This week kicks off Star Wars Month, and your favorite hosts are diving deep into the life and career of Dave Filoni, the current President and Chief Creative Officer of Lucasfilm. The most pivotal moment discussed is how Filoni originally got hired by George Lucas in 2005: instead of just asking about animation skills, Lucas challenged him on the themes of "The Phantom Menace," specifically the "Duel of the Fates." Ashley praises Filoni for his dedication to continuity, noting that his projects rarely have the plot holes or contradictions that plague other parts of the franchise.

This week the trio wraps up their "Books to Media" series by discussing the third Chronicles of Narnia installment: "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader." They once again compare the episodic nature of the book to the continuous quest of the movie, noting that Dragon Eustace is a big improvement for the character. And they get much amusement at the movie changing the goal from finding "lost lords" to gathering "swords."

In this exciting crossover event, the teams from You Can’t Kill the Boogeyman, the Pixie Dust Twins Podcast Featuring Dan, and Robby Reviews... sit down for a chat with the legendary horror icon Danielle Harris. You'll hear her discuss the transition from "Halloween 4" to "Halloween 5" along with surprising behind-the-scenes stories from her time as a child on set (including the logistics of being lowered into a laundry chute with real knives!). Plus, she shares insights on con etiquette and her experiences meeting fans at events like Spooky Empire. And, when asked which horror universe she’d choose to surv...

Get ready Pixie Dusters because this week your favorite hosts dive into the second installment of the Narnia series, "Prince Caspian!" Prince Caspian is aged up in the movie from an early teen to a young adult and while this changed the dynamic with Peter, Ashley certainly isn't complaining because he's played by the "lovely" Ben Barnes. The group notes that the book is slower and more focused on faith, strategy, and "elongated waiting". The movie, meanwhile, amps up the action with darker tones and a massive castle raid that wasn't in the original text.

Welcome back, Pixie Dusters! This week, your favorite hosts are leaving the Greek Gods behind and heading to a new mystical world with "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." In this case, both the book and movie are well done, with film changes only adding to the story rather than ruining the source material. Also, Tilda Swinton’s performance as the White Witch is genuinely "chilling" and the perfect casting!

Welcome back, Pixie Dusters! This week your favorite hosts wrap up their "Books to Media" month by diving into "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters." The story is a modern-day take on "The Odyssey," featuring many of the same monsters and a similar journey. Ashley has a LOT of feelings about the movie (and if you love the books, you probably agree!). The Disney+ series continues to be a much more faithful adaptation, thankfully.

In this episode, your favorite hosts are wrapping up the final week of Marvel March. The trio discusses "Captain America: Brave New World," which they note is Sam Wilson's first solo film since officially taking on the mantle of Captain America. Overall, this film is not a bad entry into the MCU (despite what some reviews indicated). Harrison Ford is always a welcome addition to any film, and he worked well with Anthony Mackie.

Welcome back, Pixie Dusters! Today's episode is all about the first episode of the Marvel series "Ironheart.” The show follows Riri Williams, a 19 year old MIT student who first appeared in "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever."

In this episode of the Pixie Dust Twins podcast, your favorite hosts discuss the premiere of the new series "Daredevil: Born Again." Overall, everyone praises the show for portraying a more vulnerable, broken side of a superhero, comparing it to other modern interpretations that move away from the purely stoic hero archetype.

In this episode, Sammi, Ashley, and Dan, dive into a mix of Disney news and kick off Marvel March. There's a spirited venting session about "unruly" behavior at Magic Kingdom, featuring a wild story about a parent actually throwing their baby at Mickey Mouse just to get a quick photo. For the main feature, the group reviews the Thunderbolts movie. Despite initial skepticism from Dan and Ashley about the "ragtag group of losers" trope, they both end up loving it—largely thanks to the emotional depth brought by the character Bob.

On today's episode of the podcast, your favorite hosts discuss the direct to video "Mulan II." Dan makes his feelings about the topic very clear with an abrupt exit (check out the first ten minutes of the episode). This sequel has several returning fan favorite characters, though there is debate about how "in-character" they are acting.

In this episode, hosts Sammi, Ashley, and Dan, dive into a lively discussion about Disney updates and the world of direct-to-video sequels. Today's topic: "The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea" and "Ariel's Beginning." They praise Jodie Benson for her continued devotion to voicing Ariel, but, unfortunately, none of the songs are particularly memorable when compared to the original. Plus, a fun "deep dive" into the film's geography leads to a debate over whether the story takes place in Denmark, Italy, or the Caribbean, especially given the presence of ice in the sequel.

In this episode, your favorite hosts dive into the 1997 Disney direct-to-video sequel, "Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas" and "Belle’s Magical World.” One of the true highlights of the Christmas movie is the return of the original voice cast, plus Tim Curry joins as the story's antagonist (of course). Also, the group gets into a hilarious and slightly chaotic discussion about the Beast being a "morally gray" character and the specific "fandoms" that might find him particularly appealing.

Get ready for a magical—and slightly kooky—trip down memory lane! In this episode, your favorite hosts kick off their "straight-to-VHS princess editions" month. First up: Cinderella! "Cinderella II: Dreams Come True (2002)" is best described as "Disney PBS;" this anthology film features three short stories: Cinderella learning to be herself in the palace, Gus the mouse trying to be brave, and the "weirdly interesting" story of Anastasia falling in love. And "Cinderella III: A Twist in Time" is the installment where the Prince finally gets some actual dialogue and a personality.

The team breaks down the "Disney-fied" elegance of the private Club 33, from its insane $30,000+ annual dues to a dress code so strict it would make a Gossip Girl character sweat.

This week, the Pixie Dust Twins plus Dan dive into the Disney Vacation Club (DVC)! Ashley calls the DVC the "second tier" of the Disney hierarchy. We break down the complicated world of banking and borrowing points, the strategy behind picking a "home base" resort, and why Ashley’s "Welcome Home" greeting at the park gates makes her melt every time. Plus, we compare the freebies (magnets vs. water bottles! Are you kidding me???) and share our recent "Pixie Dust Picks," featuring "Stranger Things," book recommendations, and an animated classic.

Join the duo as they rave about Taylor's "bossness" and creativity during the pandemic, when she created the entire album and filmed this acoustic concert documentary. Plus, they discuss the cozy, folk-inspired, yet potentially "slasher movie" setting of the historic Long Pond studio, the big reveal of the mystery Folklore co-writer, William Bowery, and, of course, break down some of the music! Next week, it's time for a look at all the Eras!

This week, Ashley and Sammi dive headfirst into the Marvel series, "Agatha All Along," and they are calling it now: this is the best Marvel show yet! It's perfect for setting the spooky mood this Halloween season. They are breaking down the first two episodes, praising the opening as an on-brand segue from the events of "WandaVision."

Ashley and Sammi discuss the unsettling nature of Rio Vidal, whose revenge-fueled...

Today, Ashley and Sammi are doing a deep dive into the recent, and much debated, transformation of Epcot. After years of construction walls, the park has a fresh, new look, but is it a success or a classic case of over-promise and under-deliver? Sammi is all for the new vibes at night, especially with World Celebration all lit up. The new gardens and lighting create a beautiful, modern aesthetic that feels perfect for evening strolls. But by day, does it feel… a little empty? And is the new CommuniCore Hall living up to its potential? With the recent updates fe...

The wild is getting wilder at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! This week, Ashley and Sammi dive into the park’s big updates, and even Ashley can’t hide her excitement (and we all know that’s saying something). From a brand new Indiana Jones adventure to an Encanto attraction full of magical casita vibes, the park is leveling up in a big way. But there are some negatives, like what in the world is happening to Harambe Market?!

Ashley couldn't even finish it after the Scene-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named. This season just feels disjointed and even Angelus wasn't the same. There are some highlights (Episode 6 "Spin the Bottle," Andy Hallett is now a series regular, and Faith is back, as examples) but overall it's best to just put this season in the past and get ready to move on to...Wolfram & Hart?
