About that Dora, non-Explorer (we knew someone would say the joke so I beat you to it...HA!)

[Mentally prepare yourself for I talking about myself in third-person, because that's usually what's done in "About Me" pages, not because I talk about myself in the third person...I'm more of a first and sixteenth-kind of person:]

Dora Goto is a filmmaker, film writer, media writer about film, and cartoon artist. She is interested in sharing stories that she finds interesting and can share her voice on, including stories about media, film news, and stories that put at its focus diverse and underrepresented groups.

Dora is a self-described cinephile, which is synonym for a very big film enthusiast that likes to over analyze films and likely find meaning in them that wasn't intended.

About Dora Goto Talks, aka this site you're currently on:
I love writing articles and stories, doing research and learning from them, but my intention for making Dora Goto Talks was not just reporting the story as is, but to try to add some commentary - when applicable and, if subjective, not affecting the integrity and objectivity of the story (so maybe there will be few cat lady jokes in a story here and there, but the story will still be reported and presented as it truthfully is).

While the stories I will be sharing are based on research and resources that I've gathered, I'm also interested in making my writing about stories feel more personal - hence the wrapping every story with "Sincerely, Dora Goto" followed by some lame joke that I come up with because I feel they're funny and I'm quirky even though I'm not Zoey Deschanel who I adore. I want to inform anyone who reads my writing about stories that I feel passionate about, enjoy, and that they can potentially love too and make them want to read more.

If you enjoy Dora Goto Talks, in which I talk about anything and everything in between, make sure to subscribe (I'm so going to beat Pewdiepie in subs!)

Four Days After "The Addams Family" Hit Theaters, A Sequel Has Already Been Confirmed

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Hear that? It's the sound of my mind being blown...or that of me snapping along to the Addams Family theme song. Following the commercial success of this year's animated re-imagining of one of our favorite unconventional families,  The Addams Family , which was released on theaters October 11, Deadline  exclusively confirmed on Tuesday that an animated kooky and spooky sequel is already in the works. In just its opening weekend, The Addams Family has earned $30.3 million from its theatrical releases in the United States and Canada (a little bit more than three-quarters of its $40 million budget), surpassing box office predictions and showing that millions of moviegoers are still interested in catching up with what Gomez Addams and his family are doing once again. In doing so,  The Addams Family also became the second highest grossing film in the domestic box office this weekend, following Joker which earned $55.9 million. While it...

Live-Action "Aladdin" Sequel MAY Be in The Works, Producer Dan Lin Confirms

Disney It looks like we might be returning to Aladdin's world - or rather, a whole new world. Following the global commercial success of this year's live-action  Aladdin , including flying past the $1 billion dollar mark in the global box office (no magic carpet needed), it appears that a sequel of the live-action adaptation is a possibility and, according to producer Dan Lin, is already in early talks. "We'd love to," Lin told SYFY WIRE , "People clearly loved the movie and watched it multiple times and we get lots of fan letters and people asking us to make Return [of] Jafar ." While Lin shared that they are still in the early stages of discussion, "we're certainly talking about another movie." One of the important conditions in making the potential Aladdin sequel would be for Ritchie to return and direct it. That's "the hope", Lin continued . "[Ritchie] made [ Aladdin ] for his kids. They loved Aladdin , b...
