Um, isn't regular Crunchyroll ALREADY available free with ads?
And with an actual slate of titles people have heard of?

(While PlutoTV has 24/7 FWA streaming-broadcast channels of Sailor Moon, Lupin III, Naruto, and Case Closed.)

Vanilla flavored. With marshmallows.
While elsewhere in the store, PUMPKIN SPICE Cheerios and Chex are available?...

And Flintstones was also quite remarkable - I love Mark Russell as a writer (just bought his recent Superman book he did with Allred). I loved his Snagglepuss, too, though that was a really weird take. Although those were digging up all the Millennial-hipster Cartoon Network passive-hostile cliche'...

Another point is that retail never really WAS the main outlet for DVD/Blu buyers: DVD, Blu and Blu3D were all so impossible to find in big-box stores--and insanely MSRP overpriced when they were--that core early-adopters gravitated to Amazon and private company-website sales like Criterion, while on...

Darn. I clicked thinking it was about Dynamite Magazine. :( And H-B reportedly didn't like the CN-cliche'd snide-hipster take on Snagglepuss and The Flintstones DC was originally planning, so unless this is another under-the-radar thing, DC may have had to make a few creative concessions to get them...

I don't know what Fox deal got them Criss Angel, but he, alongside David Copperfield, were one of the two made-for-TV frauds that enraged REAL stage magicians to create the Masked Magician series (also for Fox): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rrERsDSQIs ("But he's supposed to be fake, did you thin...

GDT had nothing to do with MVA, either. :wink: He was at the studio consulting on other projects, which is the accepted explanation for why Link is basically an undisguised Hellboy with gills. So…'Flix isn’t the second coming after all then? ;) After all these guys work out that you can’t basically...

In my opinion, the most unbelievably overrated DWA film is, without a doubt, Monsters vs. Aliens. Reese Witherspoon is pretty bad, it never feels like anything is truly at stake, and so many of the jokes fall FLAT. Even Shrek the Third had some good gags. This didn’t. :roll: MvA felt like a feel-go...

And DreamWorks has had plenty of commercial and critical hits, including two last year alone!

...DRINK!

\Same. The only DreamWorks movie I like is The Prince of Egypt.

Yeah, but that's their pre-Sinbad 2-D days. Doesn't count.

Well…Ben’s being just a little harsh on influencers. A LITTLE. I know "influencers", ie. YouTube movie reactors, have pretty much supplanted much of streaming TV for me, but not movies. DreamWorks was basically hit by two problems: 1) The pandemic-era studio fascination with streaming, where the In...

No, TS5 is not going to “pretend that TS4 didn’t happen.” TS4 won an Oscar and made a billion dollars, it’s not a “hated” sequel by any stretch. Dacey says "No, fans did NOT hate it, it made a million shmillion dollars on its opening weekend, so there, that proves it!"....DRINK!! Which is why I thi...

Well, not so much throwing Bonnie under the bus as Bonnie throwing Woody under the bus. (Leaving aside current management that wanted to toss Woody completely offscreen and make the entire movie about Liberated Superheroine-Caped Bo Peep traveling the world to do whatever she wants without personal ...

Finally got around to starting it-- Here, we get the " Ethnic daily life in fantasy environment" with the second-generation-immigrant metaphor laid on from the first scene, and clearly Indian, from the Bollywood music that erupts on the soundtrack every time Ember goes into action. But...it's a STEP...

And Princess Leia was never a Disney Princess. Except in the equally "original" minds of a hundred Internet memers and Park Armchair-Imagineers, the MINUTE and second they heard Disney bought Lucas. Hence the pre-emptive pronouncement, since Disney had already gone through the problems of putting G...

I see the Texes are mixed in (Cross Country Detours, Hamateur Night, I Wanna Be a Sailor), so I can stop asking for that "Tex at Warner" collection to go with the Tex at MGMs. But yeah, this list is definitely for the Archive obscure-toon connoisseur crowd, that doesn't want a lot of corporate Bugs ...
