Looking Back On..

In 2019 Disney gave us two of its 90s classic animated movies Aladdin and Lion King in live action versions and reactions were mixed as to be expected with such acclaimed movies and all the people who grew up with them being way too attached to the original films to want to see anything different … Read More “What worked & didn’t in Disney’s Lion King & Aladdin Live Action 2019 Adaptations” »

The Brave Little Toaster Trilogy is still relevant

Looking back on..

When I watched Toy Story 3 I was disappointed since I had already seen this story before and that was in a movie I loved as a kid “The Brave Little Toaster”. I used to love this movie and would watch it every time I had the chance and decided to check it out again to see if it held up only to realize that they made two direct to video sequels in the late 90s. I also found out two of these movies are actually adaptations of novels and only one being an original story. So, let’s have a quick look at the Brave Little Toaster trilogy.

Shia Labeaouf seems to be a somewhat polarizing figure but I’m rather indifferent besides being teased as a kid that I looked like him. He seems to have his alternative projects going on for the moment but let’s go back to simpler times and we were just kids watching Even Stevens and how it is.

Video Classic

Even before Disney ever owned Star Wars they had a section of their park dedicated to it and they would perform various fun movie inspired skits.

This time for Rogue One they used Epcot’s Spaceship Earth and with some clever lights they turend it into the Death Star to coincide with the spin-off film Rogue One which I talked about here. It works out pretty well and it’s a fun watch.

Listen back..

One day I”m cleaning the garage and I find my old The Nightmare Before Christmas Burger King watch I got as a child, I was in High School now and I needed a watch and I thought it was perfect and it was since many seemed to like it. It was only about a year later that the nightmare before christmas nostalgia hit and we had tons of new merchandise everywhere and now everyone had TNBC related stuff and it wasn’t as much fun wearing my Burger King watch.
