young adult's disney

you know how most disney cartoons are like the same, especially the princesses ones. they always have a happy ending, always! for the good ones at least but i dont people in general care about the wicked ones.

no im not talking abt the new generation of pixar films, whereby they touched on human emotions that are above those targetted at kids. up, toy story 3, to name two, that have evoke such emotions. the loss of ellie and how mr fredrickson faced a life of loneliness, the toys from toy story huddle together as they are being sucked into the incinerator. i dunno about you, but i know those scenes brought tears to many's eyes.

and no, im not referring to anything by disney, not that i remember anyway, ok, maybe except princess diary. but im talking about romantic comedies. friends that know me should know i have a soft spot for romcoms. i do enjoy the fantasy (such as lotr, and harry potter), the horror, the drama but i usually kinda need to be in some sort of mood before i'll feel like watching them, but romcoms.. they are like for anytime anyday, just like any disney cartoon.

always a happy ending, a pathetic male character (such as aston kutcher), a pretty female (such as natalie portman!), they meet in the most unfortunate circumstances and somehow, they end up becoming each other's soul mate. such fairy tale plot really seem to be out of a disney script.

and so that's what i did the whole of sunday afternoon. kidnapped ashley's stash of movies, and romcoms were the first ones i picked to watch.. and disney cartoons were next. haha. im so one dimensional.
