When hearing the word “Disney” uttered in any situation, a typical person might lightheartedly smile at the the thought of memories from their childhood or vague remembrances of the iconic Disney movies they watched long ago. A Disney fanatic, however, has a completely different reaction. These people don't just have an affinity for Disney, they are completely hooked. The new Disney film Moana is set to release in late November of 2016 and according to writer Eliza Berman, the movie’s story depicts that of “self-discovery” rather than “a princess tale or love story” (Berman). This is a lot to take in for Disney fanatics, who are simply itching to watch and dissect the newest addition to the Walt Disney name. For many, this new movie marks a

These people are not the typical bunch; they live eat, drink, and sleep the music that they listen to. It is because of this that Disney attracts them so much. The Obsessed Musician doesn’t simply go to the movie screening when a new Disney film is introduced. They will get tickets to the sing-along version as well, and will sing the loudest when attending it. Music is like coffee to them; if they don’t get their daily filling, they become as grumpy as the dwarf Grumpy in Snow White, if not grumpier. When watching an old Disney film, the Obsessed Musician will become emotional not because of the storyline, but because of the grand chorus ebulliently singing within the background. They are guilty of humming Disney tunes without thinking about it, and will often get distracted from having them stuck in their heads. Further, the first thought that they have when a new Disney film is released is whether the music will live up to the standards of all of the classics or not. Within an article entitled “Why Disney’s live action Beauty and the Beast Had To Be a Musical, According to Josh Gad,” Dirk Libbey quotes Josh Gad when writing: “‘Beauty and the Beast, you’d better… believe that people know those songs. They expect to hear those songs, and they expect to see those songs come to life’” (Libby's).

Instead of admiring the musical aspect and the possible easter eggs that provide correlations to past and future films; they will solely concentrate on the overall message portrayed, as well as analyzing the characters' ability to fit into the films. They will often show their passion through costumes, displaying their love for the individual characters, whether the film is in a chimerical world or in realistic scenery. These people may indeed be some of the most garrulous individuals on the planet. In the soon-to-be released Disney film Moana, it is hinted that one of the characters in the movie claims the woman character is a princess simply because she “wears a dress” and is accompanied with an “animal sidekick” (Berman). As much as these Childlike Story-Lovers focus on the characters in general, they will believe that the overall plot determines its greatness or mediocrity. Callow fanatics will simply say that it is awesome because it is Disney. These fans would go ballistic if they heard this comment. In the movie Moana, the plot decides to "cast Maui in a significant role but shifted focus to the teenager girl....saves the world in the process." (Berman). This could either be a revolutionary way for Disney to make movies, or it could prove to be a feeble attempt at something new. If there is still confusion about who these types of people are, visualize
