Into the Woods

Hello Disney Freaks! 

Disney's new live-action film "Into the Woods" is going to be released in just three days! "Into the Woods" is a musical new to the Disney studios, but not new to the stage! The show "Into the Woods" has been a live performance on stage since since 1986, and debuted of Broadway in 1987. Thanks to the brilliant mind of Stephen Sondheim, the music and lyrics to the show is phenomenal, and hardly any of the songs seam to repeat a tune. Each of Sondheim's songs have a unique and captivating tune and rhythm that displays brilliantly the character who is performing the piece. The film adaption, directed by Rob Marshall, is most definitely anticipated my both Disney and musical theater nerds across the globe. The film illustrates the fairy tale stories of classic folk tales, and is starring some of Hollywood's most talented performers such as Meryl Streep as the Witch, Anna Kendrick as Cinderella, Johnny Depp as the Wolf, Emily Blunt as the Baker's Wife, and many more talented actors on the screen and on the stage! Come see your favorite bed time stories retold in a whole new way that will transform your childhood dreams into a reality that touches the heart.

Disney: Why it's magical

I have been spending allot of time in Disneyland lately, and I've come to wonder why Disneyland is so magical! I mean, beyond any other form of entertainment or amusement, Disney seems to be the only one to have obtained the ultimate element...MAGIC!

It's all in the detail! Disney undoubtedly waists no time when it comes to details. From the hidden mickeys, to the character-based bathroom stalls, everything has a theme! 

You can experience every element of adventure all in one place! I am at my most joyous state when I can be rescued by Indiana Jones and explore uncharted galaxies all in one day! Not to mention being a princess and a pirate all at once! Living every second of the day with adventure is magic... pure magic! And you can only experience it all through Disney!

The music! The music is the happy thought that makes you fly with a pinch pixie dust! In no other genre of music can you feel all the extreme emotions of love, bravery, joy, and adventure! It's all of our dreams rolled into one soundtrack! 

Disney movies are the pixie dust that allows all of the magic to take flight! It's hard to explain why this one is magical, but it undoubtedly is. It's just something you cant explain, but it brings tears of joy in the nostalgia of growing up a Disney kid and of the memories and love it has brought and continues to bring to you and your family.

Well that's all for tonight folks! Though I could rave about Disney all night long it's time I bid you a good night filled with dreams and pixie dust!
God Bless!
"All it takes is faith and trust, and a little bit of pixie dust!

Guardians of the Galaxy



Hey Disney Freaks! Well its been a long time, but my Summer started to kick off and so did the Summer Box Office! On August first, Disney-Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" premiered, and I finally had the priveledge of seeing it. Uncertain of how this unique film would be, I viewed the film and was not at all disappointed. The movie was an action film, but did not lack any comedy. In fact, this film probably contained the most comedy ever as compared to the other Marvel films aside from Iron Man. The soundtrack, filled with oldies by Micheal Jackson and other famous artist of 70's, made the movie fun, exciting, and even somewhat nostalgic for those who grew up with the classics. The film features actor Chris Pratt as the main character "Star-Lord", who is accompanied by well known actors Vin Diesel, Lee Pace, Dave Batista and actress Zoe Saldana as his Galaxy action Gang. The funny and advernturous film will leave you wanting to see the movie again and again. (Spoiler alert: Watch for dancing baby Groot! It will be the highlight of your life!)

Until next time Disney Freaks!
And remember to always live a life full of ADVENTURE!
