Jab’s Disney Reviews: Winnie The Pooh & The Aristocats

The worst that one could say of The AristoCats is that it is unmemorable. It’s smoothly executed, of course, and enjoyable, but neither its superficial story nor its characters have any resonance.-Leonard Maltin THE ARISTOCATS (1970): Written by: Tom McGowan & Tom Rowe (Original Book), Larry Clemmons, Eric Cleworth, Vance Garry, Julius Svendsen, Frank Thomas & Ralph Wright BLEH. A movie all about jazz music (one … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: Winnie The Pooh & The Aristocats

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (106-108)

The Sailors lend themselves REALLY well to fancy fanart. And we’re back for more episodes! Hopefully with MORE exposition, now that Chibi-Usa is back and we can start HER little bit of characterization. And we hit the halfway point of Sailor Moon S, which is good, because that’s about when they really kick things into overdrive. EPISODE #106: The girls are visiting High Schools now, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (106-108)

Ranking My Excitement On The New MCU Trailer

If there’s one thing the MCU is undeniably good for, it’s making me think “Boy, I hope I don’t die before _____”. For years, it was “Boy, I hope I don’t die before we resolve all this Thanos stuff in the MCU!”. And I didn’t! It was great. But I also had nothing left to look forward to except a pandemic. Well today, Kevin Feige, … Continue reading Ranking My Excitement On The New MCU Trailer

Classic Review: The Big Sick

Marvel gifted us with a trailer for Shang-Chi this week in what appears to have been a surprise release given the lead actor, Simu Liu’s, frankly adorable reaction on Twitter. It’s admittedly a pretty rad trailer. I had not been too stoked for a Shang Chi movie for a few reasons. First of all, he’s a character I have barely any comics experience with. Secondly, … Continue reading Classic Review: The Big Sick

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (101-105)

Sailor Moon and Mars reacting to Sailor Chibi-Moon’s debut. Pretty fitting. Welcome back! When last we left off, we learned that The Silence is coming- a potential… Armageddon, basically. The Sailors are all still after the Talismans, along with the villains known as the Death Busters. Kaolinite and the shadowy “Professor” are still engaging in their mad scheme. EPISODES #101 & 102: It’s Usagi’s birthday! … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (101-105)

SWO Draft: Best Movie Soundtracks!

This month’s draft was… NOT my forte. But I gave it the old college try anyway! When I got together with this month’s guests–Pint O Comics, So Wizard, and Flicks X-Rayed–to discuss our next draft, we ultimately settled on Best Movie Soundtracks. Music remains not really my best genre. But I do like movies, and I know which ones kind of make me bop along, … Continue reading SWO Draft: Best Movie Soundtracks!

Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (97-100)

DVD Box Set wooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Welcome back! We now enter the set that includes the ONE-HUNDREDTH episode of Sailor Moon (and is thus the mid-point for the entire series). We’ve just learned that the Talismans both sides are searching for are apparently to be combined into the Holy Grail, which will be wielded by The Messiah. In short: Shit is now Biblical. This one features lots … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (97-100)

Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Sword in the Stone

THE SWORD IN THE STONE (1963): Written by: T.H. White (original story), Bill Peet This is arguably one of the most forgotten Disney Animated Canon films, at least among those that were entirely one story and not collections of shorts. I remember it vaguely as a kid, because I saw something where an old wizard was shapechanging into animals along with a young kid. this seemed … Continue reading Jab’s Disney Reviews: The Sword in the Stone
