Moana is such a nice Disney film!

My DS loves it so I've now seen it a million times, it's such a nice story! The relationship with her grandma makes me feel teary 😅

Any other lovely films like that?

I love it too! Tangled is a good one.

Icedlatte · 26/12/2019 18:47

Have you watched wall-e? It's surprisingly lovely

BloodyCats · 26/12/2019 18:48

Love Wall E
I love most of the Pixar ones, not too fussed about Disney only films though.

Interested in this thread?

I love it! Brave is good too.

Biscusting · 26/12/2019 18:52

Coco also brilliant!

I also loved frozen when I first came out. I did the whole eye roll at the Disney princess thing, and awaited the prince to rescue the princess. But no! The sisters love for each other safes the day and my faith in Disney

We watched it today. I love it and have been encouraging my toddler daughter to love it too. She is very much a fan now and has even been acting bits out with her toys! I just love the whole message and very much agree with the Grandma relationship- especially when she come back to her to support her.

Legoandloldolls · 26/12/2019 18:59

I love coco, it makes me cry! God knows why as never knew any of my grandparents and my kids GP couldn't be less invested either. So no ideas about that kind of relationship myself

megletthesecond · 26/12/2019 19:00

Yes. I've not enjoyed a Disney film for years until I saw Moana.

doadeer · 26/12/2019 19:00

And when she puts her head against te fiti! It's so moving!! 😂 I'm such a sop

I agree. i nearly didn't watch it. Loathe the modern 'Princessy' ones. Yes also loved Coco.

Biscusting · 26/12/2019 20:12

When IT first came out. I have not come out, no need 😳😄

Biscusting · 26/12/2019 20:13

Heyhey is the best bit in Moana

Laiste · 26/12/2019 20:23

Love Moana. It always makes me think of summer because we first sat and watched it while fanning little DD4, rolling about in just her nappy when it was BOILING HOT ... summer 2017?

userabcname · 26/12/2019 20:46

I love Moana too! I also like Tangled.

TheCountessatHotelCortez · 27/12/2019 08:22

Moana is ok. Mulan will always be my favourite As it’s not your typical princess film. Saying that I always loved sleeping beauty and I am slightly obsessed with frozen 2 at the moment, it is amazing!

Glitterkitten24 · 27/12/2019 08:25

Aw I had a small weep at Moana when the gran dies and her spirit is in the stingrays, but admittedly I am a wet blanket and cry at everything!

It’s a lovely film.

I love Brave too.

Pinkbonbon · 27/12/2019 08:33

My only gripe with moana is that that big (demigod?) sorta dude is portrayed as being utterly up his own arse but also, a goodie in the end. I hate narcissistic sorts being portrayed as having good hearts deep down. Because instead of spotting a self promoting dick for what they really are (nasty AF), it encourages us to think 'oh they act like a dick but they'd have my back when it counts' ect...

But that's my own shoulder chip tbf. It's a fun film. Prefer frozen though as far as newer Disneys go because at least that Elsa lass knows a con artist when she sees one.

CanoeDoYouThinkYouAre · 27/12/2019 10:59

I saw Coco shortly after losing my last remaining grandparent.
Big mistake! Sobbed my eyes out.

Luckily we weren't at the cinema or I'd have been escorted out.
Beautiful film but a little too soon for me.

Wishihadanalgorithm · 27/12/2019 13:05

I love the wave of new style Disney films. The music in Tangled, Moana and obviously Frozen is just fabulous. Moana makes me well-up every time. I don’t even know why but I love the music and the story.

thingamijig1 · 27/12/2019 13:11

Love moana, frozen 1 and 2 and Wall e
Tangled pretty good too.

ParadiseLaundry · 27/12/2019 13:37

DS watched Moana for the first time on Xmas day and hasn't wanted to watch anything since Grinhe's just asked for it for the third time today. I would happily allow it but DH is having none of it! The songs are amazing!

ParadiseLaundry · 27/12/2019 13:38

Whoops posted too soon. I love him watching things which strong female leads. He was obsessed with Frozen before Xmas which I loved too.
