Blu-ray Review: Cheech & Chong’s Animated Movie
Cheech & Chong’s Animated Movie reunites the legendary comedy duo for their first film in nearly thirty years.

Disney’s 32nd animated feature, 1994’s The Lion King was its darkest since 1985’s The Black Cauldron, and, in many ways, a departure from the light-heartedness of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin. There are moments of fun and humor, to be sure, but the undercurrent is of a far more serious, “adult” […]
