The Black Cauldron (1985)

Disney Hits Rock Bottom

The Black Cauldron was released during the darkest period in Disney's history. It flopped so badly that it nearly killed the studio's animation department. Just thinking about that alone is wild enough. Yet some fans defend this as a misunderstood classic. One thing is for sure. It should have been better. ___ Please consider joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wwibofficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whywasntitbetter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wwib_official Twitter: https://x.com/WWIBpodcast Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/wwibpodcast Subscribe!
