Disney's Tomorrowland: Flawed Beauty (Disney Movie Review)

Image
2015's big budget would-be blockbuster Tomorrowland wasn't the movie that anyone was expecting, including Disney themselves. But does that mean that there's nothing to take away from the film? In this movie review, I talk about my affection for the Walt Disney Pictures movie Tomorrowland, its origin as a theme park land, and delve into some of the spin-off material. Things even get a little personal before it's all said and done.

Joe, My Little Pony, Rainbow Brite, Care Bears, Voltron, Transformers, Barbie, Smurfs, Thundercats, SIlverhawks, Dungeons & Dragons, and unicorns!

My Mill Creek DVD Collection: Part 2 (Blu-ray, physical media)

Image
In the second and concluding look at my Mill Creek DVD and Blu-ray collection, I show how the distributor has largely outgrown the 50-movie collection business model and has become legitimate pop culture preservationists.

Batman Ninja Non-Spoiler Review (DC Animated Universe Movie)

The latest DC Animated Universe movie transports Batman, the Bat-Family, and his Rogue's Gallery to feudal Japan!

Why does Robin look like he cuts his own hair? Check out this non-spoiler review from Cereal At Midnight and see if this Bat flies or ends up crashing through a second-story window.

My Mill Creek DVD Collection: Part 1

In the first of two videos looking at Mill Creek Entertainment, I show you my collection of Mill Creek DVDs and explain where the company came from. We examine their origins as the company that put out those 50 movie packs and classic 80s cartoons like Bravestarr and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. In the next video, we will conclude with a look at the kind of products Mill Creek has been releasing for the last few years and see how different they are from the public domain DVDs that they started with!
