The Comeback Era Starts Here…

Don’t call it a comeback! Or, do – because film journalist Ben Travis and animation academic Sam Summers are back with a new batch of episodes, following Disney into The Comeback Era. And before things kick off properly with The Princess And The Frog, here’s a little warm-up episode teeing up where we left off, where this next batch of films takes us, and covering some very important business: we have a new live show coming up, so get your tickets now! Ben is going to D23 soon! And is Minions & Monsters better than Toy Story 5? See you very soon for our next proper episode…

Next up: The Princess And The Frog

Welcome to Disniversity, the podcast crash course through the history of Disney’s animated classics, with film journalist Ben Travis and animation academic Dr. Sam Summers. Each week, we’ll be moving forward in time through the legendary Walt Disney Animation Studios catalogue, watching every feature film in chronological order – from Snow White to Zootropolis 2. Watch along with us, and listen as we explore each film’s historical context, advances in animation and lasting legacy, and talk about how they stand up today.
