Gulliver's Travels release reviewed
After “horror stories” spread around the internet about the state of the images reproduced in a new Blu-ray edition of Max Fleischer’s 1939 animated feature Gulliver’s Travels, Animated Views takes a look at the disc itself, and finds that it does indeed present the film in questionable form and not at all as originally intended.

Max Fleischer’s Superman: 1941 – 1942
Max and Dave Fleischer’s exceptionally vibrant and brilliantly animated science fiction cartoons come to disc in a deluxe collection that may not be definitive but is probably the best these cartoons are ever likely to look. Not “super” but not killed by Kryptonite either. |
|
Gulliver’s Travels
Max and Dave Fleischer’s first animated feature gets a down and dirty treatment on Blu-ray, which you’ll certainly find an old VHS edition would beat out in terms of quality. Avoid at all costs! |

Healing through humor: Paul & The Dragon on DVD
Review and interview featuring Paul & The Dragon, a unique new animated featurette from Holland that helps children suffering with cancer to deal with their situation. |
|
Paul & The Dragon
Holland’s AniKey Studios’ debuting short film is a really entertaining approach to helping children and their parents cope and overcome major illness. |
|
Watching the Watchmen, plus Green Lantern!
Although the Watchmen film ultimately failed to fulfill all the very heavy expectations both fans of the comic book and those coming to the property for the first time might have had, it still offered a sprawling mass of eye candy on an epic scale, and Zack Snyder’s film is an accomplishment, whatever anyone takes […] |
