Fire and Ice
Jun. 22nd, 2025 04:39 pmTubi suggested Fire and Ice to me, and as a fantasy lover, I couldn't resist!
But, IMHO, while I was prepared for a lot of scantily clad people (Frank Frazetta just hates pants ;-D), I wasn't prepared for the straight up racism with the subhumans. It was just very, very bad. The rotoscoping was beautiful, and although simple stories were okay, the plot was just too simple for my liking. It was nice that Princess Teegra is a capable gal and not a damsel in distress, and the fantasy world is interesting, but it was all surprisingly ho-hum for the feature length. Honestly, watching Saturday morning cartoons would be more interesting :-D
I also couldn't get over the fact that when Prince Nekron is using his ice powers--well, he's pretty much having an O! It really hasn't aged well.
Bonus trivia: Thomas Kinkade and James Gurney did the backgrounds.
