To add to today's Disney... history... ummm... stuff, there are now rumors of a possible sequel to 2003's Finding Nemo, with a release date of sometime in 2016 after the release of Pixar's upcoming films "Monsters University", "The Good Dinosaur", "The Untitled Pixar Movie That Takes You Inside the Mind", and "The Untitled Dia De Los Muertos Film".
With the Finding Nemo 3-D release in September and the film's Blu-ray release in December, it wouldn't surprise me if we had an announcement fairly soon!!!
2011 is ending, and 2012 is quickly approaching and I've got some awesome blog posts in the works.
Lets take a look at Disney's film lineup this year. On January 13th, "Beauty and the Beast" will be released theatrically in 3-D with the brand-new short film sequel "Tangled Ever After".
"John Carter" comes out March 9th.
On June 15th, Pixar is releasing the short La Luna...
...in theaters with their 13th film "Brave".
Also this summer, the TV show "Tron: Uprising" will premiere.
ON September 14th, Finding Nemo will be re-released in theaters in 3-D.
On October 5th, Tim Burton has another, um, interesting film. It's "Frankenweenie"...
It is a remake/feature-film version of his 1984 short film of the same name.
Finally, on November 2nd, Disney releases it's new CGI adventure, "Wreck-It Ralph".
At the Disneyland resort, 2012 will start off with a bang with World of Color, elecTRONica and themed fireworks. Here is a video of the celebration last year at Disney California Adventure...
California Adventure saw the completion of the expansion of Paradise Pier last year with the new attractions "The Little Mermaid - Ariel's Undersea Adventure"...
and the re-themed Mulholland Madness attraction "Goofy's Sky School".
The park also saw one big mess...
that led to a brand new entrance...
...and the start of construction on Buena Vista Street...
Which will be the new entrance area of the park. It will open this summer.
Disneyland Park had a "Soundsational" Summer...
with the new parade "Mickey's Soundsational Parade"...
...and "Star Tours: the Adventures Continue" in 3-D.
Next summer, the California Adventure expansion will be complete with the opening of "Cars Land"...
...and "Buena Vista Street".
There are lots of exciting things happening in the world of Disney soon.
This February, Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace will be released in theaters in 3-D.
...and Part 1 of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit Films will be out this December.
In July, Glenn beck is holding his "Restoring Love" event in Dallas, Texas.
THEN, after ALL of that, the world will end in December.
Disneyland may even end up looking something like this...
Lets, uh, sure hope not, but I guess we'll see what happens after the Presidential Election in November...
(Isn't that one of the creepiest pics of him ever?!?!?!?)
Yup. Cars 2 is out on DVD and Blu-Ray today. Complete with the Toy Story Toon "Hawaiian Vacation" and the brand new Cars Toon "Air Mater". Let's see what is on Pixar's slate of upcoming projects...
Let's just hope that Pixar does better with "Brave" next summer...
It is due out June 15th with a brand new short film "La Luna".
Then, Disney has a World of Cars spin-off film called "Planes".
I'm not sure what to think about that yet, but hopefully it's good! (Anyone see the "113" on one of the planes? I wonder if that was a reference to something... A113 maybe?)
This month, on the 23rd, the new Toy Story Toon "Small Fry" will be in theaters with "The Muppets".
Several films are scheduled for releases in Digital 3-D on the big screen. The two most recently announced are 2003's Finding Nemo on September 14th 2012...
...and 2001's Monster's Inc.
Monster's Inc. will be released January 18th 2013, right before its prequel...
in June of the same year.
Also announced are 3 untitled films. An "Untitled Dinosaur Project" due out November 27th 2013, an "Untitled Inside the Mind Project" directed by Pete Doctor due out in 2014, and an untitled film directed by Lee Unkrich in 2015.
Pixar's got one heckuva busy schedule! I can't wait for what's coming!
Disney has released this teaser for the imminent release of Finding Nemo on Hi-Def Blu-Ray Disc.
This is interesting because Finding Nemo has been on the list of upcoming Blu-Ray releases for a LOOOOOONG time. It is the last classic Pixar film waiting to be released on Blu-Ray.
Still no release date has been announced, but I suspect that it will cooincide with it's theatrical release in September...
