093: Elemental: Opposites Attract

#093. ELEMENTAL (2023) REVIEW

Airdate: September 6, 2023

Elemental’s trailer states “elements don’t mix.” But the film shows that air, water and earth blend just fine. Why is fire on the outskirts looking in? Does the film have a classic Pixar/Disney moral to the story that lands or falls flat? Forever Fangirls saw the film in theaters, but it launches on Disney+ September 2023.

#091. HAUNTED MANSION (2023) REVIEW

Airdate: June 28, 2023

Haunted Mansion comes to the big screen… again. Does it scare up enough nostalgia from the parks and a story that made it worth seeing? July seemed like an odd release date, as we expected something closer to Halloween. Forever Fangirls hit the theaters (instead of doom buggies) to see what the ghostly appeal of the film has.
