Hi! It’s Annie! Around this time of year I would usually be at Disneyland celebrating the holidays with my family. Unfortunately, that isn’t possible considering the rightful closure of Disneyland. In my opinion it shouldn’t be the only park closed, but I digress. One of my favorite parts of the holiday season at Disneyland hasContinue reading “Christmas: Disneyland’s Christmas Parade”

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’”
Twins in Media: Dipper and Mabel vs. Poppet and Widget
Hi! It’s Annie! Another week of the twin showdown and now we have one that is truly going to hurt me, but this time it’s actually because both of these depictions are so good! The last time I posted I completely tore into pairs of twins that were so terrible that declaring a winner wasContinue reading “Twins in Media: Dipper and Mabel vs. Poppet and Widget”
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: 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”
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”
Disney: ‘The Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast’ in Tokyo Disneyland
Hi! It’s Annie! This is definitely not the first time I’ve posted about ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and it definitely won’t be the last. What can I say, I’ve always strongly related to Belle with her love of books. This movie is also just gorgeous. My love for this movie that has now spanned overContinue reading “Disney: ‘The Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast’ in Tokyo Disneyland”
Disney: The Problem With ‘The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad’
Hey! Hallie here! During the last few months I’ve found a bit more time to look into some of the random Disney movies I hadn’t gotten the chance to see before Disney+ was a thing. One of the ones that I was most interested in was ‘The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad’. The movie’sContinue reading “Disney: The Problem With ‘The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad’”
Twins in Media: Liv and Maddie
Hey! Hallie here! ‘Liv and Maddie’ was a show that came along a little while after I stopped watching Disney Channel. It wasn’t exactly influential to me when it aired, but my younger cousin watched it regularly, so it stayed on my radar. It’s probably one of the most recently popular depictions of twins inContinue reading “Twins in Media: Liv and Maddie”
