8 Reasons Why "Lilo and Stitch" Is The Best Disney Movie Of All Time
Amazon

Disney movies are just the best. They have great animation, lovable characters, teach good lessons and are usually pretty funny and witty, and of course, they remind us of our childhood. It's always hard to pick a favorite Disney movie because they're all just too good, but the one that has stuck with me my whole life is "Lilo & Stitch." I know it's a "kid" movie, but I don't care, because in my opinion it's pretty much perfect. I'm sitting here with my Stitch tattoo on my wrist, wearing my Lilo and Stitch t-shirt, surrounded by my countless Stitch stuffed animals, clothes, bags, makeup brushes, phone case...I admit I'm a little obsessed, but here's why I love this movie sooo much.

1. The cutest main characters EVER.

If you don't think that a chubby little girl in a Hawaiian dress and a tiny blue alien are the cutest pair of best friends you've ever seen, I don't like you.

2. The unconventional family.

A lot of movies and TV shows make their characters way too perfect, and it can make the show hard to relate to and give people unrealistic expectations. In Lilo and Stitch, the sisters get into a screaming match in the first half hour of the movie. Relatable.

3. Nani in general.

Lilo's older sister Nani is praised a lot for being one of the only Disney women to not have a totally unrealistically skinny body, but still look amazing and be confident. She's also total sister goals, from when she gets Lilo a dog, then fights to keep her when the social worker visits, and then that heartbreaking scene in the hammock...I'm tearing up thinking about it.

4. Lilo is a badass.

It's the truth. Poor Lilo is imperfect and gets bullied quite a bit by Myrtle and her squad, but she totally stands up for herself. And it's kind of awesome and hilarious at the same time. She's like five but already confidence goals.

5. The Elvis references.

I will never get sick of that "Burning Love" montage.

6. The vacation vibe.

Who would've thought that Hawaii would be the perfect setting for a Disney movie about aliens? I don't even know why, but it works. Every time I watch this movie I feel like I'm going on vacation. And don't even get me started on how much I love "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride."

7. The friendship between Lilo and Stitch.

One of the overarching messages in this movie is that even if you feel like an outcast, there's someone out there for you. Watching these two little outcasts become best friends warms my heart every time.

8. The deep message.

Although Lilo and Stitch is cute and funny and great for kids, it's got a few really deep meanings. There's the classic message of "Ohana," and there's also some really great commentary about standing up for yourself and being a true friend. It really spreads the greatest message.

My tattoo-from the ending "This is my family. It's little. And broken. But still good. Yeah, still good."

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
