I don't vividly remember the first Maleficent movie and this time, I'm not blaming my poor memory. It was a forgettable retcon of a beloved Disney story that had Angelina Jolie's face plastered all over it. The sequel is actually just more of that but with less substance. Don't be fooled by the subtitle, this isn't a movie that will introduce any b...

The way Disney sees things nowadays, adaptations of past shows they've done mean "taking the same old story and just prettying it up with either live-action theatrics or awesome tech demos for realistic 3D CG". But here's the thing: adaptations can also mean a chance to improve upon the source material while staying true to what makes it stand out...
Disney's The Lion King (1994) is one of the most beloved animated classics in cinematic history and is a fondly nostalgic piece of many childhoods.

Since its initial release, Dis...

As a fan of cartoons and the animated medium, be it Western or Japanese, the late 80s and 90s were glorious, from the Under The Sea shenanigans of Sebastia...
