THE GOOFY SCENARIO - how Disney lost a huge segment of it's audience

What are the greatest remakes in American cinema?

What began in 1987 comes full circle in 2024 with the artistry of Ryan Kruger. Street Trash is a film that shines with clarity in its intent, and because of that, it delivers an unforgettable experience.

Today AKAPAD The Film Buff discusses the 2020's film, Monster Hunter.

The 2025 Wolf Man, directed by horror maestro Leigh Whannell, is a gripping and masterfully crafted thriller that delivers chilling suspense and standout performances.

AKAPAD The Film Buff reviews Call Me By Your Name

Gareth Evans and Netflix deliver a gritty, unrelenting masterpiece with Havoc, a dark, visceral love letter to the action-cop genre. This blood-soaked thrill ride, where corruption taints every soul and no one escapes unscathed by the credits, is a raw, pulse-pounding triumph. The Film Buff is all in for this chaotic, adrenaline-fueled delight!

The Film Buff is grateful to those who brought us Havoc.

For many families in the '90s and 2000s, A Goofy Movie was a staple of the home video library—so much so that an entire generation forgot it was ever released in theaters, remembering it only as a home-viewing classic.

On its 30th anniversary, AKAPAD: The Film looks back at a uniquely heartfelt era of Disney animation—one we may never see again.
