Stuber — What The FOX ?!? — Snipes n Snarfblatts

I'm starting to think Stuber might be the funniest movie that's going to drop this year. I figured with this being the International Trailer, it would be close to the same as the original. And while there are some familiar scenes this one throws down on even more funny. The start with a look at Stu's usual boring Uber life was great. Then the intro of Batista's cop was just amazing. I'll be laughing about the scene with the stretcher for days. I really can't wait to see this horribly named movie. Named after an inside joke. Where as if you don't know the ot the name just doesn't make since. I hope this doesn't hurt it in the long run. Like I said this has the potential to be the funniest movie this year hands down. Anyway, were y'all as I to this new look as I was? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

FOX was a big part of Disney's presentation at CinemaCon. Which brought up some films I didn't have on my radar at all. One of these was Stuber . They talked it up to the point I was curious, but still had no idea what to expect other than a comedy with Dave Bautista. Especially from that name. A name which now makes perfect since after seeing this trailer. Also starring Kumail Nanjiani, who we talked about last week as in talks for Marvel's The Eternals . Where he plays an Uber driver, hence the name Stuber , that gets his car commandeered by a cop (Bautista) on the hunt for a murderer. From what it looks like in this trailer, pure hilarity ensues. Provided they didn't show us every funny moment in the trailer, this has the potential to be great. It also looks like the first role for Bautista, that could push his acting career to big new places. Don't know if many people will get past this name though. Like I said, after watching this trailer it makes since, but will that hold for name recognition at the box-office? Only time will tell, but this is definitely a very funny trailer nonetheless. What do y'all think? Will y'all be there for one of the first FOX films Disney's pushing? Let me know in the comments, like, & share.

Michelle Rejwan Now Senior VP Live Action Development And Production For Lucasfilm

Hollywood Reporter reports Michelle Rejwan is now the Senior VP of Live Action Development & Production. She will oversee new feature films as well Disney+ series while still producing with president Kathleen Kennedy. That seems like a hefty responsibility to drop on someone who's previous credits at Lucasfilm are producing The Force Awakens & The Rise of Skywalker. Kennedy really sees something in her though, having “seen first-hand her skills collaborating with writers and directors, and I've been incredibly impressed with her creative skills and her ability to manage the complexity surrounding these massive projects.” Can she be the Feige of Star Wars? Time will tell. After the hate Kennedy got from the last installment, which I loved by the way, one could think this is just to give her a scapegoat if things don't go as well over the next few projects. Curious to see how much influence this winds up having as a whole. What do y'all think? Trust in Kennedy? Or do you think maybe a more vetted choice would have been better?

Disney Reveals Name of Tokyo DisneySea's 8th Port

After breaking ground in what is to become Tokyo DisneySea's 8th port, we now have its official name. Fantasy Springs will be the title, but that's not all Dismey released on the subject. They also released some beautiful day & night concept art depicting the look of the new lands. Oriental land is investing 250 Billion Yen on this project that will feature lands themed to Frozen, Tangled, & Peter Pan. Frozen's land of post film Arendelle will feature an attraction that tells the story of Elsa and her beloved sister, Anna. Sounding like the familiar Epcot ride, suests will board boats and experience the sisters’ heartfelt journey, enjoying songs from the film, and encountering surprising thrills. There will also be a restaurant set inside the beautiful Arendelle Castle. Tangled's land will naturally feature Rapunzel’s tower rising above the forest. It will also include an boat attraction where guests will board gondolas for a romantic boat tour of Rapunzel’s “Best Day Ever” as she journeys with Flynn to the lantern festival. Flickering lanterns illuminate the attraction’s climactic scene while Rapunzel and Flynn sing an iconic song from the film. The pand will also feature a restaurant, inspired by the hideout of the band of thugs who appeared in the film in the "I've Got A Dream" sequence. Neverland will also be home to two attractions and a restaurant. Featuring landmarks including verdant mountains, Captain Hook’s pirate ship and Skull Rock. One attraction will fly over the jungles of Neverland into a battle with Captain Hook and his crew of pirates to rescue Wendy’s younger brother, John, who has been kidnapped by Captain Hook and his pirates. You'll board boats and follow the Lost Boys down a river until Tinker Bell sprinkles the boats with pixie dust, & you take off flying through Neverland on an adventure that featuring iconic music and dynamic 3D imagery of the characters from the film. The second attraction immerses us in the oversized world of Pixie Hollow, while the restaurant is inspired by the Lost Boys and their hideout. There will also be a new Disney Hllyel in the park. Themed to Disney fantasy, it will rise above and around the magical springs that serve as the core of the new themed port’s story. Offering 475 deluxe-type and luxury-type guest rooms, this park facing hotel will also feature a merchandise shop that helps share the story of the magical springs. One day I'll make it out here to see all the amazingly beautiful things TokyoSea has to offer. Luckily, I have one more reason to postpone that adventure until this amazing new addition is done.
