I was 21 when the original, animated Mulan movie was released; far too cool for those Disney cartoons. They’re for kids, right? It’d take until the release of Tarzan in […]
After last week’s bombshell final shot featuring that fan favourite character’s potential return, it’s perhaps a disappointment that we don’t see it pay off this week. In fact, not much […]
The first season of The Mandalorian was a genuine surprise; a live action Star Wars show that made great use of the universe’s settings and lore which didn’t lean on […]
It’s hard to believe that Ravensburger’s excellent Disney Villainous has only been around since 2018. A game in which players each take the role of a different Disney villain, it’s already seen numerous expansions which can be played without the base game or by combining any of the villains from any set to compete in a struggle to be the […]
Thanks to the Disney/Fox deal and the launch of Disney’s seemingly unstoppable juggernaut of a streaming service – DisneyPlus – it’s never been easier to see the 1992 X-Men cartoon in its entirety.

Not only that, but I felt that the focus on a Bona Fett-esque character would simply be looking to capitalise on […]
The risk of making huge budget movies can sometimes be a gamble worthy of beloved Corellian chancer Han Solo himself. However, there were – until recently – not many franchises more set for success than Star Wars, so a prequel movie covering the early years of Han Solo was seen as the closest thing there is in Hollywood to a […]
Until recently, it had been a very long time since I’d last seen Frank Oz’s movie version of stage musical Little Shop of Horrors. The musical, based on a Roger […]
Though there’s a lot of humour wrung from the premise, there’s an undeniably horrifying glimpse at an all-too likely future for our planet in WALL-E. The humour, though, comes from our look at the day to day adventures of the world’s last functioning cleaner robot, part of a workforce that was created generations ago to refresh our planet – which […]
