The Grinch Comes Out



How the Grinch stole Christmas is a holiday classic that has played annually on millions of television screens around the world since 1966. Original a children's book created from the imagination of Dr. Seuss in 1957, this story tells the tale of an outsider from mass society that is different and hated for being true to himself. Dr. Seuss was known for putting social issues into his stories and after a recent viewing of the 1966 animated movie, I have come to believe that The Grinch was saying a lot more about the oppressed Gay Culture of the 1950's then people knew. Could it be that Grinch was really Gay?

The Good Dinosaur Review



The Good Dinosaur is the second Pixar movie to be released in 2015 and the 16th in the company's history.

Although the story isn't original, what sets The Good Dinosaur above the others is the visual animation. It is breathtaking. Here are my thoughts about Pixar/Disney's latest film to stump onto the big screen.
