- veo_11 December 2025This is way weirder than I remembered. It's a pastiche of so many other similar era works: Charles and the Chocolate Factory, Mary Poppins, Pinocchio, The Phantom Toll Booth, the Lion that Roared. It's a quirky mess.
- mickerdoo23 August 2025Wasn't raised on this. Seemed like a lot of energy and effort for a handful of nonsensical songs. Van Dyke and Howes definitely had spunk.
