episode 9: #009 - Movie Review - Big Hero 6
This week, we have our first review of an animated movie and our first superhero team — Big Hero 6. We discuss the importance of science in the movie, the motivations of the villain, the tendency of Disney movies to explore personal loss, and what it takes for a normal person to turn into a mad scientist. And, of course, we love the adorable, inflated, medical robot, Baymax. Follow us to San Fransokyo as we witness the origin story of a new team of defenders. They didn’t set out to be superheroes, but they became…Big Hero 6.
