№ 629: Movie Pitch

FANTASYLAND (July 1)

Here's this idea for a new Disney flick.
It’s got a princess. It can be made quick.
Her dad, the king, has always been nuts.
Two weak evil brothers — audience loves hating their guts.
Maybe a semi-legitimate sister
and baby hubby who dares not resist her.
Then something happens — you know, movie stuff —
and daddy’s deposed, but not quick enough
and evil “Uncle” — did I mention him? —
ascends the throne. Turns out he’s rotten.
Worse than her dad, worse than both brothers.
Seems like he’s had too few grandmothers.
Then more of the usual Hollywood stuff.
A perfect project for Hillary Duff!
It could be a musical. Like I said all along.
Hilly could write (at least) one of the songs.
Maybe it's a live-action cartoon:
Princess Ivanka! Go see it soon!
