i still don't know what to write about last nite. it will probably hit me tonite.
anyway, i just wanted to write about something that i've been wanting to put on this blog in a long time, its not really that deep.
all i want to really say is that the Disney channel is weak. And believe me, i like children's shows, but theirs suck. Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network kick their butt. Which is kind of sad, considering Disney used to be the source of all things kiddie. Well they still rule in the movie business (at least at the box office) I haven't seen the recent ones.
Digression (the rule of bigness)
Disney made the Little Mermaid. Which was a smash it. and critically, in my opinion, was good for kids too.
Disney made Beauty and the Beast. Which was bigger than Mermaid. But I thought the story had more holes.
Then we had the Lion King. Which was the pinnacle of these kinds of formula things. the most buzz, the most money, the most fans. but the weakest of the 3. I consider this the favorite of the late adapters. Oh well, I might be part of the late adapter groups when it comes to music anyway. must be my anti-rebellious ways =)
