Disney Reviews, Interviews & More
Disney's collaboration with Marvel continues to surprise fans as one new project after another pops up. The latest one isn't your regular run-of-the-mill Disney live-action superhero movie but an animated one. We're talking about Big Hero 6, Disney's first big animated feature that they've teamed up to do with Marvel Studios.
Every film is prone to receive certain final cuts for different reasons. Maybe the film is filled with a little extra nudity that can't be shown on cable television, so they cut it out. But every once in awhile you'll hear about an entire country randomly fixing up a film for strange reasons. This time Iron Man 3 will be tweaked by China and receive even more...
As we officially make our way into spring we find that the movies are getting even more action-packed. That means summer is right around the corner, and with that means the upcoming release of Iron Man 3. Since we're closer to the release means we'll be seeing even more advertising on the superhero movie. And since Marvel is tied together with Disney, they...
You’ve got to give it to Disney—those folks are really living in amazing fantasy land. Despite the fact that Guillermo del Toro is already producing a new version of Beauty and the Beast with Emma Watson that will film later this year, that Silent Hill director Christophe Gans is pitching his own...
If you've been living under a rock for the past couple of months, then you haven't heard the major changes that Disney and company are doing to the Star Wars franchise. Now that Star Wars: Episode VII is beginning pre-production, it's time for Disney and Lucasfilm to renovate what's going on in the Star Wars animation department. Some...
Apparently more people want to see Oz The Great And Powerful than some of us imagined. We only realized this once the midnight box office numbers came in, showing that the new Disney prequel has two million bucks in it's pocket.
So after receiving moderate to solid reviews, and tracking projecting a possible $100 million weekend, Disney has already begun prepping a sequel to Sam Raimi’s Wizard of Oz prequel, Oz the Great and Powerful, meaning that we likely have to spend another two to three years not seeing films from Raimi like Evil Dead or...
In news that is sure to set a good chunk of the internet to implode in on itself, Harrison Ford has agreed to star in J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: Episode VII as Han Solo. Yes, you read the correctly—Harrison Ford is returning as Han Solo.
Pixar continues to roll out the sequels to some of their biggest hits, despite what some fans and critics want. Today they moved just a step closer into production as they got Albert Brooks to voice Marlin, the high-strung clown fish, once again in Finding Nemo 2. But that's not the only deal that Disney is making as they may give Andrew Stanton a second chance at...
I remember it like it was yesterday. After suffering through what seemed like an hour of bad romance, and a side plot that didn't advance much character (and maybe a little plot), we saw Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi go toe to toe with Count Dooku. Yeah, maybe the fights were a little CGI enhanced, but it was still a lightsaber battle. Then Yoda showed up and turned into a whirling...
Ever since Disney announced that they would be releasing an all new trilogy of Star Wars sequels, fan speculation has run rampant concerning the “stand-alone” films that Disney also mentioned producing, which would each take place in the Star Wars universe, but would be more concerned with individual characters rather than the overall series arc of Jedi versus the Sith. And with...
One of the more interesting aspects of Disney’s re-launching of the Star Wars franchise is that not only are they prepping the release of an all-new trilogy, but that they are set to release a series of stand-alone films set within the Star Wars universe as well. And the first of those stand-alone films may well star a little green guy who has an odd manner of...
It’s been a topsy-turvy few months for fans of both the Star Wars and Star Trek franchises. On the Star Trek end of the spectrum, there has been wild and fervid internet speculation as to whether or not director J.J. Abrams would commit the supposed sacrilege of rebooting the classic Trek villain Khan for the upcoming Star Trek Into Darkness...
In this world, there are few things you’re supposed to leave alone—sleeping dogs, hornet’s nests, and the Disney corporation. But the film Escape From Tomorrow, which just premiered at Sundance, did exactly that—the movie was shot almost entirely at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida and Disneyland in Anaheim, California, and “without the knowledge or...
Ever since Disney got their hands on Lucasfilms' previous Star Wars property, the possibility of there being a new trilogy finally became a reality. The same may go for the long-rumored live-action television series, believe it or not. No, seriously. They want to finally make the Star Wars television series. Okay, we'll wait. Just take a...
Here’s some news that’s a little less than surprising. Mark Romanek, known for his dark, disturbing visions both as music video director (Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer,” Fiona Apple’s “Criminal, and Johnny Cash’s “Hurt”) and a film director (One Hour Photo, Never Let Me Go) has been forced to bail on directing a live-action update of...
While there weren't many fans in TRON: Legacy, there is one fan whose interest just sparked a revival in its sequel plans. Alan Horn, the new head of Disney, is looking to breathe some new life into the much talked about sequel. And if you don't think he's super serious about bringing this project back to life, then you should read on to see who else he has on this sequel.
It's hard not to collectively groan when you read a title like that. It's not that we're groaning over the fact that Johnny Depp has another big acting job to do, but it's just that he continues to lean more towards the odd, quirky kind of characters very similar to Captain Jack Sparrow that made him into an international superstar. While some may argue that he's drying up the well when it...
After suffering from declining profits, Netflix could be getting a huge boost starting next year due to their new agreement with the House of Mouse. After taking their time forging a deal with Disney that users were hoping to see awhile ago, we'll be able to add a couple of our favorite classics onto our Instant queue. But there's more to it then that.
In new sure to make fanboys and fangirls positively squeal with excitement, The Hollywood Reporter has it that Lawrence Kasdan (you know, the guy who happened to write the scripts for The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, no big deal) has struck a deal with Disney to write one of...
