This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:50:44), we talk about John Musker and Ron Clements' 1992 Disney renaissance classic Aladdin, in addition to the first episode of Freaks and Geeks. In part two (1:50:45-3:05:48) we talk in shorter form about 9ish additional features: Pierre Coffin & Kyle Balda's 2015 animated smash hit Minions, the 1989 Mike Diana tween SOV gore brainmelter Blood Brothers, Hal Ashby's 1986 drunken, burnt-out crime noir 8 Million Ways to Die, the 1980 Lamberto Bava necrophile horror Macabre, Andrew Stanton's beloved 2003 Pixar picture Finding Nemo, Hisayasu Sato's 1998 meta-sex-comedy Soft Skin, the G1 animated Transformers episodes "The Girl Who Loved Powerglide" and "Carnage in C-Minor", the 2004 Steven Spielberg "based on a true story" Capra homage The Terminal, Joel Schumacher's 2004 prestige film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Weber's musical The Phantom of the Opera, and the messy and in-your-face 1990 Irvin Kershner action sequel Robocop 2. In part three, we talk briefly about everything else we've watched since last time and make our picks for next week.
