Bad Princess Movies

Bri's back from vacation and feeling refreshed, so what better time than now to dive back into the Disney Descendants universe by taking a look at the trilogy's grand finale! Disney Descendants 3 is, in my opinion anyways, the obvious high point of the series... though it still has a few missteps here and there. So join us as we discuss among other things good girls gone bad, Disney's odd precedent for pairing up Maleficent with Hades, and Kristi being the only person on earth who remembers One Saturday Morning's "Stuart Day". 

We're wrapping up the April Prince movie month with a glorious return to our old friend, Golden Films. Camelot is Golden Films' rendition of the King Arthur mythology, and is probably their best written film. Seriously, there's some potential in this movie! It's just a shame that the budget (And run time) wasn't there to turn it into a classic. So come and join us as we discuss among other things the connection between this film and The Last Unicorn, Lancelot killing 12 dudes and getting away with it, and jerk wizards thrusting unwanted destiny's onto sad men who just want to be loved. This episode also culminates in us getting extremely sidetracked looking up movies based on A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (A classic book we forget existed for a good 5 minutes or so).

It is once again that magical time of year where we celebrate Bri’s birthday by discussing a film of her choosing. This year Bri has chosen the 1982 classic: The Last Unicorn, a lovely little film that’s only getting better with age (And as we age too). Come and join us as we discuss the idea of being remembered, unicorns and the fair maidens that wait for them, and Steve’s strange fascination with what he calls “The Elton John Butterfly”.

I do believe in Faeries, I do, I do! This week we're taking a look at Faeries, a 1999 film from Britain that tries very hard to tell an enjoyable story inspired by Faerie folklore... but it unfortunately misses the mark quite a bit. There is some potential in this story, and it did manage to give me a hankering for more fun stories about the fae folk. So join us as we discuss among other things 5-minute engagements, conflicting but charming visuals, and some recent developments in the Swan Princess universe. 

Well folks we've done it, we're finally taking a look at what is currently the final installment in the Swan Princess series: Swan Princess 10! That means we're officially kicking off our season 4 with a return to the usual craziness that the Swan Princess series can provide. So join us as we discuss among other things unsatisfying villains, the Rogers/Uberta ship, and the most important topic of all... we introduce you to our friend Steve and his penchant for cursing you with way too much food. 

Before we jump into our fourth season we need to make sure the previous one is wrapped up! As is tradition, join us for a very chill bonus episode where we go through the movies we profiled last season, mixed in with a good number of our usual tangents (Such as, "How to not blow up your house when trying to kill a spider" and "Is Shrek a Princess movie?). 

This week we're taking a look at the very snowy Sailor Moon S! Specifically the original dub of Sailor Moon S that aired on YTV way back in our childhoods. If that wasn't a big enough hint for you, this entire episode is basically us waxing on about our nostalgia for Sailor Moon. So join us as we discuss among other things the pitfalls of television watching during the 90s, the weird plot points of Sailor Moon that we never really questioned as kids, and giving candy to cats. 

To close off this year's Nutcracker November we're taking a look at 1979's Nutcracker Fantasy, one of the few Nutcracker movies I'm aware of that doesn't have anything to do with Christmas! Nutcracker Fantasy is brought to us by Sanrio, taking inspiration from the beloved Rankin/Bass style of stop motion animation. Unfortunately there's also a few particularly large speedbumps to this film that prevent it from being a yearly classic. So join us as we discuss among other things the charm of stop motion animation, dated stereotypes, and the strange baby dolls who leer at you from above.
