Have you watched Maleficent?
What did you think of it?
Maleficent is a powerful fairy living in the Moors, a magical forest realm bordering a human kingdom. As a young girl, Maleficent meets and falls in love with a human peasant boy named Stefan. On Maleficent's 16th birthday, he gives her what he calls a true love's kiss. However, as they grow older, the two grow apart; Stefan's love is overshadowed by his ambition to be king, and Maleficent becomes protector of the Moors.

When King Henry tries to conquer the Moors, Maleficent mortally wounds him, forcing his retreat. As he lies dying, he declares that whoever kills Maleficent will be named his successor and marry his daughter. Stefan calls on Maleficent in the Moors; he drugs her, but cannot bring himself to kill her. Instead, he amputates her wings, presents them to Henry as 'proof' of Maleficent's death, and is named the new King. While still processing the betrayal, Maleficent turns Diaval, a trapped raven, into a human, frightening away his captors. He promises to serve her, and brings her news of the humans. Infuriated when she learns why her wings were taken, Maleficent, and the Moors she controls, become dark and sinister.

Happiest faerie of VGF.

Maleficent is a Tumblr post given a Hollywood budget.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

^ That's hilarious and seemingly accurate.

The only one of these live action Disney sequels I saw was Alice. That was okay. Kinda reminded me of an inferior Sucker Punch.
