Re: Your LOVELY Movie Viewing Log [Édition 2023]

I went out to see The Color Purple (2023) last night. I had never seen the original film so I watched it on Max the night prior. That may have been a mistake because The Color Purple (1985) was vastly superior in just about every way to the 2023 film. I will say, my friend went in blind and she rea...

Re: Disney Animation on Blu-ray in 2019-Present

Take this with a HUGE grain of salt, but Song of the South is reportedly coming to BD January 24th. It's not an official Disney release, but a (licensed? bootleg?) European one. https://www.dvd-store.it//video/blu-ray/id-81525/i-racconti-dello-zio-tom-special-edition-500-copie-2-blu-ray-disc-booklet

Re: "Wicked" or "Oz the Great and Powerful"?

I saw Wicked while I was in NYC this past week. It was exhilarating, it made me tear up a few times. I've listened to the soundtrack for years so I knew most of the songs by heart, and of course, I've read the synopsis on Wikipedia, but neither can replace the experience of seeing it and hearing it ...

It appears Anastasia is coming to Disney Parks -- sort of. Dylan Bonner is creating several new pieces to be exhibited at the Epcot's Festival of the Arts, and he posted a sneak peek of one of them: https://i.ibb.co/cw4rwv2/Screenshot-20231203-232108-Instagram.jpg I don't know if this is indicative ...

Re: Wish

Patricier, you're confusing objective thinking with majority thinking, two very different and quite incomparable concepts. Sometimes they overlap, sometimes they don't. You don't have to like Star Wars , Blade Runner or Fantasia to recognize they're objectively well-written, well-acted, well-directe...

Re: Wish

This is giving cult behavior. No studio (or company, or organization) should be exempt from valid criticism. Regardless of how much you enjoyed Wish , the point stands that it's objectively a badly written and assembled movie (and I enjoyed it, but I also enjoyed Catwoman . That doesn't stop me from...

Re: Wish

It’s not really a plot hole, but more of a plot contrivance. They had the grandfather turning 100 so it would tie into the whole Disney 100 celebration. That’s it, there’s no other reason. For the purpose of the story, it would have made no difference if it was Asha’s mother’s 50th birthday or one o...

I just hope this was a case of posting the link based on the title of the article without checking its source or reading its contents. Anything Breitbart-related is a huge red flag.

FFS, just let people like OR dislike the movie as they please, and stop hounding them across the internet.

Re: Wish

I completely agree with your assessment of the Queen, UF. It’s a strange position she’s placed in, she’s obviously emotionally invested in the whole thing, but the way the conflict/relationship resolves is not what you’d expect given the rest of the movie. It’s almost as if her role was a remnant of...
