Geek of Oz

I came away from Saving Mr. Banks in state of absolute calm. Possibly because the message I took from it is that as a studio, Disney seems to be interested once again in just telling stories. It’s a smaller scale film which boldly wears its Disney-shaped heart on its sleeve. The film looks at both the making of Mary Poppins and the events of author P.L. Travers (Emma Thompson) life which moulded the iconic story. Walt Disney (Tom Hanks) is taking his final shot at wooing P.L. Travers in order to obtain the rights to adapt her story into the classic film that we all know and love (well, you better damn well love). Ms Travers is concerned that her story will be completely destroyed by the process and is hell-bent on rejecting all advances made her way. It’s during this rocky courtship that Travers starts to reflect on her own life and why she is clinging so tightly to her characters. The film is essentially told through two narratives that we flit between by way of flashback...

While we covered news last month that Kingdom Hearts would be getting the HD treatment, we now have a trailer for a proper look. From all accounts, we're looking at an August release locally and if you ask me, August is too far away. Check out the PAX East trailer after the jump!

Wreck it Ralph tells the story of Ralph, Wreck it Ralph. The Donkey Kong to Fix it Felix Jr's Mario, Ralph gets tired of being the bad guy, constantly thrown off his 8-bit tower while Felix receives all the adulation. So tired, in fact, that he LEAVES HIS GAME!  Exploring the world of video games, Ralph finds a whole new universe full of possibilities, more specifically, the possibility to be the good guy for once, the peoples champion.  A star studded affair, Wreck it Ralph is a great school holiday option.

There is nothing that I don't like about this trailer. The visuals, the sound, the cast and the sheer proportions! Oz the Great and Powerful is possibly my most anticipated film of 2013. Follow on after the jump for the all new trailer!

On June the 21st I will be in a cinema, somewhere, giddy like a child waiting for the all new Pixar film, Brave. Let's face facts, Pixar have never made a bad film. Not only is the animation consistently beautiful and increasingly detailed but the stories, the stories are where Pixar put all else to shame. Even without the technical brilliance and animated artistry, a story magical story will shine through. Check out the all new Brave trailer after the jump and don't forget to mark your calendar for June 21st!
