Re: Samurai Jack: The Birth of Evil (2003)

A good show was Samurai Jack that I used to watch as a child. I'm inquisitive about its watchability on the World Wide Web.

Re: Why does the Wilhelm Scream keep bothering me?

It sounds like you have a strong reaction to certain sound effects, such as the Wilhelm Scream, that can take you out of the movie-watching experience. While it's not uncommon to have preferences or sensitivities that affect your enjoyment of media, there are a few strategies you can try to help you...

Re: Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Live-Action)

Disney got caught flat-footed with a bad interpretation of the dwarfs and pivoted to something worse! Just cut your losses, Mouse House, and cancel this thing during the delay caused by "retrofitting" these new dwarfs the actors strike.

Re: Animated Views is 20!

I'm with Randall. For me, 2016's Moana, Sing, and Zootopia are just pretty good, bad, and middling respectively. That leaves only Trolls and Storks as good and Kubo as great. 2014 had the good Big Hero 6, the great Book of Life, and the amazing (and criminally robbed at the Oscars) Lego Movie. On to...

Re: Disney ends physical media in Australia & Asia!

What's weird is they're also removing their online presence as well. I get, but disagree, with taking that space back in stores. Not sure why they can't just keep them in stock online.
