What is the most fascinating thing about cartoons? Is it the animation, the characters, or are the voices behind the characters the most important part? I guess we can all agree it's a little bit of everything. We've talked about the creation of animated films, the experience of voiceover artists, and the magic behind storyboarding. But have you ever heard of ADRs and loop groups?To tell you more about this interesting aspect of film and animation, we turn to industry veteran Terri Douglas. Terri, if you don't know her yet, is one of the most amazing people you will ever meet in the world of animation. She has voiced numerous characters, she cast hundreds of ADRs and loop groups, and she has started her own ADR voice company. She has experience on top of experience. After personally working with her in one of her loop groups, I can say with confidence that she is one you need to listen to. Luckily for us, she talks about everything in this episode of Alicyn's Wonderland.Show Notes:[2:38] How Terri began her journey into the world of animation and video games.[11:45] A general overview of ADR and loop groups.[25:24] How recording ADRs and loop groups have changed over the course of the pandemic.[34:15] The highlights of Terri's career.[43:07] Terri's list of favorite roles.[47:58] Q&A with Terri during the live IgTV.Follow along with Alicyn's Wonderland on:Instagram: @AlicynTikTok: @alicynpackardYouTube: Alicyn PackardTwitter: @Alicyn

Join Corbin and Allen as they breakdown the winners and losers, the big wins and big upsets of the night! Also, they talk how this is one of the strangest years and why this is likely one of the most forgettable of both ceremony and winners.

I've been hearing a lot of reviews and even a lot of theories but this movie wasn't good and we have to tell the truth here. This movie had a couple good things a tone of bad things.Starting with the good things:- it brought nostalgia back and i enjoyed that, up to a point when it was too much and it looked stupid; - John Williams...one of the best part of the whole saga 1 to 9...period; - Han Solo cameo...Harrison Ford brought value to this movie and i liked that father-son moment; - giving the fact that they had so little to work with they did a decent job with Leia;Other than that that's not really much good stuff in my opinion tbhLet's see the bad stuff:- PALPATINE: from where TF did you pull out Palpatine?!? and why?!? If you tell me that this was the plan all along, to bring Palpatine back i say BS...big BS. First of all if you want to bring him back built the story from the beginning right from TFA, don't throw him in the last episode. See Avengers or Lord of the rings...we know who's the bad guy there is no surprise there. The movie starts with a "death voice mail" from Palpatine, announcing everyone that he's back...not too smart from Palpatine, a master manipulator. Not to mention that we don't know how he got back, they just used a quote from the ROTS. I guess we have to wait for the book or for a leek to find out. The most disturbing fact about Palpatine's return in my opinion is that they took away Darth Vader's sacrifice. I mean the fact that he gave his life to destroy Palpatine means jack shit now; -general Hux: i liked the character in TFA and they could've built him but instead Ryan Johnson choose to smash him to the ground and walls. Not much room for fear and respect there. What did he end up? A spy and a traitor...what a stupid idea; -the knights of Ren: they did jack shit...nothing..ohh wait they did...they got killed...by Kylo Ren. They could've done so much more with them; - if there is something annoying in this movie than it's Rey and her over power skills...like when did you learn that and how?!? because Luke didn't teach her, by the contrary he din't teach her shit...maybe from Leia(because she can fly in space right). Force healing? blocking Palpatine's force lighting? i would've seen Yoda or Mace Windu doing that as high ranking Jedi masters but not Rey with 1 and a half year training; -Rey is Palpatine's niece: so Palpatine had a wife or girlfriend(where was she all this time) and they had a son. Why didn't he used his son for his purpose...he must've been strong with the force. Are we not going to talk about the fact that Palpatine had sex?!? lol; I mean i can keep write about stupid things that happened in all 3 movies but i feel i wrote too much anyway. The whole movie was a roller coaster with light speed. Jumping from a planet to another planet. Everything was rushed, i think they should've waited more. I mean it's the end of a saga, this movie should've been greater than Avengers End Game. The saddest thing is i felt nothing...i left the cinema and i felt nothing about Star Wars and i don't know who to blame? JJ, Rian, or Disney? How did we get here? Why they didn't used George Lucas? It's his "baby" anyway.To finish in a positive note i think there is still hope. The Mandolorian..brilliant tv show i love everything about it(i will write a separate review) and there is also Kenobi on the pipe which i'm dying to see it.Other than that i think you guys are doing an incredible job with your podcast, i'm totally your fan, i listen to you guys every week and i enjoy every episode. I wish you guys success and all the best in the new year. May the force be with you...always :)P.S. : please excuse my spelling mistakes or grammar :)

In order to separate this from the similar movie The Land Before Time (1988), the film was intended not to have any dialogue at all, but Michael Eisner of Disney insisted they include it.ii. The backgrounds in the movie are actually superimposed photos of exotic tropical locations such as Tahiti and Hawaii. iii. One original concept for the dialogue in the film would have seen the characters not moving their lips and beaks to talk but rather as voice-overs, similar to Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey (1993).iv. Initially, the directors were to use the popular Tyrannosaurus as the film's antagonistic predator but at around the time of production, The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) was released, which depicted a somewhat softer, motherly side to the classic dinosaur. Thus, a Carnotaurus was used. However, they still changed the Carnotaurus's size and ferocity to that of a Tyrannosaurus. In real life, Carnotaurs were smaller than Iguanodons. v. At an official $130 million (unofficially $200 million) it is the most expensive movie released in 2000.vi. The original planned opening shot, showing the meteor moving through space, was cut when an identical opening shot was used in Armageddon (1998).vii. Unfortunately the Plot ended up like Tarzan in many ways viii. The attraction called Dinosaur (previously called Countdown to Extinction) at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park was originally to be created/opened at the same time as the movie's release as part of the company's "synchronicity" between branches of the WDC, but due to the overwhelming technology development required to begin production, the film's opening was delayed. Even though it was started after the film was in-production, the theme park ride opened first (by almost 18 months) before the movie's release; hence, the ride's name change later.ix. First Disney Animated Feature Film to be Computer Animated instead of Traditionally Hand Drawn. Starting with Chicken Little (2005) 5 years later, all films in the Animated Feature Film line up would be 3D Animated, with the exceptions of The Princess and the Frog (2009) and Winnie the Pooh (2011)● Segment: This week in Disney history “Once Upon a Time”○ June 5 1998 - Disney's 36th animated feature film Mulan premieres at the Hollywood Bowl in California.○ June 7 2002 - Disney's animated series Kim Possible premieres on Disney Channel with 3 back-to-back episodes.● Segment: News/Announcements “The Newsies Banner”○ Pixar’s Next Film: Onward ● Segment: Top 4 Ranking “Let’s get down to business” ○ Disney Animation Studios Computer Generated Films:○ 1.

Canadian filmmaker Cam Christiansen took Hare’s monologue and crafted it into a feature-length animated film that makes its theatrical debut in Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary on August 17.
