A Spirited Perfect Ten

We don't do anything on our side that would cause that, and I can't see anyone on the outside going to the lengths to target your machine to do anything of the sort.

And we do not allow any third party access to any of our systems.

I wonder if he is seeing the "likes" thing in the browser title area?

If you could link...

Good.

And it isn't just pot stirring that's going on.
An investigation is under way, on some level, at USC.

I here they are bringing back Pete Carroll and Reggie Bush to be on the committee. I just hope, in addition to the Willow issues, they come to the bottom of Pete's decision to pass at the Patriots goal line. . .

Good suggestion. Easy way to find out - is the number matching the number of outstanding alerts.

Nah, we don't like him that much...

Am I the only one who wishes WDW1974 would just quickly spill the beans and tell us ALL of the good stuff we know he knows, Uni, Kidzone, disney EVERYTHING before he is quietly removed from the grid..

I doubt he'll be removed quietly because tin foil hats make a rather loud "Pop" when the grid expulsion process occurs.

A JII/DREAMFINDER/FIGMENT QUESTION AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The other big announcement— Rogue One (directed by Gareth Edwards) will be the name of the first Star Wars stand-alone film. No real detail about the story, but glad that it's not a Boba Fett or Han Solo "prequel" story... plus a female lead Felicity Jones. Seems promising.

It's as if they make sure all the crazies ask the questions.

WDA deserves credit. When they get an oscar it's usually well earned, though I can't comment on Ghibli since I haven't seen any of them...

when they ignore the competition like dreamworks just because the other movie is "hey its disney!".
the oscars have zero credibility in the animation department.

So, someone can't conclude a film is going to be good based on the trailers and promotional clips, but you can conclude it's going to be dull and uninteresting from those same clips. Tell me, what year did you win the Gold in Mental Gymnastics?

I thought my comment was pretty obvious. Whether it ends up a good movie or not (may or may not be), the trailers thus far have done a poor job at selling me on its quality and have presented the movie as bland and uncreative. That is their purpose, trailers are supposed to drum up interest in a film and make you want to see it, the two I've watched however have planted doubts in my mind about whether the movie will appeal to me. Again we shall see whether this is the case or not, but my point was that the trailers have caused me disinterest in the movie and caused me to hold off on seeing it until reviews.

It isn't a conclusion on the movie itself, it's a poor first impression of selling me on seeing it. The trailers switched me from giving them the benefit of the doubt to "wait for some reviews first".

I do take exception to your contention it was overrated, however. Despite being the #3 grossing film in 2013, its reviews were average to above average; its Rotten Tomatoes score is 89%, and the user score is 86% (these results are pretty middle-of-the-pack). As such, I would say that most people have a realistic view of the artistic and technical merits of Frozen. Hardly overrated.

I suspect there were more intangible qualities that helped it become the phenomenon that it did: strong female protagonists, identification with Elsa's sense of alienation, family bonds and unconditional love, sacrifice. Regardless, whatever caused Frozen to resonate with so many people is not invalidated simply because you don't understand (or disagree with) its popularity.

The sisters were one strong aspect of the movie. I liked them a lot and wished Elsa had more screentime. But I dislike Olaf and find him annoying and unnecessary. The villain was also worthless and uninteresting (a serious sin for a Disney movie imo is to have a boring and worthless villain, and this particular movie would have functioned fine without one at all). Also didn't like the trolls or the parents (both parties of which I consider at fault for leading Elsa down a poor path).

I'd rank the movie under the mid to high 80's. It is a fun little flick but doesn't deserve the general acclaim it got. And yes I would consider it overrated, highly so. Everyone was even saying it was as good as Beauty and the Beast. BS.

Don't forget the trailer that compared it to The Lion King. I liked it and all, but no. Just no.

this pretty much explains the BS of the parents lol.

What were the comments on Dreamfinder? I saw a few things on twitter but didn't get the full thing.

I think Bob prefers the crazies over actual questions.
