Disney WISH (The movie) & American Girl LIVE

 

Yesterday mommy took me to see WISH the new Disney Movie.

A love letter to classic Disney animation, this offers a sweet balance of traditional themes and child-like hope. Disney's Wish is an enjoyable, festive celebration of Disney magic and history. It's a cute film with good songs, music, and a lovely, unique visual aesthetic. Chris Pine makes for a great oily villain.

It's not far into the movie in which Wish makes it clear that King Magnifico is a liar and an egomaniac who does not have the common people's interests at heart, despite basing his entire existence on being their savior. But because so many have already bought into Magnifico (i.e. given him their wish), they refuse to see that they are being manipulated.

We also had time to get the holiday tree together! Isn't it pretty? I took Samantha, my "Truly Me" (and FIRST American Girl dolll) with me. That's a brand new (retro) AG outfit..

We are going to two shows today:

Into the Burrow: A Peter Rabbit™ Tale at the Atlanta Symphony Hall.
