9(2009) 15th Anniversary

My hype for this movie was through the roof. On top of it already looking unique compared to other movies coming out at the time, I saw it was produced by Tim Burton, who I was obsessed with growing up. I was 12 and my best friend, Kal, and I went to see it after school on opening day. It was also the first time I went to the movies without an adult, which my Parents were hesitant about before agreeing to let me see it. Kal and I walked out really liking it, but I became obsessed with it. I loved the characters, voice acting, backstory, visual designs, and world building.

Over the years, I’ve heard some complaints, like the plot being too simple and having little to no character depth, but I think because I saw it at the right time, I was able to fill in those blanks and just appreciated the things it did right. While now, its kind of quaint, I do remember feeling it was more mature and creepy and I liked it. I categorized it under gateway horror, as around the same time, I started delving more into classic horror and monster movies. It’s not necessarily aimed at mature adults, it’s aimed at the kids who are ready to see something a little bit more scary. That’s why the plot is easy to follow and the visuals and tone are intense. Director Shane Acker has talked about making more dark animated movies like this, but nothing’s happened. I know he’s still around working on visual effects for movies and making shorts, but I’d really love to see another feature from him. Hard to believe it’s been 15 years, but It’s still nice to see the 9 fandom occasionally pop up and remind me of simpler times.

An Almost Christmas Story (2024) review

Forget Red One, THIS is the kind of holiday season nonsense we seek to enjoy this time of year! 

Plot: Moon, a curious young owl, finds herself trapped in a Christmas tree destined for Rockefeller Plaza in New York City. Trying to escape the city, Moon befriends a lost little girl named Luna. Together, they embark on an adventure.

Amongst Disney+’s endless library of Marvel and Star Wars cash-grabbing content there are rare occurrences when little charming projects such as this come to fruition, and more so allow for certain filmmakers you’d never think to team up make something special. In this case we have Alfonso Cuarón and David Lowery co-producing and writing this delightful little short that perfectly embodies the magic of the holiday season. It’s a simple premise about friendship, courage and the power of home, however told in such a heartwarming way, with impressive animation that stylistically resembles those cardboard pop-ups you get on certain fancy Christmas cards, as well as am engaging voice cast.

The aforementioned animation is particularly wonderful, as at first I was fooled into thinking it was stop-motion, however it is in fact CG. Which is surprising as the level of detail and texture of the character designs looks very photo real as if they were real handmade models. The little owl’s facial layers are particularly top notch!

Truly there isn’t much more to say here other than this is a lovely 20 minutes to spend, with fun folk songs sung by John C. Reilly (who also narrates), and in fact reminded me of how Reilly is genuinely a solid singer. Then again, how can we forget that John C. Reilly is also the man, the myth, the legend Dewey Cox, and he can walk hard! Anyway, do check out An Almost Christmas Story and let it fill you up with cuteness and the fuzzies. I am just going to bypass the fact though that again this type of content being released in November rather than December seems a tad early seeing as we’re still over a month away from Christmas Day. But I shall not be a Scrooge this time around and simply enjoy this little tiny owl do it’s owly thang.

Overall score: 7/10

So uh… this post I made 2 years ago has almost 100 notes and is still getting them which is pretty cool….. but it sucks so I redrew it. This time the characters are directly from the movie rather than a mix of the broadway revival and the movie. (I’m sorry Joel Grey I love you)
