COMING SOON

April 5th, to be exact.  What a glorious little film.  I love that this was nominated back in 1995 for best picture.  It's easily one of the best family films ever made.  And the ridiculously amazing and severely underrated sequel, Babe: Pig in the City, is also a masterwork.  When will that one hit Blu?

Yes, the sequel is insane. I remember thinking....this is a KIDS movie?

It's easily one of the most subversive PG movies ever created. The entire drug-running subplot! The mad-cap physical comedy in the final set piece is bravura filmmaking. And the art direction and production design of the "super city" where Babe ends up is still stunning even by today's heavily CGI'd standards. Sadly, there's no Blu date as of yet...

What a strange resume'. George Miller....
