= An American Tail =

An American Tail is a 1986 animated musical comedy-drama adventure film directed by Don Bluth, director of The Secret of NIMH & The Land Before Time, and written by David Kirschner, Judy Freudberg, and Tony Geiss.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Beautiful and excellent animation.
 * 2) Amazing musical numbers, as well as a great score by James Horner, who would then compose Titanic, The Land Before Time, and, of course, Avatar.
 * 3) A very emotional story that pays homage to immigrants, and proves that not all family movies have to be too light and innocent.
 * 4) Nice voice acting.
 * 5) A cast of likable and memorable characters, such as the protagonist, Fievel, and Tiger the cat, voiced by the great Dom DeLuise.
 * 6) The message of the movie is so inspirational.
 * 7) Don Bluth manages to strike twice.
 * 8) Magnificent photography.
 * 9) Decent editing.
 * 10) The film has a wonderful pace.
 * 11) Some funny moments.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The sequels are weak, and not as good.
 * 2) The plot can be predictable at times, and hard to follow.
 * 3) The screenplay can be too standard.
 * 4) It can get kind of dark for its target audience.



= Muppets from Space = Muppets from Space is a 1999 science fiction comedy film directed by Tim Hill.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Decent soundtrack, even with pop songs rather than musical numbers like the first five Muppet movies.
 * 2) Tim Hill did his directing skills right the first time he was a director when he directed this movie.
 * 3) The puppetry is a great step-up from previous Muppet movies.
 * 4) Very funny humor that keeps kids and parents amused and happy.
 * 5) The story is well-executed, and the writing is pretty good.
 * 6) The Muppets themselves are still lovable.
 * 7) Gonzo returns as the protagonist.
 * 8) Great acting from actors such as Jeffrey Tambor, Ray Liotta, and F. Murray Abraham.
 * 9) The voice acting from the puppets is still great.
 * 10) The score by Jamshied Sharifi was awesome.
 * 11) Nice special effects, even for 1999 standards.
 * 12) The concept is pretty interesting.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) It bombed at the box office, obviously because of rushed production and weak advertising, and not another Muppet movie would be made for twelve years.
 * 2) The soundtrack did not age well for some Muppet fans, as it uses pop culture songs rather than original songs, unlike other Muppet movies, which do use original songs.
 * 3) For a movie with such a neat script, the story can still be a bit predictable.
 * 4) The special effects, while good for 1999 standards, didn’t age well for some, while they do hold up on their own for the most part.

= The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On the Run = The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On the Run is a 2020 live-action/computer-animated fantasy comedy film set to be directed by Tim Hill.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) The voice acting is still great, as the actors from the show return.
 * 2) Beautiful CGI animation that truly catches the spirit of the first three seasons and the show overall.
 * 3) Atlantic City looks really amazing!
 * 4) Hans Zimmer might do a great job composing the score.
 * 5) Baby Gary and Young SpongeBob are so cute.
 * 6) The story might be decent.
 * 7) The humor is expected to be funny.
 * 8) Like the first two movies, this one will play like a grand adventure.
 * 9) It will be a nice movie remake of the season 4 episode, "[[mh:besttvshows:Have You Seen This Snail? (SpongeBob SquarePants)|Have You Seen This Snail?}}".
 * 10) SpongeBob's voice is still really good.
 * 11) Keanu Reeves did a really good job as Sage.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) While it would be nice to revisit Gary missing, the idea of finding him had already been used almost fifteen years before with the double-length Season 4 episode “Have You Seen this Snail?”.

=Bicentennial Man=

Bicentennial Man is a 1999 science fiction comedy drama film directed by Chris Columbus, and starring the late and great actor Robin Williams, with Sam Neill, Embeth Davidtz, Wendy Crawson, and Oliver Platt.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Great acting, particularly from Robin Williams.
