A podcast journey through the Disney animated classics. Hosted by Daniel Lammin (@DanielLammin). New episodes every fortnight through @maketheswitchAU.
With our season on the Bronze Age complete, we're taking a break for a few months to get ready for our season on the Disney Renaissance. In the meantime, you can find previous episodes at https://t.co/dVqBlZNHif and new bonus episodes on our Patreon at https://t.co/RTIdQtzdG2
Though really, the whole Out There sequence in HUNCHBACK is an overwhelming experience, a staggering statement of artistic and thematic intention that echoes across the rest of the film. I’ve never not been totally and utterly shattered by it.
You know, I’ve watched a lot of Disney animation in my time, but I genuinely think this shot from THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME might be the single most beautiful shot in any Disney animated film. It’s beyond description.
Among the titles announced today to be removed from Disney+ is this gorgeous documentary on the great Howard Ashman. It’s unclear how, when and if it will ever be made available again, so if you haven’t seen it yet, make sure not to miss it!
Per Variety, Disney will remove ‘HOWARD,’ along with other 26 titles, from Disney+ and Hulu due to cost-cutting reasons.
The film documents the life of Howard Ashman, the legendary lyricist who worked on ‘The Little Mermaid,’ ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and ‘Aladdin.’
Finally finished writing the episode on THE LION KING for @inkpaintpod, after months of work on it in between my masters and my a new job. It’s the longest single episode I’ve written so far.
I know this season is taking SO long to finish, but I think it’ll be worth the wait.
Reviews are appearing for the 4K UHD release of CINDERELLA, and thank the animation gods, it features a gorgeous new 4K transfer that restores some of the detail lost in previous releases! Check out this review from @thedigitalbits https://t.co/l15UwHTnjA
Throughout our research for this podcast, Burny Mattinson’s name comes up over and over again. His remarkable skill with storytelling can be seen in many of Disney’s greatest animated films. A true legend.
We are sad to report the passing of animator, director, producer, story artist, and Disney Legend Burny Mattinson, the longest-serving cast member in the history of The Walt Disney Company: https://t.co/leBFryPnQj
Finally back behind the mic, recording the first interview for our upcoming season on the Disney Renaissance! We’re still a little while away from a release date, but we can’t wait to share this incredible period of Disney feature animation with you.
Was super excited to get a shoutout on my favourite podcast @inkpaintpod's special Patreon ep on Muppet Christmas Carol (of all eps, naturally, hehe)! FANTASTIC discussion btw. And not *only* because I'm mentioned.😌Thanks for making my day, @DanielLammin!
Finished writing the episode on ALADDIN for @inkpaintpod, which is bittersweet, both because of how much I loved learning about this film and because it means I’m finally going to have to research that f*cking lion movie everyone loves.
It’s a holiday surprise! To celebrate the release of STRANGE WORLD on Disney+, we’ve added our Patreon episode on this terrific film to our main feed, along with an update on how work on the next season is going. Check it out now!
STRANGE WORLD, the 61st animated feature from @DisneyAnimation, is in cinemas this week, and it's a real blast! Check out Daniel's ★★★★ review for @maketheswitchAU of this bold and breezy delight, Disney's best in years. #StrangeWorld@DisneyAUNZ https://t.co/8WeuOiYQ8x
@Jamellpelle We cover it in our episodes on The Fox and the Hound and The Black Cauldron, but mostly from the feature animation perspective (though we do cover the Eisner/Wells takeover). From memory, our main book sources were The Disney Studio Story and DisneyWar.
