Hey Everyone!
On today’s episode of Boardwalk Talk, we review the movies picked by the viewers on our Viewers Choice Twitter Poll! From time to time, we ask our fans on Twitter to vote for the movie they want to see us review on the next show. If you want to vote in the next poll, be sure to follow @BoardwalkTimes for more information!
First, we cover the 1949 Disney classic Ichabod and Mr. Toad. Though many may not know of this deeper cut, it remains one of the best Halloween (and kind of Christmas?) films in the Disney catalog. If you haven’t seen the cinematic package, or just have a soft spot for Bing Crosby (seriously), check it out!
Then, we spend a bit of time discussing the Disney Channel Original Movie Phantom of the Megaplex. Halloween horror can be fun, but sometimes it’s nice to experience the charm of early Disney Channel films. Compared to the other DCOMs we discussed, this is a wonderfully restrained children’s film that captures the culture of the time, experiences inherent to cinema, and qualities of early 2000s television entertainment. It’s a lot of fun!
If either of these films interests you, they’re available on Disney+ under the Halloween subsection.
