In my last Star Wars-heavy article, I put forth an honest and complete review of The Last Jedi. I can't fully comprehend the level of hatred the film is getting; but I think it's mainly based on what I referred to as "broken nostalgia" and perhaps a little bit of good ol' fashioned butt-hurt over not getting… Continue reading The Road to Star Wars: Episode IX

Typically, Disney's misfires are attempts at future… Continue reading Star Wars Goes Rogue

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Photos Released
Disney has been having varying success with its live-action recreations of classic animated films.
