So there’s a new CGI animated Addams Family movie, based on the old strip, tv show, and live action movies. I watched the old show in reruns, enjoyed the first live action film (hated the second)… so I’m not a … Continue reading
Checked out the new Dreamworks animated film Abominable. This is the third in a weird recent trend of human-like cryptid movies that also includes Missing Link (bigfoot) and Smallfoot (yeti). Not sure why exactly three Sasquatch/yeti animated films were made … Continue reading

How to Train Your Dragon (3): The Hidden World is the least of the series, but it’s still not a bad film. Just a little slow, just a little disappointing… and somehow the end of a trilogy? So the … Continue reading
