Why Saying “It’s a Disney Movie” Never Meant Anything
Disney is known for its family-friendly entertainment, from movies to TV and on-demand shows, and online videos. In fact, throughout the 20th century, it produced mostly movies that were rated G. However, just because most of Disney’s entertainment was geared toward all ages, that didn’t make “Disney” equate to meaning “clean,” or “child-friendly.” Even whenContinue reading “Why Saying “It’s a Disney Movie” Never Meant Anything”

It’s Tough Being in the Minority of How I View Certain Movies
One time, I came across an article with how to cope enjoying something most people hate or don’t like. I related to it so much that it was as if that author read my mind.

How I Feel About 2D-Animated Movies Dying Out

What I Pick Up in Movies
Who doesn’t love movies? I don’t know about you, but I always have. There were also times where I didn’t know what I was watching. This was mostly when I was little.
