To let you readers in on a secret that is definitely not a secret to my parents, I grew up on Disney. In fact, I probably owned every single Disney film in existence for the most part. But the point is, Disney movies have held a special place in my heart for as long as…
Today is National Pet Day and we want to celebrate our favorite Disney pets Pets are, without a doubt, amazingly cool. But you know what is cooler? A Disney pet! Most of them talk or communicate with their own language and they are loyal, funny and (more or less) brave. Seriously, who didn’t grow up…
Happy International Siblings Day! There are plenty of Disney and Marvel siblings to celebrate and we love all of them. To celebrate this day, we are going to list just a few of them that always manage to warm our hearts. So keep reading and celebrate these awesome and powerful siblings with us! Anna &…
Given that we here at Cape & Castle are an all-woman staff, it seems prudent that we celebrate International Women’s Day by recognizing the inspiring, empowering, badass women of Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars. As an impressionable girl of the 1990s, I grew up with the films that featured three-fourths of Disney’s Princess Line….

And it wasn’t an easy challenge as Waititi chose to make a comedy set in World War II Nazi Germany. A bold and risky move that…
It’s bizarre to think The Rise of Skywalker released a month ago. We at Cape & Castle have had lots of thoughts about the film, particularly on Rey and Ben Solo, but we haven’t talked nearly enough about another key character—Finn. The Stormtrooper-turned Resistance hero has been a highlight of the sequel trilogy. John Boyega’s portrayal of…
Warning: Are you sure these are the spoilers you’re looking for? The recent shift in the film industry’s approach to storytelling is concerning. Writers care more about ensuring the audience cannot predict what will happen rather than telling a good narrative—and Star Wars is no exception. The Rise of Skywalker destroys the mythological and thematic beauty of…
Disney is bearing exciting gifts for 2020 Happy New Year, everyone! 2019 was an exciting year for CapeandCastle, and a busy one for Disney. The Lion King, Dumbo, Aladdin, the Maleficent sequel, Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame among others— quite a handful non-exhaustive list if you want my opinion.
