Finding Nemo

The barracuda scares me twice as badly as any of Disney's vicious bad guys ever have. *shudder*

I saw this movie on the first day it came out, and I'll always remember it because of the woman and her daughter who were sitting next to me. It was the first showing, and the woman sitting next to me was holding this absolutely adorable little year-old blond girl in her lap. We started talking, and the little girl was totally quiet until she started digging in her mom's bag. Her mother reached in and pulled out a Nemo doll and a Marlin doll. I nearly keeled over from the cute, especially when the little girl held onto the dolls and stared at the screen in rapt, overjoyed infatuation for the rest of the movie. I think I should get an award for not having grabbed the kid and made a run for it. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

I want a T-shirt that says, "Sandy Plankton is God," just to see if anybody gets the joke.

You know what? I take back what I said about the barracuda being the scariest thing in this movie. That diver appearing out of nowhere scares the bejesus out of me.

*happy sighs* This is the only movie allowed to beat Lost in Translation for Best Comedy or Musical. That's all there is to it.

Dory! *squees*

I want to go to the twelve-step program for sharks. That is all.

The more I watch Dory, the more I think Ellen Degeneres should win something for voicing her. I mean, tell me you've been half as amused by most of the non-animated performances this year.

I think the fact Allison Janney voices Peach makes me love them both even more.

Darla is obviously a popular name for evil satanic spawn.

There should be an entire movie about what Dory dreams. It'd be hilaaaaaarious.

Okay, you know what? Somewhere between the barracuda, the diver, and the angler fish, my nightmares need no more fodder. Yeah, like haunting Ogrish wasn't already giving them quite enough fuel to work with.

"It'll be a piece of kelp." *snerk* I never even noticed that before.

Is there something wrong with me if I think the sequence in the whale's mouth is the most realistically animated?

I also think it's not too much to ask for a "Curse you, AquaScum!" T-shirt.

It's wrong I nearly bought a bowl of shrimp scampi to eat during this movie, right?

I don't get it.

Somewhere in the movie Nemo talks to his schoolfriends and one of them keeps going on and on about "Sandy Plankton said this" and "Sandy Plankton said tha".

remind me which one's the barracuda? I can't tell one fish from another o_O

Something that has nothing to do with any of that other than finding nemo:

The Dairy Queen in my town has a fish tank. There is a clown fish and a whatever-kind-of-fish Dory is in the tank.

...they claimed they didn't do it on purpose. They lie.
