Re: Lookin' good!

Btw, is the main site in any danger of being disconnected? Since it has no more updates (last post in May 2020). The review pages for the animated movies are very helpful since most places don't list or go through them. And obviously most were on DVD. I know even the reviews themselves are actually ...

Re: Turning Red

I've noticed Canadians on my social media feeds going nuts for this, because of the Toronto setting. With this and Luca, I wonder if we're going to start seeing a new trend of Pixar films where directors tell stories inspired by their childhoods and set in places they grew up in, where the characte...

Re: Coco

Oh, yeah, Disney has definitely suffered from the PIXAR infestation of WDAS the past decade. WIR, BH6, and Zootopia are the absolute worst examples of it--although I think Ralph and Judy at least have the Disney "I Want (Something Everyone Else Thinks Is Impossible)" outsider stories driv...

Re: Iwájú (Disney+ Series)

I personally think it's wonderful they reached out to Kugali and offered to bring their story to a wider audience. I was actually thinking not too long ago that African films and series don't seem to get much distribution or attention in North America or Europe. And when they do, they're often abou...

Re: Encanto

Well, I do like the photorealism and don't have a problem with its use - just that Disney have become really repetitive with it now. As mentioned, Moana, Raya and Encanto definitely look like they are all in the same world and Frozen, Tangled and even Big Hero 6 aren't exactly too far off either. Bi...

Re: Encanto

I actually dig the trailer but, when are they going to get new directors? Of course Pixar had the same directors for a long time and are arguably still having growing pains, but no reason for Disney to follow the same path. Guess it doesn't help all the princesses, for lack of a better descriptor, a...

Re: Has Disney+ affected the value of Disney physical media?

It's only dirt cheap now in Western countries. If only all that excess, unwanted supply could be available in other countries. There was only one physical media retailer here and they closed during the pandemic. Prices were always obscene as well. Sad to see the oversupply yet being unable to get th...

Re: Pixar's Luca

With Raya, Kelly Marie Tran can say whatever she wants, but that doesn't make it true. In fact, she's the one queerbaiting and pandering, stringing people along where there was no intention to - and then people want to take it out on Disney? And I don't even like Disney as a corporation, but come o...

They say it'll be the first without an audio commentary. Is that true?

Wonder why Enrico would not record one or why Disney would choose to cut it.

Re: LGBT Disney

Sure, you can start yourself but here you are on a Disney fan site. If Disney aren't making the movies you want them to make, then watch other movies. Hate-watching or trying to force fan theories down other people's throats doesn't help anyone. Are you American? Do you think any of your companies ...

OK, you have a point there. The characters being perceived as monsters or having to hide in plain sight didn't occur to me, and you're probably right that now that Disney is pushing diversity people have higher hopes they could finally get LGBT protagonists. The way the characters interact with eac...

Re: LGBT Disney

This has just confirmed my suspicions that Disney is the most homophobic company that could ever exist. They can play at being woke all they want, they've never made any real gay representation and they still don't care too. Instead of making Elsamaren canon they're focused on harassing gay employe...

Re: Lightyear (Pixar Film)

I agree. It reeks of desperation and greed. I'm surprised they haven't announced a Frozone spin-off yet considering the fan demand and the increased focus on diversity. Agreed with both of you. Not that I'm not looking forward to it, but really? :| After that garbage ending to the fourth one, they ...

Why does John Lasseter talk as if anyone cares about Cars 3?

No one does. The Good Dinosaur proved there is no floor for Pixar now. Unnecessary sequels have been bricking it. No one wants a Cars 3. No one wanted a Cars 2. Cars 2 was also some of the worst crap out there. Cannot wait until Cars 3 fails to make $100m. Lasseter has lost the plot. (been awhile th...

Re: Zootopia

Rank from (first viewing) memory

1. Wreck It Ralph
2. Tangled
3. Zootopia
4. Frozen
5. Bolt
6. Winnie the Pooh
7. Big Hero 6
8. Princess and the Frog

Not sure if we count Meet the Robinsons and Chicken Little? When did Lasseter come on? MtR would be #6 or #7, definitely ahead of BH6.

Re: Lasseter takeover--good or bad?

They should have noted Cars 2, Brave, Monsters Uni and Good Dinosaur.

Especially the Good Dinosaur, given that it was released after Inside Out, which I suppose was the first one they initiated help, given that it had so many more production struggles than IO, and it never overcame them.

Animation Documentaries/Making Ofs

Hi, all.

Can anyone tell me if there's a master list of animated documentaries or making ofs out there.

Disney or otherwise.

Just watched the Zootopia one by Fusion, which was brilliant, or so I thought.

Thanks!

What a stupid topic. Must every post be the same CGI-bashing lamenting Disney's newfound destruction? You are annoying and bring no new points to the table.
