Fantasias

I haven’t finished reading Walt Disney: Hollywood’s Dark Prince.

But because of that book, I watched Fantasia and Fantasia 2000. Heh. I like them. I don’t think anyone has any right to say Walt ruined those pieces. But I’m not exactly a big fan of classical music. But I still say no one can fault Walt for seeing what he saw when he heard that music.

Mommy said, while watching Fantasia 2000, that they took liberties with the animation. O_o Oh. I forgot to ask her what she meant by that. Anyway. I like them. I think they’re fun movies. I finally saw that one with the green lady-thing with butterflies. ^^;; *braindead* Nice.

Disney; Lily songs

Walt Disney is scaaary. ;-; He had a locomotive set up around his house and one time when he was getting some ideas about Disneyland (so the book says), he jumped the tracks and crashed into the living room of his house. O_< His wife was pissed. :b Then another time he … too tired to type it out.

Is smartness a gene? … I think I’ve read too many Ralph Wiggum quotes today.

“She’s touching my special area!” “My cat’s breath smells like cat food.” “I bent my wookie.” “The doctor told me I wouldn’t have so many nosebleeds if I just kept my finger out of there.”

Ever wish you could close your eyes and just curl up inside a song? These Lily Chou-Chou songs make me feel like that. It’s odd. I still love that movie. Well maybe not love. But … o_o! Yeah. I wanna see Battle Royale. Some site said there’s a Battle Royale II in production. O.o Well anyway. I guess I’d have to buy the movie. ‘Cause how many video rental stores have a modern disturbing Japanese film on their shelves?

-.- And apparently … I am not getting it. $37 minimum. Nuh-uh. I don’t care if people say AALCC is a copy. I ain’t paying that much. …

I keep picturing the people in AALCC listening to Lily. ^^;;; Woooow, niice. *sigh* Now Battle Royale is buggin’ me like heck. -_- Oi. I owe Mommy $25 for the Ai Yazawa artbook. Don’t know why I bought it. The scanner’s not good at all. Well, it’s adequate for normal scanning. But not scanning art and stuff. Yuck. Also Mommy wants a legal size scanner. XP W00t! Support my side! Um. But I know nothing about scanners.

“Ai no jikken” whatever jikken means. Experiment. Ah. O_o *ahem* Remind me to translate Lily Chou-Chou lyrics.

Pardon my … oddities, but in one song, it sounds like she sings “death like life.” ^^; I don’t have the lyrics for all 9 songs, so i don’t know.

I also want the rest of Paradise Kiss. $30. Fun.

“in, out, and on with life”

I feel dead. x_x Okay, so I have a month before the English paper is due. But I don’t know. I’ve never really done an 8 page report. ^.^ What can I say, I got out easy.

Well I chose a topic. Did I say that before? I think I’m getting mixed up with my journal. Well my topic is Michael Eisner is bad for Disney. He Is Not Disney. Yup yup. Let’s see how well I do with it. I hope I get by with a C in the class. (In other words, I don’t have high hopes for a good grade on this paper.)

It’s 11:00. Dangit. I don’t feel like going to bed. Hum.

God, gays; hot weather; cartoons

Saturday, 14 July, 2001 at 1:41 am

Thoughts collected throughout the day.

How can anyone say God hates gays??? ;_; I don’t think God hates anyone except for the ones who blaspheme against Him. I mean, come on, I don’t hate people who do things I don’t like. I hate people who…well, I don’t really hate anyone. I guess I’d hate someone who blasphemed (umm, sp?) against me. Like a rapist, or robber, or something. ^_^;; In the beginning, anyway.

Then I went to godhatesfags.com (how can anyone use slurs, also? there’s such meanness behind it? *koff* there’s my answer ^_^;;) to find a passage saying God hates gays. There wasn’t one, really. I suppose I didn’t look hard enough, but I didn’t want to. I do believe that gays get to heaven in the end. But I don’t want to go deeply into that…heaven and all that is tricky, indeed.

Earlier today, it was so hot!! Well, maybe around 80 or 85 degrees F. ^_^;; But I was upstairs…wearing leggings…with one window open. And no, our house doesn’t need air conditioning. We just need to know the location of the sun and we open/close windows accordingly. But this room is the hottest during the hottest part of the day, number one because one side gets direct hit from the sun, and number two because only one window can be open because of that, and if I wanted circulation, I’d have to drag the fan up here and find something for it to stand on. Too much work.

I watched Walt Disney’s Snow White. The animation was a bit choppier than I remember, but that may be wear and tear, or something, I don’t know. But the fluidity and beauty was a lot, a lot, better than I remember. ^u^ Of course, Prince Charming was bland as usual, and the seven dwarves were entertaining, and Snow White was her innocent, domestic self. The Queen was all cool, though, with her cape, and dress. *drool* Gimme one of those! Man, even her old lady cape looked cooler than Snow White’s dress. The movie was also very spooky. I mean, the backgrounds, and everything, were very visual, and you felt the heightened tension. Well, I did at least. ^_^;;

Then before and during dinner I watched Disney’s version of Beauty and the Beast. I guess it was okay. Some of it was beautiful, but not so much as Pocahontas. *^_^* My fave Disney movie, sadly. I liked Belle’s dresses okay. *rolleyes* It’s all about the clothes. Her ballgown was a bit…tacky, or frilly, or something. Take that overgrown fringe off, dengit! It’s so weird. Ooh, I liked the way they designed the title.

Then I watched Rugrats, an episode I never saw before, and I saw only the second episode, Miss Manners (which I thought was very much so Rugrats) because I was watching the end of Ghostbusters II, and found out the people who play Ray and Igon were the writers. Wow. ^_^; Then I watched the first ep of the Fairly Oddparents. Kinda boring and stupid, but I sorta like those past/future jokes. Bill Gates named his idea Timmysomething, and Timmy’s name was Internet.

Then today I watched an ep of Digimon I’d taped over when I taped the first new ep of Card Captors. And I’d never seen it before. Stupid me. Well anyway, I saw it, and it was cool. I like Sora more, anyway. ^.^

Then I put in Anastasia, the animated FOX version, and fell in love with it again. I love her dresses. Except for that one where sections were cut away and scraps were sewn in. *shudder* Strange. Hmm, It was like, “Oh, just listen to Dmitri and go see Anya!!!” all over again. Teehee.
