Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #296: Double, Double, Cauldron Trouble

The post-Walt era for the Disney animation studio was fraught with uncertainty. While the "Disney renaissance" would eventually arrive, the studio would struggle to find their footing. This included producing films like The Black Cauldron, which many consider "the film that almost killed Disney". Join us as we take a look at this lesser-known cult classic and the rough road it traveled that caused it to take almost 15 years to reach audiences. Plus some news and housekeeping.

Plus we have some news including Marvel's marketing department hitting a bulls eye, the loss of a voice from our childhood, some folks with Doctor Who ties get some major awards from the Queen, an announcement of an anticipated DVD release, the premier dates for some of our favorite TV shows, and some more convention guest announcements.
