Frozen Fever - A First Glimpse At The New Frozen Mini-film
Feb 2nd
Whether you’re still singing the Oscar award winning theme song of Frozen, or you’ve long since ‘Let It Go’, if you’re a fan of Disney’s Frozen you’ll probably adore this new news. Elsa, Olaf, Anna, and the rest are back this spring to sing away the cold! In a nearly contradictory name to that cheesy preceding line I wrote, Frozen Fever is the title of a new 7-minute short film featuring the cast of Frozen. Best of all? It has yet another new song by the award winning creative team that wrote ‘Let It Go’, Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. More >
Star Wars Gets A Guardians of the Galaxy Style Trailer
Jun 22nd
I love Star Wars. It is undoubtedly a classic Sci-Fi epic for the ages…but with the exception of a few Tag and Bink moments, Star Wars is serious business. That all said, I have never found Star Wars more humorous than I have recently found it in the new Guardians of the Galaxy style trailer from The Unusual Suspect. Taking a nod from the upcoming Marvel film, Guardians of the Galaxy, and its hilarious trailer done up with late 60′s pop music, The Unusual Suspect has sampled clips and sounds from the original Star Wars trilogy into a hilarious new More >
Spend 24 Hours At Disneyland Once Again
Feb 28th
Since the leap year of 2012, it seems like an annual thing to spend a full 24 hours at Disneyland or Disney World (or both if you’re adventurous and can book the right flight) if you’re a hardcore fan of the Disney Theme Parks in Anaheim, California and Orlando, Florida. Now we get a third year of full day fun at both parks, as Disney announces yet another 24 hour experience in their Disneyland and Disney World resorts. Set for 6AM on May 23rd to 6AM on May 24th, both parks will be open for a full 24 hours, allowing More >
The Fate of the Force in Comics - What Will Happen To Star Wars in 2015?
Jan 3rd
Today’s big comic book news undoubtedly gravitates around the Force, Jedi, and Marvel Comics. Yes, Dark Horse has finally lost the license to Star Wars like many predicted and some even feared, ending their 22 year run later this year. But Marvel is picking up the reigns come 2015 with some undoubtedly interesting plans that they’ve yet to announce. Will Marvel pick up where they left off with their 1980′s Star Wars on-going? Will they continue the stories Dark Horse has been brilliantly presenting in the original trilogy era, the Legacy era, etc? Or will they go an entirely new route? More >
Star Wars Returns To Marvel In 2015
Jan 3rd
“Dark Horse Comics published exceptional Star Wars comics for over 20 years, and we will always be grateful for their enormous contributions to the mythos, and the terrific partnership that we had,” said Carol Roeder, director of Lucasfilm franchise publishing, a part of Disney Publishing Worldwide. But despite this glorification of Dark Horse’s wonderful Star Wars comics, she went on to inform fans that “In 2015, the cosmic adventures of Luke, Han, Leia, and Chewbacca will make the lightspeed jump back to Marvel, to begin a new age of adventures within the Star Wars universe.”

Star Wars Rebels Gets Its First Teaser Trailer
Oct 7th
In the Fall of 2014, what may seem like a season far far away, Star Wars is getting a brand new cartoon series on Disney XD. Titled Star Wars Rebels, the series will be set between the events of Episode III and IV…the dark times, the purge era, the nearly two decade period where the Empire rose to power. This is a time in the Star Wars universe where the Jedi are being hunted down and Darth Vader is coming to the height of his power. We can only imagine the show will show the early years of the Rebel More >
Muppets Most Wanted Trailer
Aug 6th
After twelve long years without a Muppets movie, 2011 pleasantly surprised us with a great return to film for Kermit and his felt and fur covered friends. Now, just a few short years later, we have the Muppets Most Wanted quickly coming to a theater next year, with a planned release date of March 21st, 2014. The film, much like 1981′s The Great Muppet Caper, will deal with a crime the Muppets must solve across the Atlantic, though this film won’t be centered in London as the Muppets travel throughout Europe and Asia. Apparently the Muppets are trying to track More >
Once Upon A Time In Disney World
May 6th
Fans of Once Upon A Time enjoyed a fun Disney World ad during last night’s episode on ABC. The ad might have surprised some watchers, thinking the show had already come back from its commercial break when Lana Parrilla, the actress who plays Regina Mills (The Evil Queen) on the show, appeared on screen. Not only was Parrilla in the commercial for Disney World, but she was playing Regina Mills too! Yes, this great little ad was designed to cross promote both ABC’s popular Once Upon A Time TV series and Disney World’s newly re-imagined Fantasy Land, now called New More >

Viz Brings Back OEL Manga In The Form Of Max Steel
Jan 29th
OEL Manga, or Original English Language Manga, was a title that came to popularity around the mid-2000′s, when American manga company, Tokyopop, started heavily producing North American created comics in the manga style and format. Tokyopop was hardly the first company to do this, but they became one of the most popular and criticized groups for doing such, with over a dozen such titles becoming popular best sellers. But long before Tokyopop, companies like Antarctic Press and Viz were putting out manga created by North American writers and artists. It was a rarer genre of comics, but it did exist. More >
