Asterix: The Land of the Gods
As far as I know, this is the first Asterix animated film done in CG, and they did a really great job with it. The animation is definitely on par with what you expect to see from an American CG movie these days, and I thought it was a great adaptation of the original book.…

Star Wars Rebels
As I’ve written recently, I prefer to watch shows after the season is over these days, but as I continue to get hyped for The Force Awakens (and finally bought tickets for a showing the other night) I decided to go through what’s aired so far of season 2 of Star Wars Rebels. I quite…

Hotel Transylvania 2
Following yesterday’s awesome news about a new season of Samurai Jack coming our way next year, I got a double dose of Genndy by watching Hotel Transylvania 2 (he directed it), which I’d say is even better than the first one. What I love so much about these two movies is that they are the…

Samurai Jack
I’m so incredibly happy at the news that Samurai Jack is coming back next year for a new season, and with Genndy Tartakovsky still involved. The series is absolutely one of my favorites, and I’m celebrating by watching some of it again (I’m currently progressing through season 2). I love everything about the show, from…

Walt Disney Animation Studios Short Films Collection
This is one of the best things I’ve seen from Disney in forever. Such a fantastic collection of shorts, and it just made me realize how much I wish we got more things like this – not movies, not TV shows, but just shorts that allow for interesting bursts of creativity. Also, it makes me…

Moonbeam City
I am so in love with this show. I keep trying to really get into Archer – I don’t hate it or anything, but can’t get into a groove of watching multiple episodes for some reason. Moonbeam City is getting compared to Archer a lot – animated comedy for adults that relates to law enforcement…

Steven Universe
I had heard mention of this series before, and it sounded like something I’d like, but just never got around to checking it out. I finally got around to it – I’ve watched the first few episodes of season 1 – and now I see what all the fuss is about. This is indeed a…

Big Hero 6
It starts off slower than I’d like, but once things got rolling, this was a pretty fun movie to watch. Loved the San Fransokyo setting, and they did a good job with the characters and the abilities. Not much else to say really, just good fun with slick visuals.

Frozen
Yes, I finally got around to watching this. It’s certainly a lovely film to watch on a technical level, but in terms of story and characters, I preferred Tangled. And yes, the fact that “Let It Go” has been so overexposed over the past year really makes it annoying when it comes up, but I…

Over the Garden Wall
This is such a fantastically wonderful series, I can’t recommend it enough. I’m not done watching all of the episodes yet – it’s a 10-episode mini-series, and each episode is pretty short – but I already know that it’s going to be something I’ll continue to enjoy for a long time to come. I really…
