We watched Moana 2 in theaters and are here to give our thoughts about it. And do we have THOUGHTSMoana 2 was originally written as a series and was changed to a theatrical release partway through production. In our opinion, you can tell that it was a series converted to a movie. While the artistry and the screenplay really conveyed a beautiful story of finding and building community, there was a lot that fell flat in this for us. All of our thoughts, commentary, and complaints are in this episode.Mix yourself a Motunui Sunset and sail off into the unknown with us.

Cinderella is a princess known for her kindness and grace. From balancing trays on her head while walking up stairs and collecting laundry to the kindness she shows even to the smallest creatures, we all know and love it. Something that is less realized is the subtle sass she gives when necessary. In this episode with special guest Virginia from Where I Long to Be Podcast, we discuss the range that she has, as well as where the Prince was, and also Piff rants about how Cindy is one of the princesses who is most often (and WRONGLY) talked badly about.

This is a long one, so pour yourself a Glass Slipper Martini and tuck in for all of our shenanigans.Follow Virginia Here:Websitehttps://whereilongtobepodcast.comApple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/where-i-long-to-be-a-magical-trip-report-podcast/id1680425867Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/6KNmfzYjZvVHWgIJc1j72G?si=DBKHWqW9QxCyL0YJ0YhSuwAnd don't forget to follow us anywhere @pixietwistpod

This week, we are joined by our friend Jill to chat all things Moana, including the constant death talk and the fact that Common Sense Media lists that her midriff is showing as a potential concern. Millennials had Jasmine and Gen Z has Moana.

Other topics include the voice actor who plays Hei Hei, the Little Mermaid (I swear it makes sense), and if that vision was really happening or not.

On this episode, we sit down with Austin from "The Magic of Mayhem" to discuss the myth, the legend, the Disney animated movie: Hercules! Throughout this episode, we discuss our collective love for this movie, how long Hercules was really training, and all of Hades terrible plans. From the very beginning, Hades plans are really sus, and they do not get better, he does not improve.

This is our Home Alone episode! We discuss everything that went wrong for Kevin to be left alone, which burglar we would rather be, and the logistics of getting back to Chicago from Paris.

Pour yourself a cocktail that will leave you feeling like you were hit in the face with an iron the next morning, and join us for this festive movie!

To perfectly sandwich the Halloween to Christmas transition, we brought out friend Jill on to talk about her favorite movie of all time, The Nightmare Before Christmas. And while Sav and Jill both are obsessed with this movie, Piff isn't the biggest fan. We discuss different aspects that we love (and hate), the artistry behind the claymation, and the one thing that we can all agree on, that Jack and Sally's "love story" does not exist in this film.

Come along for the chaos of deciphering the holiday doors with a "What's This" martini on this nostalgic journey.

In this episode, we are joined by one of Piff's oldest friends and fellow Disney lover, Tori to discuss one of her childhood favorites, A Goofy Movie. This was the first time Piff had seen it and the list of things that surprised her was extensive, and included the fact that it is a musical, the fact that Max isn't Powerline, and the fact that the plot wasn't about Max becoming a famous rockstar.

We paired this chaos with a Powerline cocktail courtesy of the blog Reel Fancy Dinners. So grab a glass and join us as we go on a road trip across the country.

Today, we are sitting down with Cedric Gegel, an actor, writer, director, and my childhood best friend’s little brother to discuss, what he calls “A Perfect Film”, The Lion King. This year also celebrates 30 years since the movie's release, which felt perfect for our 30th episode. From dynamic cinematic choices to the utter lack of cheetahs in this movie to which animals Cedric could not beat in a fight (spoiler: it’s most of them), this episode has it all.

Pour yourself a pineapple cocktail, say Hakuna Matata, and join us on this journey!
