Disney is totally going to buy that VPN company just to find you.

Thats how they roll!

My daughter's current Disney+ power rankings. I'm splitting up Frozen since she tells me she likes the 2nd one best because Elsa isn't naughty and there is no bad guy.

1. Lion King
2. The Aristocats
3. Frozen 2
4. Frozen
5. 101 Dalmatians

Big Shot wrapped up its first season yesterday, I really do want to give it a thumbs up. As charming as the Mighty Ducks was. Big Shot just checks off a lot more boxes. Stamos really knocked it out of the park in the first year. The supporting actors were really solid. And the last game of the year and how they portrayed it without showing a lot of it was really well done.

As far as Pixar films go, Luca was absolutely awful. I wasn't even sure I was watching a Pixar movie. What the hell was that?

I haven't even watched Cruella yet because honestly, I'm really cheap.

That's probably why it was released directly to Disney+ without a theatrical release or "Premiere Access".

It's not even a 30 dollar extra buy in, it's just a regular old included with your monthly.

Huh. Thought Luca was excellent and so did my nephews. Definitely a stronger Pixar movie. Has great reviews too.

It was not released theatrically because of COVID.

Kids power ranking sounds like a weekly YouTube segment I would tune in for religiously.

They don't pick to appease any one crowd and typically are brutally honest with their critiques, which could make it that much better.

dammit I can't wait until that Peter Jackson Beatles documentary.
#### it's going to be great.

watched the teaser footage Jackson released and it's incredible.
Also saw a Ringo interview with Colbert where Ringo is pumped about this.

He comments that he's so excited for people to see the real sessions from this time and how while there was tension and the Beatles were drifting, there was a lot of fun and a lot of love. He can't wait for all of us to see this.

I can't wait either!

Really like the Simpsons shorts Disney's produced for +. Haven't enjoyed watching The Simpsons in a long time, but I find these charming and succinct enough that they hold my interest

i've noticed for a while now that The Simpsons just isn't a thing for younger generations. Either you were there or you weren't. This would be a good way for Disney to simultaneously reinvigorate and reintroduce the brand

The most recent Loki felt like a bit too much Disney/Marvel fanwank, but it just worked

My daughter loved Raya and won't stop talking about dragons. Definitely a contender for the power rankings. Luca on the other hand she did not like.

What do I need to watch before I check out the Loki series? I don't want to make the same mistake I made with the Sam and Bucky show.

How in-depth do you want to get?

If you just want a quick summary, you can watch the Marvel Legends episodes on Loki and the Tesseract on Disney+.

If you want to watch every movie that Loki was in, there's the three Thor films, the first Avengers, and the last two Avengers films (Infinity War and Endgame).
