Unlike ‘MyContinue reading “Studio Ghibli: Characters That Deserve More Love Part 2”

Christmas: In Defense of ‘The Nutcracker and the Four Realms’

Hi! It’s Annie! Yes, I do realize that this came out a couple years ago, but I actually just watched it yesterday and had some thoughts on it. I think you could say that the reaction to this movie was almost violently bad. Whether it was someone critiquing the movie for a misuse of actors,Continue reading “Christmas: In Defense of ‘The Nutcracker and the Four Realms’”

Disney: The Best Changes to the Haunted Mansion for Haunted Mansion Holiday

Hey! Hallie here! Around this time of year, I always plan to go on Haunted Mansion Holiday at least once. It’s the best time of the year to ride the Haunted Mansion, especially for a ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ fan. The premise of Haunted Mansion Holiday is Jack Skellington taking over the mansion and decoratingContinue reading “Disney: The Best Changes to the Haunted Mansion for Haunted Mansion Holiday”

Ghostbusters: Why Winston is Important

Hey! Hallie here! It’s Ernie Hudson’s birthday! In honor of this acting legend, I thought it was the perfect time to dive into my love of ‘Ghostbusters’. Specifically the character of Winston Zeddemore. The truth of this character is that he is underused and underappreciated. He’s important despite the studio rather than because of it.Continue reading “Ghostbusters: Why Winston is Important”

Disney: Why I Don’t Like Indiana Jones

Hey! Hallie here! I want to make clear that I’m not going to be talking about my dislike for the entire ‘Indiana Jones’ series. Because I don’t dislike it. The movies are (mostly) fun and enjoyable. I do, however, have a problem with the title character of this series. Indiana Jones is an incredibly dislikableContinue reading “Disney: Why I Don’t Like Indiana Jones”

Christmas: Best Underrated Jokes from ‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas’

Hi! It’s Annie! I’ve already mentioned how this is my favorite Christmas movie and I’ve actually already done another post on this. But around this time of year it can be really difficult for me to shut up about this movie.

Christmas: Max and Mona

Hi! It’s Annie! I think I’ve talked a lot by now about the extent to which I grew up with Disney. From the parks to watching all of the movies, my childhood was almost entirely Disney coded. What might be slightly weird about that to some but make complete sense to others is that ‘TheContinue reading “Christmas: Max and Mona”

Netflix Shows: ‘The Christmas Chronicles’ Review

Hey! Hallie here! This movie came out a couple of years ago on Netflix, but I never got a chance to watch it. I’m definitely one of those people who has a list of movies I watch every Christmas that, most of the time, is too extensive to add things to. However, given that I’mContinue reading “Netflix Shows: ‘The Christmas Chronicles’ Review”

Hi! It’s Annie! December means that it is officially Christmas time (though that doesn’t mean I wasn’t celebrating before) and I can officially celebrate with my favorite Christmas movie. If you read my last post you might have caught a reference to this movie. I don’t know exactly what it is about this live actionContinue reading “Christmas: The Best Whos in Whoville”
