Ah, yes, I do love a good theme or two in my Disney movies.

Re: The Prom: The Musical: The Movie

I watched this on Sunday and thoroughly disliked it. The songs weren't memorable, the direction was way too loud, most of the characters were obnoxious and don't develop at all, and the script was sloppy (though apparently that's true for the play too). The whole premise is hard to believe in, even ...

Re: Iwájú (Disney+ Series)

This is the really only interesting announcement for me, and I don't even have Disney+. It's nice to see an original project that isn't based off a preexisting property.

Re: The Prom: The Musical: The Movie

I'm not familiar with the musical but I can't say it's really grabbing me all that much. The music isn't exactly what I think of when I hear "musical," though that's what seems to be popular these days.

Re: Pixar's Luca

Is it me or is that weird? The way the premise is set up, it doesn't makes sense. Luca is supposed to be an average kid who makes a new friend that has a secret. How can this secret affect Luca and their friendship if he's also a sea monster? Unless, he's unaware he himself is a monster too and dis...

Re: Question on Kaitlyn Robrock

I went to check Robrock's filmography on IMDB, but her date of birth was missing. I went to add it in, but for some reason, it's always demanding a "reason" for inclusion. I deliberately avoided Wikipedia because it's not very reliable and went elsewhere. Actually, Wikipedia has been a fa...

Re: Mulan (Live-Action)

I’m slightly confused why all the backlash against the $30 price tag is such an issue. This is the movies theatrical run basically, and if 500,000 people pay for the $30 “admission” over the three months, the film only makes 15 million. This isn’t a rental, so you can watch it more than once unlike...

Re: Mulan (Live-Action)

I know I'm late to the party here, but $30 does seem very steep to purchase a single movie on a streaming service. That might be a good price for, say, a family of four as that's probably equivalent to what a family of four would pay at the theater. But I'm a family of one and go to the theater on B...

Re: What are you reading/have you just read? Vol. 2

I finished reading Order of the Phoenix last night and just finished watching the film. OotP is my favorite novel of the series and I've never been a fan of the film. After cutting out 2/3 of the novel and then piecing together bits and bobs of storyline, I feel like we got a very rushed and disjoin...

Re: Sunset Boulevard: The Musical: The Movie

Cats had incredible longevity on both sides of the Atlantic. Sunset Boulevard did not. In terms of money-making potential, history was on Cats’ side. That’s not the case with Sunset. And after Cats bombed, I just don’t understand why any movie exec should be digging through ALW’s repertoire— althou...

I’d like to see her finally film it, but I’ll believe it when it happens. I just don’t know who the audience for this is beyond “people who want to see Glenn Close win an Oscar” and I’m doubtful that’s encouragement enough to greenlight a new ALW adaptation. If a big studio won’t fund a proper movi...

TheSequelOfDisney , I can't believe any fan of Cats think it's stupid.

And the whole play is really about ...

Re: The Witcher (Netflix TV Series)

I watched the first episode earlier this week and thought it was merely okay, though most pilots usually are. I've not read the books (and fantasy isn't really a genre I read or watch). I'll still give the next few episodes a chance, but I'm not really expecting too much.
