You should watch the 1982 Tron first, and we build on our review of that movie with many new philosophies and required Critical Thinking for Tron: Legacy.

Join Eve and Daniel in this cool blast from their past—the very first podcast episode they recorded together on the classic movie Tron. With the upcoming release of Disney’s new Tron: Legacy , which will be opening in theaters in just a couple short weeks, it seemed a great time to pull this first endeavor to discuss a movie from a biblical worldview from the archives.

Disney returns to it's classic-style with it's fiftieth feature-length cartoon Tangled, a computer-animated film based on the classic German fairytale of Rapunzel complete with Disney's musical animations, which families have known for years. Tangled is adventurous, romantic, and a lot of fun to watch, and also raises a few discussion points on magic, eternal life, rebellion, the world, dreams, fate, and the power of love.

We’ve returned to the studio to record the second part of our discussion on the action-packed, sci fi thriller, I, Robot.

It’s been a while since we’ve posted a regular episode, but we hope you’ve enjoyed our long run of Initial Reaction episodes this summer.

Daniel and Eve share brief initial reactions to The Sorcerer's Apprentice and Inception. Both movies contain enough content that we'd love to critique them in greater depth once they are out on DVD.

Toy Story 3 continues Pixar's fantastic story-telling after Toy Story and Toy Story 2. Friendship, trust, working together, and unresolved bitterness are strong themes. But the animated short "Night & Day" raises more discussion.

The Karate Kid remake was entertaining and clean. We still have some initial reactions along with some critical thinking to help you when you view it.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time follows an adventurous prince who teams up with a rival princess to stop an angry ruler from unleashing a sandstorm that could destroy the world. We share our critical thinking on destiny, adoption, personal faith, global flood (again), condition of man, corruption, time, and even taxes!

We're back to finish our discussion on the entertaining, computer-animated film, Ice Age. If you missed the first part of our discussion, please go back and listen to it. Also go back and listen to our first episode to get an overview of critical thinking.

A hit, action-packed sequel to Iron Man brings not only twice the Iron Men and twice the women, but also raises plenty of questions on pleasure, legacy, world peace, God, heroes, science and technology, and more.

After just coming out of our seasonal ice age, we bring to you a critical-thinking analysis of the fun, animated movie, Ice Age. In this first part, we discuss ice ages, global flood, global warming, extinction, evolution, big brains, and fire. So listen now!

Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland is loosely based on Lewis Carroll's classic stories. We discuss it from a class and timeless Biblical perspective. This episode does contain spoilers.

Avatar‘s Pandora is a beautiful world. But underneath the overly familiar story lay philosophies of environmentalism, spiritualism, and more. Be warned that this (late) initial reactions does contain spoilers. Brief announcements We both now have press status to see movies prior to release. Hopefully, this will result in prompt initial reactions to future releases that...

Is there a spiritual realm? Can dead people affect us? What can dead people do? What's after death? How can we protect ourselves? And more in our discussion.
