How To Guess a Robin's Identity

Disney Movie Marathon

The third movie was Cinderella. They had chosen this one as it was a classic more than anything else. It was still entertaining but it wasn't as good as the others, it was a bit too girly/fairy-tale for everyone but M'gann. Everything was just a tad too cheesy for most of them.

Fourth was The Little Mermaid, which was highly amusing for everyone but Kaldur. M'gann loved the love story, Artemis and Wally liked the songs, Connor smiled at Flounder and Robin liked Sebastian. But Kaldur kept moaning about all the inaccurate information and lousy interpretations of Atlantis, his expression was slightly constipated through most of the movie. The movie ended happily to everyone's joy, well apart from Robin who pursed his lips.

"What? Something wrong Rob?" Wally asked his best friend at seeing his expression.

"Kinda, in the actual fairy tail by Hans Christian Anderson, Ariel dies."

"Well that's cheery Boy Wonder." The green archer added sarcastically.

"Yeah, the only people who actually survived the classic fairy-tales were Jack (from Jack in the Bean Stalk) and The Ugly Duckling I think. Most didn't have nice fates." Robin replied shrugging.

"Wow, lovely fact. How about we get back to the movies. Mulan is next and that movie is brilliant. It has brilliant songs, lots of fighting and most importantly it also has lots of Girl Power." Artemis grinned as she went and put the movie in.

"Wait, I need to get more snacks!" Wally shouted as he sprinted off towards the kitchen and returned yet again with a now full bowl of popcorn and cup of coke (which they were not letting Robin near after his whole sugar high accident).

"Again, Baywatch!" Artemis shouted.

"Hey, high metabolism!" Wally complained.

"Yeah right, Kid Mouth!" Robin cackled as he stole a handful of popcorn.

The team settled down once again to watch Mulan. This time the whole team enjoyed it; it had enough action, plenty of romance, brilliant songs and lots of girl power. The team really enjoyed it. When the song 'I'll make a man out of you' came on Wally and Robin got off the sofa and danced along, even Artemis was grinning at the pair, singing along with Wally and Robin.

After that was Tangled. This was M'gann's favourite as she felt similar to Rapunzel, a young kind girl growing up separate to everyone else (M'gann because she was a white Martian) and then finding love and a family and following her dreams. Even Connor had started to really get into it and started to sing along. It was another successful movie, everyone enjoying it and another happy ending.

Aristocats quickly followed. The team liked that one as well, surprisingly. Connor especially liked that one and felt sympathetic for the little kittens. The whole team sang along to the song "Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat" and Artemis joined the pair of trouble makers in their dancing. They enjoyed the happy ending (they liked happy endings as they seemed so rare in real life - although non-happy endings were also oddly satisfying in some ways on occasions).

Next up was Aladdin. It was another classic that Robin, Artemis and Wally had all agreed the whole team needed to see. Connor enjoyed the story of a street rat who fell in love with a princess and managed to still save the day in the end. Kaldur had a smile on his face throughout the movie, M'gann loved Jasmine, Artemis laughed alongside Wally at the genie and Robin looked longingly at the tiger and monkey, Abu. They decided some of the classics were good.

Hercules followed on the list. They had added that to the list as they were interested in seeing another hero's life (even if it was a Disney adaptation) plus apparently the songs were very good. The team did really enjoy the songs and found Hercules' journey very relatable to a lot of them, as he wanted to prove himself just as they did. They found a few bits slightly cheesy though and spent half the time discussing the inaccuracies compared to the myths. Still they enjoyed the movie despite this and they sang along with 'Zero To Hero', 'Gospel Truth' and 'I Can Go The Distance'. They all cheered as Hercules saved Olympus and Meg.
