And this still holds up as a great start to the Disney Renaissance. Memorable songs, likeable charming characters, beautiful breathtaking animation, and the best Disney villainess since Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty.

One of the better Disney animated movies.

Definitely. Which is more than I can say for that 100th anniversary movie Wish. God that movie was such a disappointment.

Yep. I'd let my kids watch it :D Even better, I could play the soundtrack in the house or the car for them to listen to.

I bet they enjoyed Poor Unfortunate Souls

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15100) 3 months ago

Why would they enjoy that song?

[–] MovieBooker94 (412) 3 months ago

Because it's a very chilling villain song

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15100) 3 months ago

It does rank pretty high on the "Best Villain Songs" list. Though usually the kiddies like stuff like "Under the Sea," "Part of Your World," "Kiss the Girl," and that one song Ariel sings when her voice is stolen.

Good to know

and did anyone get terrified of the reprisal of Poor Unfortunate Souls? Because let me tell ya, Jodi Benson's singing in that reprisal gave me chills.

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15100) 2 months ago

There was a reprisal of it? I'll have to re-watch the movie now.

Take your time and let me know.
