Movie Trailer: Toy Story 3 (Full Trailer)
The long awaited trailer to Toy Story 3 is out! I’m interested to see where this goes. Looks like Andy is off to college and Woody, Buzz and all the toys end up in a Day Care.
The plot seems kind of thin here, not sure where they’ll go with it. But, I trust Pixar 100% and am looking forward to taking my kids to see this opening weekend!

Marvel + Disney = Twisted Princesses? (We Can Dream)
With all the talk of Disney buying Marvel, you know this is what you’re secretly hoping for. Dark, twisted versions of the Disney Princesses!
As imagined by illustrator Jeffrey Thomas, these pictures are pretty awesome. These were drawn before the infamous buy-out, but we all can dream, right?
Check out the pics after the jump:

Disney Theme Parks Cut “Roller Coaster Photo Boob Checker” Jobs
Because of the economy, Disney Theme Parks no longer are employing the “Roller Coaster Boob Checker.” This is the person that gets paid to look through all the pictures taken on the drops to check and see if any females drop their tops. Those pictures usually get removed so young eyes don’t see boobies at the family oriented park.
Well, now the potential to see boobs at Disneyland has increased. Depending on the person, that will either be a good thing or a bad thing. Our planned family trip to Disneyland for my 4 year old’s birthday just got more interesting.

Movie Review: Bolt
Rating: 
Directed By: Byron Howard and Chris Williams
Written By: Dan Fogelman and Chris Williams
Starring: John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman, Mark Walton, Malcolm McDowell
Plot Synopsis:
Bolt tells the story a dog who plays a heroic pup in a hit TV show and has some trouble recognising that he is in fact not possessed of extraordinary powers beyond the ability to lick his own nether regions. This becomes something of a hindrance when he is accidentally shipped from Hollywood to New York City. From there he has to make his way home with only the help of a manky old cat and an overweight hamster in a plastic ball. John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman and Mark Walton provide voices. (Trailer Addict)
Review:
Disney Animation has been in a bit of a slump recently. Their last non-Pixar Computer Animated Chicken Little was a turd, and other than direct to DVD sequels to their classics we haven’t seen much. So, much to my surprise, along comes Bolt. This is the first non-Pixar movie that is up to par in quality with The Incredibles; a fun, action packed and funny little movie. Of course, Bolt was executive produced by Pixar’s John Lasseter. So Bolt can be a distant cousin of a Pixar movie.
