Disney’s live action Beauty and the Beast has already grossed close to $1.2 billion worldwide, and it debuted in theaters less than 3 months ago! The film received rave reviews from critics and fans alike. It somehow managed to retain the magic and aura of the 1991 animated Best Picture nominee (the first ever animated film to receive the honor), all the while breathing new wonder into the timeless story. Given 25+ years to review the original classic, the writers and Director Bill Condon covered up some of the continuity errors, and added a few beautiful new songs to mix alongside some of Disney’s most famous tunes like “Be Our Guest” and the titular number. Featuring a star-studded cast headlined by a radiant Emma Watson and Dan Stevens, Beauty and the Beast was one of my favorite films of 2017 thus far, as well as my 6-year old daughter’s, who loved every minute.
As Disney’s newly released trailer for The BFG says, “Hold your breath, cross your fingers, and here we go,” because adventure awaits. Steven Spielberg‘s most recent directorial effort is an adaptation of the Ronald Dahl novel of the same name that centers on a young girl (newcomer Ruby Barnhill) who finds herself in the world of giants and befriends one of the smallest of the group (Academy Award-winner Mark Rylance).
The trailer for the film provides a little more story than the first. It also expands on the world of the giants and shows us the visually stunning creation that Spielberg will show us this summer. Check out the full trailer here below.
Disney has released a new teaser video for their upcoming film Alice Through the Looking Glass, the long-awaited sequel to Tim Burton’s 2010 epic Alice In Wonderland. The new video features a voiceover by one of the film’s returning stars, the late Alan Rickman, passed away last month.
It’s plainly obvious that Star Wars fans loved what they saw in the newly released trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Even the high anticipated film’s stars John Boyega and Daisy Ridley had emotional responses upon seeing the trailer for the first time.
Now, Disney Studios has posted a new video of another member of the film’s cast reacting to the trailer — BB-8, the new rolling ball droid.
