Further In To Persia...

A new short film is out from Walt Disney Pictures about the new "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" film...

This one focuses on Dastan somewhat more and gives you some behind the scenes looks at what the Mouse hopes will be its next franchise.

There's a reason for that subtitle, you know...

Magic Lives On, But The Magician Passes...

Dreamers do, but dreams don't...




On this day, fourty-three years ago, Walter Elias Disney passed from this world into the next.

The night before he had been visited by his brother, Roy Disney. Roy was relieved that his brother said he was feeling better and presumed that things would be taking a turn for the better. Walt even talked about work and returning to the studio, which he could see just outside the window of his hospital room after asking the nurses to turn his bed facing that way. He passed away the next morning. To the shock of everyone and the sorrow of his brother and family.

The Dreamer passed away, but the dream lived on and still does to this day...

Best Film Of 2009...

A nice start...





Time Magazine is out with their Top 10 List of Everything and in it is the Top 10 List of Films as well...

1. The Princess and the Frog
2. Up
3. Fantastic Mr. Fox
4. The Hurt Locker
5. Up in the Air
6. The White Ribbon
7. A Single Man
8. Of Time and the City
9. District 9
10. Thirst

So the top two were films from the Mouse. And the top one was from Disney's animation unit. Nice. I'll have my own comments/review of "The Princess and the Frog" later this week. But it's nice that the first hand-drawn film from WDAS in over half a decade has received glowing reviews and Time considers it the number one film of the year. Take that, Michael Eisner!

Now, work on "Rapunzel" steadily moves on...

The Evolution Of Legacy...

Wanna get a sense of what "Tron Legacy" will look like? Then you might want to take a look at this trailer for one of the games you're going to see coming out next year when the film drops into theaters.

Tron Evolution.

This is the prequel to the film from Disney Interactive. And you get to play it. Take a look at the trailer, it teases with images of what we might expect when we go in to see Flynn again.

Game on...

A Clash Of Cultures...

Nice...






Wow, I kinda like this...

I was wary of this new "Clash of the Titans" remake as it seems that they're remaking everything that has ever been made. But when I heard Lawrence Kasdan was writing the script I sensed a bright spot. He's been rewritten since his draft was turned in by Travis Beacham; who is working on Disney's remake of "The Black Hole" and writers Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi unfortunately. But the vibe on this continues to grow. The pics so far have got me mildly positive about this film, but this poster is rather swanky if you ask me. I'll always wanted my own flying horse.

See this poster and a few awesome banner/stills over at Yahoo! Movies

Here Pegasus, here boy...

Games Begin...

There's a programmer out there somewhere...








Walt Disney Pictures has released the first "official" teaser poster for the "Tron Legacy" film...

You can find a hi-res version and a pic from the film over here.

Apprentice Magically Appears...

The teaser trailer for Walt Disney Pictures "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" has gone online...

Interesting. It ain't the short from "Fantasia" of course, but I really wouldn't want it to be. I'll be interested in seeing more come about about this as its release approaches. Also, the official website has gone live as well, so see it here. Seeing Nick Cage in motion in the trailer doesn't look nearly as bad as those photos that we saw earlier in the year(the ones from Matrix 4). He ain't no Yen Sid.

But I really wouldn't want him to be...
