Heya friends! Lots going on around the Celmates house as we prep for the summer. No new episode today, but we'll have some hot steaming fresh content for you soon! In the meantime, here's a flashback to one of my favorites. A story of fairies and ponies and Megans.

It’s reigning cats and dogs as we discuss Disney petnappings of all breeds: feline and canine; period and “present day”; delightfully watchable and not-so-delightfully insufferable. Meow! Woof! [woofing ensues for 20 more minutes across the entire country of England]

We square up with two films that explore the eternal struggle between humanity and the wild. Kinda. Not really. Mainly we square up with two films that managed to put us to sleep multiple times due to flat characters, poor voice casting, and absolutely zero stakes. Oh, and Randy Quaid outperforms Dame Judi Dench. So that's a thing.

It’s a musical extravaganza as we croon and dance our way through two films that champion (sort of) artistic expression through song. Do they succeed? Do they pander? Do they explicitly demonize the use of mental health medication? Find out!

We set out on a journey to determine how much of a sprawling fantasy novel universe you can cram into an 80-minute runtime with The Hobbit and The Black Cauldron... and why you maybe shouldn't? Thanks to listener Cameron for the pairing suggestion!

Happy March! We're taking an episode off because, you know, all the things in the world. We'll be back in two weeks, but for now, here's a flashback to our March Madness brackets from 2019!
Dick and Kate discuss the kind of March Madness that they actually know things about! We've created a bracket of 64 Disney and Pixar movies to rank, and we're discussing our personal Sweet 16s. Then we go on to try and make a definitive brac...
Surprise: Baby! A century-old Western tale finds its way to Japan and prehistoric times (but probably Wyoming?) as trios of misfits learn to take care of small humans, themselves, and their “herds”.

What’s that in the sky? And in the sea? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a bugplane? No, it’s two lost civilizations being descended upon by nefarious militaries while a scrappy crew of characters and a very special Strong Female Lead works to defend them! Brother of the Podcast Andy Phillips joins us for this action-packed episode.

Foodfight!, The Emoji Movie, and Ralph Breaks the Internet: I’m Gonna Brand It!
How do you do, Fellow Kids! Late Stage Capitalism proudly presents three films that try very, very hard to be very, very relevant. Today’s episode brought to you by Roku, Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Behringer audio equipment, an Apple cookie timer (sorry, Chips Ahoy timer), and utter exhaustion from the amount of brand references we had to suffer along the way....
Things are a little crazy in the Celmates household right now, so in lieu of a new episode, we're republishing one of our favorites. From June of 2019 - it's Cars and Bolt! Two movies about things that go fast, and don't really hold up under mild scrutiny!
Also you’re going to want to Google “industry musicals” before you start listening.
