Get in, losers, we're going to Laputa! This week we take flight with Pazu, Sheeta, and a gang of pirates with some seriously questionable motives to find the mythical land in the clouds where cool robots take care of birds (and shoot lasers). It's the first true Ghibli film, and, man, does it set the bar pretty high. Also... what the hell is going on with the English dub of this film? Next week, it's our very first Takahata film, GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES.

What does it actually take to finance an indie animated feature?I break down where The Arbiters currently stands—over a third of the way storyboarded—and the real strategies we're using to push it forward. From grants and early-stage investors to the “chicken or egg” problem of attaching talent, this is an honest look at the process most people don't see.I also dive into unconventional approaches like brand alignment—not product placement—and why I'm choosing to focus resources on the film itself instead of chasing content for the sake of visibility.This is about momentum, resource allocation, and doing whatever it takes to keep the project moving.If you're a filmmaker or creator trying to fund something ambitious, this one's for you.

Most movie debates are trivial—until you realize how fiercely we cling to our favorites. What if your all-time top flicks aren't just about entertainment but reveal your deeper tastes, biases, and identity? In this episode of Three on Three, Diandre Robinson and his friends dive into hilarious, wild, and surprisingly revealing rankings of 100 iconic movies. From childhood classics like The Lion King to gritty favorites like Goodfellas, they challenge each other with bold choices, heartfelt critiques, and shocking upsets—all while blending comedy, nostalgia, and genuine insight. You'll discover how categorizing movies by Rotten Tomatoes scores can spark unexpected rivalries: why Schindler's List sparks tears, why American Pie is more iconic than Goodfellas in the cultural lexicon, and which movies undoubtedly make fans want to defend their pick to the death. Get a behind-the-scenes look at their unpredictable tournament-style brackets—an emotional rollercoaster that exposes personal stories, cultural identity, and cinematic passions. This isn't just about movies; it's about how films shape our perceptions and bonds. We break down: hilarious ranking battles, the real reasons some movies triumph over favorite classics, and the personal stories linked to each choice. Why does The Lion King top the list? How does Forrest Gump sneak into the top three despite fierce competition? And what does your movie roster say about your values? These debates are about more than entertainment; they're cultural conversations about race, nostalgia, and what it means to truly love a movie. Why should you listen? Because in understanding these choices, you understand yourself—and the world around you. Whether you're a cinephile, a casual viewer, or just someone who loves good laugh-out-loud debates, this episode offers pure entertainment and unfiltered honesty. Plus, you'll get some fun, unexpected insights on Hollywood classics, hidden gems, and the movies that define generations. Perfect for movie lovers, cultural critics, or anyone curious about how films impact identity—this episode will entertain, surprise, and maybe even make you rethink your own list.

And what disturbing story elements did Disney change from the original novel when they created their feature film?On this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we follow the second start to the right as we explore the fascinating art, history, animation, and development of Disney's Peter Pan animated feature film. Along the way, we discover some bizarre truths about the original novel, find some unique connections between Peter Pan and another iconic Disney attraction, and hear some behind-the-scenes stories of how this film was created. This episode also includes excerpts from a 1953 document from Walt Disney explaining why Peter Pan was so dear to his heart and what it meant to him on a personal level. Kate gives us some insight into how Tinker Bell was created, Kirk explains the origin of the Lost Boys, and we take a moment to reflect on the similarities between two creative men and what a boy who didn't want to grow up meant to them. Join us LIVE on YouTube every week!

We count down our Top 10 films of the year, endure our Bottom 5 cinematic disasters, and spotlight the Best 5 Animated Films, where craft, imagination, and risk still seem to matter.Once the autopsy is complete, we turn our attention forward. What does 2026 look like on paper? Which projects feel like genuine events, which smell like studio obligation, and which are quietly flying under the radar? We sort through the release calendar, argue about hype versus substance, and lock in the films we'll be reviewing next year.Awards season positioning, franchise fatigue, original swings, animation's quiet resurgence — it's all on the table. One last look back, one clear-eyed look ahead, and absolutely no mercy for bad movies.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Earlier this month, and just in time for Christmas, Focus on the Family made a fun announcement: an upcoming theatrical adaptation of Adventures in Odyssey. Dubbed Journey Into The Impossible, this 3D animated film will explore the town of Odyssey before the establishment of Whit's End. What kinds of adventures will a young John Avery Whittaker enjoy? (This special episode was recorded live.) Episode sponsors Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queen A Faie Tale by Vince Mancuso MYTH: Reign of the Immortals by J. F.

Sheehan Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild Quotes and notes ‘Adventures in Odyssey' Goes to the Movies? , Lorehaven, Dec. 4 ‘Adventures in Odyssey' Goes to the Movies? Adventures in Odyssey is releasing a new animated feature film. The working title is Journey into the Impossible. It’s scheduled for a theatrical release in fall 2026. Unlike previous video releases, this film is canon to the audio drama timeline. It serves as a prequel set years before the main series. The film will focus on a younger John Avery Whittaker (Whit), his wife Jenny, and their son Jason. The movie will feature 3D animation stylized with a “2D storybook appearance.” Creators say this will blend modern production quality with a nostalgic visual aesthetic. The project is led by long-time Adventures in Odyssey showrunner Dave Arnold. It also features work by former Disney animator John Pomeroy, ensuring faithfulness to the show’s legacy. A major goal of the film is to introduce the franchise to a new generation of families who may not be familiar with the 1,000+ episode audio drama. We discuss Whit's enduring appeal as a “positive patriarch.” He is a wise, capable, and gentle male role model, contrasting with many father figures in modern media. The creators are prioritizing a theatrical release to encourage families, churches, and homeschool groups to watch it together as a community event, rather than just streaming it individually. Next on Fantastical Truth “In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the world disappear.” Jesus returned thirty years ago. Or rather, He sort of pre-returned, the warm-up act, if you will. Many faithful Christians believe in this kind of “rapture.” And in December 1995, two authors teamed up and used this idea to create the most successful biblical end-times thriller we've yet seen. Last summer, we looked back on the Left Behind series legacy. Yet now we'll ask how that first Left Behind novel has aged, thirty years after its release.
