When you think of 90s animal movies at least one of these duos comes to mind -- BEETHOVEN or HOMEWARD BOUND. Now, we touched on some behind the scenes information when we talked to the director of the first BEETHOVEN earlier this year (be sure to chec...

The seaweed is always greener, in somebody else's pond....This week's episode, we discuss the Disney animated classic, The Little Mermaid from 1989.
