I See the Light is in my top 3 21st century Disney songs, I will not be taking questions at this time.

I am imagining the rooster jumping off your box of Corn Flakes and attacking you while whistling. I voted against Roger, but you know I love that version of Robin Hood. As much as I love Shere Khan de Witt, I voted for Depp.

A reference to my all-time favorite film! I have trouble seeing George Sanders as anyone else.

A shame that Kathy Najimy’s greatest work for the Disney company won’t be featured here. Ho yeah!

Oh, this one was tough. I didn't have a problem with my other choices, but comparing Johnny Depp's performance to the well-loved (and feared) character of Shere Khan gave me pause. Ultimately I had to go for Ed Wood, because I think Depp captured the naive young would-be artist side of Wood without making me think about the substance-abusing messes that came later. Doesn't hurt that it's one of my favorite Tim Burton films, either.

Is this where I get to brag that I saw Murphy in Passion on Broadway twice? :)
