DID YOU KNOW:
The Little Mermaid was written as a love letter by Hans Christian Anderson to Edvard Collin. Anderson, upon hearing of Collin’s engagement to a young woman, proclaimed his love to him. He told him ”I long for you as though you were a beautiful Calabrian girl.” Edvard Collin turned Anderson down, disgusted. Anderson then wrote The Little Mermaid to symbolize his inability to have Collin just as a mermaid cannot be with a human. He sent it to Collin in 1936 and it goes down in history as one of the most profound love letters ever written.
Most scholars and psychoanalysts concluded that Anderson was bisexual; however, he never acted upon his homosexual drives.
The Little Mermaid, as it was originally written, did not have a happy ending.

#I imagine this scene as Thor tricking Loki by telling him they’re going to Disney World #so he’s all excited screaming I’M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD #and then Thor is like lol Loki #you killed like a 1000 people and ruined the entire city of New York #I’m taking your ass back to Asgard to be tried

I am loving hearing about everyone's nostalgic experiences with the film.
I agree! and about this film in particular on my part! my friends at school have lacked the opportunity to watch it when they were younger, it’s a sad thing :( |
sherlockedupabroad started following you
thank you! :)
I am showing my age a bit but here is a fun Jess fact:
Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective came out the year I was born.
It is the first movie that I considered my favorite. In 1994 when we moved, the VHS grew mold and was ruined. Christmas 2002, the DVD was under the Christmas Tree. I cried when I watched it. It brought back so many memories of me and my best friend playing the roles of Basil and Dawson.
Sherlock Holmes has a very special place in my heart. Always will. And I will always watch an adaptation.
reblogging because The Great Mouse Detective was my favorite movie when I was a kid too. I still have the VHS, and I still remember Fidget scared the life out of me every time I watched it but I still rewatched it almost every week. I think I can easily say now that I was actually pretty obsessed! ( My dad says I did the same to the Alice in Wonderland tape we had, bad memory on my end though)
ah nostalgic feelings.
