I Hear They’re Making a Live Action Jungle Book Movie

And here’s the proof! It’s trailer time!

Looks pretty cool. I don’t know if the animals are going to sing or not. I haven’t seen the Jungle Book cartoon since I was a kid. All I know is that I like movie trailers.

So Much Star Wars News!

Disney held their annual super-expo the other day, and among other awesome things, they revealed a ton of new Star Wars news! Being a big Star Wars fan, that seemed like a pretty swell thing to me.

First up, they released this awesome new poster for The Force Awakens, by artist Drew Struzan, who drew famous posters for the other movies!

So wait, the stormtrooper guy from the trailer now has a lightsaber? So much for my Stormtrooper Jedi fan-fic!

Looks pretty cool!

As for the other news? Disney has decided to build new Star Wars-themed additions to their theme parks! Both Disney World is Florida and Disneyland in California will be getting giant additions, multiple acres worth. People are calling them the biggest ever additions at Disney parks!

It's good to see that the Falcon will actually fly

These new additions will involve a new alien world, full of lush greenery, Star Wars-style buildings, and probably a 50s era diner populated by aliens and droids. Amiright?

There’s also going to be a ride based on the Millennium Falcon, and if this picture is to be believed, maybe a full-sized replica? That would be amazing!

Oh wait, this is probably just concept art

My family are huge Disney fans. I’ve been to Disney World three times in my life, and I have fine memories of each time. We’re definitely going to have to make plans to visit this new Star Wars park when it’s done. Maybe my parents will have grandchildren by then!

Glorious, glorious concept art

Sorry for the Long Weekend, Here’s Everything Wrong with The Incredibles!

I love The Incredibles! It’s still my favorite Pixar movie. But Cinema Sins isn’t going to go easy on it!

Sorry about the long weekend! I was at the Boston Comic-Con, spreading the good word about my comic, Gamer Girl & Vixen. It was a nice trip, met some great people, and I love comics even more now! Good times all around!

Also, tune in later today for the first full trailer for the Deadpool movie!

The Five Stages of Watching a Pixar Movie

Thank you, Only Leigh!

I saw Inside Out the other weekend and it was very good. Not one of Pixar’s best, but still an awesome flick. Unique premise, fun characters, great ending, quality bits of humor and emotion; solid Pixar all around. Of course, considering it came in at #2 behind Jurassic World (which I also saw), probably means that we’re going to get three more highly profitable Cars sequels before we get another really good Pixar movie.

Sigh.

We’re All Excited for Avengers: Age of Ultron; All of Us

Tonight is the night, people! I’m going to see the early Thursday night showing of Avengers: Age of Ultron! I am beyond excited. Beyond thrilled. Beyond anticipating a great movie! And I’m not the only one, thanks to this nifty mash-up between Age of Ultron and Inside Out!

Apparently Pixar made this mash-up themselves. Good on them! It’s a lot of fun.

Expect my movie review by Sunday, probably. I may see the movie again a few times this weekend, but I’ll try to squeeze in some time to write a review.
