My Favorite Disney Classic: Alice In Wonderland
I know too many people who dislike this movie, but I am in love with it. I love how weird it is, I love the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts, the White Rabbit, and all the other odd character's Alice meets a long the way. I also like the riddle, "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" Have you always wondered the answer? Well here it is: "Poe wrote on both of them." Get it?! Anyway, this is my favorite classic because the music is fantastic, the characters are so freaking weird but I love them, and the color in it. I know that sounds weird, but I seriously love all the different colors, like the Cheshire cat is pink and purplish, the Mad Hatter is known for his green hat, and of course the queen of hearts needs her RED roses. The one word I would use for this movie is, "Curiouser and Curiouser."

My Favorite Disney Villain: Maleficent
As much as I love Ursula, Scar, Captain Hook, The Evil Queen, The Queen of Hearts, Dr. Facilier and many more there is only one true evil antagonist--Maleficent. All of the villains I mentioned previously have some agenda. For Ursula it was to get Ariel's soul, for Scar it's power, for Captain Hook it's power, The Evil Queen is power, The Queen of Heart's is power, and Dr. Facilier is money. As for Maleficent it's pure evil. She does not want a throne or money, she wants the death of Aurora. She wants to hurt the people around her for no clear or sound reason and she will do everything and anything to achieve it. She loses Aurora for a while, but when she finds her she doesn't hesitate going through with her plans to put a curse on the Princess and put the entire kingdom into a long deep sleep.
I read recently that a movie will be coming out in 2014 called "Maleficent." At first I was excited, and then I read that Angelina Jolie will be playing my favorite evil witch and my excitement level left. I'm hoping that when this movie does in fact come to theaters that Jolie will not take any of the wickedness away from Maleficent. I will say that I always thought Maleficent was beautiful and that Jolie will at least have that going for her. Maleficent does not sing, she does not show any weakness, and that is why she is my favorite villain--because she is the true definition of an evil person. Plus her costume is pretty bad ass.
