"Gotta Kick It Up"
Growing up, this was one of my all-time favorite Disney original movies. It starred a majority Latina cast including America Ferrera and Camille Guaty. It was one of the few films that featured actors and characters who looked like me and my family.

"Aladdin" and the many Disney Classics
I think I’m most excited to be able to easily stream all of my favorite older Disney movies/Disney classics in one place! Notably, movies like Aladdin (1992), A Goofy Movie, Beauty and the Beast (1991), Hercules and more!

"The Haunted Mansion"
"The thing I am most excited for on Disney+ being able to watch 'The Haunted Mansion' whenever I feel like it. My laptop doesn't have a DVD player in it and sometimes, as a former Mansion Maid, I just want to watch the movie and have a good cry while wondering why I am not currently at The Haunted Mansion. The plot kind of sucks, but I'm here for the music and overt nods to the classic Disney attraction. I need me my grim, grinning ghosts."

"Fantasia 2000"
"The pick I am excited for is "Fantasia 2000". I remember watching "Fantasia 2000" during a music class in elementary and being fascinated with the animations more so than the classical music. Now I actually listen to the music and have songs on Spotify like "Rhapsody in Blue" that I appreciate and enjoy."

"What If?" - MCU and Star Wars
"The thing I’m most excited for on Disney+ is all of the Marvel shows that are coming out in the future! Shows like ‘What If?’ have a lot of potential promise for huge superhero fans like myself! I’m also excited about the entire catalog of MCU movies and the Star Wars Saga, the Mandalorian included!"

Star Wars
"With The Rise of Skywalker only a month away, I am putting myself through a Star Wars marathon, including the animated series "The Clone Wars" and "Rebels," the latter of which I won't have access to until Disney+ releases. Along with The Mandalorian, I too am one of many in this galaxy that cannot wait to give Disney more of my money."
