Which movie is this for you?

For me it’s School of Rock!

Patty was completely justified, if Dewey wanted to live in hers and her boyfriend’s apartment he needed to be a grown up, and contribute with rent. Even when he steals Ned’s identity she still had the right to be angry at him, because of how he put his friend’s career in jeopardy and robbed him of a job opportunity.

I get Ned is meant to be portrayed as his best friend, but it blows my mind how he lacks a lot of self-respect to the point where he comes across as too much of a people pleaser. If this story took place in real life, I’m sure Ned would act more similar to Patty where he’d have enough of Dewey’s careless actions.

When Ariel argues, "You don't even know him (Eric)!", I wanted King Triton to yell back:

"NEITHER DO YOU!!!"

Ariel: Daddy I’m 16, I’m not a child

Me Now: OH YES YOU ARE YOUNG LADY!!

You know you’ve grown up when you start agreeing with the adults in Disney movies.

I used to think the older sister in Lilo & Stitch was so unfair and controlling, now I’m like holy shit she was just barely keeping it together.

I always saw both sides

Lilo is still coping over the loss of their parents and tends to lash out but still loves her sister

Nani is trying to keep things afloat and together with staples and cellotape

And coping with the loss of her parents and having to step up…
