More like "So it isn't a total loss...", for those who never had D+, and to make them "official" theatrical movies, even though most of them are on disc now. Still, it's the same problem when Fantasia 2000 opened in regular theaters in June '00: Everyone had knocked themselves out seeing it in the I...

Review for Across the Spider-Verse is up! https://animatedviews.com/2023/spider-man-across-the-spider-verse/ Bumping this one after six months, now that it's on Netflix: (Just think, we used to have to pay to rent last summer's movies we missed in theaters!) I agree, there's too much filler--Maybe ...

And marvels opens to $47m. Again, many movies would love to open to that, but this is an mcu film. This is really low for them! It's down there with incredible hulk and inhumans the movie! There was an Inhumans MOVIE, or was it just distributed theatrically overseas? (Unless you meant Eternals, and...

Sorry to hear Wish is terrible, but then I wasn’t really expecting otherwise. I just don't think Jennifer Lee is the person to be running Disney… Could have done so much more for a proper 100th anniversary movie. From the start, Wish just sounded so insipid! I know I Cassandra'ed this earlier on, b...

Of course, nowadays, the young kids like to use: but we take your meaning.

Soul, Turning Red, Lightyear, the last six MCU, Strange World, Encanto, Artemis Fowl... Despite my loyalty for getting folks back in to the theaters, I just haven't been having much luck with the Disney movies I passed on and waited for D+ instead. They tend to confirm my better judgment. (Well, oka...

Oo, is "Christmas with Walt Disney" another rare 50s-60s special from the Archive, or just D+'s own thrown-together cash-in?

I dare not hope they finally dug up Walt's Peter Pan Christmas-special that never appeared on the discs like the Alice special did.

We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story has a great *look* to it, but the film goes nowhere! It is, however, completely batty, random and nonsensical that it’s kind of loveable for those reasons. This was early-90s, back before Spielberg and Katzenberg got together to make more DreamWorks Lion King clones, ...

(Darn, before clicking, I thought it was going to be the Holy Ayy Pledjii...)

Hahahaha…"semi-classic". Night At The Opera and Day At The Races are considered the apex of their MGMs, with (slightly) more coherent plots than even their gag-based Paramounts. So the Marxes is a must — one of their best — (Groucho gives Margaret Dumont a horse pill) Lawyer: "Isn't that a little l...

Here's my annual look at our Charlie Brown Christmas display. I'm in the centre of the yard in the second photo, setting it up.

Neighborhood lights and display contest??
Ohhh, even our own Randall's gone commercial!

One Twitter user pointed out a rather notable point about 20's animateds: https://twitter.com/TheRealJimsYT/status/1724110710651728054 Just like Mario before, Chris Pratt's Garfield also has daddy issues. How hard was it to make a story about Garfield, Odie, and Jon? Why should anyone care about Gar...

Even Disney+ is jumping on the "Modern trailer" trend for overlooked Ron Miller-era titles:

And the emotions STILL look uncannily like Jim Henson creations...

Yeah, whatever happened to the old Katzenberg glory-days of "Animation is dead, because nobody went to see Ruby Gillman!"?
