Hello fellow wreckers of the interwebs! And a very Happy Thanksgiving to you! Today I’m thankful that turkey is something I only have to make once a year! With the Wreck-It Ralph event kicking off today, I’ll be doing a couple posts in order to split things up […]
It’s been a while since I’ve written about Elena of Avalor, but given that the epic season finale, Realm of the Jaquins just aired, I felt it was a great time to return to the series. I’ve talked a lot about Elena this past year and how it […]
I know what you’re thinking. Elena airs on Saturday yet this article is hitting all the way on Thursday. Well, it turns out that a slew of tech issues and very small window of actual time on my hands meant that this one got a bit delayed. First […]
A couple weeks ago we got an episode that I really loved (though when don’t I love an episode of this show) called Olaball. In the episode, Elena taught Gabe to play the kingdom’s favorite game, Olaball, in order to impress his father, who didn’t care that he […]

After weeks of teasing, advertising and hinting, the Disney Channel event, Elena and the Secret of Avalor finally hit the screen last night and wow is there a lot to talk about. Unlike the typical 20 minute episodes we’re accustomed to, this one clocked in at an hour […]
Japanese Title: Mononokehime Directed By: Hayao Miyazaki Produced By: Toshio Suzuki Originally Released: July 12, 1997 To say that Princess Mononoke is a masterpiece might actually be an understatement. Whether its a rich story full of environmentalist critique, deep, intriguing characters or phenomenal animation you’re […]
