Countdown trivia of the day:

I've started my 15 day countdown with A Disney Movie A Day. Last night I watched Newsies, today I was going to pop in Sleeping Beauty but Hercules was on ABC Family so I counted that instead. Will do Sleeping tomorrow night, but any suggestions for Tuesday's selection? I have most classics from the 90's and some Pixar, and most animated films from the 60's and 70's.

This should explain why….
