@HotGoomba, yeah, I think it's a Disney+ issue. I've had similar issues during certain scenes in Moon Knight & Obi-Wan Kenobi off the top of my head.

No issues with Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, or physical media.

@RR529 my Prime Video app's audio is a bit weird with my wireless headphones but I'd still say the service is good.

The audio problem is fixable, it's just annoying to deal with every time I launch the app.

Lyle Lyle Crocodile on Netflix, to my surprise this movie was up on the service. Mom and I watched this one and we both loved it. A good chunk of the movie brought a smile to my face, and the musical numbers were pretty fun. The story was rather sweet, a crocodile helps a boy overcome his fear of moving to New York City, while helping the boy's family enjoy the things they love to do, but lost interest in. Seeing Mr. Primm body slam Allister Grumps was satisfying, boy I did not like Grumps at all.

The resident Trolls superfan! Looking forward to Trolls Band Together this November!

@Sunsy The movie doesn't look bad, but the idea of Shawn Mendes singing as an animated crocodile is absolutely hilarious to me.

The link on my profile got even worse.

@HotGoomba you should watch it’s documentary on Disney plus it’s suprisingly honest and revealing. It shows the absolute dumpster fire that was its production

HBO max is the worst streaming service I will stand by that. Mostly because I love infinity train and the only way to watch it by
Yo-ho-hoing and sailing the seven seas.

I fear no man
but that thing:
The carrot minigame from bowser's inside story
it scares me

Owl1

@WaffleBoat so you mean using a torrent and downloading it via somewhat safe websites. In other words Yo-ho-ho and RRRRR!

@Kermit1
Yes. I would say watch infinity train but you can’t because hbo max is dumb. But why watch a good show when Velma exists.
I’m done with being negative now. So Tennessee exists now laugh haha.

@Kermit1 I'm honestly somehow surprised we're getting a Toy Story 5, even though I probably shouldn't be at this point...

OBJECTION! TAKE THAT!

As it's Valentine's thingy I was trying to think of a decent lovey dovey/xxx/relationship movie to watch tomorrow and inadvertently came up with my top movies for Vday list.

Truly Madly Deeply, it's like Ghost but British so therefore it’s a better film obviously. It’s probably my favourite performance from the late great Alan Rickman.

King Kong, it's a giant monkey fighting so he can be with his hot blonde girlfriend.

Three Thousand Years Of Solitude, if I ignore the wonky third act this is maybe my favourite film of last year. It basically boils down to two strangers, one a romantic and the other a shrew divorcee debating the idea of love.

Blue Is The Warmest Colour, forget it's much talked about love making scenes what sells the film to me more than anything else was that raw and honest bit where she was trying to get back together with her ex.

Paint Your Wagon, I saw it after coming across the film during the day on the telly thinking it's a 60s Westerner with Clint Eastwood in the mould of The Good, The Bad & The Ugly only to see it’s a musical about a polyamorous relationship and how the town judges them. Going into it expecting a completely different movie actually made it better since you have to ask yourself questions like what exactly is this oddly charming thrash film, why is The Man With No Name singing instead of blasting fools or why am I even still watching it?

Secretary, spanky spank.

High Fidelity, I'm not sure the London to Chicago translation works or that it's aged well but a guy over intellectualises his past break ups is fun to watch as he has to come up to the realisation that he was the ahole in them not her plus the soundtrack slaps. The show with Zoe Kravitz was decent too.

The Lobster, you will either love it or hate it but at least we can all agree on it’s bloody weird.

Gone Girl, then b’s be crazy. A story about the lengths a wife has to go to for the perfect happy marriage and how unappreciated it is by her lazy husband.

Amour, old fogeys are capable of love too! It's proper heart-breaking stuff however it’s French and French is the language of love.

Chasing Amy, I really liked the ending of this guy comes up with an idea that he's so confident in it will fix his insecurities with his relationship only for her to be utterly disgusted by it. The highlight for me is a moment when two of the characters are at a bar swapping stories about how they got various scars and injuries from their past relationships which made me go oh, that's happened to me too, I'm not alone.

The Audition, often remembered for its big final act but no one talks about how she was in the right. She was tricked with the audition (#metoo anyone) and all she asked for was to be loved which he couldn't do.

Just watched Mannequin (from 1987) as my Wife watched it loads when she was a kid and loved it.

Well......it is certainly of it's time, if you are easily offended by Toxic Masculinity, Homophobia, Post traumatic stress syndrome, dont watch it.

But the story overall is just mental, a guy creates a mannequin, it comes to life (as its a re-incarnation of an Egyptian Princess), but only he can see her moving, until he saves her for an industrial wood chipper which is found in the back of a department store.

Well I think it was one of Kim Catrell (Samantha from Sex in the City) and James Spader (Ultron, Blacklist etc) first films

I know I am late to the party, but I just got done with Wakanda forever. I enjoyed my time with it overall. It has all of the worst parts of the MCU and just movies in general these days. It is way, way, too long and filled with ***** production values and action scenes that look like they were created by AI in post and inserted into the film at random, which add absolutely nothing to the wider film and could easily be removed. I also personally don’t like anti-vax weirdo Letitia Wright (along with claims of her also being both homophobic and transphobic) being rewarded with Shuri's arc in the film. But that isn't really something I can hold against the film itself, and Wright is in fact quite good in this film.

I just didn't really expect them to face Boseman's death head on like they do or treat the subject with the kind of maturity that they do. I also have said it before but at this point the MCU is basically too big to fail, and while it is cool when they use that fact to have a movie where three different Spider-Men team up to fight villains from old movies, I also think it is cool when they use that fact to explore a topic like grief through a series of unique, strong, female voices of colour. Even five years ago I'm not sure an MCU film like this could have existed, and I feel like the film is an achievement and celebration just for existing. The fact that it is also just generally a good time is almost a bonus.

Currently playing a LOT of Marvel Snap on Mobile and The Last of Us Part 2 (pray for me).
