Episode Five: Spirited Away

IMPORTANT UPDATE: A loyal listener of the show informed me (Josh) that a handful of old episodes--from when it was just me recording on my own, sans website or co-host--were missing from iTunes, so here's one of those, coming out of...let's say the Disney vault. Enjoy! 

This week, Josh takes a look at a whole new world of animation, from Japanese auteur Hayao Miyazaki from Studio Ghibli. Pixar honcho John Lasseter introduced Americans to Spirited Away in 2002; nearly ten years later, can Josh share Lasseter's enthusiasm? Does admiring something equal liking it? Is Miyazaki a modern successor to Walt Disney? Can river spirits be dragons? Find out on this week's Mousterpiece Cinema!

Episode Four: Winnie the Pooh (2011)

Everyone else may be seeing Harry Potter's final hurrah this weekend, but Josh made another trip to the Hundred Acre Wood to see Disney's newest animated feature, Winnie the Pooh. You'll have to listen to know his exact thoughts, but Josh's tour down nostalgia lane did not disappoint! Make sure to rate and review the show, and subscribe to it on iTunes!

Episode Three: Cinderella

IMPORTANT UPDATE: A loyal listener of the show informed me (Josh) that a handful of old episodes--from when it was just me recording on my own, sans website or co-host--were missing from iTunes, so here's one of those, coming out of...let's say the Disney vault. Enjoy!

This week, Josh takes his first look at one of the fabled Disney princess movies, 1950's Cinderella. Is he charmed by Cinderella's mice friends, Jaq and Gus?
