Disney Compendium

WHOOPS! J.J. has been too busy to be able to put together the actual next Episode.  That's OK! Let's just wing it.  What can we talk about? Anything! The Past, The Present, and the Future of Compendium but mostly just two friends talkin' about Disney.  And fixing the top ranking lists.  It's fun! Enjoy!

Take one part Shakespeare and one part a classic Japanese anime/manga, smash them together, and you get your first "Completely Original Idea" from Disney! One of the most cherished and beloved movies from the company of all time.  How can we ruin this one! Let's see!

The hosts spend most of the time actually talking about two movies but really the focus is the 1992 classic Aladdin and there really isn't much to say that's funny here.  I'd use one of my 3 wishes to probably watch Aladdin. And lots of money.  Definitely lots of money. 

Now you can be OUR guest as we spend the next 2+ hours talking about a 85 minute film and don't care.  Sadly, no clocks join us in song.  Though you could say the hosts are a couple of dumbbells.

Released 4 years after the American People decided they were done with being interested in Australia, and the second movie in the Disney Renaissance, but sandwiched in between Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast, this movie never stood a chance.  But is it good? Is it memorable?  Do the hosts even remember watching it?  Listen and find out!

Join us under the sea where contracts mean nothing, the prince is dumb as a sack of hammers, and all of your expensive jewels disappear to.

Billy Joel in a Disney movie.  What could possibly go wrong? Somebody yelling OLIVER TWIST WITH DOGS is the only thing that got this movie greenlit and it shows.  Enjoy this journey with us.

One of the most significant films in the library of Disney.  Not for cultural impact, awards, or long term visibility, no.  It saved the animation studio from being shuttered and that's kinda big.  The hosts are here to enjoy this Vincent Price movie featuring other characters.  

The Eisner Era is upon us.  The hosts talk about the movie, but also just kinda talk about whatever they want that's not associated with the movie.  Is it great? Is it a dud? It's the most expensive cartoon Disney has made at the the time and they really went all in on everything except the plot.  The hosts lose the plot too, but that's to be expected.  

The hosts hope that you don't love this movie.  Because if you do, you're going to be cross with them.  A movie that is mostly just just a bad episode of "Fear Thy Neighbor" and you get the behind the scenes mess that is Fox and the Hound.  Based on an absolutely horrifying book that kills just everything that moves which is the opposite of this movie.
