Why Wish and similar Disney films don't work
Disney movies have taken a bit of a downward turn recently. How come?
Stone Markers (2012)
"I see you, friends..." So says an eerie voice in the woods that seems to haunt identical twin brothers, Cory and Connor Sherman and their three friends after they discover a strange stone marker in the woods. And when a mental patient escapes and a young boy disappears, the group embarks on a quest that uncovers information related to the disappearances of seven children more than thirty years earlier. But what starts out as an adventure soon turns terrifying as one of the boys goes missing and the remaining boys are confronted by a horrifying truth that threatens their very lives.

"First Girl I Loved": A Well-Intended but Ultimately Flawed Story of Identity
Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale.
