ALEXANDER AND THE TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY BAD DAY

Disney’s “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”follows the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life—a day that begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by one calamity after another. But when Alexander tells his upbeat family about the misadventures of his disastrous day, he finds little sympathy and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him. He soon learns that he’s not alone when his mom (Jennifer Garner), dad (Steve Carell), brother (Dylan Minnette) and sister (Kerris Dorsey) all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Anyone who says there is no such thing as a bad day just hasn't had one.

Disney's Monsters University open this June



Mike Wazowski, Sulley and the gang are returning to theaters this summer in Monsters University. 

About Monsters University


 Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he has dreamed of becoming a Scarer—and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (voice of John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer. The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. To make matters worse, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.

"Little Red Wagon" Movie Review


Recently I  was given the opportunity to preview the movie Little Red Wagon.  This is a very inspirational movie for children and parents.   I love the courage that Zach had to help others and to understand how they might feel being homeless.  The producers and writers of "Little Red Wagon" really show you the struggles that homeless families face and how a little help goes a long way.

About:
"Little Red Wagon is based on the inspirational true story of eight-year-old Zach Bonner on his quest to change the world with nothing more than his beat-up red wagon and a blazing spirit of philanthropy. When Zach sets out to help homeless children in America in the wake of Hurricane Charley, by walking from his house in Tampa, Florida to the White House, he must overcome bureaucrats and blisters, and capture the hearts of his fractured family and the entire nation. "

(Directed by David Anspaugh from “Rudy”& ; “Hoosiers”, Starring Zach Bonner and Anna Gunn (Breaking Bad) 


I was happy to find out that this movie is based on a true story.  This a a family movie, but probably the message would be best suited for children 8 and older.  "Little Red Wagon opens in theaters on October 5th.

Coming Soon Brave from Disney Pixar




This summer Disney Pixar's Brave will hit theaters.  Here is a little peak of what you will see.



Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Witch (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.

The film takes aim at theaters on June 22, 2012, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.




Walt Disney Studios Presents Frankenweenie in Theaters October 5th

Being a huge fan of Tim Burton movies I was excited when Walt Disney Studios announced "Frankenweenie" a new film from creative genius Tim Burton (“Alice in Wonderland,” The Nightmare Before Christmas”).  


 “Frankenweenie,” is a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life—with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor’s fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new “leash on life” can be monstrous.

A stop-motion animated film, “Frankenweenie” will be filmed in black and white and rendered in 3D, which will elevate the classic style to a whole new experience.
