    Man talk about ironic timing. I just heard of the passing of legendary Disney voice actress Pat Carroll. Pat truly was a legend with a one of kind voice and cackle behind one of the greatest Disney villains of all time. Pat left behind a performance as Ursula which will never be forgotten, and although it was far from her only role, it is definitely the one she'll be remembered in for generations to come. As her child put it "Mom, do you realize that we grew up watching Disney films, and now your grand children will hear you in a Disney film." May she rest in peace.

      Pat also don't mind that people will remember Ursula as her famous character. She loves Ursula so much. We all will remember her sense of humor, Voice and Laughter forever. RIP Pat Carroll.

      _The Little Mermaid_ was actually the first great movie Disney had made in decades-since at least the 60s. _Encanto_ (2021) seems to have been well-received, and both _Zootopia_ and _Moana_ were pretty great. It's mainly just Disney's live-action remakes which have been thoroughly disappointing.

      Do you know the true origins of Ursula? They hint it a little in the animated version when she talks when she was eating while watching Ariel hurry back home after consulting with Scuttle. She mentions “… In my day we had fantastical feasts when I lived in the palace…” only royalty lives in palaces so was she queen? No to young for that. Princess? That would make her Triton’s sister. Also, in the Broadway musical, Ursula refers to Triton as “…Brother, Darling…” when King Triton confronts her after taking Ariel captive after the sunset on the 3rd day. (There was no Vanessa. She still used her voice to distract Eric and win the “contest” that was happening to find the right voice. Lastly, there is a book called “Poor Unfortunate Soul” which I need to read but I was told by friends it explains her origin and relationship with Triton.
      Hope I haven’t bored anyone…

      ​​​​@@adrienalice1568Because they're okay with race swapping good characters but not villains. When will people get it that doing that isn't okay regarding of the race being changed? If Halle is as good as Disney has convinced everyone she is and that's truly the only reason she got the part (and you'd be an idiot if you believe that, as that excuse wouldn't fly if they were to race swap Tiana), they should have created an original role just for her. No one would have had a problem with that, and it would have created more original characters for people to admire and see themselves in. But they had to needlessly change an established character and expect anyone who doesn't shill for Disney to be okay with it. Both Ariel and Vanessa are the same race. Vanessa was literally meant to look and sound exactly like Ariel, only with dark hair. That's part of how she was able to bewitch Eric. He wouldn't have looked at her long enough for Ursula to cast her spell had she looked entirely different from Ariel (remember, he saw her well enough that the only reason he didn't think Ariel was the one who saved him was because she couldn't talk or sing). If they were going to change Ariel, they should have changed everyone. I'm sorry, I am just not okay with the one redheaded character I, as a redhead, saw myself in, being taken away. It isn't fair to people like me, who have so few characters as it is and who've spent a life time being made fun of for our hair color and being rejected for blondes and brunettes, and it also isn't fair for people of color to not get original characters.

    Voice actors are just so magical and good at what they do, because they go in knowing they can't rely on their body and movements to show the emotions and actions. When you add such talented, expressive voices to wonderful animation, then you get magic. This is why live versions with standard actors have such a hard time living up to their animated counterparts. However, I still think the live versions have value and can bring something new to the table. This is my favorite Disney movie, but I'm also looking forward to the live version.

What did his son do?? He whacked the other guy with the doll..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
