365 Film Challenge Part 23: Disney Special

Film #25: Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure I've actually seen a couple of the Tinker Bell movies before, because they used to have them on the Sky Movies Disney channel and they're quite short, sweet little flicks and WoM is Disney obsessed, which has reignited and fuelled my own love for all things Disney. …

Film Review: Mulan

Note: This is film #119 of my 365 Film Challenge. Disney's run of remaking their animated movies in live action has been hit and miss for me. Which some have been great films that have referenced the originals while changing or developing certain aspects to good effect (The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast), others …

Disney Classics #46: Chicken Little

Note: Film 28 of the 365 film challenge. This is the last Disney film I needed to watch to have seen all of the Disney classic movies to date, and one I had low expectations of because it's one of those forgotten Disney movies that doesn't get mentioned a lot. Loosely, and I mean loosely, …

Disney Classics #47: Meet the Robinsons

This film feels like a forgotten Disney movie, and suffers from falling during a period where Disney were struggling to find their groove consistently and Pixar were in the ascendancy. It's a shame because while it's not up there with the best it's still a sweet and funny movie, filled with some nice retro sci-fi …

Film Review: Artemis Fowl

Note: This is number 30 of the 365 Film Challenge. Oh, and there are spoilers ahead. Urgh. This movie was woeful, the idea of a young lad discovering that his dad is an international thief and criminal mastermind, and then learns that all of the stories he was told about fairies are true and there's …

Disney Classics #39: Dinosaur

This is one of the Disney movies I missed at the cinema when it came out and I've never caught up with it because it's one of those Disney flicks that has kinda been forgotten about. It's easy to see why. The plot of this movie is a little dull and the characters aren't particularly …

Disney Classics #30: Beauty and the Beast

This was the first animated movie to get nominated for the Best Picture at the Oscars, and while I'm a big fan of that year's winner (The Silence of the Lambs), this would have been a deserved winner, because it is, for me, easily one of the best movies Disney have ever made. It's just …

365 Film Challenge Part 3: Short Controlled Bursts

Watched a few shorts on Disney+ and under the challenge rules 5% of my total can be short films, which works out at 18 short movies. So, here's the first batch of shorts. Film #7: Out A young man prepares to leave for the big city with his boyfriend, but has yet to come out …

Disney Classics #42: Lilo and Stitch

I love this movie, and Stitch is easily one of my favourite Disney characters (right up there, with Genie, Baloo, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider), he's incredibly cute for starters, but he's also this manic ball of destructive energy. The plot of this movie is that Stitch is the creation of self-styled evil genius Jumba (David …

Film Review: Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made

Note: This is film #16 in my 365 Film Challenge. I saw a trailer for this movie ages ago, and it looked the kind of quirky, fun flick that I'd enjoy and so as soon as we got Disney+ this went on my watchlist, but as WoM wasn't feeling it, getting around to it got …
