The songs aren't great (aside from I See the Lights), but for me the rest of the movie is so engaging that you don't really miss having four or five great songs like you have with some of the best Disney films.

The sidekicks were just one of the absolute worst parts of the post Lion King movies for me. God, there have been some awful ones. The popularity of the Genie seemed to encourage Disney to add a wise cracking sidekick voiced by a celebrity to every fricken movie.
I dislike all of those. The problems I have with a lot of the post Lion King movies are too many sassy sidekicks and pop culture references and the glaring inaccuracies regarding historical facts (or myths in terms of Hercules - I was very interested in Greek myths as a kid so that one really annoyed me). Probably the…
Agreed. I like to pretend that Tangled and Princess and Frog (which I have a soft spot for) followed straight on from The Lion King, and that most of the movies in between don't actually exist.
Well it seems that way considering how the group - especially Troy - treats him.
I'm still bemused by the amount of hand-wringing and woe in that review and from TVDW in the weeks leading up to it. It really wasn't that bad.
I actually liked this. Obviously it's not in the same league as the great episodes of Community, but it was enjoyable.

Of course. Independent reevaluation of all those episodes is strongly encouraged.
That calls for a ranking of episodes where Joel McHale's chest features prominantly:
The British do suits best. Nothing better than an arrogant but magnificent bastard in a well tailored British-style suit.
I like to alternate between an English accent and a South African one when out carousing. With the first I saw "cheers" a lot and with the second I like to throw in as many words with long "a" sounds as possible - I parked the car in the dark car park.
Pretty much every famous Australian actor at one time had a role on either Neighbours or Home and Away. Two more nominees/winners from H&A in Heath Ledger and Naomi Watts.
Boo is also my favourite Bunhead.
Not really. I believe the child mortality rate was still relatively high at that point, so they're not really out of the woods until the baby grows up and has his own kids, or Mary manages to go 3 for 3 and hook the next distant cousin in the line of succession.
Five years is a bit generous. Accent aside, he just isn't handsome enough or, alternatively, ruggedly appealing enough to be a leading man.
I think what we saw was Oliver turning on the voice distorter thingy, not a bug.
I actually like seeing the contrast between whiny, useless Oliver and Arrow Oliver. It brings it home how much he's had to grow up and toughen up in the five years on the island. Plus, that stupid girly wig they put on him makes me giggle every time.
Surprisingly, they didn't take the opportunity to slip in a Community notification in the Downton Abbey review when the word "community" was mentioned several times. Fire that intern!
It doesn't have to stay in the field - anything hit over the fence on the full is a six (maximum runs).
