    Rewinding the one that started it all, Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, comparing the original to the remake.

    Snow White (2015) has been under a lot of scrutiny with it's press release, rewrites, and story. Are the critics correct? Or is it that we cannot accept change?

    On this episode, I talk about all these things and more and breaking age old sterotypes about Disney Princesses.

    Rewinding the classic movie "Mighty Joe Young." Even though it was not initially a Disney movie, "Mighty Joe Young" got a Disney remake in 1998. With advancements in special effects and more use of forced perspective, was the movie worthy or a remake? Does better technology make for better movies?

    Let's take a deep dive in to these two movies together on this episode of "Reel Rewind."
