I couldn't... help myself. Watching the Disney film again made me curious about the other adaptations of Pinocchio. I heard the best one is this 6 episode miniseries Le avventure di Pinocchio (1972), but that's beyond my current capabilities because I don't understand Italian (and there doesn't seem to be any dubbed or subbed version … Continue reading The Adventures of Pinocchio (1996) and Pinocchio (1971) dual review

Pinocchio (1940) review
Rated: 4.5 / 5 I may have to revise my top 50 films list after this. Yet another childhood film I haven't seen in a long time, only to fall in love with it all over against after all these decades. It's been a while since I've seen a film I thought was so good … Continue reading Pinocchio (1940) review
One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961) review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 Wokeness: 1 / 5 Got the urge to rewatch this after around 15 years since the last time (man it's been so long since I've seen this movie). Pretty much because I heard about this new Cruella movie Disney is making, which I'm currently not interested in seeing, because I have … Continue reading One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961) review

My Top 25 Animated Films (not made by Disney, Laika, or Ghibli)
So I tried to make this into a ranked list, from 25-1. But I couldn't do it. Because my enjoyment factor for this films is too dependent on my mood of the moment, which varies day by day. So I'll just list them in a somewhat random order (except the last one, I save the … Continue reading My Top 25 Animated Films (not made by Disney, Laika, or Ghibli)
Jumanji animated series (1996-1999) review
So you remember a while back when I did a review for both Jumanji movies, and briefly mentioned that there was an animated show back in the 90s? Well, I finally got around to purchasing a copy, and watched the whole thing. It was mainly nostalgia that drove me to revisit it more than curiosity. … Continue reading Jumanji animated series (1996-1999) review
American Pie and The Killing Joke; dual R-rated reviews
Been a while. I've been pre-occupied with developing a fan-made expansion for an old board game from the late 70s, and still am. I'll eventually get around to posting more on that topic when it's closer to being finished. But anyway, reviews for some films that aren't in theaters. The first review is going to … Continue reading American Pie and The Killing Joke; dual R-rated reviews
Moana Review
Rated: 3/5 This movie is like Zootopia. The first 20 minutes is full of nothing but Disneyfied "I wanna live my dream, but my parent/parental figure says no" bullshit that we've seen hundreds of times in hundreds of other Disney movies. "I wanna go out into the vast ocean because of my dreams and curiosity!" … Continue reading Moana Review
