Disney

A look ahead to the cinema of 2019

For the past two Januarys I have cast my eye into the murky abyss of the future in an attempt to predict what the year’s cinematic releases have in store for us. Some of my predictions have been spot on (I guessed Transformers: The Last Knight would be atrocious and it was – who would […]

Hunny, Tea and CG

Since the release of The Jungle Book in 2016, there seems to have been non-stop Walt Disney Studios live-action and CGI remakes, whether that’s with minimal-but-present story modernisation like 2017’s Beauty And The Beast or (going back a few years) a complete rethinking with Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland in 2010.

Each track evokes a completely different vibe whilst masterfully managing to work seamlessly as a complete work. Starting out with single ‘Sorry Not Sorry’, it’s a change of pace for Demi, who is known for […]

Is Star Wars becoming oversaturated?
