Teasing Pirates...

Yo ho, buckets of mo...






The teaser poster for "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" is out...

Looks like Captain Jack hasn't been doing very well, does it?

Six months to go before we find out why...

And Trailer Too...

No sooner has the first images of Walt Disney Pictures "Winnie the Pooh" been released that the official trailer has as well...

Quite quaint and nostalgic if I do say so.

It looks like a return to the Hundred Acre Woods is definitely in order...

Pooh Too...

Next year sees the release of another hand drawn animated film about a famous bear from the Mouse...

"Winnie the Pooh" will be Walt Disney Animation Studios' 51st animated feature and will be the company's last one to feature the safe style and look that some have complained about (princesses and classic, often used characters). Then comes the lull of 2012, after which we'll get some rather interesting changes in direction away from the creatures from the Hundred Acre Woods.

Not that this film will be bad. In fact, from the few sources I've talked to, this film is turning into a sweet, little gem. The story has been worked out rather well by Burny Mattinson and the directors and they've been in the process of finely tuning this very moderately priced picture (less than a third of the cost of TPATF). This film, even if it makes half of what that film made will be quite profitable. Now, if they can just make it past Harry Potter.

I hear that is what Tiggers do best...

Framed...

Imagine that on the wall next to my other sweet swag...


When you take the last three posters from Walt Disney Pictures "Tron Legacy" and put them together, they make one awesome banner...

Best. Three. Tron. Posters. Ever.

I am soooo getting this framed...

Sign(ing) Of The Times...

Cross the T's and dot the I's...


It seems that the Mouse has made it official...

The Walt Disney Company signed the deal with the Shanghai Shen Di Group Co., which is the parnership company that was formed to facilitate the creation of Shanghai Disneyland. The terms of the deal are said to be very similar to the Hong Kong Disneyland deal, but with the local government having more scrutiny when agreeing on the final plans of the park. The mistakes made in Disney's other Chinese park are to be avoided. The officials/suits of Shanghai expect this and Iger's management team understands this.

Unfortunately, no artwork released yet, but...

Getting On The Grid...

With all the buzz surrounding "Tron Legacy" the Suits in Burbank are getting a bit giddy...

How Giddy, you ask? Well, with all the positive buzz surrounding the upcoming film, the Bothans tell me that the Imagineers over at WDI have been given the go-ahead to move further into blue sky development on an E-Ticket attraction themed to Tron for Disneyland. This isn't a green light for the actual, finalized ride, just the opportunity to explore more extensive designs and concepts. Something tells me late 2012/early 2013 could see the beginning of that long talked about, but continually put off remake of Tomorrowland.

It appears the future is happening now...
