Netflix Reincarnated Avatar the Last Airbender – Episode 34 – The Polymath Roundtable

In the world of animated TV, few shows are quite as treasured in the US as Avatar: The Last Airbender which is back on Netflix now! Its a brilliant show but has a lot of troubles because of the pagan roots of the world. Be aware of that, you probably don’t want to blindly let your young children watch this without being ready to discuss Asian spirituality and reincarnation beliefs and why we as Christians believe differently.

I rate the story an 8/10 but the pagan elements force me to rate it as whole a 5/10 max.

Abominable or Not: You Decide! – Episode 32 – The Polymath Roundtable

A welcome reprieve after watching Onward last month and being disappointed deeply, Abominable is up for discussion today! Great music and hugely artistic visuals, stunning on that aspect. I never guessed that I would pan a Pixar film so hard until Onward, but Dreamworks brought a fantastic movie to replace that in my heart.

Abominable rates a solid 8.5 for me! Minor philisophical issues, but overall a fantastic film. Happily recommended.

Retro Movie Rewind – The Love Bug – Episode 29

I grew up watching classic movies, and starting today we are diving into the glorious world of classic films every Thursday! Our first Retro Movie Rewind is…..The Love Bug featuring the iconic Herbie! Its like Steve McQueen starring in It’s A Wonderful Life, Now with 50% more Car! Pseudo-spirituality, and glorious classic cars make this an odd duck of a heart warming film.

8/10 rating, minor spiritual confusion issues.

A Gem from a Rough Genre – Snow White with the Red Hair – Episode 28

Few genres are so quickly marginalized or stereotyped (for good reason) as Anime. Despite the well-deserved content warnings, there are some incredible gems available. Today we mention one such gem, Snow White With the Red Hair.

Appropriate for all, 10/10 rating. Available on Hulu, and other services.

DISCLAIMER: Anime is not just a genre, but a full production art style, much like Bollywood or Hollywood productions. One show approved is NOT a recommendation for the genre as a whole. The title of “Anime” covers everything from kids shows to pornographic production. Partake with caution.

Going Blind into Ori and the Blind Forest

Ori and the Blind Forest. Platformer, puzzle game, Japanese spiritualism, and impeccable art. I had never gotten into the platformer game art style, but this one caught my eye watching the sequel gameplay on twitch, and I just had to try it. 9/10, only downrated for using a pantheistic world style straight out of Japanese mythology. Not a particularly dangerous usage, but something to be aware of if allowing younger people to play.
