@catwing I don’t know if Snow White was love at first sight, like at first sight, or flirtation at first sight. It could have been any of the above. 😛 But they did like each other very much, and she sent a dove to give him a kiss, so I don’t think it too weird that he kissed her to wake her up later.

@seekjustice I count “first sight” as first conversation or so. You can tell millions about a person’s personality from the way they dress, stand, and walk, and you can tell some about their beliefs and morals from the location you find them.
…honestly, if a guy came up to me and sang me a song like Phillip and Florian did, I’d have a pretty…[Read more]

@seekjustice I dislike Disney because most of their films revolve around magic, showing magic on the “good side” and getting kids to believe there is such a thing as good magic. For that reason, Snow White is my favorite Disney princess film, because it shows magic as completely evil, and none on the good side.
As for Mulan, I usually run,…[Read more]

@alia I think people nowadays (including myself) are too worried about finding the “perfect” match to ever be willing to chance love at first sight. I think it used to happen a lot more than it does now, because people were willing to take risks and know they could love each other in spite of faults, rather than needing someone without faults…[Read more]

@seekjustice Copy @alia‘s answer, and add that Cinderella’s figure and face indicate that she is at least eighteen years old, a legal adult, and while that may not be moral grounds for disobedience, it is legal. Then, you also have the fact that Lady Tremain never adopted Cinderella (probably not legally, and certainly not into her heart,) and…[Read more]

@seekjustice Warning: Rant ahead. 😛
I get so annoyed when people put up those memes like the ones about Snow White and Sleeping Beauty, like “finds dead body in the woods; Kisses it.” I mean, it’s like those people forgot the whole plot of the movie! Both of those princes had already met and fallen in love with the girls, and the girls as w…[Read more]

Great! How’s poor Bathshua now? Is she still miserable?
Yes, I’m a fan of Disney. Not as much as I once was but I still like many of the classics. So what is the conclusion? 😛

@seekjustice I am extremely proud of myself. Today, (so far,) I wrote 1236 words with one hand!! 😛 Daughter of Judas is growing despite all the vain efforts of that villain, Poison Ivy! 😛 😛

@alia So exciting! 😀 😀 😀 I’m sure you’ll enjoy it, Where are you seeing it?
@catwing Goats?! You got goats?!!! Those absolutely wonderful, amazingly adorable, and perfectly terrific creatures? They’re my favorite animals! We had pygmies for a long time and their babies were the cutest, most adorable things ever!! (whoops! I used “adora…[Read more]

Hey sorry for not seeing this until now but I’m praying for you and your friend’s family.
My situation is not the same as yours but I recently had a major depressive episode myself so I kind of know how you feel. I have been feeling as though I am unable to handle anything; my work, my writing, my relationships with other people. I just…[Read more]

@seekjustice Not by a long shot!!!! 😛 I was just using that as an example. Actually the most noticeable inaccuracy is that the real newsboys’ average age was probably around ten or twelve, so the sixteen- to twenty-year-old guys seem quite strange.
…but they’re good dancers! 😛

Haha. Don’t worry. It’s not just the parents. I don’t think any of my characters enjoy being written by me. 😅

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
All right 🙂
But as my story explicitly takes place in a fictional version of historical Korea and not Joseon, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje or any of the real Korean kingdoms, does that make any historical inaccuracies OK? 😛
Yes, I am a parent-murderer. Is it that shocking? I told you that my WIPÂ isn’t a romantic comedy.…[Read more]

@seekjustice Was that during a performance, or was that when she was alone with her friends? Because if it was the former, I completely agree, but if the latter, I don’t care a bit. 😛

@valtmy Haha! 😛 Don’t worry, I don’t think I will. But yeah, that’s me. I get so horribly annoyed if the actors say a slang word that wasn’t invented yet, (talking about Newsies, @seekjustice ) if the skirts are two inches too short or too long, (can’t always tell, except for a few specific periods) or especially if the characters act like m…[Read more]

@seekjustice tagging issues. I’m having them too. See above if you haven’t. 😉

Oh dear. I hope you will never read up on Korean history else you will find all sorts of historical inaccuracies when you beta read my WIP. 😛
It’s OK. You still have a far lower parent body count compared to me. 😛

@seekjustive Oh, I don’t know. I thought of a couple when writing that, but my brain is mixed up now and I can only remember one:
Rose Marie (1936) Is a musical about an opera singer who goes to the wilds of Canada in search of her brother. A huge climax near the end of the film involves her having a mental breakdown during an opera p…[Read more]
