Les Miz premiere pics!




If you zoom in, you can see the back of Helena!


Yeah, that's Anne, Michael and Russel!

So yeah, photographic evidence I was there!

Thumbelina Review!

My apologies for the delay, I would have done a video review like the Nostalgia Critic, but I'm just going the quicker way to start my animated musicals December! So here it is:

Thumbelina
DISNEY RIP-OFF!!!
Rating: *
OK, I'm just gonna get straight to the point: IT'S A DISNEY RIP-OFF! SPECIFICALLY A LITTLE MERMAID RIP-OFF! Think about, both are based on a Hans Christian Andersen fairytale with red-head women as the titular characters, they fall into the syndrome of falling in love at first sight, the men only love their voices, as does everyone else, they want to be something they're not and most importantly: THEY'RE BOTH VOICED BY JODI BENSON! Did she really not see the similarities between them when she recorded the voice for Thumbelina!
OK, the plot is a contrived love/adventure story and is ridiculous and lacks common sense! Why didn't she get on that stupid bird when she was stuck of the lily pad so she could go home? Why didn't the prince die when he was frozen and why did Thumbelina agree to marry the mole in the first place even though she didn't love him? Yep I hate this film, but nothing could bug me more than the music, written by Barry Manilow, which is some of the shittiest music I have ever heard, especially Marry the Mole and Follow Your Heart, making this film be only animated film to win a Razzie!
So yeah, one other thing I find strange is why is it in Paris? May be ripping off Beauty and the Beast since that's set in France too, as well as fading into stained glass at the end. Also, how long did this film take place for? From my perspective, it would've been about 3 days, 4 maximum and also, the moral of the story leaves nothing for kids and I just hate it! Impossible and inconvinient aren't the same thing!
OK, I know this was short review, but my next one will be Quest for Camelot, where I will have things to talk or/write about!

Just came back from the Les Miserables Premiere which was AMAZING! I'll be posting photos and videos I did, the view wasn't as good as it could have been, but I did manage to see the actors quite well onstage and managed to meet a couple of people, including Killian Donnelly and Laurence Connor!

Les Miserables clips!

FINALLY! THIS FILM LOOKS AMAZING! My highlights would have to be Samantha's On my Own and Anne's incredible acting after Fantine's fired. I also like Hugh and Russell and Eddie and Amanda on-screen chemistry together, but I want more of Helena and Sacha!

Announcement!

Hi sorry I haven't been on for a while, but just to let you know, I'll be doing videos of trivia and information about film versions of musicals, starting with the 2000's because I'm more aware of them, as well as early 2010's because it's a wee bit too early to do one for this decade! They'll be quite similar to Animat's animation lookback videos on Youtube (who is hilarious and I suggest you watch them if you love animated film!) and I'll be reviewing Disney animated musicals everyday in order (I have a rule that if a film has more than five songs it's a musical film!) in December until New Years Day and yes, it's a rip off of the Nostalgia Critic's Disneycember which he ripped off from someone else so it's a rip off of a rip off!

Just heard there may be an O2 production of Moulin Rouge! Please let it happen! here's the Nostalgia Critic's review of this! He may hate it, but it's a guilty pleasure and I agree with a few things on it!
