WWTD 051 - Tomorrowland: Hey Y'all, I'm a Scientist!

Welcome, D Lovers, to the World of Tomorrow! By which we mean, welcome to Disney's Tomorrowland, a film of multiple visual delights and even more head-scratching plot points. From the brilliant vision of acclaimed animation director Brad Bird and the often-criticized writer Damon Lindelof, this film is a hodgepodge of set pieces featuring an obnoxiously overly-intelligent teenager, killer robots who enter and exit the film with little fanfare, and terse romantic undertones between George Clooney and a twelve year old girl (don't worry, she's a robot as well). Sprinkle all that with a helping of Tim McGraw and plenty of unresolved questions, and you end up with...probably not the blockbuster original film the House of Mouse was hoping for. It's easy to say this movie didn't live up to anyone's expectations for it, but Vicky, Nolan and Jill sure had a ball talking about it. So as We Want The D strides confidently into their own world of tomorrow and second year, join us as we discuss one of Disney's most recent missteps.
