  • Total Drama Review Week 22: Camp Castaways

    Total Drama Review Week 22: Camp Castaways

    When I first watched this episode I wasn’t a big fan. In context though, I was about eleven, and couldn’t really appreciate any non-elimination episodes. My thoughts on the episode have grown, but I’m still not a huge fan of […]

     
  • Total Drama Review Week 21: Haute Camp-Ture

    Total Drama Review Week 21: Haute Camp-Ture

    As a disclaimer, if you’re watching the American release, this episode is also known as “After the Dock of Shame.” Honestly I don’t know how to feel about this episode. On one hand, it’s a nice change of pace from […]

     
  • Ranking the Summer of Steven Episodes

    Ranking the Summer of Steven Episodes

    We just had 21 episodes of Steven Universe air over the course of the last 4 weeks. It was pretty insane after having only 10 air in the previous 9 months (seriously, it’s true). How good was this “Summer of Steven” […]

    Star vs. the Forces of Evil’s Lesson on Heroes

  • Total Drama Review Week 20: Trial by Tri Armed Triathlon

    Total Drama Review Week 20: Trial by Tri Armed Triathlon

    This is probably one of the sweetest episodes of the season. They took the final six we know and love, and threw them into pairs we don’t typically see on screen together. Geoff and Duncan, being from the Killer Bass, […]

    The Subtle Beauty of Steven Universe’s Title Cards

    Title cards are a staple in animation, and different shows tackle them differently. Some shows use the title card to show what the characters will be doing, such as in Fairly Odd Parents. Others, such as Spongebob Squarepants, typically just […]

     
  • Total Drama Review Week 19: Wawanakwa Gone Wild

    Total Drama Review Week 19: Wawanakwa Gone Wild

    I was dreading having to review this episode. This season, especially in the latter part, I’ve adored Izzy. She was such a fun character to have around, and she kept things fun and interesting. If she had to go though, […]

     
  • My Top Ten Animated Movies

    My Top Ten Animated Movies

    I promised this months ago. I know my Tumblr followers have patiently awaited this day, and it’s finally here. I’m going to put myself through the pain of ranking my top ten animated movies. This is very, very subjective and […]

     
  • Steven Universe Can Shake Things Up With One Big Boom

    Steven Universe Can Shake Things Up With One Big Boom

    Steven Universe is the best show on TV, has been for well over a year now, and yet is in desperate need of a shake-up to the show’s traditional format. It’s become increasingly obvious over the past few weeks of daily episodes […]

     
  • Batman: The Killing Joke Review

    Batman: The Killing Joke Review

    I had the pleasure of getting to see Batman: The Killing Joke in theaters and boy was it worth it. I’m going to keep this as spoiler-free as possible, but if you haven’t read the book some minor spoilers might […]
