Not starting a new board for a single comment.

The Parent Trap (1998 remake)
At the end, Nick and Hallie surprise Elizabeth and Annie by beating them to London, noting that the Concorde gets there in half the time.

First of all, in the US, the Concorde only flew out of JFK in New York, not out of SFO in San Francisco. So Nick and Hallie would have had to fly to New York, and then transfer to the Concorde.

Second, it was awfully convenient that there was a (nonexistent) Concorde flight leaving just after Elizabeth and Allie's flight, wasn't it?

Back To The Secret Garden:
Released in 2001, Back to the Secret Garden is the Hallmark sequel to its own 1987 version of The Secret Garden.

It featured some of the characters from The Secret Garden who were children in original story now all grown up in this sequel as it is set 40 years later.

This sequel therefore centres on the children set in this time period.

The original story was headlined by young girl Mary (with her adult self played here by Cherie Lunghi in this sequel).

For this sequel it is headlined by young girl Lizzie Buscana (Camilla Belle).

Overall not a bad sequel to that original story and Lizzie as played by young Camilla Belle makes for a good main protagonist of this story.

All of which is capped off by a poignant ending.

In the 2018 Film "Christopher Robin"
The CGI and Voices on all the characters, Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Roo were done to perfection, just one problem, No Gopher; the character of Gopher from "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" was left out, the movie felt incomplete without him.
