Waking Sleeping Beauty Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/Feb. 19, 2010 12:45 pm EST Walt Disney Pictures has finally released a movie trailer for Waking Sleeping Beauty. At the Telluride Film Festival last year, I had the opportunity to see this great documentary.

Cool Stuff: “Epic Misney” Disney/Marvel Mash-Up By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 30, 2009 6:00 am EST Ever since it was announced that Marvel Comics was acquired by Disney, artists have been creating art mash-ups. “Epic Misney” by T Campbell and John Waltrip is probably the best and most comprehensive I’ve seen produced (I guess the word Epic is appropriate). The above picture is just a small slice… Check out the full design after the jump....

Deadgirl Scribe Trent Haaga To Direct Chop

Deadgirl Scribe Trent Haaga To Direct Chop By Brendon Connelly/Oct. 26, 2009 3:52 pm EST The last time I mentioned Deadgirl, a rather confrontational horror film written by Troma-vet Trent Haaga, I hadn’t seen it. In the meantime I have done, and I loved it. Of all of the straight-to-DVD films I’ve seen this year*, I’d say Deadgirl is the lead for my favourite. Perhaps I’m a little but biased because I love zombie movies and this was a very skewed and imaginative take on the genre, though there’s no use in denying that it’s a serious film with some smarts and clear intent to say something worth listening to....

Latest How To Train Your Dragon Movie Trailer Hangs On Dreamworks Dubious Animation Legacy

Latest How To Train Your Dragon Movie Trailer Hangs On Dreamworks’ Dubious Animation Legacy By Brendon Connelly/Dec. 29, 2009 2:11 pm EST I can understand Pixar trading on the legacy of the Toy Story films, Monsters Inc. and so on – even Cars, which I know many critics aren’t so kind on – but Dreamworks Animation trying to draw hype out of their back catalogue? Admittedly they’ve put the weight on the more successful Shrek and Madagascar franchises, as well as the actually-rather-good Kung Fu Panda, and not such cine-excrement as Shark Tale or Bee Movie, but isn’t the consensus that the Dreamworks branding on a toon is best taken as a warning, not an encouragement?...
