The little mermaid is my favorite film. It is actually based on a Danish fairy tale by Hans Christian Anderson.
Wow, I've heard that a lot of the older Disney films are based on fairy tales or old classic books. Do you know of any exceptions?
No I don't, they probably all originated some place. This film started the whole Disney Renaissance.
Really? It's crazy to think that there was a time that Disney wasn't around, isn't it? They are so prevalent today that it's hard to imagine for me!
I know, I love Disney. The Little Mermaid seems like it was released so long ago, 1989, and it made so much money at the box office!
Goodness, 1989 was before I was even born. My roommate absolutely LOVES Disney, and there are plenty of Disney films that I enjoy quite a bit. What do you like about Disney films? Anything in particular? Do they just make you feel happy or even nostalgic?
I just love the story telling and the animations. Little Mermaid had a sequel, a prequel, spin off tv show, I have seen them all.
Wow, I was not even aware of that. How many in total do you think there are?
