For The First Time In Forever

David Karp, Mark Child, Jony Orta

Three friends talk about every Disney Animated Studios and Pixar Studios film, in chronological order from Snow White to, well...wherever we are now (and many films are first watches ever, hence the title!). Casual, nerdy, and probably a little bit dirty. Grab a beer or a coffee, relax, and enjoy our chat! And, oh yes...there will be spoilers.Logo artwork by Zuxiu Chen

2025/03/26

Dave, Mark and Jony discuss the 3rd package film in the 40's that were keeping the studio alive during wartime. And that film is 1946's "Make Mine Music"! This was a hard one to watch, as it is the only feature film in the Disney Animated Classics canon that is not on Disney +, or streaming in full length for that matter. The boys had to get creative, but alas! So, come discuss all the animated styles and story lines, a short that was pulled from subsequent release after it's depiction of gun...
