Siskel & Ebert were the gateway drug for a generation of film critics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alan Ng is no exception.<\/p>\n

Ng, the editor-in-chief of FilmThreat.com<\/a>, recalls seeing Gene Siskel squabble with Roger Ebert on his TV screen and something clicked inside him.<\/p>\n

\u201cTheir epic battles were the best part of the show,\u201d Ng recalled during an interview with The Hollywood in Toto Podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n

Becoming the next Siskel or Ebert wasn\u2019t easy, of course.<\/p>\n

\u201cLife got in the way, I had to pay for bills and things like that,\u201d Ng said. The 2008 housing crash forced him to reconsider his professional path.<\/p>\n

\u201cRather than go back into the office, it became about, \u2018Hey, let’s see if we could pursue this passion of not just film criticism but talking about films. So I just started blogging,\u201d Ng recalled.<\/p>\n

As fate would have it, he bumped into Film Threat founder Chris Gore<\/a> at a \u201cFuturama\u201d-themed gaming event and Gore suggested Ng send him some writing samples.<\/p>\n

Ng proved he could not only blog about films but run a web site, too. He became FilmThreat.com\u2019s managing editor and, later, its Editor-in-Chief.<\/p>\n

RELATED: DISNEY SUFFERS ANOTHER CRUEL BLOW<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Gore started Film Threat magazine along with Andre Seewood in 1985<\/a>, a counter-culture paean to indie filmmaking. The magazine explored race relations and Hollywood\u2019s casting couch long before the subjects caught fire into the mainstream, punching up despite modest resources.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe magazine was there to take digs at the Hollywood system,\u201d Ng said.<\/p>\n

Plenty has changed since 1985, including the technology indie filmmakers have to bring their vision to the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you’re a filmmaker out there \u2026 you don’t necessarily want to go the Hollywood system. In fact, the tools are available to you now as a filmmaker to make your movie,” Ng said.<\/p>\n

La La Land still matters, but he said the industry often dilutes the stories being told.<\/p>\n

\u201cQuite frankly, if you go into the Hollywood system, you’re not telling your stories anymore. You\u2019re doing it the way they want.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n

Film Threat began as a thumb in the eye to Tinsel Town. Today, the site and its signature podcast is knee deep in the culture wars. Film Threat champions free speech, not the Thought Police.<\/p>\n

For Ng, it’s personal.<\/p>\n

Ng, a Chinese-American, recalls the struggles he had in the 1980s to find work as a person of color. That\u2019s dramatically improved over the decades, but suddenly race is front and center despite sizable progress.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis issue of race is not one that people want to solve anymore. It feels like that there’s a system out there that wants to keep us constantly at odds with each other, which is ironically the plot behind \u2018Flash Gordon,\u2019 keeping all the tribes at war with each other,” he said. “And I feel like that’s, that seems to be what’s going on in the culture now is they have to constantly keep us at war with one another.\u201d<\/p>\n

It’s why he\u2019s overseeing \u201cThe D-Files,\u201d<\/a> an investigation into the DEI trappings at Disney.<\/p>\n

The project began by accident. Ng found Disney\u2019s latest animated effort, \u201cWish<\/a>,\u201d to be the company\u2019s least accomplished animated film to date, and he said as much on the Film Threat podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was almost as if they had cast aside Walt [Disney\u2019s] textbook, and his legacy for, ironically, the movie that represents the 100 years of The Walt Disney Company,” he said. “And so I did a review on our film threat live cast on YouTube. And I just went through the trailer and just went through screen by screen.”<\/p>\n

He pulled no punches.<\/p>\n

\u201cI walked away thinking, \u2018Was I too harsh?\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cAnd then we start getting emails [from current and former Disney employees] \u2026 and they began to explain what was going on at Disney animation. \u201c<\/p>\n

Anonymously, of course. Speaking out against DEI practices can damage a career, sometimes permanently.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were essentially saying everything you said was right. And that things are not going well at Disney animation … it began to open the floodgates as to the toxic environment that Disney had become,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
