  Tangled 2010

  ★★★★ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Honestly this was amazing. Mother Goethel was an excellent gaslighter. Beautifully rendered looking like she was 7 feet tall compared to the other characters! Incredible voice performances by her and Mandy Moore. And the slapstick/pratfalls were just great. The part where she’s trying to stuff Flynn’s body into the closet. Every scene with the horse. Incredible.

  So thankful to have a little fantasy to escape to today 😭

  Raya and the Last Dragon 2021

  ★★★★½ Watched 01 Mar 2025

  Honestly it was so sick. Like a mix between Neverending Story and Indiana Jones or something. Everything about this movie was beautiful and well-thought out. Well, really, the funny parts weren’t funny, but I’d say everything else made up for that. I cried a bunch. Frankie said “can we watch it again” immediately when the credits rolled.

  And, come on. Trust thy neighbor. It’s a beautiful message 😭

  Spirited Away 2001

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 05 Feb 2025 1

  Another perfect mind-altering parable about the dangers of capitalism. FRIENDSHIP IS WORTH MORE THAN GOLD!

  When the dad is running toward the food at the beginning, there’s a brief closeup of his zipper. That’s what I’m talking about.
