Weekly Movie Night(s)

[Californian Elitist]

Well remember you can still join, interact, and not turn on the video, services like Zoom and Skype allow that. My company uses Zoom for web conferencing, so I'm familiar with it.

True! I forgot about that factor.

As long as any of the Pirates movies are on the potential screening list, I'm there.

Also Aladdin or Mary Poppins would be great.

The Little Mermaid is not one of my favorites.

Little Mermaid is a far weaker film than Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Aladdin.

It's iconic, and deserves all the respect it gets- and I far prefer it to anything Disney's put out post Lion King but it's definitely not my favorite.

 

[THE 1HAPPY HAUNT]

I know I am not everyone's favorite person here. And I have scwabbled with a few of you once or twice. And I am not the first to usually volunteer for anything ever. But this sounds fun and important and postive and uplifiting in these sad and dark times. I am in if you will have me. And promise to have actual conversations about the films watched and be less confrontational with others than I have been and seldom mention my beloveded ramp. So can I be in the club?

See, I adore The Little Mermaid. The songs are among the best of any Disney film.

You don’t need our permission to watch the movies.

I will add it to the lineup.

I will add it to the lineup.

No need to do that if people aren't interested. I just had to stand up for one of my faves!

It’s no problem! To clarify, I do like The Little Mermaid, I just wouldn’t put it in my top 10. I watched it just a few months ago actually.

 

[No Name]

Sounds delightful.

If I had to choose, I'd love to get Hunchback in the mix. I haven't seen it in years. Will it hold up?

I've never seen Hunchback. Or Pocahontas. Or Princess and the Frog.

I've never seen Hunchback. Or Pocahontas. Or Princess and the Frog.

This hurts my brain as a child of the 90s, haha.

Truth be told none of those movies are perfect, but all are worth seeing.

I'm down for Hunchback. A fascinating, and flawed picture, to be sure, but the best of that movie is among the best of the Disney Renaissance.

Also. color me shocked that no one here has suggested Beauty in the Beast! By far my favorite movie the Disney company has made during my lifetime!

 

[PiratesMansion]

While I'm here, Disney movies that deserve more love and should maybe be added to the watchlist:
-Rescuers Down Under
-Three Caballeros
-Lady & the Tramp
-Tarzan

 

[Californian Elitist]

Lots of movies being mentioned! I love it.

Maybe we should include Sundays as well, so three movies each week.

 

[Californian Elitist]

By the way, I will post the schedule on my original post so people don’t have to go looking for it.

Hunchback is great! A little darker than most other Disney movies. Love the soundtrack too. Princess and the Frog is good too. Left me with a good feeling but I’ve only seen it once. Pocahontas isn’t bad, I liked it as a kid but thought it was just OK when I saw it again as an adult for the first time a few years ago.

You might as well put Cinderella on the list. Not for me but for other people who may want to watch it.
