Schedule Changes to Tuesdays
Hello readers,
Sorry to change the schedule again, but I’m going back to posting on Tuesdays rather than Mondays; it works out better for me. Thank you for your patience!
Gus (1976)
(If this is your first time on this blog, I ask you to read my About page first! Thanks!)
While many American football fans were watching Super Bowl LV on February 7, 2021, some people, including myself, were watching the 1976 Disney film, Gus instead (although my watching it that weekend was purely coincidental). After all, it does center around American football…basically. How good is this Vincent McEveety-directed film? Read on to find out!
And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD!
Guess the Movie I’m Reviewing on February 15, 2021!
Lady and the Tramp (2019)
(If this is your first time on this blog, I ask you to read my About page first! Thanks!)
When Disney+ launched in 2019, everyone was excited to finally have the entire Disney library at their fingertips. But like any good streaming service, Disney+ wouldn’t feature only existing content; it would be debuting original content. One of the first two original films debuting on Disney+ was the live-action remake of the animated 1955 Disney Canon film, Lady and the Tramp. Was this remake a good film to christen Disney+ with?

Actress and Comedienne, Cloris Leachman, Dies at 94
In sad news, veteran actress and comedienne, Cloris Leachman, has passed away at the age of 94. Ms. Leachman (1926-2021) was probably most famous for her television role as Phyllis Lindstrom in The Mary Tyler Moore Show and its spinoff, Phyllis.
She appeared in multiple films throughout her career including The Last Picture Show, Young Frankenstein, High Anxiety, The Muppet Movie, History of the World, Part I, A Troll in Central Park, The Iron Giant, and The Croods. She also appeared in a few live-action Disney films including Charley and the Angel, The North Avenue Irregulars, Herbie Goes Bananas, and Sky High.
My condolences go out to her family and friends. She shall be missed!

Well, that was a longer break than what I was expecting, but the time has come to return to the live-action Disney films! Here’s the clue for next week’s film:
Upcoming Live-Action Disney Films in 2021
Well, 2020 is coming to an end, a fact that most people in the world are happy about. We’re all hoping and praying that 2021 will be a better year. Before I take my usual winter break and resume blogging in January, let’s take a look at the upcoming live-action Disney films coming out next year. Keep in mind that these are only the films with set release dates at the moment and do not include any documentaries, Marvel films, or Star Wars films.

The Bears and I (1974)
(If this is your first time on this blog, I ask you to read my About page first! Thanks!)
What do you get when you get Vincent McEveety’s brother to direct a film, Joss Whedon’s grandfather to write a film, and John Wayne’s son to star in a film? You get The Bears and I. Directed by Bernard McEveety, written by John Whedon, and starring Patrick Wayne, The Bears and I is one of those Disney films of the 1970s that isn’t a household name. Should it be though?
