This week, we time travel back to 2001's "Halloweentown 2: Kalabar's Revenge". How does this movie compare to the first? How do we feel about time travel? Does this movie hold up? All of that and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, "The Journey of Natty Gann" celebrates its 35th anniversary. This 1985 period piece seems to escaped us for all this time. Why is this movie forgotten about? Is the subject matter too heavy? Does this even feel like a Disney movie? All of this and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we discuss 1947's "Fun and Fancy Free". Hampered due to budget restrictions during and following World War 2, this film is comprised of two stories that were meant to be full length features. Does the movie feel complete? Does the composition make sense? Should we see a remake? All of this and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we go back to college to review and discuss 2013's "Monsters University". How does it compare to Monsters Inc? Were we mislead by the trailer? Do we need a third installment? All of that and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we played Monoreel Radio roulette and landed on 1954's "20,000 Leagues Under The Sea". An all star cast makes up this groundbreaking film, but how does it compare to more modern films? Is it under-represented in the Parks? All of this and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we review and discuss "Treasure Planet". How does it compare to the other incarnations of "Treasure Island"? Should it be remade? All of that and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we continue our discussion of Disney's adaptations of the classic Robert Louis Stevenson novel and discuss "Muppet Treasure Island". How does it compare to the book?

This week, we review and discuss 1950's "Treasure Island". This adaptation of the classic novel just turned 70 years old, but does it feel it's age? How does it compare to the more modern pirate films? How did Walt do with his first attempt at live action film? All of that and more this week on Monoreel Radio.

This week, we celebrate our 100th episode by counting down the top five  movies that we’d want to show Walt Disney, joined by special guests Brendan and Katherine Wright of the Detour to Neverland podcast. Since Walt’s passing in 1966, the company has seen many ups and downs, so we thought it was important to discuss what he missed out on. Find out what made our lists, what did not and why. All that and more this week on Monoreel Radio.
