Aladdin

Passings by ChokolatteJedi

'When he refuses again and again to kill, the man finally asks him to keep him hidden from all the eyes that watch him. The Genie obliges, but he does not know enough of this new world.' A fascinating take on the Aladdin universe, with some chilling moments along the way

Disney cartoons

See You Real Soon by Bossy Marmalade

'Minnie doesn't ask how his nephews are. Minnie minds her own business and doesn't meet his rolling, translucent eyes.' A strange, memorable short that paints horror movie red & black over Disney pastels

How to Train Your Dragon

blinded by the sun by Akamine Chan

'WheatWyrms are found almost exclusively in grain silos, slithering among the grains of wheat, building up a slight electrical charge that they use to shock their rodent prey.' AU in which Hiccup & Toothless go on the flying equivalent of a road trip & explore how other cultures interact with dragons. At its best in the whimsical excerpts from Hiccup's Revised Dragon Manual

[Added 04/10/2013; Drama; 1000-2500; How to Train Your Dragon]

The Incredibles

the greatest good by Dudski

'God must have one hell of a sense of humor, her mother says, to give the gift of elasticity to someone so stubborn.' An insightful portrait of Helen before the film, which explores how difficult it must be for her to be the careful one of the family

Who Framed Roger Rabbit

The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down by Merlin Missy

Someone's deleting toons, and this time it's Jessica who's the prime suspect. This inventive murder mystery works on several different levels, and never fails to amuse
