The Bluth Society

So we just got back from Momocon and you guys … WE GOT TO INTERVIEW DON BLUTH HIMSELF! Listen to Dee’s conversation with him and our discussion on his new book, “Somewhere Out There.”  You can check out Don Bluth’s book here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/somewhere-out-there-my-animated-life-don-bluth/17550317

Holy pandemic, Batman! A new episode! In our final episode of the series, Dee, Carrie and Havana take a trip down memory lane with a review of the 2000 animated sci-fi film, 'Titan A.E.'. Join us as we discuss the film's impact on the animated sci fi genre and its relevance in the pre-9/11 media landscape. We're also excited to have our first guest since the beginning of the pandemic, Alan Tupper, to share his thoughts on the film as we dig into the film's production. Did you know that pre-production development alone cost $30 million?! Wowza. Tune in to the discussion on the animation, voice acting, and the overall story, as we bid farewell to The Bluth Society series.

At last, Carrie, Dee, and Havana watch and review Anastasia! Listen to the hosts rave about the music, character writing, Romanov history, and the writing of this classic.

Learn about framing and shot language this week as Dee, Carrie, and Havana talk about how incorrect cinematography and character design undermines Pebble and this Penguin. Carrie rants about damsels in distress in film and Dee analyzes the operatic angle of this movie. Also, Hubie is a dick.

Making $71,368 in the box office, Troll in Central Park is Bluth’s lowest grossing film to date. This week, Carrie, Dee, and Havana reluctantly watch this train wreck and bounce ideas on how they would re-write the movie. Troll is a testament to what happens when your creative ego gets too big.
