Re: Elemental

Came in not expecting anything anything for this one, but Little Dude has been super excited for it ever since the first teaser. Loved the immigrant aspect of the story, and feeling like there’s no room for personal choices when you’re seemingly guilted into pleasing your family. Also loved that Emb...

Re: The Universe has stomped on me thread. Rant or clear the air

I just mentioned in the Heat thread that I was at the beach yesterday (or rather, the day before as my sense of time is completely skewed) and fell as we were walking over a bed of some large rocks. I might have been fine if I hadn’t exhausted myself from going down and back up the ramp of the cliff...

Re: Uncharacteristic June Heat???

We went to the Crystal Cove beach yesterday. It was cloudy and even slightly foggy, so the heat wasn’t that bad. I didn’t get to play in the ocean much though, because I fell on some rocks on the way down! Pulled a muscle in one of my legs and I’m pretty sure I broke at least 3 of my toes on the oth...

Re: Halloween 2022 (Wheeeeeeee!)

I grew up in a small town, but there were a lot of tick-or-treaters roaming around and it didn’t look far off from what you see from Hollywood. They didn’t close down our streets, but traffic was slow and close to non-existent in the residential areas; for example, the street I grew up on was short ...

Re: Disney Princesses Got a Makeover

I guess this might be the best thread to mention that I’ve been enjoying some of the new artwork appearing on Princess merchandise. I’ve taken a couple of pocket folders I bought at Dollar Tree and have repurposed them into discbound notebook covers. https://i.gyazo.com/0a0c3b8df611f8d88c73e02912f0e...

Re: Dame Angela Lansbury R.I.P.

She always seemed like such a wonderful, classy lady. My admiration of her came early in life, as my mom was a fan long before I was born; I was very delighted as a kid when I’d first learned she was doing a voice in the then upcoming Beauty and the Beast. I knew she was getting up there in age, and...

So apparently Gideon and Honest John are a couple.

Or it might just be Gideon’s wishful thinking?

Amy, Rose Dome, thank you very much, so happy that you’re enjoying!!! I try to create things that I would like to be able to own myself.

Re: WDAS Canada

I’m not up on my history, but I recall that they had a hand-drawn studio up there back in the day of the direct-to-video sequels; for a time I was in correspondence with a Canadian animator that had worked on scenes of The Little Mermaid 2 before the studio closed, and he was able to give me a basic...

Re: Treasure Planet Appreciation Thread

Just to add my two cents from the original theatrical release … At the time, many potential audience members felt that the premise itself was laughably illogical; space doesn’t have air, so how would you sail ships through them? How would you breathe?! Why is Disney doing this weird mix of old vs. n...

Re: Goofy "How to Stay at Home" Shorts on Disney+!

I absolutely love the concept of these shorts, and it’s welcoming to get some finished hand-drawn work from these amazing artists. As for the overly-clean line art … I can deal with that, but who wants to bet it was some exec’s bright idea to go for this look? Conceptually, it’s kind of similar to w...
