Turkey Day

 Why?

I wanted to watch this one before Thanksgiving but sometimes things just don't appear in schedules. I remembered it the day after Thanksgiving and decided to give it a watch.

What in the world?

The mascot of Thanksgiving becomes mind controlled by the Count Dracula. He is sent back in time so that Thanksgiving will be gone forever or something.

Personal thoughts

I just don't even know what to say about Wownow movies at this point. I love to hate them and I love to watch them at the same time. I couldn't tell if this movie was for children or for smart adults. The movie literally threw in words that I had never heard of before. I hated being introduced to new and old characters alike with the introduction of the most terrifying turkey I have ever seen (the above picture does not do the character enough horrible justice). 

Score

I have to give this movie a 2 out of 10. As always, the animation was as great as it could be. It had its moments and I respect that from this movie. Remember, Wownow is not for the faint of heart so if you want to watch this movie then you have been warned.

Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star

 

Why?

It's that time of the year where Christmas reigns supreme. As a new tradition, Netflix series have become a holiday staple for me and my family. When we heard there was a 3rd Princess Switch, we knew we had to watch it. 

What in the world?

Vanessa Hudgens teams up with Vanessa Hudgens, Vanessa Hudgens, and some guy named Peter to steal back a religious Christmas tree topper. 

Personal thoughts

Don't watch this movie. It was painfully long and staring at Vanessa Hudgens on a screen for too long possibly did irreparable damage to my brain. Nothing happened in this movie. The bad guy was creepy but he was also possibly the best part of the movie. The whole heist aspect just did not emulate the classic Christmas vibes the other ones had. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 1 out of 10. The green screen nonsense was really the only good part of the movie. The rest of it was boring and predictable but what else was to be expected of romance movies. NOTHING HAPPENED IN THIS MOVIE AND IT WAS 1 HOUR AND 46 MINUTES LONG!!!!!

Love Birds

 

Why?

It's been a while since I have taken a look at Wownow and this movie seemed like the perfect one to dip my toes back into the weird water of the Wownow world. 

What in the world?

Don't let the picture deceive you. This movie is not about these two weird looking birds at all. Instead it is about a hippo who wants to sing a love song for a weird looking newt. It is also about a bird trying to get rid of Valentine's day for reasons completely unrelated to anything that happens in this movie regarding plot. 

Personal thoughts

This movie man. I love when these movies have Little Wings Hot Quills. Don't hate me if that is not his correct name. His songs are one of the best parts of any Wownow movie. The movie description says Cupid but he shows up in the last 10 minutes of the movie. Everything in this movie has no meaning. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 2 out of 10. I do not believe that there was a plot until it was forced in at the very end. Since it was supposed to be a musical, songs were included in the scoring of this movie. They were all trash except for the part when the bird sang about getting influenza. That was pretty great.

Sherlock Holmes and The Valley of Fear

 

Why?

I was trapped in a room for an unspecified amount of time so I had to try and find something shorter to watch. This movie had a nostalgic look to it so I thought I would watch it. 

What in the world?

An animated rendition of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and the Valley of Fear. In short, a guy turns up dead and they search for the person that committed the crime. 

Personal thoughts

It reminded me of Scooby Doo. The original not any of the remakes that are around today. The movie also had a lot of twists and turns that I was not expecting whether it was because I had never read the book or was just generally surprised at what they could throw out onto the screen. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 7 out of 10. The animation brought me a time when I wasn't alive but everything was a lot simpler than right now. The best part of the movie had to be the secret passage/hideaway. No more spoilers past that because that would ruin the whole scene.

The Legend of Sasquatch

 Why?

Something about the trailer for this movie grabbed my attention. I think it was the way that the dad talked to me. It was very beautiful in ways that you could never have really predicted. 

What in the world?

Two daughters and their dad move to a shed looking building in the middle of a valley. In the short time they are there, the daughters find the Bigfoot community and help them survive.

Personal thoughts

I believe that the animation is terrifying. Other than that, why can the Bigfoot people fly? It's very unsettling to watch but it is also really funny to watch what happens in the movie. The dad talks in a very monotonous voice that tops anything I have ever heard before. The Bigfoot community has never learned English though so they have no dialogue. That just makes it all the better. 

Score

I would have to give this movie a 3 out of 10. The giant pinecones sadly brought it up a point grade. I think as a comparison the pinecone was just as big as my hand. The movie was really funny even though I think that I laughed at all the wrong moments but that's not the point.

Wheely

 

Why?

Just another movie that was found through the power of Amazon prime rabbit holes. 

What in the world?

An ex-racer turned taxi has to save his pretend girlfriend from a "carnapping". Throughout the movie, "hilarious" antics ensue as he tries to get her to be with him. 

Personal thoughts

I believe that this movie was just a sad Cars. The main character was one of the most annoying people I have ever met. He's not even real. I do have to say that some of the cars were cruelly treated. The security car was the best and most confusing character of the whole movie. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 3 out of 10. The movie was actually pretty entertaining for the way that everything was presented. The cars were kind of freaky now that I think back to it.

Barbie: Dreamtopia (Movie)

 

Why?

Taking a break from Wownow is hard. So instead, I had to go down a prime rabbit hole instead or Tubi TV, I don't really remember what the source is.

What in the world?

Barbie allows her sister, Chelsea, to go into lucid fever dreams. The reason for this is too dumb to actually type down for you to read.

Personal thoughts

I believe that this movie is awful. Sure, it has its moments but at the same time it just doesn't really work for me. There were two plots going on at the same time and I personally believe that that was overkill.

Score

This movie gets a 2 out of 10. I know Barbie is supposed to be an icon but this movie just did not exemplify anything of importance. Sadly, Otto did not carry the movie as far as I thought he would. He does bring up a lot of questions that I will not go into.
