Okay, so, I'm

Okay, so, I'm at it again! New thing no one else has heard of, but....

Has anyone seen the old classic Disney films starring Haley Mills? I love them! That Darn Cat, Moon Spinners (my personal fave), In Search of the Castaways, Summer Magic (I also love), The Parent Trap, and Pollyanna! I simply ADORE those movies! Watch them with my mom!

Anyone else?

I love Pollyanna! And we have The Parent Trap, but that's all.

You should totally see Summer Magic! It is one of the sweetest movies I have ever seen! And Moonspinners is really action packed! The latter is a rather clique romance, and Haley Mills' character can be SUPREMELY dumb through a lot of it, but it's still good!

I, too, love Pollyanna! I read the book, which was good, and my mom read the sequel. DO NOT READ POLLYANNA GROWS UP! That's the sequel, and my mom said it was AWFUL! It's like the author hated the way she'd made Pollyanna at first, then completely twisted her! The book was dark, had a lot of inappropriate conduct, and was overall really really bad! So my mom has told me. She won't let me read it, not that I would want to.

But anyway, the movies are GREAT! I simply love them! Definitely try to find them!

I like Pollyanna and The Parent Trap. Another good Disney movie is Swiss Family Robinson.

Oh my goodness I LOVE Swiss Family Robinson! One of the best movies ever made! I just love old movies! Has anyone else seen The Apple Dumpling Gang? I saw Old Yeller once, and cried SO HARD!!! Escape to Witch Mountain! I love that one! There's a new version called Race to Witch Mountain with Anna Sophia Robb, but the first is really good! Really, there's little better than the old live-action Disney movies!

I've seen the Lindsey Lohan one. Note, I am NOT a Lohan fan, but I liked the way that one went better. The plot line went better, though I liked the details better in the Haley Mills one, if that makes any sense. It flowed better with Lohan, but the songs, scenes, and the simple romance of the first, make it better in that sense for me. Argh. Still didn't make much sense, but there you go.

I've seen both Parent Trap movies and I loved them both. I think I liked the one with Lindsay Lohan a little more, though...

I really liked Swiss Family Robinson.  Pollyanna was all right.

@ Elizabeth; I agree, I like that one a tad more, though I love the Haley Mills/Haley Mills duet scene!

I have not watched any of these movies, although I could tell you all about them and their plots.   I want to watch all of them, especially Summer Magic.

 

Now I'm gonna have Feminity stuck in my head all night.  You must walk feminine...

Definetely! I think my favorite might be Summer Magic after all. I love the Feminine scene! The whole thing is great, and a rather funny romance. I loved Haley Mills sing Castaway in In Search of the Castaways.

Now that you mentioned In Search of the Castaways, I will have Enjoy It stuck in my head all night, lol.

Oh gosh! I had that stuck in my head, and now sing it whenever I need to look on the bright side of things.

I have seen the Haley Mills Parent Trap and Pollyanna. I really like Pollyanna, she is so sweet! You should see it.

Yeah! She is! And really, I don't see many other people playing Pollyanna as well. But seriously, check out Summer Magic and Moonspinners! They're really good!
