Synopsis – An adaptation of the Disney fairy tale about a monstrous-looking prince and a young woman who fall in love.

Disney has quite often had an aversion to making anything in their films overtly political, or presenting something in a way that could incite controversy. That doesn’t mean that controversy doesn’t arise anyway, but by and large throughout Disney’s 90s heyday they offered a very squeaky clean slate. However, while the studio’s films have always offered up heterosexual relationships, those actually making the films have been … Continue reading ‘Beauty and the Beast’: Josh Gad’s Le Fou Will Be Disney’s First-Ever Gay Character!!

After EW released a batch of first-look images and details on Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast, the Mouse House dropped the first non-teasery poster for the film. Emma Watson stars as Belle, while Dan Stevens plays the performance-capture Beast, and the two are shown dancing a dance that’s as old as time.

While skepticism was more than warranted when Disney began announcing a slew of live-action remakes of its animated classics, the studio’s track record thus far is cause for optimism. Kenneth Branagh’s Cinderella was a lush, delightful riff on the fairy tale; Jon Favreau’s The Jungle Book was jaw-droppingly realistic; and Pete’s Dragon is perhaps the most earnest, least cynical film of the year. So when it comes to 2017’s Beauty and the Beast—no doubt … Continue reading ‘Beauty and the Beast’: Belle Has a New Backstory in Disney’s Live-Action Remake!!

Synopsis – An aged, retired Sherlock Holmes looks back on his life, and grapples with an unsolved case involving a beautiful woman. My Take – Let me clear this up first, this film is not the kind of Sherlock Holmes adaption you would expect to see! It has no witty banter of Benedict Cumberbatch‘s portrayal on the BBC One series, or the slow mo action … Continue reading Mr. Holmes (2015) Review!!
