Ohhhh, Ichabod Crane, why are you the best cartoon ever?

This is a CLASSIC. To be honest, I don't know if I've ever watched the Mr. Toad segment all the way through, but it was a great one. I'm actually shocked at how little I know about Wind in the Willows, and I feel like I should read it. I didn't realize Mr. Toad was landed gentry. 😂

Notable Grossness

The fat girl at the Van Tassel's party is the ugly, annoying one that Brom makes a disgusted face about and then tries to pass off on Ichabod.

Mr. Toad, a gray toad wearing a red jacket, yellow sweater, blue bow tie, gray pants, white stockings, and gray shoes stands on top of a yellow carriage holding brown leather reins, while a white horse with a gray tail, and a straw hat rides forward pulling the carriage. They're both shouting. The caption reads, 'I'm so rich there are no consequences!'

Of course, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is perfect at Halloween, and other than it's weird random fat-shaming, it's a complete joy. The animation is great, the action is intense and scary, and the characters are well developed (except for Katrina). I wish the entire plot wasn't the rivalry between Brom and Ichabod, but aside from that, it's really just a joyful thing to watch. To me this is peak Disney short cartoon.

More Disney Animated Features

A movie release poster shows a group of white people, 4 men, a woman, and a young boy, surrounding a green animated dragon with pink wings and red hair. The poster says "Coming at Christmas, Walt Disney Productions' Pete's Dragon"
Pete's Dragon
Five human actors, a woman, a man, and three children of various ages, sit on a flying brass bed with a floral blanket, with the moon and clouds behind them. Below them, illustrated animals are in various poses: two fish dance together (one in a suit); two fish and an octopus play in a band together with the words "The Briny Boys" on the front of the drum kit; an alligator, a rhino, and a gorilla run around a soccer field in yellow and green athletic outfits; a lion in a crown and red royal robe stands with one foot on the soccer ball; and a secretary bird in a suit with glasses stands watching.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Bert, a chimney sweep, Jane, a young blonde child in a red dress and yellow overcoat, Michael, a young strawberry blonde child in short pants and a button coat, and Mary Poppins, a nanny in a red dress with a black hat with white flowers, stand on a rooftop, covered in soot.
Mary Poppins
Bigfoot, a giant humanoid creature with red fur, sits in front of a cardboard box with a downward pointing arrow on the side, wearing a pair of white men's briefs underwear on his head. He holds the crotch hole open with his fingers so he can look out. Goofy, a dog-like humanoid cartoon with black skin and a pale face, and long ears, watches from his yellow car several hundred feet behind Bigfoot, with his son Max in the passenger seat; Max looks similar to Goofy.

The Lion King

February 22nd, 2022

This is a really epic movie, but it's less of my favorite than I remember. It still has some great moments and songs I like but basically, the half of the movie where Simba's away from Pride Rock is more boring than I remember, and I care a lot less about Simba when he's not a tiny baby.

The Nightmare Before Christmas

July 13th, 2021

Do I honestly even have to review this movie? I have a matching tattoo with my brothers where we each got Lock, Shock, or Barrel. I think it's safe to say I love the hell out of this movie. I've also seen it so many times, and so many times recently, that I ranked it before I even started it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Aladdin

This is really just such a joyful piece of art, not ONLY because of Robin Williams but definitely a lot because of Robin Williams.

Beauty and the Beast

I love Belle and the animated furniture is charming. I liked this a lot more when I was a kid.

The Rescuers Down Under

This is legit one of my favorite movies.

DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp

June 15th, 2021

What in the actual hell is this movie? Is this the trial run on Aladdin? But like.............a bad one? Also the literal best part of this movie is when they play the DuckTales theme. At the end. :sigh:
