This week we managed to sneak away from the world of blogging to catch a screening of the newest animated movie from Walt Disney Animation Studios “The Princess and the Frog”. If you are a fan of the original Disney Animated films such as “Beauty and the Best”, “Aladdin” and “The Little Mermaid” the latest installment in the Disney vault of animated Disney classics takes us to New Orleans, Louisiana where we meet the newest Disney Princess “Princess Tiana” and the newest Disney Prince “Prince Naveen”.
In true Disney fashion they enlisted the help of some very famous voices to accompany the eclectic cast of characters that make up “The Princess and the Frog”. Some of the most notable voices include Anika Noni Rose (Princess Tiana), Bruno Campos (Prince Naveen), Keith David (Dr. Facilier), Oprah Winfrey (Eudora), John Goodman (‘Big Daddy’ La Bouff) and Terrence Howard as James the father of princess Tiana.
In the Disney style we are all used to, Disney Animation has created characters that make you laugh and are totally lovable including a trumpet playing Crocodile named “Louis” and a Lightning Bug that has a deep southern accent named “Ray”. We won’t give away too much about the film because it’s worth a trip to the theater to watch but we can guarantee you will walk away with a smile on your face.
Have you seen “The Princess and the Frog” in theaters? What did you think?

On December 22nd, Miramax Films and Buena Vista Home Entertainment are releasing the movie “EXTRACT” on Blu-ray and Hi-Def DVD.
This hilarious comedy is directed by Mike Judge who also directed “Office Space” and “King of the Hill.” In the movie, a Vanilla Extract factory, run by Jason Bateman’s character, is turned upside down when a gorgeous con artist, played by Mila Kunis from “That 70′s Show” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” shows up for work.
Mila’s character meets one of the workers from the company who was involved in a freak accident while on the job, and even though the employee doesn’t want to sue, Mila convinces him to do so in a get rich scheme!
We don’t want to give away the ending of the movie, but we want you to know that we laughed from the time we turned the movie on until the time it was over. There are so many intricate, thought out details and so many fun characters involved that we couldn’t help but sit on the edge of our seats waiting for the next punchline.
Other actors in the film include:
- Kristen Wigg
- Ben Affleck
- J.K. Simmons
- Clifton Collins, Jr.
- Gene Simmons
Kristen Wigg’s relationship with her husband, played by Jason Bateman, is hilarious in the movie! They start off strongly disliking each other, but after a series of funny circumstances they end up finding common ground by the end of the film. All because of the help of Ben Affleck’s character!
Bonus Features on both the Blu-ray and DVD editions of the movie include:
- Mike Judge’s Secret Recipe—What are the ingredients of a classic Mike Judge film? Go straight to the factory floor to uncover the writer and director’s secrets. From shooting in a real working factory to the unique cast of characters and situations, Mike Judge always seems to have the right recipe.
Bonus Features on the Blu-ray include:
- Extended Scenes—5 scenes featuring extended portions with Joel, Dean and Brad that didn’t make the final cut of the film.
- Deleted Scene—Straight from the factory floor, watch this exclusive deleted scene where Dean explains his rather abrupt departure from Willie’s party the night before and finds out Joel got punched in the face.
The movie is priced at $39.99 for the Blu-ray and $29.99 for the DVD.
We are currently running an “EXTRACT” contest – which you can sign up for here, for your chance to win your own copy of “EXTRACT.”
