211: Lady & The Tramp




Yes, I sang along with this movie. Siamese cat song, Bella Notte, the pound howling, 'He's A Tramp', la da doo and even mouthed along to some of the words they said. I grew up on this movie and I haven't seen it for a long time. Watching it now that I am older, I know more things like when they take the hyper dog shadow to the keep out room in the pound...he wouldn't be coming back and the dogs knew that and said as much to Lady. Disney is good at taking topics that adults understand and just floating them right under kids noses. Also they had one person voice multiple people in this movie, as well as lots of voices I recognized from Alice in Wonderland, Sleeping Beauty--I'm looking at you blue fairy now voicing Lady--Peter Pan...they recycled so many voice actors during this time period of certain Disney movies. Nowadays they mix it up, well at least a bit. I know that Alan Tudyk gets around, but that is Alan Tudyk. That man has a lot of voices he can do.

If I wasn't watching this movie, which to be honest I didn't watch it as much as Little Mermaid and Great Mouse Detective, I was listening to the record and singing along with my mom. I still have that record and we still sing the Siamese cat song. Speaking of cat, my cat Penny loved it! I don't know if I mentioned it but my cat started to love watching movies with us since Finding Nemo on this movie goal, now she sits down with us every time and watching things play out on screen. I have pictures to prove it, the little white paws on the carpet are her. She is trying to get closer to the dog on the screen.






Cute huh? 💕💗💖😻 Without going on and on about my cat, I will just say that I think I will be trying to watch this more and more. It is such a cute movie and man I didn't realize just how much my dog takes after the Scottie side of her, they really nailed the Scottie personality and sass. I remember I really wanted a Cocker Spaniel so bad when I was little because of this movie. Sorry Lady, but I am too much of a cat mom. Not saying I don't like dogs, because I do like them, I just have always loved cats more. Maybe not the ones in this movie, I could go without THOSE stinkers. Ha, ha.

397-461 The End

Image
Last and final mass movie post! I finally did it guys/gals, I completed my movie goal today!!!! I can't believe that I watched 461 movies in one year! I also can't believe I own that many movies! Now I did give some away and weeded some out, but I mean, seriously. This is insane and I am so proud of myself. Finally completing something that I said I would do, that is so huge. The feeling of doing something like this and going through it, I know that someone can do anything as long as you are determined. There were days that I just didn't want to watch the next movie in line, I wasn't in the mood for it and I had to just do it. I will procrastinate like no other, but I somehow forced myself. Here are the remaining movies of the goal: THAT IS IT! Can you believe it? Now the moment of truth, the picture of my movies to show you that ye

168: Hobbit - The Battle of the Five Armies

First off...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!! Now I can get into the movie. This is my 2nd time seeing this one and I forgot that two people died at the end and not just Kili. I mean I cried, I cried really hard when the Elf King told her the reason why it hurt so much was because her love for him was real. My big emotional scale through this movie was, anxiety from all the battle going on, to "come on Thorin, get your head out of your ass", to "YAY THORIN IS BACK", to back heartbreak at the death of Fili, Kili and Thorin, to glad the war was over and Bilbo could go home...of course only to find out his personal effects were being auctioned off. I mean I know there is a lot of CGI in this movie and this one is my least favorite, but not because of that reasoning that is so many others'. I think it is because now they have to defend what they quested for and a lot of death. I mean you can't have a happy ending without fighting for it, but I definitely prefe

327: Riddick

Back to basics. To the animal side. The Furian side. Let's be honest here, the dog stole the show. We all want Riddick's dog, that one, not his brother or his sister, that dog. Now that that is cleared up, I do like that they went back to the rated R that this movie is and deserves. Yeah I do love the Chronicles of Riddick movie, a lot and it is my favorite, but there is something lacking. With this you also get the whole survival of the fittest, lone wolf, in the middle of nowhere man trying to find his home and who he is again. It also wouldn't be Riddick without throwing it back to the Pitch Black days. Aliens that come out in the cover of darkness or in this case, rain. Then you also get the father of the man who was being a douchebag in Pitch Black. You know, the one that wanted to kill the girl to save his own skin? Yeah that one. Glad to know that his father is a better man than he was, but kind of sad to watch him find out the horrible thing about his son.
