Animated Films in the Stormcave

Welcome to An Evening in the Stormcave, with your hosts Grant Walker and Jenelle Schmidt

Tonight we are talking about some of our favorite animated films! In animation the canvas can be stretched as far as the imagination can run.

If you haven't seen any of these films we encourage you to give them a shot and, as always, share your favorites with us!
