  • Ep.33 Cinderella 3 A twist in Time
    Sep 9 2024

    Hello Disney Friends!! Today is Megan's last episode before her maternity leave so as a special episode we are gonna be doing one of her favorite movies Cinderella 3 a twist in time!!Cinderella 3 was released straight to DVD that was released in 2007 and is supposed to take place after the events of Cinderella 2 ( we personally disagree). This completely original story brought lots of talent since its been many years since the first cinderella movie such as Susanne Blakeslee (known from Fairly odd parents) to play Lady Tremaine and Jennifer Hale as Cinderella.This Movie, despite being a direct to video sequel, brought many things to the world of cinderella. It gave Lady Tremaine a better villain arc compared to the original movie. Anastasia, one of the step sister was also set up to receive her redemption for the 2nd movie and this movie brought on some really funny songs that get stuck in your head. Its self awareness of how dated the first movie provide much needed comic relief and really stretches the characters we know and love.

  • Ep.27 Live Action vs Animation: Beauty and the Beast
    Aug 5 2024

    Hello Friends! Today we are doing another Live action vs Animation talking about the 1991 and 2017 Disney classic Beauty and the Beast! Beauty and the Beast originally released in 1991 by Disney Animation Studios and starred notable actors such as Paige O'Hara as Belle, Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Potts, Richard White as Gaston and Robby Benson as the Beast. The 1991 Disney classic also went on to win multiple awards such as an Oscar for best song/music and golden globes for best motion picture, best song and best score. Music in the the Animated movie was written by Alan Menken (who also returned for the live action) and Howard Ashman who died months before the release of the movie and was then dedicated to him for "giving a mermaid a voice and a beast his soul". In 2017 Disney remade this Disney masterpiece into a live action movie starring Emma Watson as Belle, Dan Stevens as the Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, Josh Gad as Lefou, Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, and Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts. The live action version of the movie wielded some mixed reviews from fans due to Disneys noticeable pattern of remaking a lot of their animated classics but was able to obtain a 71% on the tomato meter by rotten tomatos and an overall 80% for the audience score. These movies both are strong versions of such a compelling love story so come join us as we talk about the differences between the movies and where the shortcomings lie.
