I Wish this movie was good.

Celebrating 100 years of Disney magic and the best they could do was beat you over the head with a half-dozen obvious references to better movies.

20 years ago this would have been a straight to video release and not one of the good ones.

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Wish’: 1. Gaston officially has a rival for the sexiest Disney villain. 2. My first major thought is how I don’t understand the disdain this film has been getting. This was a solid Disney story. A touching standalone fairytale, with great characters, gorgeous animation, and those signature Disney tunes. Yeah, there were a lot of Easter eggs. I loved ‘em. This is clearly a love letter to Disney history, to the man himself, and I was moved by it. 3. “Knowing What I Know Now” is a certified bop. And I was giving ALL the snaps when [spoiler]the queen[/spoiler] joined in.

Pretty forgettable and a lot of things just felt forced. Liked the credits though.
