Crystal blue water, golden hour sunshine, delicious pasta, and plenty more lovely vibes. While watching Luca, you may come to forget it comes from the same company that made three Cars movies. It probably won’t…

Cars 2 is a cute little family-friendly movie that you can watch with your kids, right? WRONG. Cars 2 is the most violent, intense, and bizarre movie I have ever seen that is still entirely made for…

The tenth installment in the Fast and Furious franchise roared onto the scene this weekend with a pandemic high of $70 million. The shark may have been jumped, but the franchise is giving the box office…

It’s been pretty well established that Inside Out, Pixar’s fifteenth theatrical release, is a knockout masterpiece. The Atlantic praised the film as an example of Pixar “once again at the top of its game, telling…

Onward, a movie I had no expectations for, but I went to see it anyway because it comes from Pixar. It turned out to be a great decision for two reasons: there’s a hilarious short…

With a growing list of items that includes the cancellation of SXSW 2020, MGM pushing No Time To Die to November, and now Onward‘s lackluster first-place finish this weekend at the box office, the effects of…

2019 delivered some great cinema! While the return of great directors like Tarantino and Scorsese has been the highlight of awards season, we also saw some great directorial debuts on the indie scene. Films like…

The Lion King continues to be another strong hit for the Walt Disney Company. The latest in a recent line of remakes, the film is just shy of $1 billion at the end of its second…

June was…rough. We saw a slew of high-profile blockbusters flop hard; most notably, Dark Phoenix will lose Fox (Disney) around $100 million. Other films like The Secret Life of Pets 2 and Shaft also cratered,…

Believe it or not, films used to be without sound. However, once sound was introduced the art of silent film was quickly abandoned. While sound no doubt improves film in many ways, it isn’t always…

Toy Story 4 — the sequel we didn’t need but everyone asked for. And here we are, kicking off the summer with what people have joked would never come to fruition for a decade. Look, I’m…

It has been nine years since Toy Story left us in a proverbial puddle of tears with Toy Story 3. Generally speaking, it was considered the perfect ending to a perfect trilogy. But as Luke…

When it comes to classic fairy tale romance, Disney is king. But they’ve shown there’s more to love than princesses falling for princes. Some of their greatest love stories come from forgotten places, so we’re…

The following article on Disney and its outlook for 2019 was published in its original form on 71Republic on December 2nd.  Disney has always been a successful studio. One that often times has branded itself through…

When I was a kid, I remember watching A Bug’s Life (1998) over and over and over. I had quite the interest in bugs. I used to catch grasshoppers and potato bugs (pill bugs or roly polys…

The lead up to the release of Incredibles 2 wasn’t easy. Because of its delays in the foreign markets due to its coincidence with the World Cup, I’ve heard a few opinions on the movie…

Incredibles 2 has leapt the record for best animated opening of all time in a single bound. While watching the movie myself (and its predecessor the day before), I came upon a sudden revelation. The Incredibles…

It’s a shot in the dark, but I’m going to guess that, if you’re reading this article, you’re a human.  If you’re not, well, we have other issues to attend to other than this article.…

Arguably one of the best Pixar films, 2004’s The Incredibles left an indelible mark on movie lovers, acting as a great version of the Fantastic Four that we’ve yet to actually get onscreen.  While it probably took way too…
