At Christmas time I often share my thoughts whilst watching Lifetime movies. It makes people (mostly me) laugh so I’ve started applying this (self titled) skill to other areas.

These are the 19 thoughts I had whilst watching the live action Little Mermaid (that I remember, 6 hours later). There’s no spoilers, but some will make more sense than others (perhaps) when you see the film.

  • Nice to start with a nod to Hans Christian Andersen
  • Underwater! Pretty! It’s like a National Geographic photo. Bet the 3D would be epic.
  • Wish 3D didn’t make me sick.
  • Sisters are doing it for themselves.
  • Aww Sebastian, so so cute.
  • Origin stories!! Origin stories!!! There’s enough for prequels.
  • I’d watch them.
  • Loving the new songs.
  • Aww Max. I love you.
  • Eric can sing!
  • Why wasn’t Melissa McCartney in that Stars Hollow musical?
  • Ok, the whole mute thing could have been better. Not being able to talk is the most frustrating thing ever and I’m not really getting it.
  • Cameo! Cameo! Cameo!
  • Seriously, it’s such a minor, positive change. Was it really worth all that fuss?
  • Hidden Mickey!! On the curtain! Behind Ariel!
  • My name is Alexander Hamiliton. There’s a lot of things I haven’t done.
  • Is that the chandalier from BATB?
  • I’m not crying, you are.
  • James ain’t here, I can watch the entire credits.
