i guess that i am the first to rewad since phase again... oh, welll, here goes...:)


to phase.. i know you are listening.....

1. were you drunk, or just off of a high at the time of writingh this letter?????
(this would explian the irrationality...

 So sorry John. I guess you "Disney Fags"

hmm.. now that is an intelligent statement, right off the bat....
granted most of us may be uinto some sort of anthromorphic beastiality, 
but other than that, we (as a whole) are probably sraighter than you will ever hope to be.... in gact you probably are afraid that you are a fag, thereby
projecting it onto others.... and to clarify a statement... 
anthromorphic beastiality - this means that the girls like beast.. 
(he's mine, he's mine  comes right to mind.....)
and the guys are into fish... (not really a fish, but pase thinks so, right phase
`cuz i know that i am VERY guilty of liking ariel... (all flames welcome)..
and that is what i think of your first statement... 

just can't handle anything but "I love EVERYTHING Disney has ever done!"
to be posted in this newsgroup

I *KNOW* for a fact that that isn't true.. i have posted stuff about hating the "whole new world" pop version, some people even agreed with me.... :P

(hey, if you (phase) are being childish i have a right to too...:)

 I have strong opinions
about the marketing path that Disney is taking, and how it is affecting
thier films,

granted, so do i... i used to look for merchandise put out by them for the little mermaid...
but now it's like anywhere you go, you find stuf...
i could list off about 5000 items,right now..
from tents, to bikes, to band-aids, to kites, to drapes,to figures, to shampoo,
to posters, to cards, to video games..(5 versions...), etc, etc, etc....

but some of you can't even handle a criticism of any Disney product.
granted some can't, but why go after all of us?...

No offense to the open-minded and discerning Disney fans who have written
me.

would i be included in that group.. or did i just lose my status?...

 Am I upset that they are marketing Aladdin for veery cent they can?
It sure sounds like it...

No, not for them trying to make money off a popular production. But it has
been pushed over the edge of healthy practice, by the success of The Little
Mermaid.

hmm, i didn`t even read though this, just saw the last line.. we must be thinking along the same lines.... now that is scary!!!!!!
(nobody thinks like i do...sorry...:)

 Now disney films are not written and animated and compsoed simply
with the notion of making the finest film possible, Disney breeds films
that are sure to create pop-culture icons of merchandising dollars.

i'm not too sure about that, i have staryted to like disney movies since the little mermaid..., and i have even thought of some more marketing products for them...
(perish the thought!!!!!!)

   And I think Aladdin shows the path that Disney films will take.

yeah, me too.. great computer animation, good characters, in a fanciful world 
where things will turn out all right in the end...
isn`t that the backbone of the american dream, or am i wrong?....
am i starting to quote movies now?... i don't mean to....
(b+b, don't worry, everything willll be alll right in th'end..-mrs. potts...)

I have always had great respect for Disneys animated films, but Aladdin
has lowered my respect to only slightly above thier hideous, low quality
as a rule of thumb, modern liveractions trash like Pretty Woman,
Newsies, and the Mighty Ducks and Rocketeer.
i am sorry, i haven`t seen newsies, but i can comment on  the rest...
i thought that "pretty woman" was a great film by all measures...
i even bought the original..(i only have 4...) it was the ultimate story of dreams coming true.... "i want the dream...-julia roberts....
rocketeer had a weak plot to begin with.. they couldn't do much after that...
(see i *don't like all disney films...
the mighty ducks  was an interesting comedy.. not to good tho.. 
i *was* dissapointed... but i would like to hear the music from the newsies...
you probably didn`'t like that one because of the "dancing fags" right?

sorry... i just have a knack for guessing....

 Every inch and facet of Aladdin reaks of the shameless commercialism it was
concieved under. The music, the marketing, the film, it is a MTV era, teen
spiritshoddy attempt at making money. The whole film was desigend to be an ad.
 Aladdin, unfortunately, comes across to me as a 2 hour commerical!
It has affected the quality of the film immensely. Nuff said.

no, not enough was said...

granted, it may be commercialistic.. but that is the way robin willianms
does his stuff... ever see good morning vietnam?.... that was a good film.. 
you should see everything that he does....tom brokejaw, gomer pyle, etc, etc,
the music was mtvish.. only a whole new world... and then that was redone and
made into a version that stinks....(yes there is another thing that i don't like about disney, this is almost scary....:)

comes across as a two hour commercial?.... hmm, it was only an hour and a half long... and what were they commerching?.. hmm...?


well, time to get going onto something more important..
