Movies and Music!!!

This summer I have been watching old animated Disney movies that I haven’t seen in forever. I’ve seen Dumbo, Sleeping Beauty, Toy Story, Fantasia, 101 Dalmatians, Jungle Book, and right now I am watching Snow White. I want to watch Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Peter Pan, Pocahontas, Robin Hood, Oliver & Company, Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Bambi, The Fox and the Hound, Pinocchio, and probably some more. Well considering that it’s July and I have 2 weeks of camp coming up it is looking less likely for me to finish that list. But I really love these movies. Also I want to watch The Sword and the Stone. We have it somewhere but it isn’t with the rest of the movies.

Snow White had really good animation for being made in the 1930’s. Some parts of Sleeping Beauty had really bad animation.

PIXAR

I love PIXAR films. I haven’t seen Wall-e because I don’t want to see a bad PIXAR movie and I’m pretty sure that it is a bad movie. My parents saw it and said it wasn’t the best movie. But everything else PIXAR has done was amazing.

Computer Animation

The new computer animation is cool but I like the older animation a little better except when it is bad animation.

Music

Movies probably have the best music written today. I love the music for Snow White, Beauty and the Beast and a lot of movies. In my opinion the best composers of today are John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Michael W. Smith. My dad said that that was bias.

Hey!

I haven't posted anything in forever. I got back from Zoe's house a few days ago. It was so much fun. But I really miss Zoe and Tabeeb. I'm watching I Love Lucy. It's a good show.

I've been having to read 2 books for school next year. A Tale of Two Cities and Edith Hamilton's Mythology. They are really boring. I'd rather be reading what I want to read but I really want to be in Pre-AP English2. So I have to read those books.

My cello is going pretty good but it's really hard and hurts my hand. I think I have a lesson today. I loved playing Zoe's harp. It was so much fun. I wrote a song for the harp but it's really easy. I also wrote a song for the piano. I'm not sure how good it is. It's fun to play but it might be too repetitive.

I watched a weird movie last night. It was called Little Manhattan. It was about a boy who thought he was in love with this girl. The kid was just 10 or 11. It was kinda funny. And at the end of the movie it played a song that Zoe sang for voice. After the movie I had that song stuck in my head.

Well that's all I have to say. Bye
