little mermaid part deux?
written by rob on 03/18/08

hold the phone, do you mean to tell me they’ve made the little mermaid 2?

wait a second. back up. don’t tell me that the single greatest mermaid related movie has been sullied with a sequel. oh disney, you just come up with new ways for me to hate you every day. don’t you? please don’t tell me that ariel doesn’t turn into a mermaid again! tell me that she will not attempt to tie up loose ends. buddy hacket is dead, no scuttle no story. there is absolutely no reason for the little mermaid to return to the sea. none.

unless…..

let’s say that hypothetically ariel is transformed into a mermaid by some terrible spell put forth by an evil…clam. here’s where it gets interesting. have you seen the movie rain man? what if she became the tom cruise to say a long lost sister mermaid who was more akin to dustin hoffman’s character “ray.” her sister, claire (maybe clara) is a prodigy but can’t make simple human connections. ariel has no time for this sister of hers, as she is too busy with her new husband, family, legs, and high paying job. (she’s big in advertising.) her sister clara (kate maybe?) is a burden but only she knows the spell that can return ariel to human form but ariel can’t seem to get it out of her, try as she might.

this is a story of sisters, compassion and learning, also: the new sidekick includes a squid named jimmy. he has a wacky irish accent! it’s fun, it’s touching, it’s under the sea, it can’t miss. it’s the only logical sequel to a movie about a girl/fish (mammal?)

    Dear God. Ariel is back. And this time… its personal. Kill Ursala Vol. 1 & 2.

    oh, and Andy, you mean that you gave Ariel your pants to rapair, and, not being a great tailor, stiched them a little too much, resulting in tighter pants right?

    when all these disney sequels started coming out, do you think walt disney tried to kill himself in heaven?

  5. Andyoyo Mar 20

    Walt Disney went to hell, mainly from the fact that he made that monstrous thing ‘Goofy’ :)

  6. HexenDarkside Mar 20

    Goofy is way monstorous in my reality.

  7. geoffrey Mar 21

    what’s so monstrous about lovable ol’ goofy? the fact that he’s so funny and charming?
