Long-form Writing Covering Film, TV, Theme Parks, and Happy Meals
You don’t have to break the bank when you buy Disney merch. If anything, the last few weeks at the Disney Stores prove that with discounts of anywhere from 30%-70% as they clear their shelves as they go out of business. But what about when they’re gone and all we have is the Parks, online, … Continue reading My $20 Disney HAUL at Walmart
One of the defining moments of the premiere episode of LOKI was when Loki escaped and made it all the way to Casey’s evidence cart in the TVA where he demanded the Tesseract (aka the space stone). After a funny-awkward conversation where Loki threatened Casey saying he would gut Casey “like a fish” and Casey … Continue reading Just A Theory: Is LOKI’s Miss Minutes more powerful than Thanos?
I'm so excited that Marvel Legends is offering the characters from the wildly popular Disney Plus shows. WANDAVISION along with THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER were both 2021 entertainment highlights for me - yes there hasn't been a whole lot, but the hype and theories surrounding these two tv series properties at least made … Continue reading Marvel Legends Disney Plus Loki and US Agent are In The Wild + Unboxing
In so many ways, Avengers Campus is going to be the anti-Wizarding World or Galaxy's Edge. Full disclaimer - Galaxy's Edge is awesome and my favorite theme park location on the planet. That being said, while riding the still popular Star Tours at Disneyland last week, I began to think - is there a part … Continue reading Avengers Campus Will Be The MCU’s Version of Star Tours – not Galaxy’s Edge. And I Can’t Wait.
Well it’s 2021, and it seems that restrictions are lifting in California. Orange County hit the fabled Yellow Tier a week ago and now Disneyland is up to 35% capacity. Things are getting better - indoor dining is happening (though apparently not at McDonalds) and people are going to the movies again. And most importantly … Continue reading On Its Second Anniversary in 2021, STAR WARS GALAXY’S EDGE Still Rules
I really like, no love, Walt Disney Studios’ 2001 animated film “Atlantis: The Lost Empire”. It’s got a number of things going for it - Mike Mignola character and vehicle designs, an Indiana Jones meets “20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” inspired plot, and an anamorphic 70MM presentation that makes it one of the nicest looking … Continue reading How To Fix “Atlantis: The Lost Empire” For a Live-Action Remake
"Just Stating Facts" is a recurring column where I argue one my (many) unpopular opinions. Look I loved 2019 2020’s “Artemis Fowl”. A theatrical and IMAX release that was dropped on Disney Plus for no Premiere Access surcharge (ahem “Mulan”) in the middle of June when everyone was still staying at home, quarantining and just … Continue reading JUST STATING FACTS: Why I Love Disney’s “Artemis Fowl”
In the spirit of this weekend’s “Mulan”, I thought I would think outside the box of the normal "Snow White", "Peter Pan", "Pinocchio", even "Brave" mentions in these types of blog posts and write up a list of 5 Disney Animated films that are less-well-known (that I mostly love) that I would like to see … Continue reading 5 Outside-The-Box Ideas for Disney Live-Action Remakes
A decade into the Disney Live-Action Remake trend, I take stock of my favorites and least favorites. Truth be told, I'm a huge fan of these films and I would give a "thumbs-up" to anything beyond the two Tier 4 films. TIER 4 - The Trash Pile: 14. Lady and The Tramp (2019) This movie … Continue reading RANK THIS: The Disney Live-Action Remakes of Animated Films – Including “Mulan”
Marvel Studios’ THE ETERNALS is one of my most anticipated films of 2021, but it’s also a huge question mark. We really don’t know what the story is, who the antagonist is, how the characters will act and interact, or even what the movie really looks like - beyond some character sketches. In other words, … Continue reading JUST A THEORY: “The Eternals” as a cornerstone of MCU Phase 4 … and 5.
