202. Beverly Hills Chihuahua (2008)

Two gringos from Indiana review Beverly Hills Chihuahua (2008) this week.

Eddie brings the fluent Spanish perspective, and it does not help the film's case.Then in Disney News: D'Amaro confirms Disney is keeping ESPN and the guys break down why. Plus, Disney's new "Infinity Vision" screen certification — which is very much not Imax — sparks a deeper conversation about premium movie formats and what's worth the splurge this summer.

Who will they choose?

J.B. and Eddie are out of the vault and over the moon for this one. This week the guys review Pixar's Wall-E (2008) — a film that somehow delivers sharp environmental and social commentary, a sweeping romance, and some of the best physical comedy in Pixar history, all with barely any dialogue. Is it the most underrated film in the Pixar canon? The guys make a strong case, and debate where Wall-E ranks among cinema's greatest robots.Then in Disney News: the new class of Disney Legends is announced ahead of D23 — and it's a fascinating mix of animators, voice actors, Imagineers, and a couple of familiar faces with movies coming out this summer.
