Posted on by

We’ve already reported that Marvel is considering Guardians of the Galaxy for a big screen adaptation, but when Disney said it bought Marvel for it’s galaxy of stars, I doubt many thought the company meant Big Hero 6. Turns out, Disney is interested in the property as an animated film.

TALK BACK: Brave

Posted on by

It’s been a while since Disney/Pixar released a animated movie that wasn’t A) a sequel and B) hasn’t been hyped as the greatest thing since chocolate ice-cream.  This weekend saw the opening of Brave across the country.

Determined to make her own path in life, Princess Merida defies a custom that brings chaos to her kingdom. Granted one wish, Merida must rely on her bravery and her archery skills to undo a beastly curse.

We want to know what you think.  Did the story twist surprise you?  Did you fall in love with the characters? Or is this something that should be shoved to the back of the closet, never to be talked about again?  Use the comment section below to share your thoughts and reviews about the movie.

SNEAK PEEK: Dark Knight Returns animated movie

Posted on by

I didn’t “get” how powerful comics could be until I read The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller way back in the mid-80s. It is a massive story that seems almost impossible to adapt to a movie, but Warner Home Video is planning to do it with a two part movie coming later this year.

SHORT FILM: Little Quentin

Posted on by

When I saw this pop up on my AppleTV, I knew I had to check it out.  Little Quentin is very good, and if I had to describe it I would say it is Roger Rabbit meets Very Bad Things meets Toy Story.

“TOY STORY!”?

Oh, yeah, you’re gonna want to watch this to the end.
