Disney's Maleficent Starring Angelina Jolie in theaters March 14

Just Announced:

Disney's Maleficent Starring Angelina Jolie in theaters March 14

"The Walt Disney Studios has announced a U.S. release date of March 14, 2014, for Maleficent, starring Angelina Jolie in the title role as Disney’s ultimate villain. The live-action film explores the origins of the evil fairy Maleficent and what led her to curse Princess Aurora in Disney’s animated classic Sleeping Beauty." 

"Leading a team of visionary filmmakers known for creating and transporting audiences to new and exciting worlds, Academy Award®-winning production designer Robert Stromberg (Avatar, Disney’s Alice in Wonderland and Oz The Great and Powerful) will direct with a script by Linda Woolverton (Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, and Alice in Wonderland). Maleficent is produced by Joe Roth (Disney’s Alice in Wonderland and Oz The Great and Powerful)."

Do you think Angelina will make a good Maleficent? Who would you like to see play Princess Aurora? Will True Love's Kiss be enough to awaken the Princess from the spell that Angelina will curse her with?

Disney Pop! Vinyl Figures give Vinylmations some Competition

If you haven't been to the Disney Store lately, you are missing out on a new collectible item that is giving the popular Vinylmations a run for their money! Introducing POP! Vinyl Figures by Funko. They are TOTALLY adorable with big heads & little bodies. Each affordably priced at $12.50, they have 12 characters that are in this first group of collectibles including these Disney favorites:

1.) Mickey Mouse

2.) Buzz Lightyear

3.) Woody

4.) Sulley

5.) Mike Wazowski

6.) Pinocchio

7.) Jiminy Cricket

8.) Snow White

9.) Maleficent

10.) Tinkerbell

11.) Cruella De Vil

12.) Stitch 

Which ones will you collect? We just bought some for our kids, my older daughter chose Mike Wazowski & my younger daughter picked out Jiminy Cricket. My personal favorite is Snow White. My husband likes Stitch. Which one is your favorite? Do you think Pop! Vinyl Figures will become as popular as Vinylmations? One of the good things about them is that you can see the character that you are buying, so you don't get stuck with one you don't want. Or is that part of the success of Vinylmations, that it's a gamble, and you never know which one you are going to get? Is trading Vinylmations half the fun? What do you think?

Halloween Time at Disneyland Resort

Halloween Time has made it's way to So Cal, and it's going on now through October 31st at Disneyland Resort. Get ready to be dazzled in the most spook-tacular way!

 

My family and I just went to the Disneyland Resort this past weekend & had a pumpkin, er,  I mean ball. There are SO many festive sights, sounds and smells for the little ones and not so little ones. They really did an amazing job of getting us in the Halloween mood. Everywhere you look there are orange and black decor, pumpkins, fall leaves and more! If you have never been to Disneyland during Halloween Time, you really must go.

Also we will be attending MICKEY'S HALLOWEEN PARTY soon, so we will give you the low down on that too! (It's the separate ticketed event where kids and adults can dress up and trick-or-treat inside the park.)

  Halloween Time Highlights  

• Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland is transformed for the PUMPKIN FESTIVAL. More than 300 pumpkins will be on display in shop windows and none of them are the same!

 

• Meeting Disney characters will be easier than ever as Disney villains gather to plot Halloween mischief at “it’s a small world” Mall in Disneyland, while other characters in spooky attire greet guests in Town Square, Main Street, U.S.A.

• Special Halloween treats will be available in Disneyland, including menu items such as Zero’s Ghostly Ghoulash, served in a dog dish in honor of Zero.

 

• Halloween Time gifts are offered in Disneyland Resort shops. Gifts include jack- o-lantern mouse ears and collectable pins depicting Mickey Mouse and his friends in Halloween costumes.

  

• Jack Skellington also returns to take over the Haunted Mansion and bring back Haunted Mansion Holiday to New Orleans Square in Disneyland, inspired by “Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas.” 

• The "Haunted" version of Space Mountain aka Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy. Ghosts appear out of the starry darkness and swirling galaxies of Space Mountain, reaching out as if to grab guests as they speed through space. The exhilarating drops and curves of the journey are punctuated by piercing screams, creepy sound effects and haunting music.

• For spine-tingling fun, drop in at The Twilight Zone™ Tower of Terror at Disney California Adventure park, where a “supernatural” event happened on Halloween evening, 1939, forever haunting the building.

And don't forget to go VOTE for your favorite Disney Villian!

(as of today: MALEFICENT is in the lead)
