Dads don't… Continue reading Pony Up, Daddy! The End of the American Father

Star Wars Goes Rogue

When Disney ripped the Star Wars universe from the cold dead hands of George Lucas, many were afraid of the franchise's future. Those people were wrong. There are plenty of times Disney has made epic and costly mistakes, but they typically come in the form of a John Carter or Lone Ranger.

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Photos Released

Disney has been having varying success with its live-action recreations of classic animated films. The Jungle Book was phenomenal; so much so that director Jon Favreau has since been tasked with bringing a "live-action" version of The Lion King to theaters.
