So long, farewell my eye, the cast from the classic musical The Sound of Music are back! When was the last time that you saw every member of the famous Von Trapp family in the same place at the same time? A while ago Julie Andrews and the seven actors who played the children appeared on a national news program but Christopher Plummer was unable to attend. Therefore it wasn’t really an reunion was it?
Today we’ve learned that after 45 years, Andrews, Plummer, Charmian Carr, Nicholas Hammond, Heather Menzies-Urich, Duane Chase, Angela Cartwright, Debbie Turner, and Kym Karath will all reunite on an upcoming episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”

Move over How to Train Your Dragon, Universal Pictures is releasing their animated feature Despicable Me in hopes of cashing in on some that 3D family-fun. The film stars “The Office’s” Steve Carell, “How I Met Your Mother’s” Jason Segel and Get Him to the Greek’s Russell Brand. With those 3 as the main actors it sounds like a match made in comedy heaven, right? The movie does have its funny moments and is filled with plenty of entertaining material but it’s in no shape or form the best animated film of the season (Toy Story 3 took that honor)…

Another Shrek, another chance to see your favorite animated characters and another chance to be reminded of the genius that was the first film, without this being the first film. The problem with this entire series is that it started with a bang, fell to a whimper, and with it’s grand finale is simply enough to make up for how much it’s lost without really ever wow-ing us. Shrek Forever After is a good movie, they were creative in finding a way to make the characters fresh again, and there were definitely enough laughs in it to leave me satisfied, BUT it wasn’t without a few problems. But lets starts at the top…

If you told me ten years ago that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would sport a pink tutu, and fairy wings I would have called you insane. But that’s exactly what’s happens in Tooth Fairy, a family comedy that stars Johnson as the fabled creature who takes children’s teeth and leaves them money under their pillow. The film is directed by Michael Lembeck and he literally places Johnson in the land of fairies and forces him to act out every children’s fantasy known to man. It may be a joy for the kids but it turns out to be a nightmare for the adults…

Julie Andrews is known for playing sweet matriarchal figures in movies, but this summer she’s going to be a real “wench.” According to the actress she’ll be appearing as a one of the bad guys in the animated film Despicable Me. I never thought I’d live to see the day when Mary Poppins got down and dirty, but Andrews had a lot of devilish things to say about her character…

Prepare yourself for a few painful minutes of video watching. A trailer has been released for Dwayne Johnson‘s upcoming family comedy, The Tooth Fairy. Last week we brought you the poster for the film that scared me and many of our reader sh*tless. It featured Johnson with wings and ice skates, so you can understand the terror factor. Now that the trailer has been released, it adds a whole other level of weirdness thanks to the use of powder blue spandex and fairy dust.
Take a look at the terrifying trailer for The Tooth Fairy…
