Geek of Oz

In 20 years or so, "extreme" sports have gone from being entertainment for the teen fringe of society to a multi billion dollar industry where sponsorship dominates, proving that it has finally hit the mainstream.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your Tangled mess! Tangled: the upcoming Disney CGI feature film based on the classic fairytale Rapunzel. Due for release in Australia on the 6th of January in Disney 3D.

I'm a massive Disney fan and needless to say, I'm really looking forward to this one.
