Spellbound on Netflix promised magic, but did it deliver? With a talented cast and music by Alan Menken, this animated princess musical falls short of the Disney magic it’s chasing. From its lackluster story to uninspired animation, here’s why Spellbound misses the mark.

Dragon Ball Super: Broly - Reaction/Review, and some thoughts about Dragonball’s future.

Saw Broly. I hadn’t seen it subbed beforehand like I had for most of Dragon Ball Super, so it was a fresh experience coming in, and I very much liked it. Visually it’s a hell of an experience, with some of the best fight animation the series has had since the Z days (even given that, memes and poor reputation aside, Super’s animation had some very good moments as it went on). The story isn’t Shakespeare, but you’re not going to Broly for Shakespeare, you’re going to see action packed fight scenes, action packed Saiyan worldbuilding, and action packed screaming while powering up. Action! It’s a movie that knows what it’s setting out to do, and for damn sure makes sure it does it well. And for that, I’d definitely recommend it. I will say this, as well: it confirms (or at least corroborates) a lot of what I've been suspecting about how Dragonball is going to be handled going forward. The plot, without much getting into spoilers (there’s still going to be a couple, so be warned), isn’t self contained in the way the previous movies have been. It’s very much a product of what came before, and is meant to build up what was coming after. But at the same time, it’s very casual and incidental about it. One of my primary reactions to Freeza - for example - is that his role in the plot is very much something I could imagine seeing done with a Western supervillain: something strange comes his way, and he uses it to shore up his latest scheme against those pesky Saiyans, and retreats to continue stewing until he comes up with an even better scheme in the end.

Freeza, in an unrelated note, is the best part of the movie. I love a good villain, and I love the kind of villain relationship I’m about to talk at length about below, and he’s both deplorable, amazing and hilarious to watch - as is his inevitable comeuppance.

Over the course of Dragonball Super, Freeza has more and more been reforged into what is now absolutely Goku’s archenemy figure. He was the most personal threat (arguably) that the heroes faced in the past, but a lot of those extra traits: the constant and important role in the setting, the fierce and recurring rivalry between himself and Goku, the way he factors into major events in the narrative and develops along an interesting and very personal relationship with his enemies... that’s all things that were emphasized more and more through Super’s run, and which is fully on display here. He literally just throws Broly at our heroes because he can, and doesn’t want to pass up the opportunity to be the villain when it’s on his doorstep. All this sets up for a role that is meant to persist, which I’ll get to more in a moment.

Same with Broly. In fact, even more linked to my larger thoughts with Broly: this wasn’t just an hour and a half long fight against a simple movie musclehead. This was a character introduction. We get his backstory, we get a circle of characters who are linked to him, and more importantly, we’re slowly built up an area of the universe that is specifically Broly centered, which is related to but inherently linked to Freeza’s circle, and which can easily be approached by the heroes but doesn’t have to be. He’s out there in how own little sub-world, to be used if the story needs him to be.

That’s not just setting up a fight. That’s branching out the universe in a way that Dragonball has never really been interested in before. Everything has always been very centered around Goku’s current adventures, previously. Characters that stick around become part of Goku’s crew and continue a dynamic with him. Characters that don’t simply cease to be important, and they certainly don’t persist as major/minor aspects of the universe, with hints to be important later. But since Super, that’s been changing.

Those plot developments, along with the news last year that Toei is making an entire division dedicated only to Dragonball, makes me suspect that the approach towards Dragonball as a series is changing. A lot of manga and anime are written with the preparation for conclusion - not necessarily intended to end, but expecting to build up to a conclusion at some point. But with Dragonball, the comparison to American superhero comics is getting more and more apt, I think: we’re looking at a Dragonball that has no intention of stopping, and is now built with the idea of constantly generating more stories and different narratives as needed. This is why we need Freeza out there, not dead. Or why Broly is also out there, not dead and not tied up with Freeza. Why Beerus exists as an everpresent concept, with the story having zero interest in having Goku defeat him any time soon, same with Zeno and the Grand Priest - maybe even the multiverse in general (though most of them have already gone the “our heroes are way stronger than them route). The universe is getting wider, so that the universe can keep going for longer. There are things I semi-expect to see in the future, if my suspicions are correct. More characters like Broly who are introduced but not quite done away with. More characters who, likewise, get their own circles of characters surrounding them who aren’t Goku and their friends, who they have a dynamic with (Freeza, to note, also gets a group like this). More stories dedicated to worldbuilding aspects of the universe in the way this one backstories the Saiyans (a bit Kal-El-esque, but it’s all good) and establishes more about how their world and the Freeza Force work. And maybe, though this is very much a guess, characters who carry their own stories outside of Goku as well (I suspected for a while that Toei might have at some point been trying to set something like that up with Kid Trunks, but that’s a theory for another day).

Either way, it’s clear that we’re going to get more. More and more and more. So get ready, Dragonball fans. The potential is maximum.

Batman Under The Red Hood Animation.

I specifically chose these 3 different pictures to show the design differences between the Cover Art of the film, the Art of the comic and the actual Animation from the Film, to reveal where differences where made.

Brandon Vietti was a storyboard animator and designer for the Film and was responsible for designing the characters and in the end decided to in some ares change designs from the comics to be adapted into film, as he believed he wanted to gain insight as to how the characters had already been done to shape his own view of how the characters should appear; focusing on original designs and, screenplay text and his own notion of how the characters should look he created the designs we see in the film.

I don’t often like how in other shows and comics top heavy characters look visually (Fist Of The North Star for example), however in this animation I really like how the Red Hood is slyly top heavier and in a way makes the character very unique among other characters, as it emphasises his physical strength and desire for power of which he continuously tries to prove he has an abundance of, making the entire film/animation a unique Batman Flick! Also I really like how in this animation the designers focus on prominence, such as the Jokers facial contortions e.g. chin, nose, hair and facial liens, as well as Black Masks skeletal shape and Ra’s Al Ghul’s facial hair, eyes and hair, using segmentation to properly show difference with colour too, making it an amazing attention to detail cartoon focused strongly on lighting and colourways, which solidifies it as one of the greatest Superhero Animated Movies.
