For The First Time In Forever

David Karp, Mark Child, Jony Orta

Three friends talk about every Disney Animated Studios and Pixar Studios film, in chronological order from Snow White to, well...wherever we are now (and many films are first watches ever, hence the title!). Casual, nerdy, and probably a little bit dirty. Grab a beer or a coffee, relax, and enjoy our chat! And, oh yes...there will be spoilers.

    The First (Out)takes

    Just because we are taking a short break doesn't mean we are leaving you high and dry! Moving, family matters and such have been our last month, but we are getting ready to go back into our regular recordings VERY soon. But while you wait, here is something very special: our very first outtakes/bloopers episode! A short episode of pure silliness from the past (almost!) 2 years we've been doing this thing! Real fun and a little raunchy! Think of the outtakes on the DVD menu you watched late at night after the movie. This is essentially our version. So please enjoy and we will see you REAL soon! - Dave, Mark, Jony, and Uncle Mickey

    Film #36: Hercules (1997)

    Bless my soul, the boys are on a roll! And this time, they are in ancient Greece! No, they couldn't get into 70mm The Odyssey (and, believe me, they tried). But they are going to be talking about the classic 1997 film, Hercules! And there is a lot to talk about! Broadway legends, Greek choruses and Phil. Ohh, Phil. What a guy (well, sort of). So join Dave, Mark and Jony as they deep dive with the God's, Titan's and mortals on this episode of For The First Time In Forever!

    Film #18: The Sword In The Stone (1963)

    Merlin's beard, Harry! You're a wizar- oh wait, wait. Sorry, wrong film. But Merlin will be making an appearance in the film on this episode too! And so will Dave, Mark and Jony! Well, not in the film, but...well, you know what I mean! Will Madam Mim, Merlin's arch-nemesis, wreak havoc on all the land? And will this young Wart fellow help save the day? He can't be some sort of King one day, could he? And you know who won't be helping out on this quest? Uncle Mickey. Man, he pops off right out of the gate. Merlin's beard, indeed! But nevertheless, come along with the three on a quest through a deep dive on none other than 1963's The Sword In The Stone (which Dave has, up until now, been referring to as The Sword AND the Stone. Merlin's beard!). There will be wizards and magic and squirrels! THAT is a guarantee! We'll see you on the quest! Logo artwork by Zuxiu Chen
