As I read Donald
Duck, The Master Mover, I really enjoyed how light and whimsical the story
content was. I also enjoyed how right from the beginning Walt Disney
established a character arc for Donald Duck, as a cocky mover was really good
at his job. Disney laid the foundation for a good story by allowing Donald to
be great at all of his moving jobs except for his last one. I did notice though
that there was a lack of character development in Donald's nephews, but I don't
have a problem with that though. Maybe Disney just wanted them to function as a
group just for the sake of all of the emphasis going on Donald and the story.
I really enjoyed looking at
the style of the drawings. I found them pretty interesting because of their
flat nature mixed with overlapping forms to create depth. I think that this
design choice really helped. I also thought that the color palette was really
suited to this story because the idea of it was absolutely absurd and all over
the place. Because of this, I feel that the wide variety of color fit the
playfulness of the story.
I also found it funny that
Donald retired the moving company, which was the only occupation that he was
good at. I think this fact helped to bring Donald Duck back to his character
arc of being terrible at everything else he does. Overall, I thought the
story was lots of fun and I would be interested in reading more.
