5 Disney Films That Should Become Live-Action

Heaven knows we don't need another Cinderella remake, Frozen is still too popular for its own good, and Lion King is too pure to be touched. However, there are still plenty of movies out there that could benefit from a live action remake.

1. Mulan:

I already know that this is in production, but it took long enough! Imagine the settings, the action scenes, the endless list of actors to choose from! Personally, I wonder what they plan to do with Mushu; hopefully they plan to keep him around and still have Eddie Murphy voice him, but we shall see.

2. Atlantis: The Lost Empire:

The original movie was a bit underrated, but it definitely wasn't one of Disney's better films. If any film could benefit from a live action remake, it would definitely be this one. The animation was already beautiful and the music was top-notch, but a little polishing to make it look less like a rough draft for what should have been an amazing movie couldn't hurt.

3. The Little Mermaid:

I want a live-action of the Little Mermaid where they stick to the original story! That's right, I want the original tragic story on the big screen simply because I feel it would be far more emotionally involving and people would be more drawn to the main character. Granted, Ariel is one of the more popular princesses and her movie is still talked about today, but what if it took a slightly darker tone? If you haven't read the original story, you're missing out!

4. Aladdin:

Mostly out of respect for the late Robin Williams, wouldn't it be cool if the movie from all from the point of view of the Genie? I want a story of how the Genie ended up inside the lamp, how he ended up in the cave of wonders, and how he acted upon Aladdin becoming his master. Throw a wicked Jafar in there and you've got the makings of a fantastic movie! And if Gary Oldman was casted as the new Jafar, I would have no complaints.

5. Pocahontas:

Personally, I want to see a more historically accurate version of this film. Yes, I want to see Pocahontas as a child without any romantic ties to anyone, but I still want some of the Disney magic to remain. If that means still having talking animals, a singing tree, or prancing through very colorful leaves while singing, so be it. Honestly, the story of a child stopping a low-key war between two rivaling cultures would be far more entertaining than a happy-ending Romeo and Juliet story.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
