Princess + Frog

This screenshot summarizes how I felt about The Princess and the Frog, which is was SUPER excited to see last night...



Skeptical. Unimpressed. Sad.

I was really hoping that it would be wonderful.

But it wasn't.

There were definitely moments that made me very happy and had me LOLing like a giddy little girl, but....they spent most of the movie as friggin' FROGS!

Here are some reviews I agree with:

"Brilliant artwork offset by weak characters and forgettable songs. "

"An important Disney movie but one lacking the emotional impact and memorable great songs of his other hits. "

"Most of The Princess and the Frog looks more like one of Disney’s straight-to-DVD sequels than like their animated classics, and the few big, fun musical set-pieces are brought down by second-rate songwriting."

"Slapdash and second rate in script, animation and musical score, The Princess and the Frog is as shrill, uninteresting and headache-inducing as the worst Saturday morning cartoon. "

"A dull holiday animated feature set in New Orleans with bland characters and an uninventive storyline. "

................................

I think they would have been better off making a movie called The Princess and the FrOG (Friend Of Gays)... a story about a beautiful princess who has to deal with the constant headache of her gorgeous boyfriend being way too gay-friendly and/or metrosexual.

THAT is a movie I think people would love to see.
