Welcome to my weird world!
Wow. It’s been a while since I’ve watched a new movie that’s just plain fun. And I guess I should’ve expected plain fun if this out-of-nowhere film is from the same people behind Into The Spiderverse and The Lego Movie. This is a Sony Pictures Animation movie, but The Lego Movie was a Warner Bros.... Continue Reading →
Do I love thee? Do I love thee not? Everyone is bowing down to Raya in a story that definitely wouldn't have worked had this chosen to be the next Disney-princess-musical-adventure. And me not giving this a positive grade...it feels kind of wrong doing that. It gets so much right. If it had some polishes... Continue Reading →
This...was...incredible. I'm really happy to be able to post Onward after it's been out for a year now, the time right before everything shut down. I was stressed, but not seeing Onward when it was out has to be the stupidest thing I'd done in 2020. I mean, I knew I'd see it eventually. But... Continue Reading →
Wow, it's been a long time, T & J. Just feels like yesterday when my sister and I were in Blockbuster trying to agree on a movie to take home for the night and we were fighting more adamantly than you guys because we couldn't agree on a single one, so I thought your movie,... Continue Reading →
Pixar really makes groundbreaking animated films look easy. I'm ashamed to say I've never seen Onward. Things were so hectic by the time of its release that I guess I somehow wasn't in the mood for joy. Maybe I'll watch it before I go to bed. I'd better see it before I visit The Great...

This project was one I followed for a very long time. It was in some development hell from being in production from 2014-15 before it was cancelled a year later with some company merging worries. Then it got green-lit again and delayed a little bit, and finally, seven years after Grug, Eep, Guy, Ugga, Thunk,... Continue Reading →
What a wave of surprise! Sponge on the Run is the best SpongeBob movie yet, even better than the timeless, daring and jubilant first one from 2004 that I grew up with. I can’t voice my dislike for Sponge Out of Water enough. It was misleading, misguided, and jarringly took zilch seriously. More info about... Continue Reading →
I liked the Scooby-Doo cartoon that was on when I was a little kid old enough not to get creeped out at the monstrous faces. I mean, monster costumes. That was the What's-New version. Looking back the actual mysteries of who-dun-it were fairly easy, but I guess I often enjoyed guessing correctly. Not only that,... Continue Reading →
It's such a shame when you can see what they were going for - but you really dislike it nonetheless. Considering this movie takes the Ninja Turtles seriously, I feel extra bad for giving a harsh review. I don't think anyone who likes the Ninja Turtles deserves to be ridiculed by friends, classmates or work... Continue Reading →
My roommate from Hong Kong showed me this film. And as someone who's been somewhat disappointed with other critically acclaimed animated features this year, like The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and even Toy Story 4, I certainly now get why he was so excited to share this with me. I suspect we have... Continue Reading →
