No good ever came from Disney's cheapo direct to video sequels. I still remember The Jungle Book 2.

Finally rewatched Mulan (the proper one) and now Im going to watch Mulan II. I dont expect good things. Im surprised to see it didnt come out till 2005, thats a long time after the first one. I dont know if thats a good thing or not. I was forced to watch Mulan 2 a while back, passed out in the middle. Not a good experience.

Eh. It wasn't good but felt like they were at least trying. I expected worse.

My daughter has got me into watching A Series of Unfortunate Events with her on Netflix. I can imagine it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, but I've been enjoying it (she didn't get me to watch it with her until she started season 2 though, so I can't speak for earlier episodes).

Mrs Pinwig's film choice for the evening is a low budget adaptation of Robinson Crusoe starring Pierce Brosnan. This is like watching the Monty Python 'it's' man doing an impression of Billy Connolly.

Just watched Kubo and the 2 Strings. That was damned good.

I will have to upgrade to Blu Ray for that at some point.

Decided to try Marvels 616.
The brute Force episode is brilliant.

Yeah the tone took some getting used to after the previous episodes but it was worth sticking with it just to see the "voice actors" takes on the characters.

The Zoom call was a much needed tonic this evening. Muppets Christmas Carol deployed to try and resurrect the Christmas spirit.

I have mislaid the Tenet disc. Buggered if I can find it. Tomorrow, The New Mutants arrives though I won't believe it exists until I'm watching it.

Mulan 2020 is now no longer behind a pay wall on Disney Plus so will give it a whirl.

We started to watch that the other day, but it all seemed a bit unconvincing with over-edited action and we only made it 20 minutes in. Should probably give it another go one day.
Instead we chanced upon and watched Werner Herzog's volcano documentary on Netflix, which was pretty good.

I haven't seen Mulan yet. Still hoping it gets a cinema release later, so I can see it first on the size of screen it was made for.
