  1. None. I don’t think he has quite enough screen time in any of them to warrant covering them too (not even Civil War and especially not Endgame). Plus, even if only one was reviewed alongside the other nine, nearly a third of the films being covered would be repeats from the MCU episode.

  2. Decided to actually log back into Flickchart for the first time in a few years, re-rank the first five films covered on Part of Your World, and here some of the match-ups I wound up with:

    Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs vs. Pinocchio

    Pinocchio vs. The Fugitive

    Fantasia vs. Jurassic Park

    Dumbo vs. Logan

    Bambi vs. Dirty Dancing

    Absolutely. I've never heard of there being a racial furore for the animated Aladdin movie (moreso the live action film having a white guy involved), but Mulan's a good shout. Also the gypsies in Hunchback of Notre Dame and whether the film got the balance right. And if you think Hercules looks Greek in the slightest....

    Seconded. There are more instances of racism in the package films but Peter Pan will definitely be a big milestone in that discussion.

  4. Great episode gents! Can’t really comment on the films themselves since I’ve seen less than half of them and in each case it was ages ago, but The Killing and Paths of Glory both sound really interesting.

    I love that

    Spoiler

    you reached your top fives before getting to discuss more than a few films in proper detail and that none of you had the same favorite.

     

  5. Btw, a correction from a point I made about consequences for Disney villains: Cruella actually doesn’t get arrested (at least onscreen) by the end of the original film (though she does in the live-action remake and in the original’s direct-to-video sequel). Her Devilmobile is completely wrecked though.

    My understanding is that this wasn't the only time. There's talk of Stallone ghost-directing Cobra as well. Funny enough, I just rewatched Leviathan last night as it's gone from Tubi in a couple days. Great little Alien/Aliens ripoff from George Cosmatos.

    I could have also said Trent Haaga's Citizen Toxie but basically no one would know what I was talking about.

    Edit: here it is:

    "At one point during filming, Sylvester Stallone complained to cinematographer Ric Waite that they were falling behind, and said he and his crew needed to work harder. Waite responded by saying that if Stallone "gets his hands off Brigitte Nielsen's ass and stops showing off to his bodyguards, maybe they wouldn't have problems with time". Stallone was shocked that somebody would talk to him that way, but he toned down his ego for a few weeks. In an interview, Waite also said that Stallone had a great sense of humor, despite his huge ego. He also confirmed a rumor that Stallone was the true director of the film, calling credited director George P. Cosmatos a good producer, but a bad director."
