Jul. 21st, 2010 03:31 am30 DAYS OF DISNEY MEME!!!!!!!!!!
People need to get on board with Disney. And y'know what? People need to get off Princess and the Frog cuz Disney does DARK. Does anyone remember the beginnings of the Disney movies? Those things were freaking scary! Crazy witch asking for Snow White's heart in a box? Other scary witch conjuring "all the powers of hell" to try to kill Prince Phillip? BIG EFFING WHALE trying to eat Pinnochio? Or for that matter, turning the naughty kids into pack mules?Dumbo on LSD?!?! Getting Dumbo drunk??? Gunshot to Bambi's mom? And yeah, that was kind of a turning point when they stopped being really really dark...but still, Disney made movies with dark plots! Seriously...Disney has had some screwed up movies in the past, Princess and the Frog is not that bad... And really? For all the people who are whining about Disney not doing anymore classics?? IT'S HARD WHEN YOU'VE USED MOST OF THE FAIRYTALES YOUR MOVIES WERE BASED ON. Do they not realise this? All right...my rant is going to end there
That being said...Rapunzel? really...? I'm not feeling it...
Day #1: Your favorite character
Stitch!!! Crazy little freaky blue alien ("also cute and fluffy!") He's adorable and he makes the best stuffed animal in the world. I have two at the moment and am planning on expanding that collection further. =P Why is he my favourite? Absolutey no clue. He's insane and he's chaotic... He was created for a purpose. He started out knowing one thing, that he wanted to destroy...because that's what the mad scientist--ahem, evil genius--created him for. Experiment 626, the creature created for destruction, was put on trial and sentenced to be destroyed. But somewhere in the journey that he took, albeit trying to flee from death, he found himself lost. This journey that made him question what life was, what his life was, and realise that despite the fact that his purpose was one specific thing, that he didn't have to stick to the path that was chosen for him. He had a choice, he had desires, and he acted on those desires.
The yearning to belong, to have a family, to be part of something good. I dunno...his whole thing is just...awesome.
( Disney Meme, etc. )
And the 30 Days of Harry Potter Meme! Because I miss it...
01. Discuss how you got into Harry Potter
I can't even completely remember, to be honest. I had been playing a text-based Tolkien MUD on-line called MUME, and it was less of the role playing and more...I don't know what. But it wasn't quite what I was looking for, and someone I knew on there was here on LJ too I think, and they mentioned finding communities here on LJ that were geared toward better roleplaying. Never really thought about it after that. The first Harry Potter movie was released on my dad's birthday, 2001... After seeing the movie, it got me thinking...and I started looking for RPGs. I found one, called Oblitesco, and the rest is history. I was hooked after that. Sadly though, it wasn't until about a year or two later that I actually read the books. Don't ask me how I got through HP RPGs without reading the books cuz...somehow it happened... =P

And now I should go to bed because it's after 3:30 in the morning...
