Quest For Camelot

Being home for break means seeing all of the old animated movies I watched when I was younger on the shelf where they've been sitting for years. One that caught my eye was Quest For Camelot, a movie I completely forgot existed but watched a lot. For those that don't know what this movie is, it's the story of Kayley, a girl who wants to be like her father, a Knight of the Round Table for King Arther (but not dead), but her mother wants her to be a good medieval girl and just get married. Enter Ruber, who wants to force Kayley's mother into marrying him and helping him over through King Arther. Ruber creates a mutant army with some weird poison and heads to Camelot. Kayley, meanwhile escapes Ruber's army and heads to the forest to try to make it to Camelot to warn King Arther about Ruber. In the forest, Kayley meets Garrett, a blind man, and his pet falcon Aiden, who acts as his eyes, and later a two headed dragon.

It's a weird movie and it definitely isn't the best but I loved it and its weird trying-to-be-Disney-so-bad self. the worst part is how good some of the cast is, Gary Oldman voices Ruber (the bad guy), Pierce Brosnan voices King Arther, Eric Idle voices one of two headed dragon's heads, and the singing voice of Kayley's mother is Celine Dion.

This movie is weird, and bad, and wonderful and if anyone remembers any other weird non-Disney movies form childhood please let me know.

This weekend, I watched the hit 2005 animated movie Bratz: Rock Angelz. This movie was one of the first Bratz films in CGI, and let me tell you- the plot is ALL OVER THE PLACE. The girls start a fashion magazine and use stolen passes to get into hot London punk clubs, but when they lose their passes they decide that the only way to get into the gig is to become a rock band? This movie can be considered capitalist propaganda- the Bratz shop in order to destress about their problems, and it's an implemental part of their lives. They don't have jobs either- Jade has an internship, but only for three hours until she is fired. Chloe meets a TRASH British prince and ignores her best friend Yasmin who finds celebrity judge Byron Powell's (I don't make this stuff up) dog, Ozzy. Jade and Sasha try to do a photo shoot for the magazine, but Sasha micromanages the whole thing and makes her friend feel bad! And this whole time, there's these two evil blond twins (Kaley Cuoco PLA...

The New Spider Man!

Yesterday I saw spiderman with some buddies and we all walked out absolutely giddy! This animation is the best animation to hit the theaters in 2018. Period. I remember watching it and as I was watching it thinking, "thank god I already finished all my reviews because I don't think I can put into words how good this movie is in just a page". The style of this animation is something you have never seen before from Hollywood. It is absolutely stunning. It follows traditions of comic book artists with bright colors, dark lines on the face, and a pop art texture overlayed on top of everything. My breath was taken away during the final fight scene: it was gorgeous , emotional, and the stakes were made clear in every shot. Not only was the animation fantastic, but the story was also so well told. Every character had a meaningful arch or something you didn't expect from them. Every relationship and turning point felt genuine and earned. And you didn't have some v...
