@@chasformer3091 🤣 I love it ... aww

@@chasformer3091 I love this, thank you!!!

@@chasformer3091 which of these 3 do you recommend most? Might consider a film review 🤔👀

@@OakesPrincess Hmmm All of them, but I say start with the 1995 one since people tend to say its closer to the book. It has Rik Mayall (beloved British Comedian of The Young Ones and Bottom) as Mr. Toad. After check out the one by Cosgrove for charming stop motion animation. Then check out the Rankin Bass Wind In The Willows. In fact, why not watch them all and do a compare and contrast to see which one is better and closer to the book?

@@chasformer3091 I love it .. okay, I'm gonna screen shot this

@@OakesPrincess They're all free on KZbin

I'm gonna say 30s 🤭🤭 you decide if she's early, mid, or late 30s... the jury is still out. To my knowledge, they don't specifically prohibit anyone auditioning based on age..

"Angela" is a character I sometimes portray, she's a spin off of "Confessions part 2" from ~10 years ago, I've recently started writing a few webisodes for her that I hope to get out slowly over the next few months, about how she comes to terms with not ever getting her dream of being cast, as well as finding out what happens between she & her dream husband, "Prince Phillip," another Disney character performer.. 🤭🤭❤️

@@OakesPrincess Got it. I LIKE IT, cuz Angela can actually be a great example for young girls pursuing their dreams that seem impossible to reach. That no matter how many times you get rejected, or being told ur not good enough, if u have a dream in ur heart, u gotta persevere, persevere & keep persevering cuz even if u don't reach ur goal, u have no regrets cuz u gave it ur all & put ur heart & soul in it.

@@dianapino8864 you read my mind! 😭❤️

@@OakesPrincess NOTHING BUT LOVE & RESPECT FOR U, u can influence so many by watching ,so many of us have low self esteem cuz we're never "good enough" in anybody's eyes. I'm a grown woman & it spoke to me. I was never "good enough" to make the cheerleading squad in high school, even though I tried out every yr & that always stayed w/ me.THANK U FOR TAKING FOR TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE THESE VIDEOS, U HAVE A HUGE HEART!!!!

@dianapino8864 yes, that "good enough"/"pretty enough" struggle is SO real!!! Thank you for the encouragement!! The next episode may take a few weeks because of scheduling but I hope it speaks as well. We're all on a journey. ❤️❤️

@emmad.176 Cher was awesome! I still say, "my bad" & relive certain lines like, "omigosh...I love Josh!!" 🤭 I heard the clueless story was taken from Jane Austin, her novel "Emma," which is on my "to read" list.. thanks for sharing!

@OakesPrincess Yeah I heard that about Clueless too :) Always lovely to see new videos :)

@emmad.176 thanks for watching! ❤️

@@DescendantsFanClub 😭😭😭😭 Angela sends you her love!!

@@OakesPrincess well I hope she feels better ❤️

@@DescendantsFanClub she's got a good support system. She's planning to give an update soon!

@@OakesPrincess can’t wait to hear how she is doing

@@Pianorockstar_ "Thank you 😊 "--- Angela

If you know, you know...

@gissellept Angela said to tell you thank you, but she wishes the casting director had felt the same as you do. 😭 she's still lamenting everything casting told her. Angela tries not to eat after 9pm and does a 30 minute workout DVD most days of the week. 😆🤭 Hope that helps! (Now because of this casting director, she may try and cut back on sugar, no promises!)

@@OakesPrincess ugh cutting back on the sugar is the HARDEST part lol 😆

@@Susannah.N she tried! 🙈😭🤭

@@khenderson6606 she's spittin' fax 💅😆🤭👀

@tabithapeters9879 I don't know exactly what they want from Angela. They could've at least considered her for one of the Country Bears...

@sneakyprince1899 she was trapped as a janitor, but look out... she got ahold of Prince Phillip's phone number and so she may be giving him a call soon and letting everyone in on her conversation with him 🙈🤭

@Hevynly1 I'll let Angela know you said that. The casting director is a Retired Cinderella/Belle, so she definitely must feel entitled to her opinions. Universal is calling. 👀👀

@@summmerlyyy seriously!!! It's amazing the difference a casting director can make!!!

lol. Thanks for supporting Angela! xo

@@OakesPrincess she did a great job on her audition👏🏻

​@@amandanelson339 if only the casting director agreed... 😢

@@OakesPrincess what I want to know is how you pulled that off,so much work went into it and it was amazing!

@amandanelson339 well it was Angela's 43rd audition, so she's been practicing... 😅🧐😂

@cieloamezcua oh she actually owns it?!

@@cieloamezcua love you too!!! 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

@gwynnethsmith9226 yes, I have to say, twilight was a good influence in that way, lol, not saying everyone followed it... i think Bella represented what every girl wanted, or she voiced teen girl thoughts, but Edward was the mature, stable, unwavering, uncompromising one and so he was safe. Bella knew he loved her and would die for her. He did try to offer her a human life, but it just led to Jacob being a 3rd leg. Lol so anyway. Yes, that sparkle ability, that's just something I've had to accept that my husband cannot do. Lol

@TheChan7 yes! Please let me know what types of videos you'd like to see and I'll fit them in! I currently have at least 3 videos requested of movie review related subjects, like Gremlins & Beetlejuice 😅 (maybe because we're close to Halloween? Nostalgia ) but also I've had requests for "Angela," an improv character i sometimes do, to reappear... I'm coming back to KZbin after having been off for too long and am trying to find a way to connect with my audience again. I'd gained subscribers from discussing Disney princess topics, but I confess, I got burned out.. I don't mind discussing it, but every single video was that, so youtube has been a learning experience for me. 😅❤️

@@OakesPrincess totally understand. I do get burned out from KZbin too. Here’s my playlist that includes a few Disney pieces. I don’t have time and want to figure out a better mic to continue doing more. kzbin.info/aero/PLcE_aT85FmiltpVc4XawqOm8e3yTOarGf&si=MQulB8N5vDI9TLDr Any Disney videos would be great even ones about your experiences as a Disney princess 😊

@TheChan7 I love that you're doing youtube and sing! I wish I could sing! I don't know about microphones... do you follow any singers on youtube? I wonder if you're able to see which mics they use. Production equipment can get expensive. But I always hear to start out simple and humble and build up as you are able. Do you write your own songs or play instruments? I love this one singer, Stephanie Poetri, have you heard of her? She sings a song, "I love you 3000," have you heard of it? Have you tried singing that one? Are you more interested in solely Christian songs? I love that you sing Christian music. My favorite Christian music is African, like with an afrobeat, a bit ethnic, or Christian hiphop, but I love praise songs too, I'm just pickier with those, or else I love acapella style hymns from church...

@rajeevyadav9262 sure, send it to [email protected] 🤗

Thank you so much 🤗I hope you like the movie as much as we did! Though we did just see "Wild Robot" in theaters also, and my husband actually liked that one better.

@shellshocked5765 🤣🤣 right?! I am still feeling like those days were yesterday!!! I used to think, "I can't wait until she's walking, I can't wait until she's talking..." But now I wish time would slow down... I wish I'd known sooner to slow down & enjoy where I was in time...

@@OakesPrincess <3 You're a great mom. There are many blessings to come!

@shellshocked5765 thank you! I hope she thinks so! 😭😆❤️

@Teletran35 yaaaassss to Transformers!!!! I was a big teenage mutant ninja turtle fan since it came out, so the cartoon of Transformers was a bit before my time. As a kid, I remember thinking it was too much of a "boy cartoon" & was more into She-ra than a He- man, though I adored Thunder Cats.. when is that movie coming out?!?! But I credit Michael Bay, the film starring Shia Lebouf & Megan Fox, with really putting Transformers "the story" on the map for me, but this was possibly better, for me, than even that first one with Lebouf.. any particular favorite scenes for you? I was laughing and crying, grabbing my seat with suspense..

@@erikalobati2139 yayyyy! Yes, it's a fun memory for all of us!

@tracypetrowski181 I'm glad you enjoyed!! ❤️

@kelseytaylor6314 thank you for watching! I also wanted people to get inspired as to what other ideas for working with film there are, such as the sound and set design jobs. Xoxo

Corrections sorry*: so toad was framed he made a contract with the weasels and the Bartender he wasnt aware that the car was stolen he just noticed they were driving it and wanted to pay up for the car in the form of a contract. Disney never left it ambiguous

@deeniep6242 I'll have to go back and watch it... all I know is, I am not a fan of that toad character 🧐🤭

@lunalilaclily I haven't seen devil wears prada in awhile! I should totally watch it again! I've never seen Hotel Rwanda, and as for Moulin Rouge, my husband and I loved that movie! We used to watch it together often back in the day. Can you believe that I never saw Slumdog millionaire?! Crazy, I know. It was huge back in the day! Everyone said it was amazing, but I was so afraid to see the poverty. I knew what it was going to be like and I knew I was going to cry. Maybe one day I'll force myself. 😭😭 I did enjoy America's sweetheart with Jones, lol.. I still say, "Kiki! Kiki kins!!!" Lol

Hey Zach, it's funny you say that about the Twilight book because you're not alone. Twilight, as much of a following that it has, just isn't for everyone. It's a bit of a cult classic. Quite frankly, I see it as something... "immature." lol. I say this because of my neighbor, she's since moved, but we tried to book swap once and she gave Twilight a try and just could not stomach it. My neighbor and I connected on a great many things, but she had a lot more structure in her life and I am definitely more of an "artist type personality," if that says anything. I performed at Disney, whereas she went to school for engineering and worked doing something of the sort at Disney behind the scenes. I think I just viewed her as someone more mature all in all. I honestly have never seen Charlie's Angels. lol. I think I was bitter against Candace Cameron (an actress I don't even know, shame on me) because she was dating Justin Timberlake at the time, and I was team Britney Spears, this was post break up of Britney Spears & Justin Timberlake. I was still in high school mind you, or about that age and so quite immature mentally, I suppose, lol. But to be honest, I just wasn't a huge Charlie's Angels fan, though I may be persuaded to watch it at some point. I think for me too, was.. Farah Fawcett... nobody was ever going to replace her in my mind, as an angel. The idea of anyone else just didn't sit with me. Maybe I should get over myself and see it. lol. I hope its streaming free somewhere. As for Inception, as I'm watching this video, I see that I have little to say about it when I compare it to the others. I will say, it does put me in a bit of a somber tone. It's a mind bending type of film, but it's not one that will make me laugh or bring joy. It does have some action scenes though. Thanks again for watching! Yes, will have to do more. xoxo

@@OakesPrincess Forgot to mention: Charlies Angels is free on KZbin right now. I'm not sure if it will be your kind of movie, but yes, it's better not to compare it to the original.

yaassssssss!!! I feel the same! LOL about the moms w/Twilight... it pretty much grabbed every woman I know of.. I think it was touching on a lot of classic lit. The Dracula story, for example, I listened to the audiobook within the last year & I have to say, I kept comparing it to Twilight and it was interesting to see where certain ideas of the vampires in Twilight, where the author may have gotten some of those ideas from. But they really elevated Edward's character to this impossible standard because most men might have a difficult time living up to such a standard. The characters are essentially obsessed with each other, but that's nearly impossible to do in reality because we don't live in an immortal world with super hero abilities... super speed, super strong, mentally tougher, etc. etc. It was definitely a fun show. Soap opera-esque.

@amandanelson339 it's my dark secret.. lol it's technically my sister, niece, & I who giggle like school girls together over this series. 😅😅

@sylviawendland7652 this is shade: 3N 🤗🤗

@writerspen010 not gonna lie, the physical experience was tricky sometimes, but if memory serves, I was able to look out of the mouth of Kermit.. Pluto was also the mouth.. thanks for sharing in the wiring struggles! 🙈 I love that you write letters. ✍️

@lunalilaclily so it's the mid 30s that we lose our writing groove unless we're actively working not to?! I love it 🤭🤣 thanks for sharing and watching! ❤️

@@MarysAwesomeVideos absolutely!! That's awesome you write in cursive.. I'm told it's a dying art these days. 😭😭😭

@v_zach wow, thanks for checking it out! 🤭 yes, it was where I was mentally back then.. I related to the characters for sure 😅 looking forward to making a video responding to one of your lists you commented to me... I have a couple of other uploads beforehand, but for sure. 🤭

@v_zach oh I feel like I've seen Kermit's autographs there before!!! To be honest, I do not recall any DVD sleeves, but more often it was the impressive scrapbooking efforts that stood out to me. Some people went above and beyond creating memorable autograph memorabilia to sign on. I was a short puppy and lacked the upper body strength to carry the weight of puppy's costume. That was his nickname, "puppy." I wonder if it still is... more often than not, people called him that over his actual name. 🤭🤭

yaaay!! I hope you enjoy the video! xoxo

@robbiewales3007 yes! It's worth it though! 🤗

@@estoyaqui4274 I believe it's -4.50 🤗

@lesliereynolds4492 I'm glad the surgery went well for you! You'll have to let me know which ones you end up going for! I watched another firmoo video and the girl in that one chose more fun styles, trendier, etc... which I may buy those later, but for now, since I usually only wear mine at night, I went for these.. I also appreciate that I can wear these for multiple occasions, whereas, sometimes, with colors on glasses, they can clash with outfits... it all depends.. ❤️ thanks for sharing your story!

aww, so sweet! thank you!
