The Rule of Three

I learned about the rule of three.  This is a very powerful method.  This can be seen in many novels, poems, and even in catch-phrases.  However, I thought that I might find it in not only literature, but also movies.  I love Disney movies.  For examples, "Sleeping Beauty," "The Lion King," and "The Three Caballeros."  All of them have threesome relationships.  Firstly, in "Sleeping Beauty," there are three fairies; Flora, Fauna and Merryweather.  They are very small and gentle.  Three fairies contribute the happy ending of this movie.  Second, in "The Lion King," there are three hyenas.  They are enemies of Simba (The main character.)  Their characters are very similar; evil, ugly, and ill-natured.  Their names are Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed.  Lastly, there are three main characters in "The Three Caballeros."  Their names are Donald Duck, José Carioca, and Panchito Pistoles.  You know, one of the main characters, Donald Duck, became one of the most famous characters in Disney movie.
As just described, the rule of three appears in Disney movies.  This makes movies more powerful.
In addition, did you notice that I used the method in this text?  I used three movies for examples.  If you think this text is weighty, it is because of the rule of three.
