Disney and Pixar are back for more

Ok, so I'm not really sure if it's ok for me to like cartoons being that I'm at the age of 21, but I have to tell you when Disney and Pixar get together to make a movie, I can't help but go and watch it. Well the fearsome twosome are at it again. After the release of their smash hit Ratatouille which brought in over $200 million, the gang will now shift from Paris to space.

The newest movie to be added to the ranks is Wall-E, the story about a robot who is literally, the last thing alive on earth. The story takes place in the future when humans have destroyed the planet. To solve the problem of cleaning up all the junk they create cleaner robots. The humans leave earth in hopes of returning. The problem occurs when the programming fails, and the robot program fails. Well, that is, all except for Wall-E, whose programming didn't fail. Watch out ladies and gentlemen, he's a one man cleaning crew. The surprising thing is this is actually a love story about Wall-E and another robot named EVE who was sent back to earth to see what was happening.

Disney showed off their first trailer way back in June , allowing it to follow the common trail of being advertised during the premier of their newest creation. Their brand new trailer, which was freshly released on October 1st, gives viewers a slightly better view of what the movie will look like. Disney has also slapped in a nice little advertisement in the beginning of the Ratatouille video game introducing the movie in an infomercial style about the Wall-E robots. The advertisement prompts you to visit the corporations site at Buy N Large to find out more about their Wall-E line of robots. I highly recommend checking out this site. You can tell Disney and Pixar definitely put out a pretty penny to make this extremely nice site.

Check out the preview below of the newest Wall-E trailer. I have to admit, the little guys is pretty cool so I think this will be another movie I will have to kidnap my little cousins for to go and see (that way I don't look weird in a movie theater full of ten year olds. Everyone wins in this situation).

Lets Head Back Through the Wardrobe...

Disney and Walden Media have officially released the poster for their newest Chronicles of Narnia film, Prince Caspian. Although this film is originally the fourth book in the chronological order of the series, Disney and WM have decided to produce it next to adhere to the aging of the actors as well as try to follow the storyline C.S. Lewis intended.

The four Pevensie siblings once again find themselves in the enchanted lands of Narnia 1300 years after they left. The land they once knew and loved has been destroyed and it is up to them, along with the help of Prince Caspian, to tip the scales of good and evil.

The movie was originally intended to be released in December of 2007 but was pushed back to the summer of 2008 after conflicts arose. Walden Media will be releasing another movie entitled The Water Horse which was originally supposed to open around the same time as the Narnia movie. Since the company did not want its two movies competing at the box office, they figured that Narnia would have a good of shot if any in the summer running after becoming the number one selling DVD in 2006.
As part of their beginning marketing tactics, Disney opened up its door to run a fanart contest in which internet users could submit their doodles for the film. For a preview of all the fantastic work, click here.

Disney and Walden Media have also announced their intentions of beginning the filming of the Voyage of the Dawn Treader hopefully before the big Hollywood Strike takes effect. Supposibly the contracts had with Screen Actors Guild, Directors Guild, and Writer Guild will all end sending Hollywood into a scramble to produce movies. The companies hopeful release date for this movie will be one year later in May of 2009. Walden Media has also made the fourth movie in the series, The Silver Chair, top priority.

Its no doubt that the release of the poster is just the tip of the iceberg for these movies. With powerful funders behind them like Disney and Walden Media, items such as action figures, books, and DVD collectors items will be pushed onto the shelves in no time. I for one am excited for the movies since I was read them as a child, and am looking forward to all the Narnia movies Disney and Walden Media can shove in my face.
