fun~
25. Who's cooler, Minnie or Daisy?
Daisy. I can't say I care for Minnie much. XDD;;;
I've been lazy with GPX+, so these are just for pageviews. XD
