Jungle Cruise (2021)

(If this is your first time on this blog, I ask you to read my About page first! Thanks!)

Jungle Cruise is the latest Disney film based on a theme park attraction. Beloved by many for its laid-back nature and enjoyable sufferable puns, Jungle Cruise is an interesting choice for a film as it’s pretty plotless giving the screenwriters pretty much carte blanche with originating a story. Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, the film was delayed multiple times until finally being released in 2021. Is this a riverboat adventure or more of a beached ferryboat experience?

And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD!

The Black Hole (1979)

(If this is your first time on this blog, I ask you to read my About page first! Thanks!)

Have you ever wanted to see 20000 Leagues Under the Sea set in outer space? Well, today’s your lucky day! Inspired by the disaster films of the era (and no doubt the influence of Star Wars), The Black Hole gives us Disney’s first sci-fi film as well as its first PG-rated film. Is it notable besides these reasons? Read on to find out!

A Note on Disney+ Releases

In May 2020, I released a poll asking if you all were interested in me reviewing live-action Disney films that are released to Disney+ rather than theatrically released to which most of you replied yes. However I’ve noticed that some of the Disney+ live-action releases are films produced by Disney Channel which they had no intention of releasing theatrical (Sneakerella) or films that are actually from Fox or other studios (Home Sweet Home Alone).

Sometimes it’s hard to tell which films are which until afterwards which is why I’ve reviewed films like Black Beauty and Secret Society of Second-Born Royals already on this blog. However going forward, I will no longer be reviewing those types of films on this blog as I still want to keep the blog focused to theatrical/”intended to be theatrical” Disney releases.

Now I gotta find out if Cheaper by the Dozen is an actual Disney production or not, lol!
