Phil B.
My name is Phil. I'm from Montreal, Canada. Growing up in the chilly country of Canada, I had to spend a lot of time indoors as a child. That's when I started to draw cartoons, and I haven't stopped since then. I like all sorts of cartoons, whether they're printed or animated. I especially have a soft spot for the ones which were created in the 40s/50s/60s. As an outdoors enthusiast, I am concerned about environmental and wildlife issues. Moreover, if we lose our wild animals, where else am I going to get the inspiration for my cartoons?

No matter how much you want to like this movie, you’re going to be disappointed. Like everyone else, I had high expectations for Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland. They were not met. Tim Burton must have felt like the rabbit in the story, because it looked like he was in a hurry to finish the [...]

A little while ago, Mickey Mouse sat down with his bosses and had a long due conversation. As he was no longer content with his only role as Disney’s emblem, he asked to get back into action. A new video game coming this fall will give him that opportunity. The video game is called Epic [...]

All that was missing were the odours and the mosquito bites. Avatar is a masterpiece. I can’t remember the last time I felt like this after watching a movie. That time was probably after watching Star Wars for the first time, and that was a long, long time ago. Avatar made such an impression on [...]

Did we really need another helping of the classic Dickens story from Hollywood? The answer is an enthusiastic yes! Disney’s version of A Christmas Carol exceeded my expectations by a long shot. What I anticipated to be another family-friendly Christmas flick is in fact a thrilling ghost movie, to the point that I actually jumped [...]
