Moana 2
Eh? Why is there an episode about this and why is it really long? a) That's what you're about to find out, and b) welcome to Serious Disness! This little-discussed Disney TV sellotape-sequel actually is something of a landmark moment for us.

The Little Mermaid (2023)
What do you want? To hear our astute analysis of the last of the BIG remakes! What do we offer? Analysis of the last of the BIG remakes! What have you got? You've got your looks!! Your pretty face!!Disney have of course remade The Little Mermaid. You already know that, and you know that the Disness Boys' astute analysis is what you need in order to sort out all your cluttered thoughts about it. We see you, we hear you, and we've got you. Tune in. Why, what's the matter? Why are you looking at me like that? Oh, what, because it's really long? Listen buster, just because it's our longest episode doesn't mean it's our ACTUAL longest episode. Beauty and the Beast was longer, so was Frozen of course, have you all forgotten that so soon? It's just that I got all nervous and broke them up into bits. Not this time! This time, you'll just have to enter the 21st century and listen on a podcast app so it saves your place. You have my permission to listen to this in bursts of twenty, or ten, or even just five minutes. Whenever you go for a wee, set your phone down nearby and listen to however many minutes it takes you to wee. Do this every time and you'll be able to do LOADS of wees before the content is all dried up! Think of that, think how EXCITING a wee will start to be. But then the terror will set in, when you realise the episode has finally ended, and with it, your wees. You'll discover you've become so conditioned by this habit that you can no longer pass urine without hearing our voices. You'll have to start paying us a full-time wage just to be available to send you whatsapp recordings of our voices whenever you need a wazz, otherwise you'll develop a terrible kidney infection, which in the long run would cost more, wouldn't it. Think about it. So really, what you WANT to do, right, is just start paying us that wage now, before you start listening to this episode and it becomes too late. It only makes sense! So cough up!

Wish
What's your Christmas Wish? Was it this film? Tell me exactly how you worded that wish, we need to figure out a few things. This is a hasty Christmas upload (you can tell, because I've not been able to do an amusing cover art this ep) during a bit of technical trouble, so if you spot any errors, any editing gaffs, immediately tell Dave about them, seriously. Do it. Have I missed any swears that mean I need to click explicit content, for instance? TELL ME, christ why don't you ever TELL me

The Big Pile (The Big Pile Trilogy #3, obv)
We've been given all of Disney's films all at once and never have to buy new ones as long as we keep up our subscription fee. So, er... now what? Fancy putting one of them on? No? Oh. Why not? Welcome to the conclusion of the Big Pile Trilogy!

Strange World (The Big Pile Trilogy #2)
So what happened next? Remember I was all enigmatic about the Raya review being the first part of an unwitting trilogy that happen to add up to one big discussion? Well it was, and this is the second bit, and the third bit is coming VERY soon. Marked !explicit content" because I can't remember if we say any rudies or not

Raya and the Last Dragon (The Big Pile Trilogy #1)
Something is happening, and we've noticed it. We noticed it slowly, over the course of a couple of years. We're going to tell you about it, over three episodes about different things that all add up to one big thing. First, we're going back to a live stream that we broadcast during March of 2021, when Disney brought out a film that caused all sorts of kerfuffle, and then just sort of disappeared from people's memories. Next, we've recorded two new episodes for you, about what happened in the following two years. Apart from Encanto, which we did a whole episode about in between, and already released. Okay? Look, it'll be fine, we've made it so it's fine. We're good at this. Just click it and we can get started.

Mulan
HELLO AGAIN! Cor have you seen the remake of Mulan? Maybe don't do that! Maybe listen to this first? Yeah, we're back and we're back on the remakes, oh rapture! Finally, we've found a film [redacted] than Beauty and the Beast. I've redacted a word there, to create a sense of mystery over whether or not we enjoyed Mulan. This is a podcast episode made out of a stream we did on... youtube? Twitch? One of those, in the year 2020. If you missed it then, here it is now, and if you saw it then, that will not have any effect on whether or not it is here now, which it is.

Encanto
There's a new WDAS out*, and just as we were starting to lose faith that those would be good, a big banger landed in our laps and banged off. * They're called that because those are the keys the animators use to move the people about.

Frivolous Disness - Honey We F~@%ed Up
Honey, We Discussed A good film, an ok film, and a very very terrible film that make up something of a trilogy, starting with a film that was once a mega-hit, but isn't much talked about any more. (This is one of our 2020 livestreams, finally uploaded as an episode.)

Beauty and the Beast (2017) part 2

It's finally here, the remainder of our big birthday bumper Beauty and the (DOOO dee doop doop dooo do deedooo doop dooo doop dooo dee doo) Beast bonanza blowout special! Our sleeves are rolled up, we're getting hungry, and it's time to really try and figure out what happened here??

This was recorded in the precovidian, and makes constant reference to René Auberjonois as a man who is alive. Like so much since 2019, this is no longer the case, but we can pretend, can't we? Oh, and also, Dave spoils something in Downton Abbey. Sorry about that, but it's a really bad and stupid thing that happens.

The Jungle Book (2016)
Jon Favreau tries his hand at photorealistic talking animals - but will he use that skill again? Returning to our chronological watch-through of Disney remakes, we find a film that stands out from all the others. And does a big roar. On a big rock.

Frivolous Disness - Boogedyboogedyboogedy

Disney+ is here, and we discuss what that means for our VHS collection. Please don't pirate this episode just because everyone's going to post spoilers.

Plus! Brightside Euan is back, and he's watched The Little Mermaid now. He says it's the same as Ratatouille, and then weirdly manages to prove it.

Frivolous Disness - Mickey Biccies

Today, Jehan tells us about the time he pestered Jafar and went up Aladdin's Enchanted Passage at Eurodisney. Plus! The first part of a new segment in which Brightside Euan, a man who hasn't seen a Disney Renaissance film, is pressured into watching one.

(I've marked this one "Explicit", but only because we say the French word "coque" three times while searching for allergens on a tin of French biscuits.)

Cinderella (2015)

Returning to the chronological releases, 2015's Cinderella was the first of the remakes to be an actual REMAKE. But was it good? We both sort-of disagree, and sort-of have an argument about it. Drama!* in the new Serious Disness!*(not really)
