Puss in Boots: The Last Wish If you want to smile and feel jaunty, this is for you

February 23, 2023

As this is my last day in the UK with Rob, our RunPee correspondent over there, and I was excited to see a relaxing, soothing movie with himself and Alice (his cute granddaughter). I was thrilled with Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. After a stream of somewhat disappointing movies over my UK journey (The Fabelmans, […]

Movie Review – The Amazing Maurice

January 10, 2023

It’s the end of the Christmas holidays. My good lady wife and I find ourselves tasked with looking after our granddaughter, Alice. Alice is nine, going on 36, and starting to hit that time of life when you need to check everything; she gets annoyed if we park in a “Parent and Child” slot, insists […]

Rewatch Review – Toy Story 2

June 21, 2022

A couple of years later and along comes the inevitable sequel. But was Toy Story 2 so unavoidable? To be honest, there seemed to be some doubts amongst the powers that be at Disney. Initial plans were that Toy Story 2 was to be a straight to VHS release…it was the last millennium, after all, […]

Rewatch Review – Toy Story 3

June 21, 2022

And so we come to the conclusion of the Toy Story saga…at least that was the plan at the time. Andy has grown up; he’s now seventeen and about to head to college. Obviously the toys are now accustomed to being neglected. The ones that remain are left in a cupboard but, with Andy’s imminent […]

Movie Review – Hotel Transylvania 4: Transformania

January 16, 2022

A solid B movie in terms of animation values, high-quality celebrity voices, low-key warm humor, and a fun direction the plot spins off into. It’s damn hard to get a franchise right in every iteration, but somehow the under-the-radar work in the Hotel Translyvania oeuvre manages to make a good little story each time. They aren’t up […]

Non-Christmas Christmas Films: Home Alone 2 – Lost in New York (1992)

December 30, 2021

It’s another Christmas, a year later, and young Kevin is lost again. I’m not sure if there’s some intensely bad parenting involved, or if the kid just attracts trouble, but so it goes. It’s basically Die Hard 2, with a ten-year-old, and everyone in-universe pretty much knows it. “Not again” is the theme, which I […]

December 25, 2021

So I’ve been thinking about my favorite Christmas movie category – the ones I call Non-Christmas Christmas Films. This fun category includes such classics as Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, and Gremlins. Iron Man 3. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I have a useful list going here. But in that post, I ask if Home Alone deserves […]

The first part is the one we’re mainly interested in, features Donald Duck and family, and is called Donald Duck: Stuck On Christmas. The second stars Goofy and family in A Very […]

RunPee Weekly Newsletter #85 (October 27th, 2021)

October 27, 2021

The app that tells you the best time to run and pee during a movie without missing the best scenes. DUNE I’ve read the Dune series more times than I remember. And I’ve seen every video adaption made, numerous times. I can come close to quoting the character’s dialog line-for-line. Therefore, I can only review […]

Movie Review – Ron’s Gone Wrong

October 22, 2021

Ron’s Gone Wrong was a cute little film. It had a great moral to the story, which every child that has their own phone can certainly relate to. Social media has done wonders for communication but on the flip side, it’s so much easier now to bully. It happens every day and kids need to […]
