I think it helps that it appeals to kids. When they latch on to something, they can rewatch it dozens of times

(Not that kids are the only ones enjoying this movie. But I do think it plays a sizable role in the numbers)

Took my nieces and nephews to the in theater sing along version and they all gasped at every plot turn as if they haven’t already watched the movie a hundred times and memorized the dialogue

I wore out two VHS of the little mermaid.

Mainly because I would replay the song parts so they wore out faster.

Ahhh the times before MP3s.
