Highlights: I know this isn’t the most popular Disney movie, but it’s one that I really enjoy. It’s fun, it’s cute, and it’s got a decent plot line. It’s just a very likeable movie to me. Take Duchess, our main character. She is extremely easy going and always happy. She doesn’t really get super upset about things, […]
Inside Out Review
A number of other blogs that I’ve read said that Inside Out might very well be their favorite Pixar movie. And I have to say, I wasn’t disappointed. I don’t know that I would rank it as my #1 (there are so many great Pixar movies!) but it’s definitely towards the top – probably in […]
Thoughts on The Jungle Book
Highlights: Overall it’s a cute Disney movie, I liked it, but it’s not one of my favorites. There are some fun characters, like Baloo and King Louie, and two really great songs. I haven’t actually read the stories by Rudyard Kipling, but my understanding is that they are not very similar. Apparently Walt Disney told everyone […]
Thoughts on The Sword in the Stone
Highlights: I’m really into Arthurian legend (my cat is named Merlin), so I have a soft spot for the Sword in the Stone. It’s a cute movie, and stays very close to the book it’s based on, “The Once and Future King.” Merlin is a great character. His whimsy and fun is captured perfectly, and he’s […]

Tomorrowland Review
Going into this movie my expectations were all over the place. I hadn’t been impressed with any of the initial previews, so my hopes were low originally. Then I saw the preview at Epcot and really enjoyed it, so they went back up. Then I read the prequel book Before Tomorrowland, and found it a […]
Thoughts on 101 Dalmatians
Highlights: I may be a cat person rather than a dog person, but those little dalmatian puppies are so cute! I love that so many of them have their own personalities. Lucky is adorable: “my nose is froze. My toes are froze.” And Rolly is constantly hungry. It’s a cute, fun film with a good […]
Avengers: Age of Ultron Review
I have to admit, I’m a bit of a late comer to the whole Marvel craze. I had seen the old Spiderman movies with Tobey McGuire way back in the day, but since then I hadn’t really seen anything. My brother is really into them though, so while visiting him one weekend we decided to watch […]
And the winner of the March Madness Disney movie tournament is…
It was an epic, close race down to the end. Some people were sad to see their favorites, like Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin not make it to the final round. But ultimately we came down to The Little Mermaid vs. The Lion King. And this vote was close, with the score being tied […]
Throwing a Beauty and the Beast Birthday Party
If you ask me, you’re never too old to have a Disney themed birthday party! That’s why for my 27th birthday my husband and some friends helped me plan and attended a Beauty and the Beast birthday party. This is my third year throwing a Disney party: last year it was a Frozen party, and […]
