"Wolfwalkers" is from the same creators as "Song of the Sea", "The Secret of Kells", and "The Breadwinner". This film has the same, or similar vibes of lore and mystique. The animation is stylized and interesting to watch.

Having a hard time in life? Need a little pick-me-up? We have just the right movie for you. The original Muppets movie is a classic from a series that's been around practically since the early stages of Television. Sesame Street, and the Muppets brings you back in time to a time when the world seemed much simpler. The creations that were invented by the genius that is Jim Henson allow you to enter into a moment of disable if for a couple of hours, where you almost -believe- puppets could be real.  Love, Team SAGA COVID-DAY'S: This is one of the episodes that was edited and released during COVID and because of that reason it was a little late... we're sorry to our listeners!

This amazing and beautiful animation is one of the best we've seen this year! I feel like I keep saying that... well, the last couple have been major wins! The Illusionist is no exception. This movie is artistic, clever, and witty. It has a timeless feeling of an era where the world was shrinking and worlds were connecting. It tells a story of relationships and love.
