Waterloo Road (2006)
I'm hooked!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love this programme. As a 15 year girl in year 11, it really appeals to me. But to be honest, its 10 times worse than my school. But i think it is a great school for a city school.
Anyway, its basically about a run down school, were the pupils are really badly behaved, and the teachers cant control them. The head teacher appoints Andrew as the new deputy head teacher. Andrew is a Oxford graduate, and used to teaching private schools, not bad public schools. Andrew tries to bring authority, and eventually it works... and just loads of different things go on... like Dante and Chlo's car crash story line... and the love triangle between the 3 teachers (cant remember there names... Izzy, Lorna and the guy...) Ill be sad to see this end. I hope it comes back for a 2nd series!!
The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea (2000)
Its OK.... better than other Disney sequels..
OK so this isn't the best Disney sequel or the worst. Its watchable. However i don't like the songs, and to be honest, like other sequels, the graphics is really bad. Eric and king triton look really weird, so does Ariel to a point.
Anyway the story is, Ariel and Eric have a baby daughter called melody. When she goes to show melody to king triton, ursalla's evil sister Morgana tries to kill her. After that, until Morgana has been caught, Ariel decides melody cant go in the sea, ever!
12 years on, there's a big wall to stop melody getting out, even tho shes found away, and she is obsessed with the sea, bit like Ariel used to be obsessed with humans when she was a teenager. Melody knows nothing of her past, until while in the sea one day, she finds the necklace her grandfather gave to her, and goes off to find out what it means. She meets Morgana on the way,and she turns her into a mermaid. They make a deal, if melody can get the Titan (tritons fork thingy, cant remember what its called) to her by the sun sets, Morgana will make her a mermaid forever.........
Id give this 5 Etta 10. For me it didn't spoil the original version, which is good, but it wasn't that great either. Not bad, but not great.
The Black Cauldron (1985)
bad!!
OK, so this film came out 5 years before i was born, but i got it on DVD when i was about 7/8 and remember never really liking it that much. I watched it, but was like OMG I HAVE TO WATCH IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!
I watched it again recently, and realised, i was so right as a kid. The story itself is quite dark, which i like, but the acting (or voicing, whatever lol) is terrible, and i just thought the whole thing was boring.
Something i noticed was, it was the magical world of Prydain... so as a welsh speaker, i realised Prydain meant Britain.. So i decided to look on IMDb to find out more. Turns out, it is set in wales, and OK, some of the names are welsh -WHY THE HECK DO THEY ALL SOUND LIKE POSH English SNOBS THEN!!! Welsh and English people have very different accents, so i just couldn't understand how if it was set in wales, why did none of them sound welsh!!
Anyway, this film isn't very good, bit of a Disney flop. Watch it if you have nothing better to do, but if you have to pick from this and the lion king, pick the lion king!
Pocahontas (1995)
powerful love story!!
I have to admit, when this came out when i was 5, it wasn't one of my favourite Disney films... least i don't remember it being.
But recently, I've been watching all my Disney films again (a way to get away from GCSEs meh!) and Pocahontas just got me!! I loooved it!! The songs were stuck in my head for ages. And the love between Pocahontas and John Smith just aah!! Sooo romantic. The line "Pocahontas, id rather die tomorrow, than live 100 years without knowing you" is one of the most beautiful quotes I've ever heard. The ending is so sad tho, most Disney films they live happily ever after, but john smith has to go back to Britain. Its very sad :(
I really do believe this film is probably the most beautiful Disney film there ever was. Its weird, now that I'm older, i understand it more, so maybe thats why it wasn't one of my favourites when i was a kid, because i didn't understand the love, the history.
However I BEG OF YOU!! if you love this film, PLEASE do not watch the sequel. It will ruin it for you, i promise.
A Goofy Movie (1995)
BRILLIANT!! but soo underrated!! Should of got more recognition!
This is such a underrated Disney movie!! It is definitely one of my top 5 favourites. This came out in 1995, when i was 5, so i grew up with it, and i loved it. The songs, the characters (especially max!) but until a few days ago, i hadn't seen it for a good 5 years. And it totally surprised me, that i still enjoyed it!
it just reminds me of how things were in the 90s (rock on the 90s!!) and now I'm the same age as max was in the film, and i can totally relate to all the pressures he is under. I'm constantly singing all the songs (spesh open road!!) The little romance with Roxanne and Max is sooo cute!! I like the fact that she is normal, not a prep, goth, nerd.. just normal.
Anyway, the story is, max, goofys 15ish year old son, has a mega crush on Roxanne, and is over the moon when she agrees to go on a date with him. However, after finding out his son has been in trouble in school, goofy decides to take max on a fishing/road trip across America, to stop him ending up in the electric chair. Max really doesn't want to go, as it will mean he will miss his date with Roxanne, and he is devastated when she says she will find someone else. So he makes up that he is going to see powerline in concert, to keep her keen. But the only problem is, he isn't, and he has to find a way to get to the powerline concert. Lots of arguments between goofy and max on the way, its fantastic!!!
Seriously, watch this!! You'll prob like this better if you've grown up with it, but i bet those that haven't will like it too!!
Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World (1998)
Never EVER should they of allowed this out!!
I remember buying this when i was 8, back in 1998, and not being over excited by it, but when your 8, that sort of stuff doesn't bother you
Just recently, i decided to watch Pocahontas 1, and fell in love with it!! Then i made the mistake of watching THIS film. It totally spoilt the plot! OK, so I've heard that Disney mucked up on the original, WHO CARES!! I didn't like John Rofle, and what the heck had happened to John Smith!!! The graphics on this film are bad! seriously.
Basically the story is, Pocahontas goes with john rofle to Britain because the king wants to see her. Thats it.
If you love the first one, please please please, do not watch this one now. It will just ruin it for you
