Welcome to the Literary License Podcast! This month is Dark Families Month, where we delve into family films with a dark twist. Join us as we explore two intriguing films: The Black Cauldron and The Spiderwick Chronicles. First, we dive into the 1985 animated classic, The Black Cauldron. Set in a mythical land during the early Middle Ages, this film follows a young swineherder and his companions as they battle the wicked Horned King. We'll discuss the film's beautiful animation, its mixed critical reception, and its impact on Disney's animation department. Next, we journey through the magical world of The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008). This film, based on the popular book series, features three children who discover a field guide to fairies and encounter various magical creatures. We'll explore the film's visuals, the performances of its cast, and how it stacks up against its source material. Join hosts Joe and Vicki as they discuss the enchanting darkness of these family films and share their thoughts on what makes them stand out—or fall short.

Hey, y'all,And welcome to Pyrthian! I mean, Prydain! A land where the big bad evil guy, also known as the Horned King, is trying to locate a magical weapon - said weapon being a PIG that can help him find the location of the black cauldron so he can bring his undead army back to life.We have a male main character that is useless, we have a female main character that takes no shit and saves her own ass, we have the comic relief in the form of a jester, and a Gurgi (dog-like creature) as our group of heroes.Confused? So were we. Does it sound a bit like another world you know? Almost similar in name? Yea.....we thought so too.

Hungry for power and knowledge, Sparrowhawk tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death's threshold to restore the balance. The Book of Three: The Chronicles of Prydain #1 by Lloyd Alexander Taran wanted to be a hero, and looking after a pig wasn't exactly heroic, even though Hen Wen was an oracular pig. But the day that Hen Wen vanished, Taran was led into an enchanting and perilous world. With his band of followers, he confronted the Horned King and his terrible Cauldron-Born. These were the forces of evil, and only Hen Wen knew the secret of keeping the kingdom of Prydain safe from them. But who would find her first? Discussion Both of these are classic books, the first in series, and bildugsromans. Which did you prefer? Do you think they are similar in form? Favorite characters? Least favorite character?

In which the Mister and the Monsters join me in reviewing THE BLACK CAULDRON (1985), currently streaming on Disney+. Loosely based on the CHRONICLES OF PRYDAIN series of books by Lloyd Alexander, the film tells the story of the evil Horned King's quest for a mystical cauldron that will enable him to raise an army of the dead and conquer the world. Only a young boy named Taran (voiced by Grant Bardsley), a princess (Eilonwy/Susan Sheridan), a bard (Fflewddur Fflam/Nigel Hawthorne) and a creature named Gurgi (voiced by John Byner) stand in his way. Will the Horned King (John Hurt) reach his diabolical goal? Co-directed by Ted Berman and Richard Rich from a script credited to Ted Berman, Vance Gerry, Joe Hale, David Jonas, Roy Morita, Richard Rich, Art Stevens and Al Wilson; it was the first Disney film to receive a PG rating, feature computer-generated imagery and was only release in home video format in 1998 in part because of its commercial failure.

This is not an easy task, for The Evil Horned King will stop at nothing to get the power of the cauldron.Taran along with the young princess Eilonwy, the bard Fflewddur Fflam, and a wild creature named Gurgi seek to destroy the cauldron, to prevent the Horned King from ruling the world.● Trivia:● The movie is loosely based upon the first two books in Lloyd Alexander's Prydain Chronicles ("The Book of Three" and "The Black Cauldron"). ● The first Disney animated movie to not contain any songs, neither performed by characters nor in the background.● This movie is notable for being the first full-length Disney animated movie to incorporate computer graphics imagery (CGI) in its animation. The CGI was utilized for a lot of the special effects, which included the bubbles, a boat, a floating orb of light, the Cauldron, the realistic flames seen near the end of the movie, and the boat that Taran and his friends used to escape the castle. The dimensions and volume of the animated objects were fed into a computer and then their shapes were manipulated through computer programming before they were transferred as physical outlines the animators could work on. Despite this movie being released a year before The Great Mouse Detective (1986), both were in production simultaneously, and the computer graphics for the latter were done first. When Producer Joe Hale heard about what was being done, the possibilities made him excited, and he made the crew from The Great Mouse Detective (1986) create some computer animation for his own movie. For others effects, Animator Don Paul used live-action footage of dry ice mists to create the steam and smoke coming out of the Cauldron.● Tim Burton, worked as a Conceptual Artist on this movie● The first Disney animated theatrical movie to receive a PG rating, and had been the only one to have that rating up until The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and Dinosaur(2000). ● There is an urban legend that, despite the movie's failure in the U.S., it was popular in Japan, so much so, that the creator of the Legend of Zelda series, Shigeru Miyamoto, based a lot of the game's elements on this movie. ● When the Horned King activates the power of the Black Cauldron, the sound of a space shuttle launch was used.● Segment: Misc “Whosits and Whatsits Galore” ● Comicpaloozao First started attending in 2014o We are Cosplayers!o First cosplay contest in 2015 with a Disney Princess Wrap Battle Skit as Anna, Elsa and Ariel.● This year Kerry Entered a solo Skit as Human Tamatoao Story of Audio issues and what happened to Kerryo Going at the end and winning best skito Tamatoa Skit o Oogie Boogie Skit● Lounge Princess Photo Shoot – Taken by: Jonathan Vilches @j.a.vilches “Lounge Princess” Meetup Photoshoot Photoso How the idea happenedo Cosplayers Involved: ▪ Cinderella: Princess Deanna Cosplay▪ Aurora: SchmittydeCali Cosplay▪ Ariel: Lady Loodlz Cosplay▪ Belle: Backsplit Cosplay▪ Jasmine: Keriko Cosplay▪ Mulan: SherrBear▪ Rapunzel: Fairy La Fey▪ Merida: Pastel Colored Cosplay▪ Anna: Noontime Shadows Cosplay▪ Elsa: Rumple and Cat Cosplay▪ Moana: Charming Darling▪ Vanellope: Clown Girl Cosplay● Segment: News/Announcements “The Newsies Banner”○ Disney has complete control over Hulu now.○ Live Action Aladdin comes out this Weekend!● Segment: weekly top 4 (secret from each other)”Let’s get down to business”○ Top 4 Disney Dark Moments: 1 - Pinocchio - pleasure island “jack asses” 2 - The Hunchback of Notre Dame - Hellfire/Frollo at the Beginning 3 - Snow White - All the Dark things 4 - Fantasia - Night on Bald Mountain “Chernabog”Next Week: New Live Action Aladdin Top 4: Disney/Pixar Shorts Contact info: Social Media: Facebook: Faith Trust and Pixie Dust - Podcast Email: 1stgeek411@gmail.com Twitter: @FTPD_PodcastPersonal Twitters: @Sparkle_Fists @SpilledXWater @deanna790Check us out on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, and Spotify!!!

Some samples of his work can be seen on Disney's 2000 DVD of this movie.-This movie is notable for being the first full-length Disney animated movie to incorporate computer graphics imagery (CGI) in its animation. The CGI was utilized for a lot of the special effects, which included the bubbles, a boat, a floating orb of light, the Cauldron, the realistic flames were seen near the end of the movie, and the boat that Taran and his friends used to escape the castle-The production of this movie can be traced back to 1971 when Walt Disney Pictures purchased the screen rights to Lloyd Alexander's "The Chronicles of Prydain." This movie took over twelve years to make, five years of actual production, and cost over twenty-five million dollars. Over one thousand different hues and colors were used, and thirty-four miles of film stock was utilized.-Ralph Bakshi was approached to be involved with this movie in 1979 after the success of his fantasy film Wizards (1977), and his animated adaptation of The Lord of the Rings (1978). He turned it down, believing his style is far too mature for a Disney movie for family entertainment.-Various members of Disney's "Nine Old Men," as well as Don Bluth, took stabs at making this movie during the 1970s.-According to Producer Joe Hale, "When (Jeffrey) Katzenberg first screened the film, he told us to cut it by ten minutes. Roy (Disney) and I got together and found some scenes we could get rid of, that didn't affect the story that much." When they ran it again for Jeffrey Katzenberg, and the film finished, he asked Roy Edward Disney, "Is that ten minutes?" When Disney replied, "No, it was only around six minutes." Katzenberg stated, "I said ten minutes!" Hale continued, "Eventually he cut out about twelve minutes, which really hurt the picture."-Four months before the film's release, The Samuel Goldwyn Company had released The Care Bears Movie (1985) which was made by the much smaller company Nelvana. It only cost $2 million but made $23 million at the box office. By contrast, The Black Cauldron cost $44 million but only made $21.3 million. This alarmed many Disney animators and raised questions about the future of the department. Discuss these movies and more on our Facebook page.

In the history of Walt Disney Pictures, few films have as well-known a reputation as 1985's The Black Cauldron. Unfortunately, The Black Cauldron has a...well, black mark on its record; it's known as one of the biggest flops for the studio and the animation department's lowest point. But is The Black Cauldron as bad as its reputation? On the latest episode of Mousterpiece Cinema, Josh and co-host Michael Ryan dig deep into this film's history, talking about the source material by Lloyd Alexander, the score, the characters, and a whole lot of sacrifice. Is the Horned King the best Disney villain? Is the music a carbon copy of a certain 80s-era comedy classic? And what exactly is that pesky character Gurgi? Find out the answers on the new Mousterpiece Cinema!
