20th Century Studios

**20th Century Studios** (formerly known as **20th Century Fox**) is an American film studio currently owned by The Walt Disney Studios, a subsidiary of the Disney Entertainment division of The Walt Disney Company.

Phantomstrider does have positive feelings about TCS. He enjoyed some of their films, that were decent/good, such as Titanic, Fantastic Mr. Fox, some of the Blue Sky Studios films, etc.

He doesn’t like all of TCS, however. Some of their films he isn’t fond of include Avatar, Dragonball: Evolution, Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007), Garfield: The Movie, Kung Pow!, etc.

Overall though, Strider finds TCS a very solid movie studio, especially since they are currently owned by his favorite movie company, Disney.

## His Favorite TCS Movie

Phantomstrider's favorite TCS movie is The Peanuts Movie. He really likes how it highlights the best aspects of the *Peanuts* franchise: the slice of life story in the world of *Peanuts*, showing the lives of the *Peanuts* kids (specifically, the day-to-day life of the ever relatable screw-up, Charlie Brown), the story itself is simple but cute, and while this film is a bit of a checklist of *Peanuts* gags (like the football gag and the wall talk), there is so much heart and characterization to the film, the wholesomeness kind of builds on top of itself and becomes a real delight to watch. There’s very solid characterization for so much of the cast (especially Charlie's relationship with Snoopy), and Snoopy also has a nice subplot that connects to Charlie's story with the red-haired girl. Strider admits this is the best animation that TCS has ever given us, as in order to adapt to something like *Peanuts*, you need to capture the feel, but also the looks Schulz brought to his comics. Blue Sky (the animation studio for this TCS film) succeeds in getting that unique feel right, and here it’s so perfectly captured. Even the only real negative Strider had for this movie, it can be a bit slow paced, is not inherently bad. In fact, the slow pace is kind of refreshing, because the film pleasantly gives exactly what the comic delivers, so the slow pace gives us a bit more immersion into the lives of the characters. Striders says that this is what 20th Century Studios is all about: helping characters write off the 2D paper and step into the 3D world, as from visuals to writing, The Peanuts Movie captures and exemplifies everything he’s enjoyed about Peanuts since he was a kid, and to him, that makes it the absolute best TCS movie of all time.

## His Least Favorite TCS Movie

Phantomstrider absolutely loathes his least favorite TCS movie with a passion, saying it’s even worse than the worst of Family Guy, the worst of American Dad!, and even all the other bad movies from TCS combined, Freddy Got Fingered. He also doubtlessly considers this to be the absolute worst movie of all time due to its excessively unfunny amounts of gore and gross-out. He considers its content so revolting that it has permanently scarred TCS's reputation, even more than modern Family Guy ever did, as this movie even sinks lower than *Ren Seeks Help.*
