  Copyright © Viva Pictures, China Film Animation Title : Dragonkeeper Director : Salvador Sim ó, Li Jianping Based on : Dragonkeeper by Carole Wilkinson Release Date : May 3, 2024     Viva Pictures may be a nuance in today's animated film library. One of their films this year, Epic Tails , is not so bad but it should have done better in its writing and execution. In November, they are going to release Hitpig , which will be a film that uses pop-culture references and a star-studded cast for attention. Nothing else is good in the matter. For today, this review will be about Dragonkeeper , a Spanish-Chinese animated film based on the book of the same name! Its first releases were in Spain and China until Viva Pictures got the rights to release it in the United States this May. Against a budget of €24 million equaling around $31 million, the movie has done so terribly at the box office with a gross of $3.8 million. Albeit it does have its issues in both the animation and small

  Copyright © Netflix, DreamWorks Animation Television Title : The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist Director : Kevin Peaty, Christo Stamboliev Based on : The Bad Guys by Pierre Perifel (film) and Aaron Blabey (books) Release Date : October 3, 2024     Still continuing with DreamWorks' animated library of flicks this year, this one is another recent find. However, this will not be counted as a movie because it is classified as a TV special, which is a TV show by itself. This means this will not count as a movie review, primarily for the 2024 line of reviews, but reviewed anyway as this comes from an incredible movie. This special review is about The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist , the Halloween special of The Bad Guys franchise, which got released today! Just like the holiday special from last year, The Bad Guys: A Very Bad Holiday , this special was also released on Netflix as a streaming original project. Although this may not be anything bad, The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist is not much of a

Copyright © DreamWorks Animation, Universal Pictures Title : The Wild Robot Director : Chris Sanders Based on : The Wild Robot by Peter Brown Release Date : September 27, 2024     Remember Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate ? Yes, that was an awful movie. Unlike that one, this movie actually involved the real DreamWorks themselves. Today's movie is The Wild Robot , the latest animated movie released yesterday, which is based off of the book of the same name! As of right now, the movie's current gross is $18.5 million, against a $78 million budget. Even though this is not the final gross yet, the movie is doing well at the box office, thanks to its $35 million opening. The movie even gained extreme critical acclaim from both critics and audiences for its animation, story, and heart. As DreamWorks wraps up its in-house productions, The Wild Robot shows families an impressive story about how a robot becomes a loving mother. Summary    After being sent to a remote island, Roz (L

  Copyright © Peacock, DreamWorks Animation Television Title : Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate Director : Eric Fogel Release Date : March 1, 2024     A sequel to Megamind was one of the unexpected ideas on the bucket list of animated films this year. Scrapping the idea of going the theatrical route, this one chose to go straight to streaming, possibly due to budget cuts recently. Today's movie is Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate , the sequel to the underrated movie Megamind , which did not do well as DreamWorks wanted. Instead of even getting a mixed reception, the film has gotten mass criticism from both critics and audiences alike. They felt that this film was inferior to its predecessor because of its animation, story, and disrespect to the original. Agreeably, because the makers did not get the real DreamWorks Animation involved in the project,  Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate  shows evil disrespect to what its predecessor accomplished to become a good guy.

  Copyright © Walt Disney Pictures Title : Enchanted Director : Kevin Lima Release Date : November 21, 2007     Sure, Disney's live-action IP nowadays is a ruckus. All they want to do is make a bunch of soulless remakes of their animated classics in order to generate money. That brings us to a good question. What about Disney's live-action films that are original stories? Unlike most of these remakes in the current decade, their originals can give us astounding results. Since I did review Teen Beach Movie last year, it is time to review Enchanted , a live-action and animation hybrid that is Disney's most underlooked princess flick! Marking the return of the company's traditional animation, it serves as a parody of Disney's past films, most presumably their Disney Princess films in their many various eras. Going back to 2007, with a fair budget of $85 million, the movie performed successfully as it smashed with $340.5 million at the box office. To match, the mov
