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”

A lot of those movies will be adaptations of ‘AContinue reading “Christmas: Top 3 Unique Retellings of ‘A Christmas Carol’”
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. There is absolutely no explaining how hard I laugh at this movie, but IContinue reading “Christmas: Best Underrated Jokes from ‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas’”
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”
Christmas: The Best Whos in Whoville
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”
Disney: ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ is the Perfect Christmas Movie
Hey! Hallie here! This movie’s focus on two different holidays has led to a very large debate about when you should watch it. Is it a Halloween movie, or is it a Christmas movie? Back in October I wrote a post about why you should watch this movie during Halloween. But I did say IContinue reading “Disney: ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ is the Perfect Christmas Movie”
Disney: The Story That Connects (Almost) All the Parks
Hey! Hallie here! Disney really likes storytelling in their parks. Usually, though, each of their storylines are confined to one ride or show. It isn’t like you can connect something like Space Mountain to It’s a Small World. Not that you’d want to. Surprisingly, there are several attractions you can connect. These aren’t just attractionsContinue reading “Disney: The Story That Connects (Almost) All the Parks”
Studio Ghibli: Characters That Deserve More Love
Hey! Hallie here! Studio Ghibli has created some of my favorite characters of all time. They’re just really good at crafting character arcs. Most Ghibli films have pretty well recognized characters, but there are some that I wish would get more recognition overall. There’s too many good ones I don’t see anyone mentioning. For thisContinue reading “Studio Ghibli: Characters That Deserve More Love”
