A group of Disney World fans were invited to watch Monsters University over the weekend. The feedback for Pixar’s next film was general positive, leaning toward effusive. It had the heart of the original, a lot more laughs, and something of a “Revenge of the Nerds” vibe too. Can’t give anything else away without spoilers.

Meanwhile Disney Marketing has been ramping up the promotions for Mike and Sulley. There’s a whole Disney Parks summer promotion and a slew of new trailers and clips online:

Thor The Dark World – First Trailer

Check out this first trailer for Thor: The Dark World, aka Thor 2. There’s a lot riding on this film for Disney and Marvel. We’ve seen that Iron Man and the Avengers can draw wild box office numbers, while the first Thor was just successful. If this film can carry the momentum Marvel has built up over the last year or so, then I think it has a pretty good chance.

The trailer rocks anyway. Let us know what you think in the comments.
