835 · "In or Out?" - Trilogies, Overlays, Lounges, Live-Action, Leadership & More!Are you In or Out? Is the Indiana Jones trilogy really Disney's best? Should Tower of Terror get a Halloween overlay? And is Josh D'Amaro the future CEO of Disney?That is just the beginning! This week, we dive into bold opinions and big questions about the parks, movies, cruise line, lounges, and leadership. From the Country Bear update to adult-only experiences, EPCOT's GEO 82, live-action remakes, the Grand Floridian's new lobby bar and much more... nothing is off the table.You might agree. You might not. That's the fun of it! So… are YOU in or out?
If you watched the janky oddity that is the 2017 Death Note movie or the Scarlet Johansson Ghost in the Shell that also came out in 2017 (what a tough year) this is the episode for you! Anime is massive and yet a successful live action adaptation of one that's as good as the source material seems harder to find than the one piece treasure (With One Piece being the exception that breaks the rule) . Jake explains why this is and we all analyze some of the attempts including Cowboy Bebop, the insanity that is the Wachowski's Speed Racer, and yes even Dragon Ball Evolution because we love entertaining you more than we respect ourselves.Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

Today Ben dives into the Viking World of Berk to discuss the Live Action How to Train Your Dragon! Live-action remakes don't exactly have the best track record—some hit, most miss, and many leave us wondering… why even bother? But somehow, How to Train Your Dragon pulls off the near-impossible: staying almost exactly the same as the original and being completely worth it. In today's video, we're breaking down why this remake works where others—like The Lion King, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast—struggled. From honoring the animation, to understanding live-action as its own format, to the return of Gerard Butler in bear cape glory... this movie might've just set a new standard.

In this solo episode of Fine Tooning, Jim Hill covers the latest from the animation and box office world while Drew Taylor wraps up his trip to Annecy and Disneyland Paris. This week's highlights include: Live-action How to Train Your Dragon opens to $197M globally, including a $83M domestic debut that surpasses every previous entry in the franchise. Disney's Lilo & Stitch nears the billion-dollar mark, with over $858M earned just four weeks after release. Pixar's Elio faces a soft box office forecast, but Jim urges caution against writing it off before opening weekend. Peter Sohn tapped to direct Incredibles 3, with a screenplay by Brad Bird and expectations riding high after Elemental's surprise turnaround. Jim interviews Matt West, director of the 30th Anniversary Tour of Beauty and the Beast: The Broadway Musical, and shares the story of how the animated film came together after a theme park pre-show opened doors for new talent. From billion-dollar contenders to Broadway anniversaries and surprise animation industry milestones, it's a jam-packed episode filled with insight, stories, and a little history.
