Upcoming Pixar Short: ‘Lava’

After moving The Good Dinosaur to 2015, the next Pixar feature film will be Inside Out.

Both images from Disney Insider.

(And quick side note, that means this is the first year without a Pixar feature film since 2005…)

Just announced, the short to play before Inside Out will be titled Lava.  Below is the official synopsis:

Inspired by the isolated beauty of tropical islands and the explosive allure of ocean volcanoes, Lava is a musical love story that takes place over millions of years.

Lava is to be directed by James Ford Murphy.

What do you think?  I’m curious about the “musical love story that takes place over millions of years” part, but Pixar has always created phenomenal short films, so I’m not at all worried!

See you all real soon.

My WDW Trip Update: Content Coming Soon!

We went to Walt Disney World on Tuesday-Thursday, with Wednesday being our all-day Magic Kingdom day.

I took lots of videos, Bestie and her mom took lots of photos, and I did my best to keep my Instagram and Twitter filled.

Of course, it will take me a little bit to go through all the content, but I'm planning on having lots of posts and YouTube videos for you all!  In fact, I've decided to start a Flickr account for all the photos we took.

Give me a few days and then I'll blow up your feeds!

Thanks!

‘Frozen’ Pre-Parade Float at Disneyland!

In WDW's Festival of Fantasy parade, Anna, Elsa and Olaf appear at the end of the princess float, the first in the parade.  The trio was added last minute due to Frozen’s unexpected popularity.

At Disneyland, the trio was just given their own pre-parade float in front of Mickey’s Soundsational Parade.

Here are three videos of the float’s debut.

My thoughts?  Since I love these three to death (no surprise there), I’m excited for them to get their own float and everything, but it’s kind of disappointing.  Of course, it’s merely a pre-parade float, but I was kind of hoping for some singing, not just instrumental. The design is beautiful, but Olaf wasn't quite as animated as I expected.  No mouth movement at all?

However, I am hoping that this pre-parade signals their expansion in the Festival of Fantasy parade.

Your thoughts?

I'm in Florida!

We landed in Orlando around 1 pm (EST) on Friday.



We'll be in Walt Disney World Tuesday night and all day Wednesday.  Until then, we're enjoying the beach right outside Bestie's family's condo.

Keep up with our adventures by following the hashtag #MollyInFlorida or #MollyTheDisneyFreak on either Twitter or Instagram.

The True Meaning of ‘Let it Go’?

Today, I present to you another “Let it Go” cover.

I know what you’re thinking: “Ugh, not another one!?”

Hold on there.  This is a different kind of cover.

It’s (almost) the truth behind the meaning of “Let it Go” (like what I did there, Frank?)

Dewey Roth and his wife, Debbie.

Now you’re interested?

First, let me give you some backstory.  My friend/mentor Dewey Roth is one of the funniest people I know.  I first met him at Giant Step Theatre, where he was choreographer/director/actor/"Stupid Stories" teller…what was your title anyway, Dewey?

He writes a blog called Almost the Truth, in which he discusses, well, almost the truth about things.

And there’s always a touch of humor.

Now, without further ado, here is Dewey’s interpretation of the true meaning of the “Let it Go” lyrics.

Enjoy! (You will.)

TV Guide’s Battle of the Fans: Favorite Villain!

It’s not often I post about Once Upon a Time, but hey.

Regina/the Evil Queen was just voted the “Favorite Villain” for TV Guide magazine in their Battle of the Fans Facebook contest!

Image from TV Guide's Facebook page.

I actually really like Regina’s character (at least, what I’ve seen and heard of her).  Would probably say she’s my favorite character on OUAT.

Who’s your favorite OUAT character?  Is Regina your favorite TV villain?

See you all real soon.
