Now I’m almost curious what it’s like with kangaroos in this world especially with the mothers.
Jared Bush on why there are no alligators in ‘ZOOTOPIA 2’:

“We got close! We could only build a certain number of animals, and we had to prioritize. Same reason you don’t see kangaroos. But they definitely exist!”

So far? I'd probably say Greatest Show on Earth.

But at least it gave Steven Spielberg some inspiration to pursue a filmmaking career so there's that.
Late night question for the gang: what’s your LEAST favorite Best Picture winner that’s not Crash?

I want to be clear that I’m not complimenting the Animal Farm trailer. Just mentioning films that have a better juxtaposition than how AF seems to have
With the trailer for the newer Animal Farm film, Im reminding myself of at least four movies that were based on adult novels and were made more family friendly yet still managed to be very well made even keeping some of the originals’ darker aspects.

Family films directed by filmmaker known for more adult works definitely have a unique feeling of their own.

I'm sorry to say I'm really mostly familiar with Peter Greene's performance in The Mask.

I feel whenever I watch certain movies, it’s hard for me to not think of Rifftrax at some places. Still better than CinemaSins.

This interaction is just brilliantly sweet and sublimely played by a wonderfully present Frank Oz…

Watching Home Alone 2 and realizing Catherine O' Hara has played two characters in Christmas themed films with terrible premonitions that turn out to be correct.

The co-director of Elio complimenting K-POP Demon Hunters?

🎶Ohhhh Saberspark?🎶😈
‘ELIO’ co-director Domee Shi on original animated films:

“It’s hard. Elio got massacred at the box office even though audiences who saw it loved it. The question is how to push original theatrical films through all the noise. I’m hopeful, though. Maggie’s [KPop Demon Hunters] gives me hope.”
