88. Up Yourself

STRANGE WORLD (2022) - This week we are joined by Abigail's best friend Amber to discuss Disney's first openly queer character! (again...) Oh and also the latest adventure movie in our Cannon. Is this movie an homage to great adventure films of the past, or is it derivitive? Does knowing the twist change your opinion of the film? Did Disney sabatoge this film's release on purpose? We ask and try to answer all of these questions and more as we journey through this Strange World

ENCANTO (2021) - PART 2 - This week we bring along a special guest... Chris & Eli's brother-in-law Ben! We talk about the music behind this cultural phenomenon of a film and the impressive voice cast.

ENCANTO (2021) - Part 1 - This week we discuss one of the biggest movies in recent Disney history, with a deep dive on the impressive legacy and animation. We also talk extensively about family dynamics and how they effect us as we grow.

RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON (2021) - This week we talk about the first Disney movie made mostly from home! That's right we've entered a post-pandemic world and like most things in this new era, this movie has a wild story - including the replacement of a lead actor months before the film's release!

In this super short bonus episde, Eli and Chris interview their niece Stella on her FROZEN II takes... spoiler alert: the real villain is Samantha.

FROZEN 2 (2019) - PART 2 - This is the episode we've been waiting for as we discuss the music and voice cast of Frozen 2! Which is the best Elsa song? Is Lost In The Woods the best male sung disney song of all time? Why do we keep saying "Mary Poppins" throughout a Frozen themed episode? So many questions and some will be answered!

FROZEN 2 (2019) - Part 1 - We're back in a BIG way because we're talking the highest grossing animated film of all time today.

RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET (2018) - Part 2 - This week we get into the new voices that join Ralph and Vanellope as they venture through the internet. Plus we really get into the Princesses and their new looks.

RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET (2018) - Part 1 - We're BACK with the Modern Era! This week we kick things off in a very modern way by talking all things ~the internet~. Our first sequel since the Rennaisance brings us back to Ralph and Vanellope as they go through a ton of IP from our world. We discuss how this film came to be made and the changes in animation from the first film. And of course we talk about a big question: Did they title this movie correctly??

THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS - 1993 - What's This?! In this episode (somewhere between a full length episode and a bonus) we are stepping outside of the Disney Animated Canon to talk about a beloved cult favorite holiday film. Since we missed Halloween this year we thought it only appropriate to celebrate two holidays at once with Tim Burton (actually Henry Selick's) Masterpiece.
