black cauldron

Advantages: good
Disadvantages: none

...best. it has children as the main characters however if i was a child i would not want to watch this film as it does appear to be scary at times and even made me jump. the characters are made well but look a little etchy as it was an earlier made disney film. it is good value for money but children should be with adults when watching. the story is good. its about him getting his pig back after it gets stolen. i would recommend it to people to watch ...

Review of The Black Cauldron (Animated) (DVD)

Behind the scenes!

Advantages: Its a Walt Disney film!
Disadvantages: none!

...film out of all The Lion King films in my opinion! It shows the explanations behind the first film! Take the part out the 1st Lion King film...the part at the beginning when all the animals bow to the new prince...they are not bowing 'to Simba'...they are passing out and covering their noses because Timon and Pumba are walking through the crowd and Pumba being his normal self...broke wind! It also shows how Timon and Pumba became friends and how ...
...that 'The wise old baboon Rafiki' said to him because his family of Merekats don't want him in the colony! The film introduces two new fantastic characters, Timon's mum and Uncle Max! It has most of the characters in the film that's in the first...also there is some surprise appearances at the end of the film! The film had my crying with laughter all the way through its hilariously funny and the kids will love it to! The effects in the film are ...

Jumbo, no, he is DUMBO!

Advantages: Great for children, wonderful animation
Disadvantages: None

Dumbo is a film which we bought for our eldest for Christmas but last night we decided me and the hubby would watch it in peace as I have never seen it before and he thinks this is a tragedy! The film starts with all the circus animals getting a delivery from the stalks, all except Mrs Jumbo. The circus then packs up and moves on to the next town but as they are on the train a late stalk delivers a package to Mrs Jumbo. All of the other female elephants ...
...say he is more like Dumbo not Jumbo. As the train arrives in the next town the animals and men set to work putting the circus tent up and getting everything ready for the new visitors. The elephants are all in their places and the crowds start to arrive. One of the boys who comes to see the elephants starts to make fun of Dumbo and Mrs Jumbo starts to protect her son by throwing the laughing boys away and in the process the circus tent gets damaged ...

I Wish I Had A Dragon

Advantages: well written and preformed tale , quality song score
Disadvantages: widescreen aspect lost to square TV rendering aspect

In 1977, I was six years old a local cinema always ran children's matinees once a month where parents dropped off us kids, who were watched over by ushers, and left us to enjoy the magic show and the movie. This is one of the first films I got to see during one of these events, and while it was a box office failure at the time, I was smitten with the film. I must not have been the only one, as when it appeared not too long after on the TV as part ...
...up, it was a hot topic on the playground. Now, most of the kids I knew had not seen it at the cinema as I had; there was a recession on and cinema tickets and such were simply non essentials. These kids' parents were struggling to make ends meet, so just those of us who had parents with some disposable income could afford the odd treat like this. No matter, see it most everyone I knew did, whether at the cinema or on the TV, and we all loved it. ...
