Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation have released an online art book for KPop Demon Hunters. I do wish that Netflix would make physical copies that are more than just FYC campaigns, but I'm never gonna dislike seeing concept art from great animated films.

Nick and Judy are back as they uncover a new conspiracy involving reptiles in the animal metropolis. After a nine-year wait, it's a sequel that might be the best from Disney Animation and their best film in years. Anyway, here's my review of Zootopia 2.

Alice in Wonderland is getting a 4K remaster. The classic film from Walt Disney Animation Studios will reveal a new restoration at the 2026 TCM Classic Film Festival. I hope we get to see it soon on Blu-ray because the remasters of Cinderella and Snow White were so good.

Zootopia 2 is a fantastic sequel from Disney Animation. Like any great sequel, it expands what made the first film special with its riveting story and world, gorgeous animation, and lovable characters. As a fan of the first film, I loved it. I’ll give you my review very soon.

Sony Pictures Animation dropped a new trailer for Goat this morning. While I may not be 100% fully sold on the film compared to previous Sony films like Mitchells or Spider-Verse, I still think this does look pretty fun and the animation is stellar. Hope it's pretty good.

Man, I wonder what's been going on in the news?
(sees that Lil Dicky is trying to pitch an animated film to DreamWorks)

Fifteen years ago today, Tangled was released. One of Disney Animation's most beloved films of the 2010s, this take on Rapunzel is a fun time thanks to its great take on the fairy tale, gorgeous animation, lovable characters, and catchy songs from Alan Menken.

Sony Pictures Animation has revealed a new poster for Goat. Have a look!

Thirty years ago today, Toy Story was released. One of the most important films released, this film launched Pixar as one of the biggest players in animation thanks to its heartwarming story, groundbreaking animation, and lovable characters that'll last for infinity and beyond.

The Academy has officially unveiled the animated films that are eligible for the Oscar for Best Animated Feature this year. A lot of interesting picks this year. Curious which ones will be nominated.

With Zootopia 2 coming out very soon, I figured I'd share the animatic of the DMV scene from the first film. I still can't get over how funny Judy's expressions are drawn in these boards. Just hilarious.

Pixar just dropped a new trailer for Hoppers this morning. I'm gonna be honest, this might be my most anticipated animated film of next year. You can really feel Daniel Chong's energy in this and it really looks like Pixar's craziest film, even more than Turning Red. I'm hyped.

I just saw Angel’s Egg on the big screen and it is such an experience. It is a masterwork from director Mamoru Oshii and an abstract masterpiece. I’d talk about it me, but it’s a film that you’d better experience and interpret yourself. Check it out if you can.

A new look at Coyote Vs. Acme was revealed in Empire today showcasing upcoming films releasing in 2026. It's still such a miracle the film is coming out and I am genuinely hyped to see what it's like next year!

There's a great quote that Gene Siskel said about movie critics to David Letterman that I really think about often when reviewing all kinds of films. Even if I'm watching bad movies, I love and care about this art form and I still want to feel the passion in what I review.

A new animated film on Netflix dropped this weekend about two children searching their dreams to find the Sandman. It's a film that I sadly didn't think lived up to its premise and did very little for me. Anyway, here's my review of In Your Dreams.

I'm a firm believer in films getting a second life. It's why I don't hold the box office or use the initially critical analysis as verbatim to dictate how a film should be remembered. What matters is how the person feels about it and if they can cherish it. That makes it special.

Illumination has released a new poster for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. It is interesting to see the film tackle more games than just Galaxy as it is the world from Odyssey on the poster, but it does make me excited to see more of this in the final film.

Eighty-five years ago today, Fantasia was released. One of the biggest landmarks in animated filmmaking, this film that pairs Disney's animation with classical music is a revolution thanks to its brilliant music and top-tier animation that helped set the stage for music videos.

Illumination has dropped the first trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and revealed that Rosalina and Bowser Jr. will be played by Brie Larson and Benny Safdie, respectively. Overall, I'm on board with how the worlds look captured and the new stakes. Can't wait to see it!

Pixar just dropped the first teaser for Toy Story 5 today. Overall, there's not much to go on but I'll just say that it's crazy how the animation has come along since the first one and that I am excited to see where this goes. Can't wait to see it in June!

Paramount has announced that Spin Master exec Jennifer Dodge has been chosen to succeed Ramsay Naito as president of Paramount Animation. I'm not sure what this will entail, but I can at least say there could've been worse chosen to succeed Naito.

Illumination and Nintendo have announced that the first trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will premiere on Wednesday via a Nintendo Direct. The Galaxy games are a really important piece of me, so I am very curious and excited to see what they’ll do in this sequel!
