    LAIKA's ParaNorman

    This week on High Expectations, we head to Blithe Hollow for LAIKA’s spooky stop-motion adventure, ParaNorman. We’re talking Norman’s ability to see the dead, a centuries-old witch’s curse, surprisingly sympathetic zombies, and a town that might be scarier than the monsters it fears. Plus, we get into the incredible stop-motion work behind the film, its darker themes about fear and acceptance, and why ParaNorman deserves more recognition as one of LAIKA’s best.

    Studio Ghibli's Ponyo

    In this episode we dive into Hayao Miyazaki’s Ponyo, a wildly imaginative story of friendship, family, and a little fish with a serious love for ham. We break down the movie’s unforgettable animation, environmental themes, behind-the-scenes details, and the pure chaos that follows when Ponyo decides she wants to become human. Grab some ramen and join us as we head under the sea for one of Studio Ghibli’s most charming adventures.

    This week on High Expectations, we're heading to the swamp to revisit Shrek, the animated comedy that helped redefine fairy tales for a new generation. We break down the movie's memorable characters, quotable moments, killer soundtrack, and surprising emotional core to see if it still works 25 years later.

    Oo-de-Lally! Disney's Robin Hood

    This week, we head to Sherwood Forest to revisit Disney’s animated classic Robin Hood (1973). With animal outlaws, corrupt royalty, catchy folk songs, and one of Disney’s most lovable duos in Robin and Little John, does this laid-back cult favorite still hold up, or is it just nostalgia talking? We break down the movie’s charm, recycled animation, iconic music, and surprisingly sharp themes about power, greed, and heroism, all while trying to decide if Prince John is secretly one of Disney’s funniest villains ever.

    100th Episode!! Half Baked

    For our 100th episode, we went back to a true stoner comedy staple: Half Baked. It might be the most quotable movie with the least amount of actual plot, so we revisit it to see if there’s more to it than nostalgia and great lines. We break down what still works, what feels dated, and whether Dave Chappelle is quietly carrying the whole thing, from the chaotic, sketch-like structure to the endless cameos. And yes, we give proper respect to all-time names like Wesley Pipes and Billy Bong Thornton. Stoner classic or just a collection of great moments?
