Update: Free “The Incredibles” offer is over. New reward is nicely done copy of the original sheet music for Mary Poppins’ “Let’s Go Fly A Kite” when you buy copy of “Saving Mr. Banks.” Details on the Disney Movie’s Anywhere site.
At first I wasn’t interested in Disney Movie Anywhere, I had heard that it was only for ipad, iphone, and itouch owners. Those of use who don’t own an iOS 7 capable device, were out of luck. But I was wrong. We ‘alternate’ service users can still view videos (including a few exclusive titles) for free on the website (which isn’t really anywhere, but better than nowhere). But I’m getting ahead of myself.
What is Disney Movie’s Anywhere? It’s a new digital movie service and app that gives you cloud-based access to your library of digital Disney movies anywhere. For now, you can get movies you’ve downloaded via iTunes or Disney’s digital locker and add them to the service. Those who download the all-new app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch can discover, purchase, manage, and watch movies from Disney, Pixar, and Marvel to watch at home and on the go. Just activate today and connect your Disney Movies Anywhere account to your iTunes account and you will receive a free digital copy of Disney•Pixar’s classic “The Incredibles.” (offer is only good for a limited time )
“Disney Movies Anywhere offers an exceptional consumer experience built around some of the most beloved and popular entertainment brands in the world,” said Alan Bergman, President, The Walt Disney Studios. “This unique technology underscores Disney’s commitment to meeting our consumers where they are with the content they want, and we’re thrilled to debut with iTunes, the #1 digital media retailer in the world.”
I have been very curious to see where the Disney Kingdoms comic line goes after their trip to the Museum of the Weird.
Marvel has announced, with one little spark of inspiration, that they will be taking a journey into imagination with their next five-issue story starring Figment (ok, bad puns over).
Figment #1 is debuting on June 4 with Jim Zub penning the story and Filipe Andrade as the artist.
“I was contacted out of the blue by editor Bill Rosemann at Marvel,” Zub recounts. “He’s been handling the Disney Kingdoms comics and, with so many fantasy projects under my belt and with magic and whimsy showing up in other stories I’ve written, he felt I’d be a good fit to pitch on FIGMENT. So far I’m doing my best to prove him right.”
Marvel released a clip from the special, “Assembling A Universe” yesterday. On the one hand, I am really looking forward to taking a step back and seeing the bigger picture of the MCU through interviews and behind the scenes footage going all the way back… Read More »First Promo for Marvel’s Assembling A Universe
Last week, the team went on mission to find a way to save Skye’s life. Led by Coulson and Ward’s former S.O., John Garrett, they find the Guest House, where Coulson was during his questionable resurrection process.
They find a substance called GH-325 that was used on Coulson that allowed his cells to begin regenerating. As the team rushes back to give it to Skye, our favorite S.H.I.E.L.D. agent delves deeper into the Guest House and discovers a room labeled T.A.H.I.T.I. (because, apparently, someone really wanted their initials to spell “Tahiti”). In the room, Coulson finds a large container labeled “GH” that contains the top half of a human-like form where the GH formulas are being pumped from.
Speculation is all over the internet as to what that thing was, my favorite theory is that it is a Kree, an alien race that could open up a world of storytelling possibilities including a tie in to Guardians of the Galaxy.
Coulson tries to stop his team from injecting Skye with the mystery liquid but doesn’t make it in time. After a momentary seizure, Skye seems to have stabilized and is a little farther away from the edge of danger.Read More »Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Preview – episode 15: Yes Men

Encouraging kids to brush their teeth for the right amount of time is key in promoting good oral health, and this interactive app challenges kids to complete two minutes of brushing.
With the movie less than a month away, the promotion will be coming at us with more heat than Director Fury on a bad hair day (he’s bald, they’re all bad hair days).
