I’m sure I am not alone when I say that Disney’s The Little Mermaid is probably one of my favorite animated films from when I was younger. There is just something about overcoming adversity in order to land your prince charming that appeals to the romantic in every single one of us. Add to that the fact that Disney opened it’s vault especially to release this Diamond Anniversary Edition and I cannot even begin to describe to you how tickled I am!
Transformed for the first time on Blu-ray, we meet Ariel, an independent mermaid who marches to the beat of her own drummer and longs to become a real human. Unfortunately, she becomes the prey of a cunning sea witch named Ursula who tricks her into striking a deal with the promise of helping her to become a real girl. This leads Ariel to be catapulted into a new adventure that she never imagined.
The film has been digitally restored and contains high-definition sound. This is all the better to enjoy listening to the melodious soundtrack of award-winning music that you can enjoy throughout this heartwarming adventure. With her sea creature friends Flounder and Sebastian by her side, you will be sure to fall in love with Ariel and with this film.
I’m very excited to have the opportunity to enjoy this film with my sons so that it can truly become a timeless classic in their lives much in the same way that it has been for me. We can now enchant a whole new generation with The Little Mermaid! The best part is that our sponsor is giving away one copy of The Little Mermaid Two-Disc-Diamond Edition on Blu-ray and DVD to one lucky reader of Tough Cookie Mommy!

I hate to say this, but I have never seen it. I bet my Granddaughters did when they were younger.. and now I have 2 more granddaughters who will be enjoying this.
My favorite character in the Little Mermaid is Sebstatin. I love his voice. I love that Ariel follows her dreams of being a human.
We love The Little Mermaid in this family. Madison loves Sebastian and his songs. Would have entered the giveaway if we didn’t already have one. Good luck to the entrants.
My favorite character is definitely Sebastian. He is so funny and makes a great voice of reason that Ariel completely ignores. He is also a great singer.
My fave character is Flounder, because he’s just so lovable! He’s also always looking out for Ariel as a great friend. Being that this was Disney’s major comeback to animated films in the 90s, it’s a classic – so what’s not to love? I can’t wait for my kiddos to see it. =0)
I think Flotsam and Jetsom ar funny! They’re Ursula’s hench crocodiles, and they are equally funny and scary!
My favorite movie as a kid was the little mermaid. I’ve been trying to get my girls into it, but it never works.. I still love it though!
Sebastian for BB- although I love the way Ursula belts out Poor Unfortunate Souls. ; )
I asked my kids and both of them said Flounder is their favorite. I think I am more fond of Sebastian.
My granddaughters like Ariel. I have personally never seen this but if I win I may get the chance now

Ariel is my favorite character. I love the music and the songs.
Thank you!
I’ve always loved Sebastian 🙂 He was the wise friend who was also a good singer 🙂 He sings some of my favorite songs in the movie 🙂
Ariel is my favorite and my daughter’s all-time favorite character from the movie. She watched the movie so many times over the years, it’s worn out! Need to pick this up for her for Christmas! I love the music from Disney movies the most. The story lines and animation are certainly fabulous, too.
I like Sebastian the Crab he is so funny and protective. I love the part when he sings Kiss the Girl.
I love the little Mermaid I remember getting a video player for the first time as a child and I was allowed to choose one video to rent – I decided on the Little Mermaid. I do love Sebastian..
Ariel was Marilu’s favorite! I had to dress as Ariel one Halloween when she was 3!
We love Sebastian because he is hilarious and kind
Sorry that may have been too short! My favorite scene from the movie is when Ariel and Eric kiss probably because I love happy endings.
Scuttle is so much fun; he was always my favorite. Great movie!
I loved the little mermaid growing up! I can still remember the words Ariel sang in her cave full of treasures! Ariel was my favorite!
We have this and have watched it 4 times already. 🙂
Sebastian is my favorite because he’s so funny. But my favorite thing about the movie is the music!
I’ll have to get this for my grand daughter. She loves Ariel.
Founder was always my favorite as a kid! I just love this story. Not sure why, I have just always loved it since I was a little girl. I want to share it with my daughter.
Who is your favorite character in The Little Mermaid and what do you love about the animated film?
i havent seen this movie,so sorry..i would love to win it,so thanks for the raffle dooddle,and thanks if you choose me and tell everybody else they are losers..ha ha
I love Ursula. I know she’s the bad guy but she has the best song.
My favorite character is Sebastian. I really enjoyed the music in the movie, especially Under the Sea.
MY favorite character? Oh man, I don’t think I could chose! This movie has such a special place in my heart. It was my son’s favorite movie when he was about 2 to 3 years old. Play it again Momma play it again! I knew every single word of it and sand the songs all over the house. He is 25 now and I am going to buy this for him for Christmas!!
I love this movie. We like scuddle can’t forget about him.
I have never seen this movie before so I really don’t know who would be my favorite character. I had all boys and they never asked to see this when they were young. It looks like a great animated film and I have heard a lot about it in the past.
Favorite character? Scuttle. The way he acts like he knows so much about humans is hillarious.
My daughter got an Ariel bathtub toy and she LOVES it. I think we need to hold off though on her seeing the movie as she scares easily and is it Ursula? She’s pretty scary in the movie!
This was my favorite movie when I was a kid! I loved it so much!
I haven’t seen it in years since my kids were little but oh, I really should pick it up and watch it again!
When this came out in theaters, my baby brother was imminently due to be born…my Nana agreed to take me to see The Little Mermaid if I would “promise to like him”, lol. The first time it came out on video, my baby cousin watched it so much I couldn’t take one more viewing – that was about 20 years ago or so, so I’d love to watch it now! 🙂
of course ariel is the top character – though the whole movie is pretty uplifting and a reminder of familial relationships. it has been a while since i watched it last
I love ursula
My little grand daughter was obssessed with Belle, then sleeping beauty now its Little Mermaid.
I would love to win a copy of this for my girls. I love seeing classic Disney movies. It would be fun to watch little mermaid with my girls.
I love Flounder; he’s a good friend. 🙂

My favorite character is Sebastian. However, I also have a fondness for Ursula, because she’s so over-the-top bad. My sisters and I used to sing her song (modified slightly) when our mom would ask us to do chores around the house.

Ariel is my favorite character. I think her innocence just touches me, my favorite part in the movie is when she finds all the “Human” stuff like the fork! She combs her hair with it and calls it a dinglehopper, it still makes me crack up to this day. The best disney movie IMO
I love Sebastian, he was always my fave in that movie. I like the songs, they’re just fun!
Flounder was always my favorite.. ever since I was a little girl
We have actually Never seen “The Little Mermaid”.
But I would love to be able to watch it with my children.
I think that Ariel would end up being our favorite character from the movie.

I like the Prince’s dog! The singing is great.
I love Scuttle and Sebastian and I love all the humor in the show

I like Sebastian the best- especially the scene where he is fleeing from the chef. I like the music in the Little Mermaid. I also like the story of a father and daughter relationship.
Scuttle is my favorite because he’s crazy!
