Movie Review: Disney’s WISH Starring Ariana DeBose, Chris Pine, Alan Tudyk
Happy 100th birthday, Disney! Wish is a celebration of Disney; the legacy of 100 years of combining top-notch animation with stars singing catchy earworms that fans still sing years after the movies were released. It’s a blend of classic and new animation styles, music, even presentation (more on this later). It’s all in honor of […]
Movie Review: THE BOB’S BURGERS MOVIE Starring H. Jon Benjamin, Kristen Schaal, Dan Mintz
Following in the footsteps of TV shows turned movies like The Simpsons Movie and South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, fans now have a big screen version of Bob’s Burgers. The film starts off with a murder that takes place six years earlier at the wharf across from the restaurant. In present day, Bob (H. […]
Movie Review: SPIRIT UNTAMED Starring Isabela Merced, Jake Gyllenhaal, Marsai Martin
Spirit: Untamed looks like something you would find on a kids television channel – which is to say young ones will probably enjoy it perfectly fine, but it is nothing beyond forgettable and disappointing for anyone over 10 or so. When I review a film, I generally base my criticisms on what the film sets […]
Movie Review: Disney-Pixar ONWARD Starring Chris Pratt, Tom Holland
Onward is the twenty-second film being added to the Disney/Pixar catalog and the first of two releasing in 2020. In its opening minutes, the film presents us with the world as it once was – vibrant lands filled with magic and mythical creatures like fairies, unicorns and elves. The element of magic is present in […]
Movie Review: ‘The Lion King’ Starring Donald Glover, Beyoncé, Chiwetel Ejiofor
1994’s The Lion King is one of, if not the most, beloved animated films released by Disney. With a story inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet, wonderful score by Hans Zimmer, catchy new songs by Elton John, and the beautiful hand-drawn animation of the Disney renaissance in the ’90s – the film was an instant classic. Today Simba and friends […]
Robert Downey Jr. Lends His Talents to Dreamworks
I am kind of shocked that a studio hasn’t locked down Robert Downey Jr. sooner to do an animated film. Then again, he really only made his big comeback in 2008 with Iron Man. The man has got a great voice for animation, and his name will get butts in the seats. At least that’s […]
The Hidden Gem – “Green Lantern: First Flight”
“The Hidden Gem” is all about my personal favorite films. And while some of the films I discuss may not be hidden to most movie fans, they are hidden to a majority of my friends and people that I have talked to. So I want to discuss them for three reasons: 1. Tell you why […]
New “Rango” HD Trailer Starring Johnny Depp
This trailer doesn’t get me pumped to see this movie at all. It certainly shows you much more of the story than the first teaser, but I’m not sure that even Johnny Depp can get me in the theater for it. But Tangled also had awful trailers, and I absolutely loved that film. Anything is […]
DVD Review – “Waking Sleeping Beauty”
I briefly talked about Waking Sleeping Beauty last week in my “DVD Picks of the Week” so I don’t want to reiterate everything I said before. But the main point is that I love Disney musicals, and as soon as I saw the trailer I was dying to see it. After getting a chance to […]
Extended Comic Con Trailer of DreamWorks’ “Megamind” Starring Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, and Brad Pitt
To be honest the first teaser trailer of this looked kind of lame. There just wasn’t that much humor in it, and it looked like kind of a rehashed idea. However, with each subsequent trailer that has come out for it, I have been more intrigued. This extended trailer has me absolutely excited for the […]
