You should keep telling that to your friends. If they disagree, you can clobber them with truth (hopefully in front of other good friends).

Yeah. Now I'm wondering if that inspired the South Park writers.

>I sometimes tell my friends that if Disney ever made Romeo & Juliet, they’d make the title characters live happily ever after.
Not sure if you're setting people up to explain this, but
they did: The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride was based on R&J to keep with the Shakespeare theme since Lion King 1 was based on Hamlet.

Every Disney movie since Little Mermaid or Beauty and the Beast has at least one song that gets me. I haven't seen any Disney movies older than those two.
