I miss Disney’s old animation style so much

#it has so much charm #old disney movies were just so beautiful #and yes movies like frozen and moana are gorgeous too #but there is something about the feeling of classic disney animation that can’t be replicated with their new style #and i miss it #disney #snow white and the seven dwarfs #classic disney #disney renaissance #walt disney animation #beauty and the beast #the little mermaid #peter pan #aladdin #right now the closest i get to the same feeling is Marvel's What If...? #that show's animation just brings me so much happiness #what if...? #marvel #marvel animation #kate's post

First drawing of 2024, by celebrating that Steamboat Willie Mickey is now public domain!

I always wanted to draw Mickey Mouse. Good luck to those who will take advantage of this opportunity.

#disney #illustrations #steamboat willie #mickey mouse #mickey #old cartoons #I gave him a pencil look #I miss the old days where Disney made tv shows and movies about Mickey and his friends. #artsy's fanart

Does anyone remember Star Darlings?

#disneys Star Darlings #I JUST remembered them #currently rebinging webisodes #i genuinely the last time i thought about them was after like 4th or 5th grade #i have a memory of sitting in my old room watching some of the eps #shows like these always fuled my imagination I miss it #star darlings

havent watched either of them yet but i am still annoyed that dw was released last night BEFORE it was broadcast to the beeb... also annoyed that they're showing 2 episodes rather than just one??? like even if the stories are interconnected it just feels wrong to have them one after the other idk....

#im assuming this is an experiment to see if this kinda thing works and if it ends up flopping they'll go back to the old model? #or maybe it's smth in disney+ that means they have to do it this way??? #idk #i know i complained about it before but im still annoyed lol #and i already feel liek it has massively affected how the show performs purely based on barely seeing any posts about it on my dash #like i follow loads of dw blogs and usually after an episode it's rly hard to bypass all the spoilers #but i've seen like 2? things today?? #which tells me either no one has watched it yet OR they watched it last night but didnt blog about it? or i missed their posts idkkk #it just feels WEIRDDD lol #regardless i am looking forward to watching them tonight #and ofc am particularly hyped for the beatles ep pfft #i wanna see how bad (or good!? who knows) the wigs and accents are pffffft #personal

the way teenagers nowadays have no teenage focused media is really sad. they’re watching the same shows as adults, reading the same books, listening to the same music pretty much. there’s no kids tv they’re watching/invested in. the films they watch are films adults would also watch on netflix or disney+. like there’s no real buzz around a teenage thing?? the access to adult online spaces mixed with the real step back from proper investment in children’s tv (disney channel original shows etc.) has just. really made the lines all blurry

#this is off the back of like 14/15 year old kids i teach just basically watching the same things as me sksksks and like there’s nothing #for THEM as kids to watch #like at least when i was younger you had disney channel and so many shows and disney ordinal movies that premiered and everyone was excited #to watch and talk about #now kids are like: did you watch that dharmer documentary miss like HUH #anyways.

every cartoon in the past 10 years has been like “here’s one of our protagonists, a happy-to-lucky oddball preteen girl who’s optimistic to a fault” and every time i’m like alright yes yes keep em comin

#this could also just be a direct at disney tv animation bc. why has every one had this #can't stress how much i don't mean this as a bad thing though #if anything i wish i had like a lot of time to meticulously watch all of gravity falls star amphibia owl house and molly mcgee (and every #other similar show i've missed) and compare #when you think abt the types of characters that are appealing towards kids and what's relatable it makes sense to keep showing #unique and positive representations of girls who may not be as 'adult' as they're supposed to be yet and mess up but bounce back #and i do think the strength of each of those characters comes from the intention of the writers. like it's not like they all literally are #supposed to be carbon copies of each other #but seriously i wish i had like. recently binged all those series. so i could actually talk abt how each character succeeds #bc currently i'm drawing a blank on all but mabel #love you forever mabel #the closest i have ever gotten to 'defending x character on the internet isn't enough i need a gun' #i actually don't understand how the general populous view of her changed so much but that's besides the point #the main point here is i started watching molly mcgee and dude i love it #so silly and fun if anything i wish it were even zanier bc i love the moments when you can tell the crew were just having a good time #personal #all of this also circles back around bc the REASON i started watching molly after being so vaguely aware of it is bc i finally saw a tiktok #showing molly and libby's friendship #and idk if they're even trying to eventually let them be girlfriends but duuuuude i love everything abt them #two total weirdo 13 (?) year olds who just get to be besties and comfy around each other in all their oddness?? #that struck a chord so deep inside me and if representation /is/ what they're going for i think that's a really good angle to take #representing the weird queer girls who stick together #which is also to say that i love!! weird cartoon girl protagonists!! #it's just a good type of girl character to be putting out there #so. yea i love em all. keep em coming. keep showing little girls they can be out there and loud and happy

what’s that thing where the person/entity against you takes the meaningful grievances you have and says it so many times or in ways devoid of all nuance or meaning so then it just gets blocked out or watered down because tv shows love to do that

#ginny and georgia #she hulk #all these pieces of media by like Netflix and Disney in general that take big things like racism and sexism and then decontextualize #some one liners that go around online and make it annoying and miss the points of anything that’s ever been said #anyway I had to watch some of Ginny and Georgia… #you’re not solving racism by being mean to your white mom and saying all the books are written by old white guys #just little sound bites from online arguments that sound so stupid on these shows #she hulk tells Bruce he doesn’t know about controlling anger like her because she’s a woman and has to do that to survive #not necessarily unfounded arguments but it’s not a woman or a young girl dealing with racism #its some companies thinking they can get views by playing their little part #which they do. So yknow

[lovevalley45]

i have absolutely made comparisons between the zaris and liv n maddie bc of course i have but i have randomly remembered the starting premise of that show and. zari n behrad vibes kinda

#alli says shit #i’m not in the mood to do the math but #i was trying to remember what disney sitcoms i’ve missed out on and had vivid nostalgia #when i got to the chunk of shows i actually was old enough for

[kawa1i-imh0tep-ap0logist]

ngl being a “princess character” at Disney in parades and live shows sounds fun, but like doing actual character meet and greets is like hell no

#Like sure I’ll perform as a pretty princess in a show #Like I know I’ll be in a thousand layers of clothing and make-up in the hot fl sun #But if I’m being paid to roleplay them on stage or just stand on a float all day waving at kids then ill do it #But I ain’t dealing with all them sweaty kids disney adults and perverts #Not that I’m old enough to do it #Or even have a job #Or live close to disney lmao #Damn i miss the days where i lived half an hour away from Disney #My family had annual passes + discounts cuz my gramma retired there 🥲 #Disney #somehow i love disney parks despite the spicy autism

[alestrameria]

...do you think we should introduce a twst!slugterra au-

#im v bored okay #and i miss the old disney shows

[peppermintbutch]

insane to think abt how lonely I was like 4 years ago I have no idea how I survived that but I'm so proud of how well I took care of myself despite that. Like I'd go a month or longer without seeing a friend I'd almost cry if I brushed against a stranger on the bus. And now I am surrounded by nice people who care about me <3

#so happie. my flatmate and me watch shitty star trek together almost every night #people talk to each other about how much they like me and we buy each other food and go birdwatching and to protests and the cinema togethe #my one friend tells me she missed me when we haven't seen each other for a week and I think abt them fondly several times a day #i met my other friend last weekend and we baked two cakes that we ate for dinner while watching old disney movies #theo and i took turns showing each other songs for over an hour yesterday #anyway i am :-) yippiieee

I love the idea of the "Disney Princess", simply because the public's idea of a Disney Princess and Disney's idea of a Disney Princess don't actually match up.

Because to the public, a Disney Princess is a type of character in Disney movies. And to Disney, "Disney Princess" is a specific brand with specific characters.

The Disney Princess brand was set up in 2001 after the head of Disney Consumer Products went to a Disney on Ice show, saw hundreds of little girls in generic princess halloween costumes, and went "Wait, why the hell don't we sell Princess dresses?"

Rather than trying to give a dozen movies, many over a decade old, their own individual marketing pushes, they come up with the overarching Disney Princess brand, and launched it featuring ten initial characters:

Snow White, Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Cinderella, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Mulan, Esmerelda, and Tinkerbell.

Esmerelda was soon dropped, probably because Hunchback is a pretty dark Disney movie; and later so was Tinkerbell because they'd started production on her own line of straight-to-DVD movies, leaving the line with eight Princesses.

And now here's the clever part of the branding: when they release a new movie with a new Princess, they don't immediately fold her into the Disney Princess brand. That would cannibalise sales from the movie-specific merchandise. So they wait a year or two for merchandise sales to slow down, before having an official coronation ceremony to add the new Princess to the group.

(And presumably they cab recycle unsold merch under the Disney Princess brand.)

So Tiana got added in 2010, Rapunzel in 2012, Merida became the first Pixar entry in 2013, Moana took three years to be inducted in 2019, and the most recent is Raya in 2022.

So that's the official Disney Princess lineup: Snow White, Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Cinderella, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Mulan, Tiana, Rapunzel, Merida, Moana and Raya.

Now I know what you're thinking: there's a pair of very famous names missing there.

And like I said before: they wait for the merchandise sales to slow down before bringing new characters under the umbrella. Moana seems to have been quite popular, taking three years for Disney marketing to feel comfortable folding her into the brand.

But Frozen still sells like fuckin' hotcakes, even a decade later.

So we have a funny scenario where the two most popular Disney Princesses aren't actually Official Disney Princesses because they're too popular.

..... Okay so I was trusting Disney Plus to watch Mighty Med, right? Because it's easier etc still I went out of my way to download.... through other means the last episode of S1 so I could do screenshots streaming doesn't allow you to do.

Turns out I found the 45-minute long version of the episode (that's split into two on D+) and I guess,to fit that terrible theme song on Part 2,they had to cut a big chunk of this scene where the Twins tie Alan up and reveal they're Catastrophe to him etc

In the Two-Part Cut they're already here

Which I thought was lame and it felt like something was missing (which it WAS)

idk ofc I'm going to say this but I feel like it was an important scene that was cut since it's the only episode where Wallace and Clyde become their "true form" or whatever from what I can tell.

These are THE characters I care about and all this shit has to happen to me, I hate this mouse with a passion,I wonder if Keyan The Reviewer Guy got to see Alan getting gagged by Clyde.

Fuck streaming services, it's a pirate's life for me.

#cys.txt #cys.pics #mighty med #disney #old evil twins tag #Disney Plus #i know that wasn't a D+ edit it was an edit done to air the episodes separately #but would it have hurt D+ to put the 45-minute version instead #if I were only watching this casually I would have completely missed out on that scene and never know #it makes me mad #to think about all the other shows this was done to

Aaron going through boxes of old stuff and finding a journal of yours from a long time ago. He opens it out of curiosity and reads about how your younger self always wanted to be called princess from a significant other so he tries it out along with buying a nice bouquet of flowers 🤭

Aaron’s cheeks were almost hurting by smiling all day, because he was surrounded by boxes of your belongings that would soon be all over his house. Your house.

One certain box with the word “memories” in capital letters written on it though, drew his attention. Opening it, he was met with a few books, magazines, cards, and concert tickets.

At the bottom of the box, there was a pink journal with your name decorating its cover.

It looked personal, but it also looked like it was from a long time ago. He couldn’t help it, and with his curiosity getting the better of him, he opened it.

The pages were filled with pink glittery letters, little drawings, and stickers of Disney princesses and Barbie characters.

He smiled with affection while turning the pages and seeing what your younger self used to fill her journal with. He almost skipped a page when his eyes fell on the title written on top of it.

“My dream boy!”

Oh, this is gonna be interesting, he thought.

Aaron found himself competing with the ideal version of a boyfriend your teenage self had. He went through every single point you had written down, and mentally checked it.

That version of you, was still part of who you were today, and the last thing he wanted was to disappoint you or not be enough.

Tall – check.

Dark hair – check.

Sweet – check, well to you at least.

Brings me flowers – check.

Calls me princess – not check.

Princess, huh? That was new.

He knew that you were big on pet names, but princess had never occurred to him before.

A smirk grew on his face. It was time to see if your tastes had changed.

--

Just the day after, Aaron made sure to visit a flower shop after work and buy your favorite flowers. If he was gonna try something, he was going to do it right.

He found you sitting on the couch, eating a bag of chips and scrolling on your phone, some show on the TV playing in the background. You left it open for company when he wasn’t there and something inside him stung a little.

“Baby?”

You threw your head back on the couch and looked up at him as he moved closer. “You’re home,” you sighed with a smile. “Missed you.”

“I did too.” He leaned down to kiss you on the lips and brought the flowers he was hiding behind his back in front of you. “That’s why I decided to get some flowers to my princess.”

Your face lightened up at the sight of the beautiful bouquet and the sound of the pet name. “Aaron!”

You stood up on the couch and threw yourself at him, hugging him with a force that could bring down a bear. “Thank you!”

“You like them, honey?”

“I love them.”

Aaron sighed at the feeling of your lips on his neck, as you left little kisses on the curve of it. “Anything for my princess.”

Your face was still hidden in the crook of his neck but Aaron could feel you laughing.

“What are the giggles for?”

“Nothing…”

He pulled back just enough so he could look at your face, and grabbed your chin softly. You averted your eyes from him as if you had something to hide.

“Y/N?”

“It’s nothing!” you insisted. “I just like to be called that,” you added quietly, playing with a button from Aaron’s shirt. You still wouldn’t look at him.

“To be called what?” he asked.

“Princess…”

“I know.” He smirked.

“What do you mean?”

“I read it in your diary.”

“What?” you raised your voice and he couldn’t help but laugh.

“I found it through your old stuff.”

“Aaron, I’m gonna kill you!”

“I’m sorry!”

“No, you’re not. You’re laughing.”

“Oh come on, it got you what you wanted.”

“Shut up,” you said , furrowing your brows.

The two of you sat on the couch and he tried to pull you into his arms. After showing resistance for a few seconds, you let him hold you.

“What else did you read?”

“I saw the whole list. About your dream guy.”

“I don’t remember adding ‘he reads my journal without permission’,” you said.

“I do have all the rest though,” he said with a cocky smile.

“You do, I guess,” you admitted, rolling your eyes. “I was manifesting.”

“I hope you’re happy with the guy the universe sent you then, princess.”

“Ah…” you threw your head back with a lovesick smile. “And it's only getting better.”

NEED A HAND .ᐣ

ft. kuroo tetsuro

cw : mechanic!kuroo. fluff. petnames ( sweetheart, girl ).

wc : 1096

of course. of course your car decides fizzle out into broken sounds of rusty engines when you’re on your way to an extremely important interview. oh, but that’s just your luck.

it was inevitable, really. you should’ve known that your car would give out on you as soon as you heard its slight struggle to turn on this morning, a faint clicking noise when you had put the key in the ignition.

dressed to impress in your recently ironed button up and steamed slacks, you fret to bang your head on the steering wheel at the smell of old car oil. the summer heat was not doing you favors when you stepped out to take a look, beaming down on you in a heated mockery. you can practically see your new job opportunity flash away before your eyes as you notice the steam that rises from the hood of your car, cursing to yourself under your breath as you dial up the number of what could’ve been your new boss.

“ need a hand ? ”

there’s a pause in your actions as you turn to the source of the rhetorical question, and you’re pleasantly surprised to see a rather handsome man who stands in front of his car door.

“ if you could manage to salvage my interview instead, i’d take all the help i could get ”

the man chuckles at your disheartened words, walking toward your car with a tool box in hand.

“ unfortunately im just a mechanic, so i can’t help you with that. but hey, duty calls right ? ”

you honestly couldn’t tell whether to call this situation lucky or unlucky. your car broke down, but a mechanic who just so happens to have a daringly attractive face stops to help you. could you complain ?

you admire the man who pops your hood open, tight fitted t-shirt and lazily strewn overalls that fall over his workboots in a denim curtain. his hair is a shiny black, hanging over his eyes as his forehead sheens with a dull sweat from the hot sun.

he inspects your car with his calloused hands that over time dirty up from the oilish debris, pulling and twisting at the foreign car parts with vein popped arms. you’re staring, and maybe it’s the heat outside that’s making you crazy, but this man had to be an angel sent from heaven with how incredibly beautiful he looked, even while wearing dirtied up overalls.

“ hey, girl. might just be my head talking, but it looks like you haven’t gotten your oil changed since the stone age. ”

he pulls the dipstick out to show you, and it indeed was incredibly low and colored with a tarish black. that’s when you realize that you in fact dont even remember the last time you had been to the shop to keep your car in check. how embarrassing.

“ i hate to say your assumption is probably right… that’s so humiliating ! i’ve been so busy trying to find a job and getting my life back on track i didn’t even think to have it checked. im so sorry ! ” you ramble in embarrassment, face feeling hot in your hands at the discovery that you might just be a complete idiot.

“ no need to get so worked up, sweetheart. luckily, you ran into a mechanic. sit tight. ”

you watch as he steps aside to his car, retrieving a jug of what seems to be car oil and a bucket.

the man slips under your car, working what you believe in your heart is mechanical magic, pacing around as you realize the clock as already struck 11:45, you missed your interview. you feel as though you’re in a disney movie, playing as cinderella with your carriage falling apart before you make it to the ball.

the man scooches his way out from under your car to pop open the lid of a brand new oil jug, pouring it down into the oil pan, and you realize that throughout your series of unfortunate events, you’ve barely said a word to this kind stranger.

“ i forgot to ask, what’s your name ? ”

his head cocks to the side as he continues to pour the jug, strokes of motor oil smudged onto his cheekbone and staining his clothes.

“ tetsuro, kuroo. or, you could just call me your life saving mechanic, because your car’s all fixed. ”

your face lightens up when he tells you the good news, which is something you never thought you’d hear on such a disaster of a day like this one. he turns on your car for a final check, no annoying clicking noises along with the smoothest sounding start up you think you’d ever heard.

“ thank you ! oh god, thank you so much ! you don’t understand the day i’ve had, you seriously just saved me. ”

“ happy to help a damsel in distress. but, maybe change your oil more often, yeah ? your car might explode next time. ”

your face drops in fear at the thought of your car catching on fire due to your scatter brain, and kuroo laughs at the worry written on your features.

“ i’m joking, don’t worry your pretty little head. sorry i couldn’t get you to your interview, though.”

relief washes over you as he confirms your car wouldn’t explode, and you move yourself to give an appreciative bow to kuroo.

“ thank you so much again. please, how can i repay you ? i dont know if i have cash on me… ”

kuroo’s hand raises as he waves in dismissal, a sly, handsome grin covering his muddied face.

“ no need to repay me. it’s my pleasure to help a sweet girl like you, it’s my job after all. ”

“ thank you… but i insist ! it’s so hot out, and you got all dirty just because i decided to be forgetful. ”

kuroo thinks for a moment, but in his mind he didn’t even have to reflect on it. he knew what he wanted to ask since the moment he stepped out of his vehicle to find you on the verge of tears by the side of the road.

“ well, if you insist… i wouldn’t mind a date with you. is that negotiable, sweetheart ? ”

you may feel like cinderella, but at the end of the day, you managed to score a hot date with the mechanic prince.

oh, but that’s just your luck.
