Vote On The July 2020 What A Cartoon Movie!
Added 2020-06-01 18:39:20 +0000 UTCHey there Talking Simpsons Network supporters, we have a little surprise for you! If you listened to our most recent Talk To The Audience?!?! episode, we're doing the July poll for the next subject of our premium podcast a few weeks earlier than usual.
Why? Well, we're so far ahead in podcast recordings at the moment that we actually have the time in June to not only record June's What A Cartoon Movie! podcast (Space Jam), but also to fit in the recording of our July podcast, so the sooner you help us choose it, the sooner we can record it!
If you didn't know, once a month we release the What A Cartoon Movie! podcast, an extra-long discussion about an animated film, exclusively for our $10 Patreon subscribers. And when we open up the voting for each month's subject, we want all the $5 subscribers to also have a chance to be heard, so those subscribers can help pick episodes they might enjoy down the line!
So what will the subject of July 2020's movie be? We've celebrated so many Disney classics already, we feel it's now time to celebrate Disney's biggest flops. That's right, you'll be choosing one of Disney's four most poorly received animated films!
Your four dismal Disney choices are:
The Black Cauldron (1985), the nadir of a very dark era in Disney animation that ended up being cut to shreds by executives before it was even released!
Dinosaur (2000), the once-visually impressive but now quite bland CGI film that imagines the life of an iguanodon as the meteors start hitting!
Home on the Range (2004), once seen as the film that destroyed Disney's 2D animation, and you will believe that Roseanne can play a cow!
Treasure Planet (2002), the overly ambitious and too expensive film that mistakenly assumed that kids of the early 2000s cared about Treasure Island in Space!
So please, make your voices heard before the poll closes on the night of June 8! Thanks as always for your amazing support, and know that we're really looking forward to recording July's podcast ASAP!

That's funny cause I voted for Home on the Range because Bob mentioned the name once or twice on the show
2020-06-10 05:26:25 +0000 UTCEven though this podcasts gives me all sorts of anxiety trying to keep up with listening to all the episodes I would actually up my patreon amount to 10 bucks for the month just to hear about The Black Cauldron. I have a soft spot for this film from my childhood and even watched it recently. No, it isn't a good film, but it's not as ho hum as some of Disney's other duds with memorable characters. I even have the first two Lloyd Alexander books that the movie is based on. (Of course I have yet to read them.)

2020-06-05 17:29:37 +0000 UTCI chose Dinosaur, because I wanted to hear how they basically ripped off Land Before Time with a bigger budget and lost. But, with Disney+, now people in my generation may be rewatching Black Cauldron for the first time. Then realizing how it lost to The Care Bears Movie when we were children.
2020-06-05 09:38:06 +0000 UTCI always vote for the ones I know the least about, so that bob and henry can learn me good

2020-06-03 20:16:50 +0000 UTCRooting for Treasure Planet, but if it's going to lose at least it's to Black Cauldron and not those other two.

2020-06-02 14:55:48 +0000 UTCBlack Cauldron is another one of those "beautiful disaster" pieces of film. There are some fantastic sequences in that movie with imagery that is almost shocking for a Disney feature, but as a movie it's definitely not good. I think I dislike every main character in the film. It's actually a shame it's such a sore spot for Disney because The Horned King would make a great Kingdom Hearts villain.

2020-06-02 13:16:23 +0000 UTCI remember hearing the production hurdles of getting Treasure Planet made from Lindsey Ellis. Should be an interesting one

2020-06-02 00:40:57 +0000 UTCVoting for Treasure Planet, because it’s way better than you guys gave it credit for.

2020-06-01 23:05:31 +0000 UTCHave to go with Treasure Planet, the film my way too young brother attended with me and my mother who spent the whole drive back criticising why I found Martin Short’s character annoying and also non sequitur accusing me of being gay! (Close but not quite!) Black Cauldron has some cool designs but is a total slog.

2020-06-01 23:02:29 +0000 UTCI know it would be subjecting you to misery but I was really hoping Chicken Little would be on this list.
