Even though the 3D version made us feel a bit sick, we were still happy to receive the new trailer for Disney’s take on the Rapunzel legend -Tangled.
It looks like a fun, fast and modern toon and there’s some lush animation to back up the decent looking script. it also stars Mandy Moore, who we’re contractually obliged to mention as often as possible.
Enjoy!
There’s still a few months to go before Disney’s Tron:Legacy takes us on another trip into the heart of the murderous MCP, but based on these latest one-sheets the CGI is going to be incredible. Check out those costumes – certainly a step up from the Green Lantern pics released so far. Expect a dark (for Disney) movie full of murderous, fetishistic frisbee…
Toy Story 3
It’s actually tempting to open this review by berating modern Hollywood for their lack of creative nous. While other studios turn out teeth-grindingly inept explosofests like Transformers, Pixar quietly carry out superlative work on films like Toy Story 3, probably the most effective and genuinely touching meditation on the nature of relationships and yep -even that old chestnut mortality – than we’ve seen in many a year, throwing a pretty harsh light on any number of ‘grown-up’ movies out there for their continued lack in both the emotional heft and storytelling departments.
Oh -and it’s sweet and funny too…
Did you eneter our recent comp to win free tickets for Toy Story 3? No? Why not you feckless dog?
Well, the STS office was inundated as literally some of you wrote in, shouting about Potatoes, all of you desperate to coagulate in London’s super-swanky Leicester Square this Sunday morning to catch the continuing adventures of Andy’s toybox a month early -and who can blame you?
We (well…me..it’s not like I have anything better to do…) rummaged through the pile of potato-based commentary and based on a strict selection criteria involving closing my eyes and pointing, a winner emerged – congratulations Katie Richards!
Katie’s weird Kelis/Spud mashup caught our eye (like a potato has eyes- do you see? IT’S A JOKE!) :
MY POTATO BRINGS ALL THE BOYS TO THE YARD AND THEY’RE LIKE … ‘MY PARTS ARE KILLING ME!’
Katie and a friend/partner/pet/kidnapped farm animal get to head down to Leicester Square for a free matinee performance this very Sunday! Congrats and enjoy.
Christ we’re generous around here aren’t we? Although not quite as generous as the lovely dudes and dudettes at Disney who made this possible -give them a big up and join the Toy Story 3 facebook page! and don’t panic, I’m sure we’ll have some other free crap to hurl at you soon -cheers to everyone who entered!
