BIG HERO 6 Review

Yesterday it finally happened, we went to see Big Hero 6!!

And I truly had an incredible time and thoroughly enjoyed the movie from beginning to end.

(I also think my daughter did not blink  because she was THAT entertained by Baymax)

Big Hero 6 is a huge, HUGE difference from last years disappointment that is known as FROZEN.

I couldn't stand it.

The opening song is basically not just a foreshadowing of what's to come in the movie, but it actually is the entire movie, sung.

No real suspense, not really a female empowerment theme, it's just bland.

For me at least, not even Olaf could save it.

And now with Big Hero 6, you can tell that the story was better thought through.

There's definitely better character interaction and development.

From Tadashi, Hiro, Honey, Baymax, and the rest of the characters, there is more of a connection. I could identify with them.

But ultimately, I think I can identify (just like everyone else does) myself with is Baymax.

Loveable, cuddly, funny, pure, (yes, I know he's just a robot) but it's everything I am looking for in a character.

A stronger YAY for me with this film was that from the beginning there is a clear emphasis on the potential for S.T.E.M. education.

I loved that Tadashi encourages Hiro from the very beginning to unleash his genius potential in order to motivate him to go to his university where it is obviously a strong S.T.E.M. program.

I'm a supporter and I just loved how by incorporating these programs into a movie, it will (hopefully) motivate younger kids to look into a career in these fields.

I loved how it emphasized the creativity and ingenuity of the characters to bring out their best potentials in order to trap the Kabuki mask man.

The film has so much to offer, and I really don't want to give it away, specially for those of you who haven't had a chance to catch it.

So, did I like it? NO....

I absolutely LOVED it!!!

This is a incredible comeback (in my opinion) after the let down of Frozen.

Guys if you can, go see it, it is truly worth spending your hard earned money for.

***Spoiler Alert***

Wait for the roll of the entire roll of the end credits... you guys might be genuinely surprised!! "wink, wink."

Gotta Run Away Fast.

We've all seen the trailers for the upcoming release of Pokemon: Detective Pikachu  and most of us have gotten excited to see our favorite Pokemon come to life (CGI, of course) on the big screen. One of the most iconic Pokemon have been Pikachu, and what we've seen, he is stinkingly adorable in anime form or live-action. The animation for the CGI was well handled for what we've been able to gather from the trailers. digitalspy.com So, it makes sense that other production companies want to cash in the nostalgia fever and releases their own spin on classic icons of classic games. But, what in the HECK are you guys thinking at Paramount?!?! About a day ago or so, the trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog movie was release, and let me tell you, Sonic looks like something that was brought from the darkest pits of hell. Seriously, what were the animators thinking?! It's not cute, nor endearing, or even worth of the namesake. Newsweek.com Whatever that was, it was...

Sink your teeth into Castlevania.

It is almost February and within the time that I've been missing, there have been so many news, that it is kind of hard to talk to you guys about everything. Lately, I must admit that I've been in a weird funk of watching interesting shows, movies, that are not necessarily in everyone's radar. Yes, I could talk about the upcoming Captain Marvel movie, or anything else that has been buzzing around the internet. But lately, with all the nay-sayers, I've kinda gotten into this funk of finding lost treasure in shows that might not be well known, or given enough time of day, due to either people not knowing, or just glossing over.  One of those 'diamonds in the rough' that I recently was made aware of is 'Castlevania' on Netflix. There's only two seasons of the animated series, and I basically binged watched season 1 yesterday with the Hubby.  And seriously, if you haven't seen this animated series, it really is damned good. (See w...

Not your Mother's She-Ra.

On November 13, Netflix finally premiered 'She-Ra & The Princesses of Power.' Not sure if it was long awaited (for other people, I was absolutely waiting for this!)  and even before it was released it was met with a bit of controversy due to the new styling. Well, my daughter and I sat to binge watched season 1 and let me tell you, it was absolutely perfectly well balanced. For those of us old enough to remember the original series, there are tons of references to characters, events, etc. It doesn't dwell too much into, but it gives a respectful nod to the original series. It isn't a carbon copy of the 80's She-ra and it isn't completely different (I'm assuming this was done for the 'nay-sayers.').  It is very well balanced with new elements and nostalgia inducing references. imdb.com Character development is also well done, I absolutely love the fact that Cattra was given a much rounder, complex backstory in this rebo...
