I hated The Little Mermaid, because of the character.
I couldn't understand why she wanted to walk, when it
would be so cool to be a mermaid! She didn't know how
good she had it!

And also because of how she constantly went against
her father. I'm not sure what kind of mood I was in
when I saw it, because I'm not normally such a
curmudgeon, but that's what I remember.
