My jaw is still a little dropped at how poignantly HBO Max delivered on The Last of Us live action series by showing us Bill and Frank's relationship.  And let's also mention how this relates to Joel's psyche.

Scooby-Doo has decades worth of legacy fans, and they're pretty upset with the HBO Max original Velma.  And, while I love Mindy Kaling's writing in general, I can see their point - this show goes too far in a direction that is out of touch with the Mystery Gang's established IP.  

Granted, I recorded this back when Disney and Pixar had just released Coco, but I think the thoughts in this are still good.  And, unfortunately, transitioning a vlog to a podcast in a desperate attempt to expand my audience often leads to older videos being awkwardly placed.  My bad, but I love you guys for listening anyways!

I actually obtained a copy of Disney's Song of the South, and, the movie definitely aged weird.  But, let's talk about the intention of this film when it was originally released.

If you are just WAITING for Invincible season 2 to hit Amazon (come on now, Vox Machina already has a season 2 airing!), then this is the episode of The Fangirl Watches for you!  I'm guessing and predicting what will happen with Omniman next.

I was asked to ponder whether or not Jim and Silver could be a long-lost father and son duo in Treasure Planet, and here is my analysis on that Disney theory!

Yes!  It is time to wrap up Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by doing a book versus movie!

The Song of the Sea is such a beautifully animated movie, but I think there are darker things going on than the film directly tells us.  Let's talk about it!

Let's talk about questions and issues found in the entire book of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets!

With the new Spider-Verse movie coming, I'd like to revisit what was happening in the first film.

What will Dobby's Reward be at the end of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets?  Well, Lucious Malfoy definitely makes this an interesting chapter!

Disney/Pixar's Turning Red is such a cute movie, but, with the issue of generational trauma coming up in another movie, let's talk about what that can look like.

Who could possibly be the heir of Slytherin?!  And what is the deal with Faux and the Basilisk?! 

I said what I said!  The Batman is a "meh" kind of film that doesn't really grasp what a superhero film is supposed to be.

The Chamber of Secrets has finally arrived, and it's time to see what Harry Potter is going to do about Tom Riddle!

Gene is definitely a special kid, but there may be a subtle, but deeper, message in his behaviors.  I think Gene has Autism, and it's awesome!

Aragog the spider is the theme of this chapter, and, ummm, NO THANK YOU!  I'm with Ron Weasley on this one - that's horrific!
