OK, Mulan has a lot going for it and it was probably unfair to lump it in there. But I see it as the modern Disney movie that's the most hamstrung by a perceived need to adhere rigidly to a formula: the songs are probably the worst from that era, and the wacky dragon sidekick with Eddie Murphy's voice is not my…
Moby says a lot of things.
Why do so many Newswire headlines in the last year or so begin with a superfluous "And"? Just curious.
My guess is that it's supposed to function as some sort of acknowledgement of the rolling, ever-renewing churn of internet news items, but it's been trotted out so often lately that I figured I take a shot and ask…

So after the doom of Old Valyria, how do they explain what happened to all the dragon eggs?
Yet I feel like Franco has the charisma and good will to get away with his antics, whereas LaBeouf was powerfully punchable even at his peak (which was, what, Constantine? Holes?
That's pretty cool though.
Those letters are life-alteringly great. Thank you very much.
Don't you lose it, now listen to us
Everything's gonna be all right
Take a break, take some time

It's my favorite too, and though I can't second that Metallica thing I'll agree that it does totally rock. Or it moves, maybe that's a better word for it — the songs just pop and swing in a way that still lands today.
