If you recall how Disney’s Enchanted ended, Giselle (Amy Adams) ended up with her prince (Patrick Dempsey) and a successful career in fashion in the real world, while Adele Dazeem (played by Idina Menzel (I’m joking)) got her man in the animated one. The whole… Read More »Enchanted 2 Signs Scribes Moves Closer to Reality
Ever since Disney bought Lucasfilm, the various properties have been slowly getting assimilated into the Disney way of life. The latest change is the moving of the StarWars.com website from the legacy Lucasfilm platform to a new one based on the Disney.com platform. They’ve also… Read More »A disturbance in the force – StarWars.com Moves to Disney.com Platform
Update: Video of the accident has now been uploaded to YouTube.
Also another angle on Instagram:
Notice how the red light is blinking on the two black cars, that’s an indicator they are in emergency stop mode.

The Lights Motors Action stunt car show at Disney’s Hollywood Studios has been known to have an accident every now and then. It’s a stunt show, things are going to happen. The good news is that Disney and the professional team of stunt people involved in the show work hard to ensure everyone’s safety.
But some times things go wrong like today. Disney fan Tony Caggiano was in the audience at Light’s Motors Action today and just happened to be running a roll of 30 quick frames off on his camera during the big finale when the red hero car jumps out of the building on the back of the set, down a ramp, and then jumps across the water moat at the front.
Not everything went as planned

You can’t blame Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn for being a little wistful as his first big Hollywood studio film wrapped up. As the project consumed the last two years of his life, this is what he had to say on Facebook:
I swear, I’ve gotten angry with filmmakers like Ridley Scott and George Lucas who can’t let go of their old films and want to keep going back and offering up different versions, but I can easily see myself doing that now.
…
There isn’t much left. I’m still playing with the sound mix and the 3D and the DI (digital intermediate – basically the color-timing) – and there are some outstanding visual effects shots. But I still want to do what I can with what I have left to make the most stunning film I can for you guys on August 1! I think the Marvel producers are starting to understand my almost psychotic inability to be happy with anything, and to pick apart things to the very bitter end. They’re going to have to tear this movie from my bloody grip.
Gunn also writes, that he gets “teary-eyed when I think of how I won’t be working with Rocket, at least for a little while.” Does this mean we should bexpect a Guardians 2 announcement sometime soon? Perhaps even at Comic-con?
Like Marvel’s other recent releases, I think Disney expects Guardians to have a significant overseas play. That International poster is interesting for the fact that none of the characters have weapons in their hands unlike the domestic poster. Guess they figure violence does not play well overseas?
For now, we wait until August 1st for the official opening to find out if this film can win over audiences.

It’s a good thing Disney bought Lucasfilm, because otherwise we wouldn’t have a Star Wars themed episode of Phineas and Ferb.
