^^^ That's a little reference to something....
Well, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Deviantart and fellow followers of this random Journal (which I still wanna change my name). So how was everybody's Christmas? Mine was ok...went to Chicago for it. I got a Snuggie now!!! I just love saying I own a Snuggie. I might get addicted to it though...so what's the number for the local Snuggie addiction? I also ended up watching A Christmas Story like 7 times in one day. Damn whatever person/channel decided to show ONE Christmas movie over and over and over and over again...
What I don't get is that there's tons of Christmas movies (It's A Wonderful Life, Miracle On 34th Street, Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, etc.) but they decide to show one movie over and over again on a 24 hour loop. It's all good since I found A Flinstone's Christmas Carol on (never seen it before), and Mickey Mouse's Christmas Carol, and Looney Tunes Christmas Carol.
Disney On Ice was fun. The first act was pretty amazing. The only thing I hated was that Mickey and Minnie are "just friends" after "dating" for 50 or 100 years....you would think they would of tied the knot by now and have children and grand children and great grand children. But nope, according to Disney On Ice they are "just friends." And the first act had a bunch of Disney couples like Pocahontas and John Smith, Cinderella and Prince Charming, Snow White and Prince Charming, and Ariel and Erik. They didn't have Sleeping Beauty though...her movie is possibly my favoritest Disney movie and Malificent is my favorite Disney villain ever. But Urusla does die in the most tragic way I think...stabbed through the gut via ship.
During Beauty And The Beast when Beast is doing his dying business on the castle, Belle is there crying and a spotlight is on her while the Beast is in darkness. In the corner of the rink is the Rose and there was a light on that. It was really cool.
And throughout the first act me and several other people I went with (I went with the Madrigals, a group of higher up singers in high school) were enjoying all the old Disney movie stuff.
The second act to Disney On Ice sort of sucked. They had The Incredibles and all they did was show the Incredibles family skating and talking about their suits and powers. That's it. Pinochio was in the second act as well. It was ok as well...Monstro (the big whale) looked amazing. He comes out of the center doors and he was massive. Also during Pinochio's scene at the beginning with the Blue Fairy skating around. This little girl asked her mom who was skating...it was sort of sad...kids need to see the old Disney movies...
Yay!!! Done with Christmas shopping!!! Just shopped for a select group of people...didn't want to go overboarding buying stuff...sort of...haha. I wrapped some of my friend's presents in interesting things. One set of presents is in Chinese newspaper I got at the hotel we stayed at. And another is a map from some place. I get to give my friends their presents Thursday!!! We were going to do a whole New Year's Eve party but we decided on the day before.
I saw Avatar with a couple of people. It was an ok movie. I have a bag of mixed feelings about it. I'm leaning more towards the don't like it/it was ok side. There was just something about it I didn't like. Like why did that Doctor take in those two guys when there were a bunch of other people there? Could it just have been they were chosen for the Avatar bodies? Everytime I think of the Avatar movie I can't help of think of Avatar The Last Air Bender.
The next movie I really wanna see is The Princess And The Frog since it's like the first hand drawn Disney movie since Home On The Range. Sure, Enchanted had hand drawn stuff but this is a whole hand drawn movie (I think it's hand drawn). At least Disney is finally being smart and going back to their roots.
