The Disney Animated Canonball

The widely praised 2021 Disney movie about generational trauma and Columbian culture has shaken the world and set a new standard for the kind of media it is, coming from a deeply considered authentic place of emotionality in a family from whom we so often hear nothing. And if you can hear this podcast over the sound of Talen's grinding teeth, you'll be able to find out what Fox has to say about it!

Early 2021 saw the release of Raya and the Last Dragon, a Disney movie that was completed in closets, which is ironic, given the way the two leads look at and talk about one another. Come, see Disney once again create an Asian movie (but not really) with a queer protagonist (but not really) and a meaningful message (but not really).

If two princesses and one good song can make a billion dollars, what can two princesses and no good songs do? Well, we check it out with 2019's Frozen 2, the last of a pre-pandemic culture's vision of blockbuster family cinema! Do they do a good job? Will the movie earn Fox and Talen's approval as 'good stuff' or will it have to take its mere billion dollars as a consolation prize?

Oh look, Ralph's back, everyone. Get a load of this, it's Ralph again. Can you believe we get to hang around Ralph again? In 2018, Disney decided to try and take on Internet Culture and it's as vulgar and cringe as when they tried to do videogame culture.

There were TWO Disney movies in 2016? And one was a Musker & Clements joint? Holy macaroni! Oh and it has a joke about tweeting. Fox and Talen talk about Moana, a movie with a beautiful visual scope that nonetheless wants to try and include in its wide spread arms a set of cultures whose territory encircles an ocean larger than the moon. How did they do? Better ask a pair of white people in a settler state!
