Movie Review: Disney Frozen is Perfect for the Holidays! #DisneyFrozen

Walt Disney Animation Studios, the studio behind “Tangled” and “Wreck-It Ralph,” presents “Frozen,” a stunning big-screen comedy adventure. Last week we previewed the new Disney Frozen movie. Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) and her sister Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel) were the best of friends, and they loved playing together. One day a terrible accident happens, and it will keep them apart. Parts of the movie were sad, but there were also lots of fun and funny moments. I especially enjoyed the heartfelt moments between the sisters. The film is beautiful and nicely done.

Movie Review: Thor – The Dark World Might Be Better Than the First | #FreeLoki #ThorDarkWorld @ThorMovies

Nhi and I thought the movie’s animation and special effects were outstanding, not to mention the humor that came along … READ MORE >>

Disney Planes Merchandise @DisneyD23 #DisneyPlanes #D23Expo #PhotoGallery

Want to meet someone from the production team? Anthony Mai, a recent graduate from Otis College of Art and Design, began his career at Disney Consumer Products as a 3-D Artist in August 2012. Since then, Anthony has worked on creating a “chunky” style of Disney Planes characters for application in product development. Anthony has also worked on numerous projects that have helped bring classic 2-D Disney characters into the 3-D world. I was there briefly, but I thought it was really neat to see some of the behind-the-scenes, and hear him talk about his concepts with fans. Did you see Disney Planes? What did you think of the movie? … READ MORE >>
