Amanda: Hi Mike! I can't believe you're watching "The Lion King." Aren't you getting too old for Disney movies?
Mike: Nah, sometimes it's fun to be a kid again, and I've always found cartoons really entertaining. When I was little, most of my time would revolve around watching Disney cartoons.
Amanda: Yeah, me too. I was an avid watcher of cartoons. My all-time favorite is "Beauty and the Beast." When I was little, I wanted to be a princess-going to Disneyland was like a dream come true! I was so thrilled that I got to meet Cinderella, but I don't think my parents were too happy-they ended up having to buy me lots of Disney merchandise like Cinderella backpacks and toys.
Mike: "Cinderella's" too girly for me-I used to love watching "Aladdin." Imagine having a genie that could fulfill all your wishes. Wouldn't that be awesome? I'd ask it to do my homework for me every night!
Amanda: Speaking of homework, we're sitting here watching cartoons when we should be studying for tomorrow's math test.
Mike: Oh no, I completely forgot about that! Everything is hunky dory in cartoons-I wish real life were like that, too.
