The Little Mermaid

   26 January 2007, early morning

I bought Shima the Little Mermaid for her birthday. Disney recently put it on DVD. We watched it on Monday, which was the day her birthday fell on. I haven’t seen the film in years. The plot is, as you probably know, about a mermaid who falls in love with a prince, much to her father’s chagrin. After all this time I think the film holds up quite well. It doesn’t feel dated. It’s a nice movie, from a period of time when Disney was churning out good cartoons. They had a pretty good streak going for a little while.

[Aside: My movie watching has slowed to a crawl. That sucks. There are so many films I want to see.]

Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
