Hey! Hallie here! I recently rewatched ‘Spirited Away’ and, as much as I enjoy it, there’s always one character I come away completely conflicted about. That would be No-Face, the monster that Chihiro lets into the bathhouse who begins to eat everything once they arrive. Including other spirits. It’s difficult to forget No-Face’s horrifying mouthContinue reading “Studio Ghibli: Is No-Face Forgivable?”

Disney: Raya and the Last Dragon Review
Hi! It’s Annie! Over the weekend I finally got around to watching ‘Raya and the Last Dragon’ even though it’s already been out for weeks. Going into this I had fairly high expectations. Most of this was because I watched footage of the ‘D23’ (Disney convention in Anaheim) event where they announced it and IContinue reading “Disney: Raya and the Last Dragon Review”
Disney: Lilo and Stitch Underrated Characters
Hi! It’s Annie! Happy Easter everyone! Summer is still a couple months away, but it doesn’t feel like it. At least here in California, the weather is acting like summer is already here. But also knowing California, the weather might change drastically again. So while it’s still feeling like summer around here, I decided toContinue reading “Disney: Lilo and Stitch Underrated Characters”
Comfort Movies: Now You See Me
Hi! It’s Annie! It’s that time again where I need to talk about some of my favorite comfort movies that have gotten me through this entire year of quarantine. ‘Now You See Me’ is a movie that I can say with absolute confidence was definitely slept on. Maybe you’ve heard of it in passing, maybeContinue reading “Comfort Movies: Now You See Me”
Comfort Movies: The Muppets
Hi! It’s Annie! I absolutely refuse to put this under the Disney category because Jim Henson’s work should be recognized as his own, but there are several Muppet movies that are very comforting to me. You have ‘Muppets in Space’, ‘Muppet Treasure Island, ‘The Muppet Movie, ‘Muppets Take Manhattan’ among many other Muppet movies thatContinue reading “Comfort Movies: The Muppets”
Books: Peter Pan is Misunderstood
Hi! It’s Annie! I’ve done a post on the best adaptations of Peter Pan before, which was very fun because I absolutely love Peter Pan; but I don’t think I was able to say everything I wanted to about the character of Peter himself. (I’ve also been thinking about Peter Pan more because of ATEEZContinue reading “Books: Peter Pan is Misunderstood”
Disney: ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ is Underrated
Hi! It’s Annie! “You threw off my groove!” ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ has been around for a while now and is definitely one of my favorite Disney films. It’s not every day that you see Disney dip it’s toes into a buddy film style comedy, which is exactly what happened with this brilliant movie. It’sContinue reading “Disney: ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ is Underrated”
Comfort Movies: ‘Groundhog Day’
Hey! Hallie here! It’s Groundhog Day so I’m going to push off the weekly Twins in Media post to talk about this amazing movie. I feel like watching this movie every year on February 2nd is a tradition for many families, so I don’t really have to explain how great this movie is. But ifContinue reading “Comfort Movies: ‘Groundhog Day’”
Disney: The Princesses Who Deserve The Hate And The Ones That Don’t
Hi! It’s Annie! As some of the older Disney movies are looked at again, and with some of them being questionably remade, the Disney princesses have been specifically scrutinized. This isn’t without reason; many people have been looking back at them to see which princesses are actually good female representation. Even though there are definitelyContinue reading “Disney: The Princesses Who Deserve The Hate And The Ones That Don’t”
Comfort Movies: Jim Henson’s ‘Labyrinth’
Hi! It’s Annie! Given the current circumstances, I’m kind of surprised that I didn’t come up with this category earlier. But I was particularly reminded of this one because it has been rainy and snowy where I’m at, and I love to watch comfort fantasy movies when the weather is bad. Especially Jim Henson’s ‘Labyrinth’.Continue reading “Comfort Movies: Jim Henson’s ‘Labyrinth’”
