  1. I thought the way they brought the Internet to life was clever and cool.  And of course, that Disney princess scene is one of the funniest spoofs in years.  I died of laughter when Merida spoke.  But the story, the dynamic between the characters, and their rash decisions were frustrating at times.  Also, I can't be the only one that finds Ralph and Vanellope's friendship a little creepy at times.

     

    Still, a fun movie overall, and visually dazzling.

  3. Overall, a great film.  Beautifully animated with lovable characters and an emotional ending.  Love the magical themes, the quirkiness, the bond between the brothers, the adventure element.  It's not the best Pixar movie but for me it was as entertaining as many in the top tier, and I love seeing original content from a studio that's relied too much on sequels in the past dedace.  

  4. I've only seen 14 movies released in 2019.  Will watch Joker soon.

    So underrated when compared to other Pixar films.  Easily one of my favorite childhood films.  It's funny, clever, charming, has a great score, the characters are lovable and memorable, and it was incredibly animated for its time.

  7. Saw TLK last night in 3D.  It was okay, passable enough as a remake but it definitely lacked the charm of the original.  I echo the sentiments that it was too serious and the technological achievements with the CGI were at the expense of genuine emotional depth.  The characters looked so wooden when trying to convey emotion.  Plus, there were few genuine laughs in this.  

     

    Still, there's enough to enjoy for the nostalgia.  I just don't know how much of an impact it will have with those that never saw the original. So it remains to be seen what kind of legs this will have after the initial buzz dies down a bit.  Lack of direct competition will help at least.

     

    My least favorite of the 9 films I've seen in theaters this year.  Didn't hate it, but didn't love it.  The Jungle Book and Aladdin are miles ahead as far as the recent Disney remakes.  I even enjoyed Beauty & the Beast more.

  8. By Sunday TS4 will zoom past the unadjusted grosses of Shrek 3, Minions, and Zootopia.

     

    Hopefully it can beat Frozen's 400.7 million, then for a spot in the top 5 ever for animation it'll have to pass....TS3. Should get quite close, if LK doesn't steal away all the family audience. 

  9. Update, July 21:

     

    1. Avengers: Endgame 

    2. Spider-Man: Far From Home
    3. Toy Story 4 
    4. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World 
    5. Aladdin 
    6. Dragon Ball Super: Broly
    7. Captain Marvel
    8. Shazam!

    9. The Lion King

     

    I liked all of them, but TLK was easily my least favorite.
