i mentioned making a poll about which of the remaining muppet movies (from the muppets cinematic universe) will make me cry and my best friend endorsed it so, considering i've cried at: - The Muppet Movie (1979), - The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984), - ALMOST at Follow That Bird (1985), - The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland (1999) and at - The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992),

"On the line was Vanessa, the student chosen to play Sister Sarah, the Salvation Army missionary who parries with inveterate gambler Sky in Guys and Dolls. After nervously stumbling over small talk, Clash’s cast mate lowered the boom. “You know, in the musical you and I have to kiss . . . We can’t do that.”
Vanessa’s mother, coaxing in the background, prompted her to ask Kevin to step down from the role. Clash’s heart sank at the bold attempt to undo a decision that wasn’t hers to manipulate: “What she was really saying was, ‘We can’t kiss in front of everyone at school because you are black and I am white.’ ”
Did not expect to find anything new about Kevin clash in this book but damn did i

Aita for dismissing my daughter when she talked about lost media being found?
So my daughter (13) is really into lost media. She was really excited at the dinner table last night because she just found out that the Margaret Hamilton wicked witch of the West sesame Street episode was found. (She was always into this stuff because she watched a documentary on the lost doctor who episodes in 4th grade and was obsessed ever since)
She then started talking about a movie (I think it was called jojo something blood) where she calls it her new "holy grail" because the wicked witch episode was found. I listened to her talk for a while about it and she said that it might still be found because the wicked witch episode was found after 50 years or something. I told her that stuff like this usually doesn't get found (especially since she told me that the series creator didn't like it) but she yelled at me because she just wanted to talk about her interest. She stormed out of the room and locked herself in there. I texted her to see if she was okay and she said that she just needed time to herself.
I'm glad that it makes her happy but I was just trying to be realistic. AITA?
What are these acronyms?

my brain is fried i'm so overtired I've cried spontaneously at least once a day for the past three days will you please help a girl out with a soft cozy wholesome movie recc please and thank you
I’m so sorry my dear!! I dug to the depths of a bunch of old tag games and my film tag and this is what I came up with!
when I’m strung out I tend to gravitate to movies that will make me happy-cry so this list will at moments tend in that direction. I tried to sort by what was available to stream now, and the sub-lists are in no particular order
if you have amazon prime (the basic package):
Penelope (2006). highly recommend, a funny little modern fairy tale about a lonely young girl searching for a way to break her curse. this one heals something in my heart
Stardust. also highly recommend! a chaotic fairy tale about true love and what a person would do for it.
Street Gang. the Sesame Street documentary. sometimes people are good and they’re trying to make the world a better place and they’re doing it with their friends.
How To Train Your Dragon. it’s a perfectly executed film and the score and animation is gorgeous. (also available on netflix)
if you have netflix:
Feel the Beat. a dance flick about a seemingly cold-hearted ambitious young woman becoming a dance teacher in her hometown
To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before. so so so rewatchable.
She’s the Man. the funniest movie on this list and possibly of all time. I have never shown this movie to a person who didn’t end up loving it. it’s Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night at boarding school as a soccer movie
if you have tubi?? you might not need a membership I don’t know how tubi works??
The Music Man. some of the best costumes and choreography my favorite age of movie musicals had to offer. a con man comes to a small Iowa town and starts to want to believe in the beautiful lie he’s selling.
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. this movie was written by Roald Dahl and it is buck wild. widowed inventor and his two children buy a broken down racing car and?? hijinks and musical numbers ensue
if you have disney plus:
Princess Diaries (1&2). we know them, we love them.
Sky High. if you haven’t seen this, I highly recommend it because it is silly fun but it understands the genre it’s playing with.
Newsies (1992). scrappy newsboys form a union, sing songs, punch each other, ???, profit
Holes. the single best adapted book to film ever? the cast commentary is also hilarious
Rodgers and Hammerstein Cinderella (1997). absolutely delightful. Whitney Houston as the godmother! Jason Alexander as the butler! Brandy as Cinderella! Bernadette Peters as the stepmother!
if you feel up for a trip to the library, things to look for:
The Hundred Foot Journey. I only saw this one once but it’s about a family who opens up an Indian restaurant across from a Michelin-starred French restaurant and it’s gorgeous
A League of Their Own (1992). sisters! best friends! married women and their disreputable drunk coach friends!
The Secret Garden (1993). highly recommend! this one fixes me down to my bones.
This Beautiful Fantastic. also highly recommend! a woman who’s afraid of the world falls in love with it.
Secondhand Lions. also highly recommend!! a boy gets dropped off with his great-uncles for the summer, hears possibly made-up stories of their wild and adventurous youth
August Rush. a young musical prodigy searches for his parents.
Sense and Sensibility (1995). if you need Austen energy, this is the one.
Cinderella (2015). this movie is so gentle and so lovely.
Little Women (1994). life is gonna be hard and sad but it’s gonna be beautiful and the love will endure!!!
I hope this helps and I hope you feel better! ❤️❤️

i love watching the old sesame street episodes with my kids. no instant gratification and fast edits like the newer 30 minute episodes. no, you will sit through these weird old cartoons and slow short documentary pieces and 15 minute single shot sketches with muppets AND YOU WILL LIKE IT
