The Nightmare Before Christmas

The movie starts off very dreary and boring but that fits the Tim Burton way of doing things. I never really got into this movie when I watched it before. I try again every other Halloween or so but things haven’t changed. This viewing fell in line with my previous ones. Jack walks a whileContinue reading “The Nightmare Before Christmas”

Hocus Pocus

I watch this movie pretty much every Halloween so I don’t expect to notice too many new things in this one. I find it interesting that when this movie was originally released in July. Whose bright idea was that? Why wouldn’t you release it closer to Halloween? If you haven’t watched this in a while,Continue reading “Hocus Pocus”

The Adventures of Huck Finn

I didn’t love that this movie had lengthy and boring opening credits but it made me realize how many future stars were in the movie, including Robbie Coltrane and Anne Heche. It also made me realize that this is not the movie I thought it was. I was thinking this was Tom and Huck starringContinue reading “The Adventures of Huck Finn”

A Far Off Place

This movie is not on Disney+. This is probably due to the amount of violence. There is a lot of murder and attempted murder in this one. I was able to watch it free on YouTube. However, the quality is exactly how you would expect a movie from the 90s bootlegged onto YouTube would be.Continue reading “A Far Off Place”

Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey

Let’s just say, I think my dog Watt enjoyed this one more than I did. I love that the humans are described as belonging to their pets. If you don’t tear up at least 20 times during this movie, you’re probably a monster. This movie had a lot of lines that my sister and IContinue reading “Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey”

The Muppet Christmas Carol

So I’m pretty sure this is the first Jim Henson and Disney co-production. It was the first time I noticed the Kermit the Frog Jim Henson logo. I don’t have a ton to say about this movie. It follows the standard Christmas Carol storyline. One thing for sure is that frogs and pigs can notContinue reading “The Muppet Christmas Carol”

The Mighty Ducks

The opening scene is an introduction/flashback to Gordon’s days as a Hawk, the announcer is kind of mean. Interestingly, he’s the same announcer when Gordon is a coach. The chase scene reminds me of Home Alone. When the kids are in the hockey shop, Charlie spills the whole rack of hockey sticks. I wonder ifContinue reading “The Mighty Ducks”

Honey, I Blew Up the Kid

If you grew up in the 90s, you might think that’s not the name you remember for this movie. I remember the movie being Honey, I Blew Up the Baby. It turns out that this title was used for promos but shortly after the movie was released people were upset and they changed the title.Continue reading “Honey, I Blew Up the Kid”

Newsies

The first thing I noticed in this one was the familiar faces that will show back up in The Mighty Ducks. It had to be annoying for the guys that write up the headlines on the giant chalkboard that a kid just comes up and writes “STRIKE” across their hard work. I find it interestingContinue reading “Newsies”

Beauty and the Beast

Full disclosure before you start reading, I watched this after a few glasses of wine while playing a Beauty and the Beast drinking game with some friends. Our insights will either be great or mildly deranged. I thought about rearranging our thoughts to organize them by character but I left it in chronological order. TheContinue reading “Beauty and the Beast”
