What are you thinking RIGHT NOW?

She plays all of those? Oh, wow.

Flip - It really does. I feel very different for the better these days :3

Good.

Cup of tea, go walk the dogs and get a bit of an earlier night tonight I think. Training day tomorrow so should get a decent rest tonight I suppose, had a few late ones in a row now.

[Marizzle]

How does she do that?! This is awesome!

Woooo! HBO just released a bunch of photos from Game of Thrones season 6. That's got me so excited for April.

Why does it think Fox and the Hound 2 is a comedy? I mean... I wouldn't consider it such... why not just put it in the "Kids and Family Movies" section?

Will this episode take long to finish? Come on...

I haven't actually ever seen the second one. Quite frankly I'm not sure I want to. The original one was... I mean it is a good film but it's incredibly depressing. Like really, nothing genuinely happy happens in the entire film aside from the initial friendship they make but then it just turns into this really hard hitting story of having to grow apart from friends and choosing your own path in life even if it means letting go of your past entirely but keeping it alive in your memories only.
It's certainly true but it's presented in such a bittersweet way and the scene where the old widow abandons Tod, the only company she has had in years, I know it's an animated film but I'm convinced anyone who doesn't watch that part of the film without tearing up has all the emotional range of a teaspoon (references) because I'm the most evil man who ever lived and that scenes destroys me every time.
Needless to say I love that film but I've heard bad things about the sequel and don't want to watch it because I feel it will detract from the emotion of the original. I mean I watch it when I want a good cry and I think that if I watch the sequel I wouldn't be able to take it as seriously anymore.

Wow that was a long post, but then again I could talk about that film forever: it's in my top five Disney movies and maybe just possibly I'd put it above TLK for the number 1 spot

...

Time to walk the doggies!

^ Yeah, FatH 2 really isn't anything like the original. I mean, for a Disney animated sequel/kid's entertainment it's okay, I guess... but if you're looking for something with the emotion of the first movie then yeah, I'd stay away from it, tbh. It probably would detract from it if that's what you are going in expecting.

This is so true. I've only seen the original movie a few times, as a child, purely because of the "abandoning scene". It's just so depressing. I truly believe Fox and the Hound is one of Disney's most underrated movies.

I wouldn't say it's under rated, most people who have seen it agree it is brilliant. It's just older and hasn't really stood the test of time like other Disney classics. It mostly comes down to the soundtrack; films like say, Aladdin, those will be popular forever because the soundtrack will never really go away and by the time it does, a new generation has already heard it and watched the movie. Fox and the hound doesn't really have that going for it other than maybe one song I can think of, it's a shame really. I feel that it would do a lot better for itself if it had a better soundtrack to go with it but ultimately I wouldn't change anything in the film for the sake of making it more profitable because it's perfect as it is :3
