dipika VaghelaPublished 14 days ago in GeeksThe Menu
The Menu was truly one of my most anticipated films of 2022, and then we didn’t get to go see it in theaters. So though I was disappointed that I had to watch it on HBO Max I am glad that I finally got to see it. The trailer depicted what seemed to be a satire with the message of “eat the rich” a theme that made it a must watch for us. After watching the film, it was definitely a satire, just not truly the “eat the rich” kind, more like eat the overly intellectual. Which is part of the reason watching people on the internet analyze it to death is hilarious. There really wasn't that much to analyze and that's what I appreciated most about it, it was very straight forward.

Alex Mell-TaylorPublished 21 days ago in GeeksAnimation - not just for kids
For ages, the stubborn statement that anything that is drawn (and by extension, animated) is for children. Even after titans like The Simpsons or South Park made their way into pop culture, the idea remained: animation was a somehow lesser medium for storytelling than live action. Even in this day and age, creators like Guillermo del Toro (who has a few animated passion projects himself, such as The Tales of Arcadia or the umpteenth new Pinocchio movie this year) spoke up against the discrimination of animation as a medium. And while del Toro's animated movies and series aren't neccesarelly ones I'd categorize as "adult animation", the fact remains: animation still has a long way to go.
