I think The Little Mermaid is my favorite Walt Disney film.
Really? It is mine as well! To me, it has the best storyline and characters. I loved Ariel!
Yes! And it was based on the Danish fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen.
I actually didn't know that! I liked how they made Sebastian and Flounder her closest friends. They were awesome.
The Little Mermaid was also made into a stage musical by Disney Theatrical.
