Happy tears

Every time I see those Disney commercials where the parents are surprising their kids with a trip to Disneyland/Disneyworld, I tear up.  I'm such a sap.

Re: Happy tears

  • I LOVE those commercials too. I totally want to do this when we have kids. "How about if we go to Disney World today? Like, we're leaving in a few hours." Awesome.
  • I cry because I'm not the one going to Disney World.

  • I teared up too when I saw that commercial last night. I'm glad I'm not alone.

    Hallmark, Oreo and some random car all have certain commercials that have the power to randomly make me teary eyed so I shouldn't be surprised about adding Disney to the list.

    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz

    I actually know someone who did this a couple of months ago! That's totally awesome. I would also enjoy someone whisking me away on a weekend trip. To Disney or anywhere.

    Although the control freak part of me just had a seizure at the idea of someone else packing for me. WHAT IF THEY GRAB THE WRONG HAIR GOOP.

  • The other morning Maggie was watching the Princess and the Frog on Netflix. There's a scene where a character dies and I started crying. Mike asked what was wrong and I was embarrassed and said it was because of my mastitis hurting.

  • I cry every time I watch Monsters Inc. Every time. Lorne teases me.

  • I don't think there is a Disney movie I've seen that hasn't made me cry or at least get choked up. Why do they always have to kill off a parent or something like that?

    Is it when Sully puts Boo back in her room and she's trying to show him all her toys and he has to go? Because I don't cry at all then. Certainly not every time.

    Kristen -- I cried at that part too even though I thought the movie itself was stupid.

    The part where the insect (I forget what kind it is) dies and then becomes a star in the sky with his true love?! I BAWLED at that part.

  • Yes! I wept.
    I also teared up this morning while Maggie was watching Beauty and the Beast (THE BEEEEAST!!! as she calls it). Sappy McSapperson.

    Groomz told me that the B&TB musical couldn't accurately depict the wolf attack scene so instead the beast is illiterate and Belle teaches him how to read.

    I think I would probably laugh at that instead of crying.

    In the vein of your Dirty Dancing hallucinating scenes post the other day, in the extended version of B&TB there's a scene where Belle teaches Beast to read!!!!!!

    You just blew my mind, dude.

    MOO FUN FACT: My uncle played The Beast for a bit on Broadway while they were between Beasts.

  • my brother and SIL surprised my nieces with a trip to Disney this past January.  Their oldest's b-day is in the summer and they always have a pool party for her, the youngest's b-day is in January and it kind of sucks for her being right after Christmas and all so they wanted to do something special for her. 

    They told them they were driving them to school, but my brother had to stop at work first in Boston, they arrived at Logan airport and then gave my niece a birthday card with a recording "Happy birthday, A, you're going to Disney World".  They have a picture of them the moment they heard it and the look on their faces is awesome.

  • Is there a song called "Happy Birthday, i quit your job for you and we're going to travel the world for the next 5 years?"

  • Wasn't The Beast an adult prince before he was transformed into The Beast?  You'd think he would have learned to read during that time and wouldn't need Belle to teach him later.

    image
  • Yes HT. I find that a little incongruious as well.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • Princes don't have to know how to read.  They have servants to read things for them.  What do you think Cogsworth was for?

  • Dude, the movie version of B&TB I know totally has Belle teaching the Beast to read, during the "There Must Be Something There That Wasn't There Before." And I know I wasn't hallucinating.

    Or is this a joke that I'm not getting? 

  • The Youtube clip I just watched showes Belle and The Beast sitting down in front of the fire with a book at the end of the song, but I don't think it's clear that she's teaching him to read.  Then it cuts away to Cogsworth, Lumiere, Mrs. Potts, Chip, and the slutty feather duster.

  • I honestly have no idea. There is a scene in the extended version where belle talks to beast about reading that seemed new to me but I haven't seen the movie in 15 years easily. If this were Aladdin I would know.

    I always thought they were just going to sit and read a book together by the fire.
