The eccentric, inspiring, funny, and colorful world of Zootopia is coming to Blu-ray and DVD!

5/29/2016

Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Wildly Witty, Vibrant World of 'Zootopia' Arrives Home on June 7 via Digital HD, Blu-ray™ and Disney Movies Anywhere

Picture
Zootopia is a place where imagination takes a life of its own. It's an original animation where diversity exists. Highlighted lightly, the elements of bullying, racism, discrimination and stereotypes are alive in this animation, showing that change starts with all of us and in order to do so we must all look inside ourselves. This adventure keeps you on the edge of your seat, where solving a mystery becomes your task too as an audience. Zootopia shows the results of classifying and creating stereotypes and how it affects those involved. It all concludes in an unforeseen turn of events. But returning to relive the world of Zootopia is one thing you'll want to do again and again. 

Bonus features include:

ON BLU-RAY 3D, BLU-RAY & DIGITAL HD:
Zoology: The Roundtables – Ginnifer Goodwin hosts an in-depth look at the movie’s characters, animation, environments and more. The artists at Disney Animation give a rare and in-depth look at the complexities of bringing an all-animal world to life from the ground-breaking technology behind the characters’ fur and clothing to the varied and vast environments of Tundratown, Sahara Square and the Rainforest District as well as the deep thought and research given to bringing 64 unique animal species to life through animation.
The Origin of an Animal Tale – Follow the story’s development from its origins to a big story shift that turned the film upside down. In this feature-length documentary, filmmakers give a candid look into the difficulties of creating the story of Zootopia and the bold decision to switch the main character late in the production process, putting one resolute rabbit center stage.
Research: A True-Life Adventure – The filmmakers traveled the globe to find inspiration for the diverse characters and amazing city of Zootopia. They reflect on the importance of research and how a deep dive into animal behavior at Disney Animal Kingdom theme park and a deep immersion into animal society on the African savanna shaped and inspired the characters of Zootopia and changed the filmmakers’ lives forever.
Z.P.D. Forensic Files – Find the movie’s hidden Easter Eggs. Every city has its hidden gems, especially when it has been created by the filmmakers of Disney Animation who love nothing more than sprinkling hidden references to some of Disney’s greatest animated features throughout the story. 
Scoretopia – Academy Award®-winning composer, Michael Giacchino spotlights five of cinema’s greatest percussionists and how they brought an organic, animalistic sound to his powerful and emotional music score.
Deleted Characters – Directors Byron Howard and Rich Moore introduce citizens of Zootopia who did not make the final cut.

THE BIGGEST DRUG CARTEL, ONE MAN, HIS STORY. THAT IS THE STORY OF 'THE INFILTRATOR,' TRAILER ENCLOSED.

5/25/2016

0 Comments

 

BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF ONE MAN AGAINST
THE BIGGEST DRUG CARTEL IN HISTORY 

Picture
Written by Ellen Brown Furman, The Infiltrator is based on one of the biggest drug cartels in history. Directed by Brad Furman, this true story follows federal agent Robert Bob Mazur (Bryan Cranston) as he goes deep undercover to infiltrate Pablo Escobar's drug trafficking scene plaguing the nation in 1986 by posing as slick, money-laundering businessman Bob Musella. Teamed with impulsive and streetwise fellow agent Emir Abreu (John Leguizamo) and rookie agent posing as his fiancé Kathy Ertz (Diane Kruger), Mazur befriends Escobar's top lieutenant Roberto Alcaino (Benjamin Bratt). Navigating a vicious criminal network in which the slightest slip-up could cost him his life, Mazur risks it all building a case that leads to indictments of 85 drug lords and the corrupt bankers who cleaned their dirty money, along with the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the largest money-laundering banks in the world.

The film also stars Yul Vazquez, Joseph Gilgun, Olympia Dukakis and Amy Ryan.

With an exceptional cast and one compelling story, The Infiltrator is one film we're gonna want to watch. Meanwhile, we have a solid trailer to get our hearts pumping. 

The Infiltrator is set to release in theaters July 13th.

'ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS' TEA PARTY

5/25/2016

‘Alice Through the Looking Glass’ is a Fantastical Adventure

Picture
An evolving journey of discovery and understanding  Alice Through the Looking Glass is an extraordinary fantastical adventure.
After traveling as sea captain for what should've been a year, Alice returns to London as a fearless young woman. This time around she is her own person. She’s grown. But coming back home, she faces the truth of the people she left behind. No dream can be accomplished without a cost. On her return as Alice, Mia Wasikowska expressed,
“I just love that she has a really strong sense of who she is… she’s able to kind of hold on to that she’s worth more than what other people want her to be.”
​
​​In this sequel to Alice in Wonderland we are introduced to new characters, including Mad Hatter’s father (played by Rhys Ifans) and Time himself. Described as a peculiar creature, Time (Sacha Baron Cohen) is part human and part clock. This “nonsensical” character brings up a lot of sensical thoughts and as director James Bobin pointed out is the ‘theme of the film.’ Bobin, who joined the franchise as a fan, shared his familiarity with the original stories of Alice by Lewis Carroll. “I wanted to pay tribute to him in a sense that if he saw it he would appreciate it.” He also explained he tried to incorporate some of Lewis and himself while “still maintaining the Tim [Burton] world.” Burton stayed on as producer to the film. 
Picture
Returning producer Suzanne Todd specified the difficulty of making these films. She explained they went back into the literature and turned the idea into a full length feature. “We really focused on what you see in the movie, which is time and the preciousness of time and spending time with loved ones. And also what a pretty kick ass girl can do if she sets her mind to it.” Something Anne Hathaway confessed she’s very proud of. “I was bursting with pride to be in a movie that’s taking the narrative back.” A narrative that is fully explained after watching the film.
​

TAKING BACK THE NARRATIVE

Picture
She shared a moment in which she found herself crying during the film where Alice is ‘diagnosed with typical female hysteria.’ She proposed an invitation for all of us “to stop the narrative of saying that women lose power as they get older.” She said, “Take the narrative back the way Alice does.”
it.

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

​On new discoveries, we finally understand the truth behind Mirana, The White Queen (Anne Hathaway) and her sister Iracebeth, The Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter).  We see a side of Iracebeth we’ve never seen before and the answer to why Mirana takes the ‘kindness vow.’ On her character Anne said, “It was nice to know that like everyone she’s got a past and she has regrets. She feels pain. She feels guilt. And you forget about these things. So I actually was really thrilled that we were kind of trying to see what the emotions were like for these characters that look so fantastical but feel so relatable.”

Just like the characters in Through the Looking glass, the view of has also evolved. A confident Alice is free to say and wear what she feels best.  On the costumes, designed by Colleen Atwood, Mia confessed that while ‘Colleen is a brilliant designer, she’s also brutal’ when it comes to wearing layers and heavy material. “But in this one I got to wear a lot of trousers.” Alice wears “a suit at the beginning and at the end.” She adds, “They were a lot more accessible.” Hathaway said that while she ‘wore no trousers she love it.’ The White Queen was fully evolved with the costume. Hathaway explains, “Colleen’s costume probably created my character… and then as soon as I put on the dress it was like ‘oh she's there.’”
​Alice Through the Looking Glass not only takes you deeper into the journey of wonderland. It brings hope and understanding that you can believe in the impossible because you can make it possible. The theme of time is timeless and resonates with all ages.

Disney’s Alice Through the Looking Glass  opens nationwide this Friday, May 27!
