It's that time again... We're getting another reaction-review! For those of you just joining us, reaction-reviews are where I take a book, a movie or a comic, and go through it completely unprepared, writing down my thoughts about it as I experience it.

And this particular review has been a long time in the coming.

This week I've watched two recently-made animated movies.

The first one was the Norwegian-produced Knutsen & Ludvigsen Og Den Fæle Rasputin,  an animated movie based on the vastly popular comedy/singing Trondheim duo "Knutsen & Ludvigsen." the English dub is titled Two Buddies And A Badger, and the main characters were renamed "Tootson" and " ( Read more... )

But, well, I'd received a movie theater gift certificate for Christmas, and The Force Awakens was playing at a convenient time, and long story short, I decided to give it a shot ( Read more... )

And just as promised, here is the annual Christmas song! I've recorded it in my subpar a capella style again; this time it's from Jim Henson's masterpiece Fraggle Rock, from the sole Christmas episode the show made.

Here -- these are the fifteen Dragon Princes and Princesses. With the exeption of Zelen (more on that below), they are all here presented in their "birth" forms; since all dragons are shapeshifters they have a variety of looks and appearances ( Read more... )
