The Scariest Story Ever: A Mickey Mouse Halloween Spooktacular

     
      Mickey's Halloween Spooktacular is a charming and funny Halloween special featuring Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy as well as Huey, Duey, and Louie, and some mouse kids who I presume are relatives of Mickey.

    It's a familiar formula,  a larger framework story containing three short stories. They are amusing, and Mickey's shift from over-the-top glee at trying to spook the children to his extreme frustration at failing to tell a scary story is a highlight, and I found it very amusing. But overall I prefer the more classic Disney cartoons like Lonesome Ghosts or Trick or Treat.

   It's mostly family-friendly and appropriate for its intended child audience.  But (Don't read the next part if you don't want spoilers) some thematic elements in the third short might seem quite disturbing for a children's show if you think too much about it as it involves a witch that makes pies out of naughty children. 

    It's good, I liked it, but not great. It's  B+ tier in my opinion and 8.5.

Disney's Lady and the Tramp Review

     This beautiful and charming film,  Lady and the Tramp, is yet another absolute masterpiece.     In my opinion this might be the best dog-centric animated film of all time and is an amazingly fun and endearing time with charming characters especially the leads, the adorable and sweet Lady and the rambunctious yet good-hearted Tramp.      The spaghetti/ Bella Nota segment deserves special mention as it's absolutely iconic and heartwarming.       It is mostly family-friendly but there is a scene that briefly implies the death of a dog in the pound as one of the characters says the dog "is taking the long walk" which might be too upsetting to tender-hearted young children.       Overall,  this is one of Disney's most adorable,  heartwarming,  and frankly best films so far and another 10 out of 10.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarves Review

       Disney's original animated film Snow White is a stunning masterpiece, whimsical and fun, but with its share of darker moments. It is a timeless classic that is as enjoyable today as it was in 1937 when it first released in theaters. The dwarves are fun and funny and oozing with music and charm. Snow White is charming, sweet, and wholesome. It is movie for all ages young and old. I would give it 10 out of 10.

Revised Tier List of Animated Disney Films from 1937 to 1968

   I added S+ Tier and I am redoing the original Tier list for 1937-1968. Also have changed the score on some films. S+ Pinnochio 10 Sleeping Beauty 10 Jungle Book 10 Lady and the Tramp 10 Bambi 10-I think this was in a slightly lower position last time. Its a masterpiece though in every way and one of Disney's most heartwarming stories. 101 Dalmatians 10 Cinderella 10 Peter Pan 10-I think I ranked this very slightly higher last time. I love it and still think its S+ Tier but the prejudice against native Americans is very offensive and noticeable.  Snow White 10 Fantasia 10-rank it higher than last time, its a 10 and S+. Yes some viewers won't like it but its an absolute masterpiece in quality. S tier Alice in Wonderland-10 ranking it higher. Yeah its not the most cohesive story but its so fun and unique,  I love it too much for it to be less than 10 and an S tier film A tier Dumbo-9.5 I think this is slightly higher than last time. I hate the racism but I love the h...
