If I have to be honest, given what I have seen and heard, the ending of the remake is a huge disappointment. I really hate the idea of Jumba was a full-time villain zero hidden heart of gold traits his counterpart from the original film carried that made him charming in his zany “evil” genius way. I especially hate that the remake had Nani lose full custody of Lilo. Sure, Lilo under the care of David and his grandmother but it just takes out the charm and the true meaning of Ohana: Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. I’m not going to sugarcoat it: I just wish that Disney would stop doing live action remakes of endless classics, especially if they’re going to be poorly scripted and mess around with the script and key elements that make the originals the best. Personally, the original animated film is the best and will always be.

Unicorn Academy is so good! I do hope for a season 3. I would like to see an episode in the future if that possible season where Jamie and Aseda in the second season, “Wrong Crowd”, face some comeuppance when they take their pranks too far and try to get Rory into trouble only to get caught themselves. Don’t you just hate it when such kids or teens like them take advantage of peer pressure and try to use those they had manipulated as a scapegoat?

The Reignited Trilogy is the greatest remake of the classic Spyro games and I was super excited to get it. Although I was rather annoyed that the content for Ripto’s Rage and Year of theDragon had to be downloaded online and it took a lot of work to do so but at least it was worth it. I just adored the improved graphics and the beautiful extra details added in. And the redesigns for the older dragons are very unique, which gives them their most distinctive personalities and easier to tell them apart. My only gripe of some changes were the baby dragons; they could have been more cuter to be honest. other than that, I really love the redesign of Ripto, it makes him much more menacing and less goofy. I most especially love Zoé and Elora’s redesign and the famous “I’m a faun, you dork” scene was more playful and teasing which I find it more heartwarming and good natured when Elora corrected Spyro. I also personally enjoyed the special features where you could switch between the remake of the music of the games and to the original in the PS1 games. In the remake, the characters are much more expressive, the movements of Spyro whenever you explore the incredible worlds of the Dragon Realms, Avalar and the Forgotten Realms are so fluid. And many kudos to Tom Kenny for reprising our favourite purple dragon in all three contents. Next to The Legend of Spyro Trilogy, Spyro: Reignited Trilogy is my most favourite and it’s so sweet and awesome to relieve my childhood of the original games I had played on the PS1 at my Nana’s house for the summer. I have high hopes that we’ll meet Spyro, all of his friends and all of the other colourful characters again in a future game very soon.

I sadly had missed the chance to see it at the cinema last year but since I watched streamed on Disney+, I LOVED it! It’s such a wonderful movie with such amazing songs, beautiful animation and colourful characters. I also loved the Easter Eggs and references from all of the older classic films such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and The Little Mermaid. I really like Asha and her determination to help people make their wishes come true. Star is my favourite character given how cute it is. I don’t care what some critics or some fans claim, Wish is a beautiful movie and I really love how the end credits have put in starry illustrations of all of the characters from the older movies. That was such a lovely touch.

It’s too bad there hadn’t been any news about a second season. I just hate it when a series is discontinued on a cliffhanger. I really want to know what happens next and if the new headmaster would set things right and punish the bullies for making the twins’ time difficult. And nothing would please me more than for Opal getting expelled for taking it too far when she attempted to drown Jessa. Hey, what comes around goes around as the saying goes.

The show is enjoyable and epic, but my only issue is Lila and her lack of karma, especially how much worse she’s getting in the current season. Granted she is made to be a Hate Sink and is beyond redemption, but nothing would please me more to see that smug smirk permanently wiped off her face as she receives her biggest comeuppance. Frankly, the show should teach children from preteen and teenage years the important lessons of being a buddy and not a bully. And I certainly hope what fate’s in store for the likes of Lila and Chloe, they are severe consequences to bullying and deception for the sake of cruelty and spite.

Personally, I really enjoyed the movie. While I was disappointed I had missed the chance to see it on the big screen, but I was very lucky to get the DVD under preorder. And I really loved it. The people who had made this film possible put in a lot of work into bringing it to life, so I’m not complaining. It’s too bad it wasn’t well received with some fans and critics alike, I would have loved to see a sequel. There are some things we shouldn’t take for granted and such films based off of well-beloved games such as the Ratchet & Clank franchise are hard to come by. And the choices of voice actors are incredible, and I commend all of them doing an excellent bringing all of the amazing characters to life. I always wanna thank James Arnold Taylor and David Kaye for coming so far to bring our favourite Lombax and his robotic pal to the small and big screen and for having us join them on their many adventures over the years. Mr. Taylor, Mr. Kaye, if you’re both reading this, thank you for giving both Ratchet and Clank life and their voices. You guys are awesome. 😊👍

As I said, The Cuphead Show is brilliant and I high hopes for Netflix would consider green lighting the cartoon for a fourth season since about every die hard Cuphead fan is not ready to say goodbye to such an amazing cartoon just yet.
