It’s The End Of The World As We Know It!

Chicken Little — The Official Movie Website

Pretty excited to see Disney’s first venture into computer animation on their own after the Pixar divorce πŸ™ It looks pretty cool by the trailer! Lets just wait and see πŸ˜‰ – Don Knotts is BACK!

A year after the notorious acorn incident, Chicken Little has less credibility in his hometown of Oakey Oaks — where bats sell eyeglasses, bulls run the china shop, and mice deal in cheese — than the boy who cried wolf. Disney’s upcoming computer-animated feature is the story of a child’s quest to regain the respect of his father and an entire community. Director Mark Dindal (β€œThe Emperor’s New Groove”) calls it an “animal comedy with a big human heart.” Adds producer Randy Fullmer, “The animation is absolutely phenomenal.”

Combining Disney’s artistic heritage with 3-D technology, the film breaks ground for the studio. “Once in a while you recognize that you’re working on something really special,” says Fullmer. “‘[Who Framed] Roger Rabbit’ was like that. ‘The Little Mermaid.’ ‘The Lion King.’ ‘Chicken Little’ has that kind of magic.”

The movie drops into theaters in July, with the voice talents of Zach Braff in the title role, Don Knotts as Mayor Turkey Lurkey, and Joan Cusack, Garry Marshall, and Fred Willard.

26 Days Till Christmas!

Ah! Christmas is HERE! It too funny how the day after Thanksgiving now is INSTANT CHRISTMAS! It is like someone flipped on a switch and Christmas is here! I think Friday and Saturday I heard EVERY Christmas song out there! Don’t get me wrong I love Christmas music, but November 26th, too early!

Good to hear Howard back on the air today, Howard talked about Blogs and it is for lonely women! Too funny! Howard closed down his mess of a message board. I never got into it, so I wont miss it! My experience in message boards are so sour, I would have told Howard to never start one! Always a nightmare and it brings out the worse in people. They also discussed Robin’s future show and it appears Robin is going over to Sirius and all is well πŸ™‚ It is always the best shows when Howard comes off vacation, telling all his tales while he was gone! I love that he stayed home and watched The Bachelor instead of going to Scores!

Another shout out to Engadget – www.engadget.com ++ WHAT A KILLER SITE! Day after day I check it out, and I am a fan of their Podcast! So many cool things are coming out at a furious rate. I LOVE IT πŸ™‚ Just sucks because I really want almost every gadget they post! I love hearing about all the new Ipods even lil gadgets like the TV turner offer!

I checked out Desperate Housewives last night! I must admit I was not a fan at first, but I really enjoy watching the show! It really reminds me of Twin Peaks! It even has one of the cast members from the show! I think it is really well done and it keeps you guessing week to week! I saved them all up on Tivo and watched like 4 of them over the past few days and I am really into it! It is really helping out ABC with a number 2 slot last week! I was really shocked at who bought it this week! If you did not see it don’t read the rest of this part! I knew that they were not going to kill off any major character! Not to be morbid, but it could not have happened to a better person! hehe

Will be at the Windansea on Friday for Coors Light! It will also be Daddy Pops Anniversary party, so come down and celebrate! – More news during the week!

Stern Sidekick Robin Quivers Gets TV Deal

Stern Sidekick Robin Quivers Gets TV Deal – Nov 23, 7:41 AM(ET)

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Robin Quivers, shock jock Howard Stern’s longtime sidekick, is making a solo move toward television.

Quivers has signed a deal with Sony Pictures Television to develop a syndicated talk show for daytime TV, the company announced Monday.

The potential series could debut by fall 2005. Quivers will continue her work on Stern’s radio show while developing her TV show, Sony said.

There was no indication whether she planned to remain with Stern if her show gets a green light. A call to her manager in New York was not immediately returned Monday.

Quivers, a former nurse in the Air Force who achieved the rank of captain, began her radio career in Washington, D.C., in 1980 and teamed with Stern the next year.

In October, Stern announced a deal with Sirius Satellite Radio to move his program in January 2006 from traditional broadcasting to satellite distribution – and away from regulation.

Stern’s raunchy radio show has brought repeated fines over the years. The FCC cracked down harder on indecent broadcasting following Janet Jackson’s racy Super Bowl display last February.

Jurrasic Park 4!

Get ready for more Dino fun! – And there could be another big-money sequel on the way! – The director of the first two Jurassic Park films Steven Spielberg – speaking to a US magazine called Starlog – said he has found a brilliant script for the fourth film. He’s in charge of all the JP films, but as with the third film, Spielberg doesn’t want to direct and could give the reins to Joe Johnstone, who made that one.

Story is better than the last two – Spielberg insists that the new script is even better than the last two films and will be the best dinosaur movie since the original Jurassic Park. But he won’t let anything out of the bag.

Hey, I liked all 3 ! πŸ™‚

PUSS-IN-BOOTS The Movie!

A Spin Off! hehe Too Classic! Usually these straight to DVD movies stink, but we will see πŸ™‚ – Hey, People LOVE that cat! hehe – Thanks Chris for the article.

DreamWorks making a PUSS-IN-BOOTS film

Dateline: Friday, November 19, 2004 – Source: Variety

DreamWorks is moving forward to give Puss-in-Boots, the sword-wielding cat voiced by Antonio Banderas in SHREK 2, his own film project. The studio has hired screenwriters Ed Decter and John Strauss (THE SANTA CLAUSE 2, THE LIZZIE MCGUIRE MOVIE) to write the screenplay for the new CGI film, which DreamWorks is eyeing for a direct-to-video release. While no deal is in place for Banderas to voice his feline rogue in the newly announced project, it’s likely that the studio will be able to strike a deal with the Spanish-born actor; after all, his involvement with SHREK 3 is certain.

No details on the PUSS-IN-BOOTS storyline were made available

(if there any any at this early stage of the game.)

Making Free IPods Pay Off – Wired.com

By Leander Kahney | 02:00 AM Aug. 18, 2004 PT

Unless you’re extremely gullible, the promise of getting a free iPod from FreeiPods.com looks extremely dubious.

But surprisingly, the site appears to be legitimate. The program almost certainly isn’t a dodgy pyramid scheme; it’s a new form of online marketing supported by companies like eBay, AOL and Columbia House.

Here’s how it works: FreeiPods.com promises an iPod or a $250 gift certificate to anyone who signs up for various online promotions and persuades five other people to participate.

Subscribers are given a choice of 10 different offers, including a 45-day trial of AOL and a two-week trial of Ancestry.com’s genealogy service. Typically, the offers are free and easily canceled.

Once the trials are over — for both the main subscriber and the referrals — the free iPod is dispatched.

Again please do me a solid and sign up off my link

Thanks and good luck getting 5 people!

Another Wild Weekend

Well, I had another action packed weekend! I got busy again doing the Coors Light promotions! I was at Jenks on Friday and had the annual Turkey Trot in Manasquan on Saturday! What an event! That was at least my 5th year there and it was crazy as usual!



VH1’s Rachel Perry (perrytrain.com) Introducing the show!

We headed down to the Borgata to check out Bon Jovi in Atlantic City! What a GREAT SHOW! It was to promote their new CD Box set, 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Cant Be Wrong! I love the packaging for the CD. It is a send off of the Elvis album with the same title. The band is wearing gold leame’ outfits, just like Elvis wore on his album and look really cool! The CD is really interesting. I would say 70% of the CD has unreleased songs that the band has collected over the years. Some are obvious why they never seen the light of day. Jon even mentions during the show why some weren’t released and they used certain elements of the songs in different songs. When my wife and I listened to the CD, we would sings parts of other songs to these songs. One of my favorite tracks was David Bryans song he did for his musical, Memphis. I have never heard it and thought it was really good!

I actually thought some of the newer songs were better done live here in the year 2004. I enjoyed many of the new songs that were performed. I saw the web cast as well and thought that it was really shot well! My friend Anthony Bongiovi directed and thought he did an awesome job! Hey, I knew him when, TBJ Entertainment Rocks Baby! The show was good, new songs were mixed in with most of the Bon Jovi classics. My only complaint, I want to hear a different closer other than “Shout”!!!

Sunday during the day kicked off the new interactive Coors promotion, You Make The Call with the NFL. The first stop was very slow, but it was good cause I still needed to work out all the kinks. It differs from the last Miramax promotion we did because we add the element of NFL video clips to the equation. They are really cool and we got a few good people to do it! Come out and check it out someday πŸ˜‰

Toy Story 3!

Excite News:

I guess this is good news! As I stated when The Incredibles came out, Disney has all the rights to all sequels to existing Pixar / Disney movies, so this was a logical decision to keep the cash cow rolling πŸ™‚ I love the Toy Story Trilogy and hope they do not mess up this next installment! Go Buzz!

“Disney Booting Up ‘Toy Story 3’ – Nov 16, 12:47 PM (ET)

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Walt Disney Studios is actively proceeding with a second sequel to Pixar Animation’s ‘Toy Story’ franchise, a move that could make it more difficult for the two companies to extend their rocky relationship.

Disney is in the process of setting up a digital animation facility in Glendale — not far from the digs of its bitter rival DreamWorks Animation — that will be used for the production of ‘Toy Story 3.’

While Disney has the rights to do sequels to ‘Toy Story,’ it has held off from doing so in the past, in part in deference to Pixar CEO Steve Jobs and executive VP John Lasseter, both of whom haven’t wanted to lose control of the characters.

But with Pixar announcing earlier this year that it would end its distribution relationship with Disney following the 2005 release of the Lasseter-directed ‘Cars,’ Disney CEO Michael Eisner and studio head Dick Cook have signaled their determination to bring Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the gang back to the big screen.

The project falls under the aegis of David Stainton, president of Walt Disney Feature Animation. Andrew Millstein, who headed the company’s now-shuttered animation facility in Orlando, also is involved and has begun the process of recruiting animation heavyweights from rival animation studios and effects shops. Neither Disney nor Pixar would comment.”

Got My Answer – Disney working on ‘Toy Story 3’ without Pixar

November 16, 2004 – 16:12 EST According to the Hollywood Reporter, Disney is actively proceeding with a second sequel to Pixar’s “Toy Story,” a move that could further damage the relationship between the two companies. “Disney is in the process of setting up a digital animation facility in Glendale — not far from the digs of its bitter rival DreamWorks Animation — that will be used for the production of ‘Toy Story 3.’ While Disney has the rights to do sequels to ‘Toy Story,’ it has held off from doing so in the past, in part in deference to Pixar CEO Steve Jobs and executive VP John Lasseter, both of whom haven’t wanted to lose control of the characters.”

‘Polar Express’ Sets Record for Imax Release

Excite News: “‘Polar Express’ Sets Record for Imax Release”

Although Polar Express did soso opening weekend, it still did huge numbers in Imax theaters πŸ™‚ Hey, I support Imax movies! Hell I saw 3 of them this week alone! hehe Listen to my audi blog for my review!

TORONTO (Reuters) – Tom Hanks’ holiday movie “The Polar Express” has set an opening weekend record for a Hollywood film released in Imax Corp.’s giant-screen format, the company’s co-chief executive said on Monday.

Brad Wechsler said the film grossed $2.1 million over the weekend in 59 North American Imax theaters for a total of $3 million in receipts since Wednesday.

But in the battle of computer-animated cartoons, “The Polar Express” pulled in at a distant No. 2 at North American weekend box offices after “The Incredibles,” a performance many considered disappointing.

“The Polar Express,” which reportedly cost $270 million to make and market, opened with a modest $23.5 million for the weekend, distributor Warner Bros. Pictures said. Since its release on Wednesday, it has grossed $30.8 million.

The Incredibles – $70.7 million!

Top Box Office

WOW what a great opening weekend! The movie was AWESOME! I actually have seen it TWICE already! I highly recommend the Sony / Lowes Theater in New Brunswick!

When a movie comes along I really want to see, I generally do not read much about it, read reviews or really explore much about it. Going in and seeing the movie, I was very surprised about it. I did hear it was a longer movie, coming in at 1 hr 45 mins and the movie was longer than most animated films. It also to me didn’t seem too “kiddie” and was very sophisticated. Also, humorous at times wasn’t as much a comedy as was an adventure movie. I loved the story line and the details and scenery of the film.

I will not give any spoilers, but it is up there with all my favorite Pixar movies! The computer animation was amazing. This is the first time Pixar has had humans as the main characters and not toys, monsters, bugs or fish πŸ™‚ Although they were artistic looking, the detail was amazing! I thought seeing it in the movies, Mr. Incredible looked a lot like a juiced Jay Moore.

The hair on the characters came out amazing. In the past, humans were a huge problem including hair and fabric on costumes. In The Incredibles, they really got it down. On the website, the making of the movie showed how they overcame all the obstacles of these human characters. I really enjoyed the voices of the characters and think they did a great job as usual. OK I am going to watch some more Pixar movies! πŸ™‚

I am also playing The Incredibles game for PS2 still and it ROCKS! I recommend that too!

What A Day For Movies!



Actually, what an INCREDIBLE DAY for movies! So much to talk about today in the world of movies! I am going to the 3:30 showing of The Incredibles! I can’t wait to go see it! Pixar is by far my favorite company! I am really gonna miss the pairing of Disney and Pixar πŸ™ I have The Incredibles game for PS2 and It is amazing, so its getting me ready for the movie! As this one kicks off, the next Pixar movie “Cars” debuted a preview on Apple.com Cars That movie looks AWESOME TOO! too funny how they know this movie is gonna be so huge, they took the day to show off their next project!

Speaking of taking the day WHAT THE HELL! Dreamworks released Shrek 2 today on a Friday! Usually movies come out on Tuesday, but I guess they want to capitalize on this huge release day! Also the Episode III Teaser Trailer hit AOL’s Movie phone today! IT LOOKS AMAZING! WHAT A DAY FOR MOVIES! Ok I’ll calm down hehe Moviefone: Home Page

Last and I am sure there are others, Fox is saying in their ad Wanna See Something Incredible? For their new Robin Williams animated movie called “Robots” 20th Century Fox: Robots I have seen the early trailer and that looks great too!

Ok 3:30 – Incredibles – Full Review – Next Blog! SAVE THE DAY!

CNN.com Election 2004

It amazes me that’s some states still use punch cards, are still messed up (Florida) and that booths were sent to places like Pennsylvania with hundreds of votes already registered on them! So who knows, maybe we will see another mess tonight! I will be at Jacks Rib And Ale House hehe in Long Branch! RobFuz.com Campaign headquarters! (kidding).
