Hey guys! Sooo... I love this blog and I really miss writing here. That being said... I think I'm going to expand this blog to be more than just Disney Posts. I am still very inspired by my love of Disney... but I do have some other loves that I feel like might fit on this blog a little bit better than my other blog.
I might talk about Harry Potter on here... I think I'm going to talk about my Nintendo Switch games and Animal Crossing New Horizons here because I've been LOVING that game right now. I might focus a little bit on the "cozy" aspect of this blog too... maybe I'll talk about some books and tv shows that aren't just Disney related. I'm not quite sure!
So I've got some ideas on things to post here- I still think I'll post on my other blog and I think I'll do more reviews on that blog... but especially now I want to focus on things that are cozy and things that just make me happy and things I think are magical.
I hope you guys are excited! I'm excited about this!
TTFN!

The Cozy Princess Reviews: Toy Story 4 (SPOILERS)
Okay guys... I'm going to be as fair as possible with my Toy Story 4 Review... I can't say I didn't enjoy it because honestly it is a really good movie... it looked beautiful, it was really funny and I loved all the new characters... I just did not love the ending of it. I'm going to spoil this movie right after this sentence so... I recommend go seeing it- so go see it then come back and read the rest of the review...
I am having a hard time accepting the ending of this movie and mainly 2 things: A) Woody left Buzz and all the other toys B) Bonnie really didn't care about Woody all that much.
I can kind of understand Woody not being Bonnie's favorite toy. She's a little girl- she's more interested in Jessie. Plus Woody is a secondhand toy- Bonnie had already had a lot of toys before Andy gave her Woody. Woody got that he wasn't Bonnie's favorite... but he still really cared about Bonnie- but he had to move on so he stayed with Bo Peep instead of going back with Bonnie... so he moved on... I can get that.
And I can understand why these things happened... it makes sense... It's just not as good a way to end it as Toy Story 3 was.
Other than those critiques... which are pretty big- this movie is pretty great overall! It is such a funny movie! The new characters were all pretty funny. Forky, Ducky and Bunny all super super funny. They really made great additions to the franchise. They could have definitely made Forky a more emotional character like Bing Bong- but I'm glad they just kept him as a funny character... it made it a nice, lighthearted movie... which is nice.
I also like that there wasn't really a villain. I thought Lotso was too much of a bad guy in Toy Story 3 and it just made me want a break from the VERY EVIL villains. Gabby Gabby was a nice toy that really just wanted a kid. It really made Woody a more valiant hero that he helped her.
It was nice to see how well Woody and Bo worked together at the beginning of the movie with Operation Pull Toy. It was nice to see them together again after not having Bo Peep in a movie- and we see how much Woody loves her. He has a selfish moment where he thinks about leaving Andy and going with Bo Peep... and it's a hard decision he still clearly thinks about and probably regrets. It was a really nice moment to set the movie and... it was really sweet.
Also great soundtrack by Randy Newman. The Ballad of a Lonesome Cowboy was great and "I Won't Let You Throw Yourself Away" was SOOO funny. With Forky trying to throw himself out... I love Randy Newman's very literal songs throughout the franchise. They did a great job with the soundtrack.
I think that is everything I need to say about this movie... hope you guys like it!
TTFN!

Movie Monday: Ralph Breaks The Internet
So every other week I'm going to watch a Disney movie and talk about it on this blog... and obviously I needed to start off with the movie that inspired this blog's name: Ralph Breaks The Internet! I know it's kind of strange to start these movie Monday's with a sequel... but this seemed the best way to start off this series of posts.
This movie is a very fun and funny sequel to Wreck It Ralph... and I think I like this one better. I like that this is more about Vanellope... and I really love all of the easter eggs and cameos from other Disney Characters... especially the cozy princesses.
One thing I noticed on the second viewing of this movie... IS THIS A MARVEL MOVIE? Sure we see Iron Man and Groot, but we also see Stan Lee and there are 2 post credits scenes... so that sounds like a Marvel Movie to me! Where were Ralph and Vanellope in the Infinity War?
It also does feel like an Infinity War level crossover with the Disney Princesses. This is the first feature length theatrical Disney Movie to include this many characters together... and the Princesses end up saving Ralph at the end... so that's super cool too.
The other thing I like about this movie is that the hero is the villain! Ralph started the virus based on his insecurities... but he saved himself and the internet at the end by addressing those insecurities and letting go. It was a good character arc for Ralph.
Vanellope's Princess song is also one of my favorite moments... especially the pop version of it at the end. It just really makes me laugh. I love it.
I also really liked the new characters. Knowsmore, Shank, Yess, The Pop Ups... all super funny and they were all great additions to this movie. The bad part about this however is that some of the characters from the original, like Felix and Calhoun- were almost non existant in the movie. They adopt the racers and then they check back in on the gang at the end for a joke... and that is it. I loved the new characters... but the old ones felt pushed out.
So this is one of my favorite recent disney movies... it's a really fun one and I had a great time seeing it in theaters and on this second viewing right now.
TTFN!

Welcome To The Cozy Princess!
Hey everyone! My name is Shannon. I'm a 27 year old blogger and major Disney fan!
I've loved Disney since I was a kid- and although I live in New Jersey and have not been to the parks in a very long time... I like following all the themepark youtube videos and I love trying to bring a little bit of Disney Magic into my everyday life.
This idea came from my wonderful boyfriend, Aspen! I was talking about writing on one of my other blogs (I have 2 Scribbles About Beauty and The Daily Something) and how happy I am sitting at my desk with all of my disney themed things and he said "I'm glad your happy. You should start a Disney Blog." And I was like "THAT'S A GREAT IDEA I SHOULD START A DISNEY BLOG!"
So what will this blog be about? Disney... obviously! Lol. I'll probably have some movie reviews, maybe some Disney Store Hauls... maybe I'll even do some DIY's and Disney Bounds. I kind of just want this to be any sort of way that I can bring a little bit of magic into my life... and the lives of my readers. I might post some Non Disney things that I'm a fan of too here if I think it's something magical that might belong here. I'm not really sure! This idea just came about a little over an hour ago!
I'm not sure how often I'll post... but I'd like to have something for you guys to read often!
TTFN!
