The Fan's Guide to Animation – Details, episodes & analysis

An animated movie about politics sounds boring, right? I would usually agree with you. However, it is impossible for anything to NOT be political these days. You hear the news and it’s one thing or another, most recently the traction the Black Lives Matter movement has gained. Zootopia is a movie that came out a few years ago, but is more relevant now than ever covering topics like racism and police reform. We talk about how the simple premise of buddy-cop movie with animals is unpacked and how it relates to the problems we face today.

We interrupt this program to give you this important message. Superman is a little sissy boy. And now back to our show... This week we answer the age old question, “Why so serious?” Freakazoid is nuts. Absolutely mental as our UK friends would say. That’s really the only way I can put it. Hopefully this episode can give you a little taste of what the House of Spielberg built. Enjoy.

Are you ready to jingle your bells?!? It’s that time of year again. Yuletide carols. Chestnut roasting. Marathons of the same 2 movies over and over again. So this year we decided to rake the bottom of the Christmas barrel and dig out the soon to be classic Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa. And oh buddy, you’re in for a treat. This is the worst thing we have ever done and I am so sorry for that. Enjoy!

Anime is great. Let’s just get that out there. Spirited Away is one of the greatest anime movies ever. So obviously, we had to do an episode on it at some point. It’s got whimsy. It’s got magic. It’s got dragons. It’s got everything. So here it is. Enjoy. Also Hayao Miyazaki is essentially the Steven Spielberg of animated movies, right? Like I’m totally right, right?

It’s Batman: Mask of The Phantasm’s 25th anniversary. It’s also at least somewhat related to Halloween. Kinda. Sorta. It’s got ghosts. It’s got death. It’s got costumes. What more could you want? I mean, yeah it’s just an excuse to talk about more Batman, but…shut up.

Okay before we get started, I need to know something. Are you cool? Because if you ain’t cool then don’t bother listening to this episode. This one’s only for the hepcats, hipsters, and beatniks out there. Cool World is a live-action/animation hybrid movie from the most confusing time period of all time (the 90’s.) So are you hip to the jive that I’m slingin’ at you, daddio?
