Embarrassing fun fact, but on that aforementioned family vacation I got to experience Stitch’s Great Escape before it closed. And it actually scared me, because this was like a year before I actually got really into horror and stopped being a pussy. Now I’m a bit sad that I’ll never have a chance to experience the original AE, even though the last time we stopped by Disney wasn’t too great.

The original AE was great. I got to experience it as a kid where it freaked me out and as a teenager where it was super awesome seeing all the kids and some of their parents freak out. It was a 10/10 theme park ride.
 
idk bout the rest of you, but I'm just going to declare 1-3 as canon and anything that came after it is just fan-fic retardation I can avoid without a care in the world.

Seriously, between girlboss bo-peep in the 4th one, and now this, it's obvious they are pushing an agenda rather than making something good to watch.

I thought 3 was ass. Boring, aimless and way too many characters. Barbie and Ken were really fun but rest left me unsatisfied.

I didn't find Andy being all grown up particularly interesting, the topic was well explored in 2 already. The bear was unnecessary twist villain and too similar to Stinky Pete. The ending just dragged on and on. Andy leaving his most treasured toys to a random girl who already had plenty of toys felt pathetic.

3 is definitely inferior to the first two. I don't think I'd ever rewatch it for nostalgia's sake like I could 1 and 2 unless someone else was watching it in the same room as me. Still like it more than 4. 3 felt like it was trying to be a nice sendoff to the characters and their journey (even if it could've been done much better).

Whereas 4 immediately shits on what little development 3 ended on by showing Bonnie quickly let the toys collect dust. Then after an hour or so of assorted stupid celebrity cameo hijinx and slapdash character arcs, it ends with Woody ditching his friends for Bo Beep because he needs *purpose* in his life. It's the same sad, cynical sequel movie every popular franchise gets nowadays, and a particularly crap one. I can't imagine 5 will be any better.
 
It’s not much, but that 50 seconds amused and intrigued me more than anything else they’ve done all decade
Seconded, surprisingly. I am cautiously optimistic about this one.

in more dispiriting news:

To gatekeep this man from creatively building upon his own work for YEARS, and the ONLY time they allow him to do so again is after they've butchered it to such an appalling degree. Chris is an infinitely more patient man than I am, or he just really wants to work on these characters again, because if they had the absolute fucking nerve to do this with me, with something that I created, not only would I refuse, I'd go full on nigger chimp-out mode.

Actually, something I've noticed about Chris Sanders' career: after L&S, he's never made another fully original animated work - all of his subsequent works have either been adaptations (HTTYD, The Wild Robot), or projects that were restructured under his leadership (Croods).

Kiskaloo is right fucking there, Dreamworks! But no. Creatively bankrupt Pedowood would rather reheat yesterday's masterpieces to be today's regurgitated slop. *sigh*
 
I will hold out hope. Stanton was by far the best storyteller at Pixar in the glory days. Lets not forget he wrote and directed Nemo and Wall-E and those two are my favorite 3D animated films ever made. And this is his first feature film where he has both the writing and directing role since *checks notes* Finding Dory and John Carter

fuck
 
espn lost the sports monopoly after amazon and nbc picked up the important football shit. it's no longer a sports powerhouse. and disney gave up fox sports to buy fox.

is it better to need 2 or 3 paid services instead of 1? i dont know.
I'm a baseball fan. It's bad enough that I still have cable so I can watch my local team, because if I buy MLB.tv I can't see my local team because of reasons, but even if I could buy the service and get my team, I still can't watch all 162 games unless I also get Disney +, Apple TV, Youtube Plus, and God only knows what other streaming services. So I watch what I can and miss the rest because I refuse to subscribe to half a dozen services just so i can watch baseball.

ok, but would you rather disney have a monopoly on sports broadcasts? which is the lesser of two evils?

Not at all. I'm just shocked that considering how many pies Disney has it's fingers in (or outright owns) that the DoJ hasn't broken them up. But my objection isn't in Disney or even ESPN in this case so much as MLB making deals to keep me from watching games unless I subscribe to a bunch of services I don't particularly want just so a bunch of billionaires can make a few more bucks off of me. I get the economics of it all and payrolls and revenue streams etc., but it's just the principle of the thing.
 
If all they’ve watched growing up was new media, they might be put off from the look of older media or sort of judge the movie by the poster sort of thing.
To be fair, a lot of older animated movie covers really undersell what the movie is gonna look like, often looking pretty bland and wonky compared to the gorgeous rendering in the actual film for some reason.

While more modern film like frozen look identical to the cover. Its the same shit with comic books having completely seperate artists for the cover, fully misrepresenting what the contents will actually look like.

EDIT: trailer for the latest disney trainwreck is out.
The director for this slop is the same one who lead the Raya and Wish projects, both major and obvious flops compared to Encanto, so idk why the fuck they keep giving this woman more opportunities to ruin.
