Current Events > I really like Encanto

(+) Yeah! (+)

I watched it when it came out on D+. Felt a little lukewarm towards it, but I feel like it's growing more and more on me. I think I was just weirded out by the plot progression as it feels a little unusual to me. I think the songs are all top-notch and have listened to them many a times since first watching it.

A lot of my feelings towards 2010's Disney/Pixar is that it was actually pretty meh overall (I vastly prefer late 90's Disney with Mulan and Hercules being some of my favorites) with maybe two movies that I actually really enjoy rewatching (Wreck-it-Ralph 1 (not that abomination called Ralph Breaks the Internet) and Zootopia) from Disney and then Toy-Story 3 from Pixar.

Hoping 2020's Disney turns it around.

We don't talk about Bruno

I didn't

felt too close to home

I thought it was pretty ok.
Loved that We Don't Talk About Bruno was basically just a heel version of Non-Stop from Hamilton

Yeah, I had a feeling like "oh, I guess that's it" when the credits rolled. It was wrapped up well enough, but it was unusual that there weren't any real villains or destructive stakes.

Still really liked it, though. Really wholesome all around

Which means Disney did a great job making it more true to history.

Feel the same. At first it was weird not having a traditional antagonist or an action packed climax, but you learn to appreciate what its all about.

I think that tells a much better story than underaged teen escapes murder and marries first boy she ever met.

eh

coming out of the darkest depths is better than realizing you were just born into a gifted family.

It was the same for me. Watched it on Disney+ and thought it was alright. The longer I thought about it, the more it grew on me. Now I really like it.
