1. Congrats on winning Fan of the Month! How does it feel?
Thanks! It feels amazing and very surprising. I never would have guessed I'd win.
2. What was the last Disney movie you watched in theaters? (animated or live action)
I haven't been to the theaters much recently. So, I think it was Toy Story 4 last summer.
3. Who is your favorite Disney character? (live action or animated, Pixar or Disney)
Scrooge McDuck <333
4. Which Disney owned franchise do you like more? (The Simpsons, Marvel, Star Wars, etc) Why?
Of all the franchises they own my favorite would probably be Mickey Mouse and Friends. I just find the characters very relatable. I also like that the stories aren’t all about romance, but more about the established relationships between the friends. And I especially love how it can be both funny and serious.
If you're talking about the ones they've purchased, it would definitely be Star Wars. I like most of the characters, and find a lot of them to be relatable. And I love the complexity of the stories.
5. How did you find fanpop and what made you join?
There was time when I was obsessed with Disney Villains. As you can tell by my username I was really into them when I joined. But, I happened to be surfing the internet, trying to find a group of DV fans, like myself, when I came across the Disney Villains club on Fanpop.
6. What is your favorite thing about your favorite princess?
What I love most about Snow White is her optimism. I tend to have a very pessimistic view, so it's encouraging for me to see her stay positive even during hard times.
7. Your favorite and why:
a. heroine
Minnie Mouse and Webby Vanderquack
Similar to why I love Snow White, I think both of them are wonderful role models without being Mary-Sues.
The fact that Minnie's a little shy and passive makes her relatable to me; since I, a lot times, have a hard time speaking up. I also love that she's a realistic heroine who isn't out to save everybody from the big bad.
Webby is such an underrated and unique character. She's such a sweet and cute little girl, who manages to defy the odds and save the day on many occasions.
b. hero
Scrooge McDuck
He's such an interesting and complex character. He may seem like a mean old miser, but he loves his family and friends more than anything. I love watching him fight to overcome his flaws, even if he does stumble some times. How can you not love him?
c. sidekick
Jar Jar Binks
An unpopular opinion I know, but I actually find him really funny. He's another character that I think is very underrated, although thankfully the hate seems to have died down recently. While I adore him in the prequels I think he's at his best in the Clone Wars. There he's had to save the day on a few occasions and not through clumsy luck. And he's shown maturing through the series. So I love watching him grow as a character to the point where he can preform rescues, despite being a dumb, klutz.
d. villain
Nute Gunray
Another Star Wars character I feel is quite underrated. One of the things I like about Nute is how unique he is among SW villains. So often when a Star Wars villain is made the mind set seems to be, "Just make it look cool and able to kick butt. Don't bother with a personality." I'm looking at you Boba Fett. But unlike say, the Sith or Bounty Hunters, Nute doesn't rely on wearing some flashy amour or wielding a lightsaber to get fans to buy his merch. Instead he's just a businessman, and spends most of his time talking, which lets you get to know him better.
But, what I really love about him is his backstory! For those of you who don't know Neimoidian larva are put in hive together where there isn't enough food, and are eventually forced to start eating each other. This teaches them survival of the fittest from birth. To me that add a lot of complexity to the whole species.
e. couple
Mickey and Minnie Mouse
I love that they are an established couple and their relationship isn't about them trying to get together. And I like how realistic a couple they are; with the occasional argument and disagreement, but nothing over the top for the sake of drama.
8. Who is your favorite voice actor?
Probably, Jim Cummings. I think it's amazing that he can do all those voices.
9. Is there an upcoming Disney movie or tv show you're looking forward to watching?
Hmm...None that I'm super excited about at the moment. But there are few that have me interested. I'm definitely intrigued by the upcoming Cruella movie. I’m also interested in some of the Marvel films, probably the one I'm most excited for is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
10. Do you have any Disney merch?
Yes! Tons of it. lol Everything from plushies, to action figures, to signed bobble-heads and trading cards.
Thanks! It feels amazing and very surprising. I never would have guessed I'd win.
