Sleeping Beauty (1959)


Instant Comments:
1a: Hmm... beauty (Flora's gift). Song (Fauna's gift).
1a: If I were to guess... "grace" as a third? Personally I would treasure wisdom, health, and... okay I guess beauty is reasonable third. Well perhaps wealth is a common blessing as well.
1a: "You weren't welcome" (?) Would the queen not have been so upset if a more... diplomatic answer was given?
1a: Oh I forgot that the third wish was...
1a: "The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her. *But*... before the sun sets on her 16th birthday, she shall prick her finger - on the spindle of a spinning wheel - and DIE!" (Why her sixteeth birthday)
1a: Ha. Every cradle.
1a: "I Know You..." huh actually a good song
1a: Hehe the sliding candles.
1a: Oh no wands...
1a: I forgot how magic leaks.
1a: Oh no... I see.
1a: Lol. What a waste of 16 years. They could have had a celebration one day after her real birthday as a better alternative.
1a: She establishes that it's their fault
1b: Somewhat randomly restarted at the 53 minute mark, a little before the decision to put everyone to sleep
1b: Hehe. Paraphrase: set a trap for a peasant and catch a prince.
1b: Huh. He waves them along. I suppose he could have had a short "come on, this way" type of dialogue.
1b: Ooo. Turned to stone.
1b: Lol. The spell of thorns seems powerful and thick. yet somehow he makes hacking through it seem trivial.
1a: I missed the dragon fight. And the kiss. Hehe... I may have to rewatch some parts
1b: Huh. I was about to question Phillip's ability to kill such a powerful looking dragon. Soon after, it was the fairy that intervenes to send the sword flying into the dragon. Kind of lame.
1b: Prince Phillip doesn't respond to his father.
1b: Hehe, I think I saw this part (blue vs. pink) [someone pointed out that Aurora's dress (the one made for her is typically pink in artwork where it is blue for most of the movie, and others have explained this is to differentiate from Cinderella's assocation to an already blue dress]

Lightyear (2022)

Instanct Comments: Somewhat strange but sure ("this is that movie")
Slaps the name back on. Pretty cool
87.6% chance
To infinity and beyond.
Hehe blows the car bridge
A show of skill by Buzz
Time dilation... did they really not think about it? They sounded surprised
He looks funny outside his suit
Did people really get in an uproar on this simple kiss?
He definitely made it seem more simple.
62 years so if he ran approximately the same 4 year runs thats at most 15 runs plus 1 prior to getting sox. There is a strong possibility that some runs took up more.
Buzz Lightyear to star command come in star command.
This last trip took 22 years!
Hahaha bread meat bread
Hehe the pen

X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

20241008:
Today I was cleaning up my Watchlist on Disney+ and noticed this movie had some time left on it. I playe the movie and didn't recognize it. I eventually turned back the movie to look for where my notes left off and it coincides with a scene right before the point at which I resumed the movie. As such, my assume I never got around to finishing the movie.
Instant Comments:
1a: Really, I doubt that
1a: For a moment, because cars were being lifted, I thought Magneto was displaying his strength as a display of mutant ability. Instead, it turned out Jean was responsible for lifting the cars, which shows just how strong her mutant power was. And yet... she didn't seem that strong in the previous movie. [20230530: it is explained later]
1a: "Oh Charles, I like this one."
1a: How sad... (Warren feels ashamed of being a mutant)
1a: Lol WTF, first the past, then 10 years ago. Then the not so distant future...
1a: I forgot who she is, was she Kitty Pride? [Yes, Ellen Page]
1a: I recognize that spikey one is one of the actors in Lost... [Ken Leung]
1a: Only Magneto and Pyro are above class 3.
1a: Hehe, as a little girl, "when I get out of here, I'm going to kill you myself"
1a: Hehe a mutant that suppresses the xgene
1a: "How?" "I dont know."
1a: Why didn't she just clear the mist earlier... lol
1a: Huh. What happened to Scott?
1a: Xavier calls her class 5. Where di
1a: Oh Xavier created barriers... weakening her. And Xavier says the alternate personality is The Phoenix
1a: Strange. Men have longed to fly on their own, why would someone with that ability give that up... [ok so he refuses]
1a: How cold. "You're not one of us anymore" (can such a thing be permanent)
1a: Hehe. "I don't want to fix it"
1b: Had paused with 50 min remaining. Rewind a little.
1b: I still don't understand why Xavier blamed wolverine for anything ("I warned you")
1b: I see, "Jean is not well" "You sound just like her parents" (despite Xavier's prior stance, he's acting like a hypocrite)
1b: Wow I didn't remember Xavier passing away
1b: Magneto was sad for Xavier's loss
1b: Wolverine lets Rogue go
1b: Jean makes Magneto afraid...
1b: Magneto corrects Pyro about Xavier
1b: Not sure transporting the bridge makes sense... it seems like it would fall into the ocean without the support cables.
1b: "Pawns"
1b: Haha. Grow those back
1b: Wow, Kitty has some smarts.
1b: "Do we look like we need your help?"
1c: Resume at the 1hr25min mark.
1c: I remember seeing this scene where Wolverine approaches Jean Grey and has his flesh tearing off.
1c: Oh, I didn't remember that Rogue lost her powers. Also I thought the power loss was just temporary. Apparently when Magneto got stabbed earlier it was a permanent power loss? I would think that he does get his power back despite us being led to believe all these mutants lost their power. After all... it's Magneto and while I think this is the third movie in the series of X-Men movies, they would be sure to put in a way to lead to a fourth as a just in case.
1c: Yep. Okay. There we go.
Post-Credits:
1c: Moira hears Xavier's voice
