It's nice to know that justice will be done, evil punished and the good living happily ever after. (If I want an alternative, there's always the news...) As you pointed out, I had fun spotting the references, scenes, etc from previous movies. The one "near miss" scene that did surprise me a little was the <em>Lady and the Tramp</em> dinner which <strong>didn't</strong> use spaghetti and meatballs. A pizza just wasn't the same!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('8151','peterw'); return false;"><small class=\"commentmetadata\">Reply</small></a> | <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('8151','peterw','I think fairy tales are meant to be a little bit predictable, it\'s part of their charm for children (of all ages).
