5 Underrated Disney Movies

I'm sure there are more, but these are my favorites.

I’m a total sucker for a good Disney movie. Honestly, it’s pretty hard to get me to dislike a Disney movie (unless I watch it over and over again for years because it was my brother’s favorite movie.) In no particular order, here are some of the Disney movies that I think deserve some more love.

1. The Emperor’s New Groove

There isn’t anything not to love about this movie. It’s possibly one of my favorite movies ever. Yzma and Kronk are arguable the worst Disney villains imaginable. They honestly suck at being villains, but their attempts at being bad are hilarious. Kuzco and Pacha both go through some great character development and growth. Plus, I love llamas and this movie is all about llamas. Like, I said, nothing not to love.

2. Lilo & Stitch

I love this movie so much. Lilo and Stitch was really popular when it first came out, but I feel like people kind of forget about it. The music is amazing, the animation is fantastic, and the characters are incredible. No one can deny the perfect soundtrack filled with Elvis and Hawaiian music. Or the fact that aliens and humans are portrayed as coexisting peacefully (after some initial problems) is also great. And the story has parts that are both adorable and heartbreaking. It’s practically perfect.

3. Monsters Inc.

Technically this is a Pixar movie, but I’m still counting it because it was released by Walt Disney Pictures. But this movie is amazing. Mike Wizowski and Sully are one of my favorite movie duos ever. Also Boo is arguably one of the cutest animated children ever. Plus, the Abominable Snowman is also super cute and hilarious.

4. The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

I have loved this movie since I was little. It’s a compilation of four shorter featurettes strung together into a film. My mom says that I used to make her rewind my VHS (throwback right there) over and over again. I found out over the summer that it’s on Netflix and made my mom watch it with me, that’s how much I love this movie.

5. The Princess and the Frog

Tiana is honestly the most underrated princess. She spends most of the movie as a frog, but that’s beside the point. It’s a great movie set in 1920s New Orleans with some super fun jazz music. There’s some great music, talking animals, and amazing animation. Though, that’s really what I expect from Disney movies. Really, what’s not to love?

This is a totally subjective topic, of course, but this is my take on it. Disney movies are great and I have yet to run into one that I don’t like. But these are the ones that could definitely use a little bit more love. I’m sure you’ve got some different ideas, so let me know what you think!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
