Disney Animation

The world is going to hell. My country is overrun with monsters. We’re pulling families apart. We in the resistance are doing what we can, but we need to do more.

BUT, this not about that. This is about trying to distract ourselves from those horrors if only for a few hours at a time. This is about trying to find a little piece of joy in childhood remembrances.

Because self-care if VERY important.

That’s why my girlfriend and I decided to watch every single Disney animated (and some animated/live-action) feature in order of release. And, at the risk of turning my site into a Disney Appreciation Society, I’m going to review all of them. At least a few lines for each one. (I also really need new content to replace the old content. And I need some Amazon Associates points because they’re about to kick me off the program for only having two entries and no purchases.)

Now, I’m starting this WELL into the project. As I’m starting to write the reviews, we’re actually in the 70s. I’m going to try to catch up while I’m on vacation and we can’t speed through anymore. Then I’ll be able to do it as we go.

So…here we go!

PS – This list is pretty fluid. I retain the right to add or delete movies as we go. Because…my god, there are a lot of movies. That and Disney has its fingers in so many pies that it’s sometimes hard to figure out what counts. Roger Rabbit? Nah. Nightmare Before Christmas? Nope. The Heffalump Movie? Well…maybe.
