Tomorrowland Ruined My Life And Dreams

The Latter Day Autist

I feel that Moana has the same kind of moral as Tomorrowland - about the spirit of discovery that humanity seems to have lost. In particular, I feel like the island is Earth and beyond the reef is outer space. Like, Mars or whatever.

William McCarthy

You’re very talented. I could listen to you talk for days and have. Might there be an Epic Universe video in the pipeline?

Garret Watts

Another great video!! Although I still have a soft spot for it, I agree with your reasons about the movie, and your experience at theme parks and rides helps to make some of these points more interesting. My only disagreement was about Tron: Legacy. I really like that movie.

Jenny Nicholson

I like it a lot too! But I'd never call it a "good movie." I said in the youtube comments that Tron, like Avatar, is basically just an aesthetic movie with a pretty paper-thin plot. I really want to go on that light cycle ride in Shanghai

You know what I think would be amazing? You doing a video on Spaceballs and reviewing it like a Star Wars movie :D

Garret Watts

That's true, the plot was never much. I've never seen Avatar, but it definitely seems the same way. Also, YES!!! I've seen a few ride-throughs, and the Light-Cycle Power Run looks so fun!

Whimsy & Artifice

Dude, I agree about the mis-casting of the Casey actress... and you hit the nail on the head with the first ten minutes being A Different Movie. It's so jarring... I enjoyed watching the movie, and I enjoyed the movie's lofty goals... but agree that the execution was overall a mess. Also PREACH about the pirates phenomenon.

Love the new video. I too was really disappointed in Tomorrowland and Brad Bird never usually disappoints but I walked out of the movie really really down which never usually happen to the Disney movie. As a side note what is your favorite Park ride. Mine is the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World although I really want to go to Paris and see there version

This is my favorite video so far, it really shows your film analysis chops

I recently subscribed to STARZ (for Black Sails) and there in the 'Featured' panel was TomorrowLand. "Could it have been as disappointing as I remember?" I asked myself. "Maybe it was pretty good and I was just expecting too much at the time." Nope...it was bad. AND a let down. And then, not three days later, I chance across your YouTube video. "It's like she is saying all the things I was feeling!" Seriously, awesome job. And so many more great videos. Keep it up.
