Looks like Amy Adams, Chris Cooper and Rashida Jones are in talks to join the “The Greatest Muppets Movie Ever Made.” The movie stars Jason Segel from “I love you man” which is one of my favorite movies! He also co-wrote the project and will be co-producer on the movie.

In the movie Jason tries to reunite all of the Muppet characters so they can help save their movie studio. If hired Amy would play Jason’s girlfriend, while Rashida would play an ABC Network Executive and Chris would play a villain out to get the Muppets.

The movie is set to release to theaters at the end of 2011.

Disney Interactive Studios cuts staff, sinks Pirates of the Caribbean game

This sad news comes to us from the Vancouver Sun.

Disney Interactive Studios has laid off staff and cancelled the much-anticipated game Pirates of the Caribbean: Armada of the Damned at its Vancouver studio Propaganda Games.

A laid-off employee, who wished to be anonymous, said that close to 100 people lost their jobs Thursday. Calls and e-mails to Disney Interactive were not returned, but web magazine Kotaku quoted Angela Emery, Disney Interactive Studios vice-president of communications, as saying the studio’s big title for 2011 is off the books.

“Disney Interactive Studios confirms the cancellation of the Pirates of the Caribbean: Armada of the Damned video game, which was scheduled to be released in 2011,” Emery said. “As a result of this decision, Disney Interactive Studios completed a restructuring of Propaganda Games, its Vancouver, B.C., internal studio, affecting one of the studio’s two development teams.”

“Restructuring” means lost jobs, and the laid-off employee said close to half the workforce is gone.

The company still plans a Dec. 7 release of Tron: Evolution, another Propaganda game tied to a Disney movie release, the shot-in-Vancouver Tron: Legacy.

October 17, 2010

There are only a few weeks left to submit nominations for the 2011 Disney’s Dreamers Academy with Steve Harvey and Essence Magazine. High school students ages 13-19 who are legal residents of the contiguous 48 United States must submit their nominations at www.disneysdreamersacademy.com by Oct. 31, 2010.

The nationwide search is on for students who want to ignite their lives, dreams and passions. Disney’s Dreamers Academy is known for motivating, empowering and inspiring young adults to live life to its fullest potential. This year Essence Communications joins with Disney Parks and Steve Harvey to help take Dreamers to the next level.

“Each year we strive to find young people who may have a will or passion, but may not have the courage to explore their dreams,” said Harvey. “So we hope to unlock the power that will allow them to pursue their hearts’ desires.”

Developed in 2007 by Disney Parks, Disney’s Dreamers Academy continues to inspire teens to dream big and pursue their passion. Motivational speakers, Disney experts and celebrities participate in the program every year to share their stories and provide insight on how to achieve success. The program brings together high school students from all walks of life and from across the country for interactive workshops and seminars, showing kids a world of possibilities. During hands-on experiences, participants explore a world of career options – from animation, through entrepreneurship, to zoology.

Tracey Walters-Powell, executive champion of the program for Disney Parks & Resorts said, “Disney’s Dreamers Academy is a perfect platform to further the goal, shared by Disney Parks, Essence Communications and – it goes without saying – by Steve Harvey, to inspire children. We are genuinely excited about the possibilities ahead.”

Angela Burt-Murray, editor-in-chief of Essence Magazine added, “Essence is closely aligned with Disney and Steve Harvey in supporting the mission of Disney’s Dreamers Academy and its commitment to positively impacting our youth. Disney’s Dreamers Academy is helping teens take steps in the right direction, and we want to be right there with the students, both encouraging them and sharing their stories.”

Every fall thousands of teens are nominated by their relatives, friends, teachers, mentors and themselves. Each year, only 100 Dreamers are selected by a distinguished panel of leaders from the communications, education and entertainment industries. The lucky winners receive an all-expense paid trip to Walt Disney World Resort for several days during which they learn how to “dream big,” form lifelong friendships with like-minded individuals from across the nation and indulge in all of Disney’s magical theme parks. Disney, Essence Communications and Steve Harvey will increase their efforts to help teens get started on their professional journey. Dreamers will learn interview skills and techniques and the importance of networking.

The 2011Disney’s Dreamers Academy will take place March 3-6, 2011, at Walt Disney World Resort, near Orlando in central Florida. For more information and to apply for the 2011 program, please visit www.disneysdreamersacademy.com no later than Oct. 31, 2010.

Disney’s WOW (World Of Wonder) Offers Consumers A “How To” For In-Home HD Optimization

October 16, 2010

Through Home Entertainment, The Walt Disney Studios has introduced the Disney WOW World of Wonder Disc, its first-ever easy to follow guide to optimally setting up High Definition (HD) home entertainment systems. Available November 2 on Blu-ray™ and DVD, the Disney WOW disc is designed to help consumers get the best quality experience from their home theater systems providing everyone from beginners and enthusiasts to experts and custom installers alike with valuable high quality calibration tools.

The Disney WOW disc has been engineered to meet or exceed the Digital Reference Standard for ultra high fidelity picture and sound delivering the best home theater presentation possible. It will be offered along with exclusive content on a bonus disc, an added Disney film and a high performance HDMI cable.

Viewers learn the basics of HD and home theater alongside Disney’s classic character GOOFY, then follow basic instructions to maximize home theater performance through an easy to follow on-screen menu. The disc packaging also includes an in-depth illustrated handbook. The Disney WOW disc is comprehensive and applicable to everything from flat panel displays and OLED screens to projection equipment and CRT based TV sets, as well as multiple sound formats ranging from Stereo to 7.1 Channel Surround.

There are 35 easy-to-use A/V Calibration and Evaluation Tools for Beginners, Advanced and Expert Home Theater Enthusiasts. A/V Tools in the Beginner section are designed for ease of use in the proper alignment of home theater equipment.

The Advanced section contains A/V Tools that address professional evaluation and calibration tasks for specific monitors, displays, and projectors. Illustrations in the included 56 page booklet and the on-screen guide provide clear examples of properly and improperly calibrated A/V test patterns.

The Disney WOW disc A/V tools include:

Pixel Flipper – This feature exercises all of the pixels on the screen, attempting to eliminate “burn-in” and “stuck” pixels.
Viewing Angle Diagnostic – An easy to use diagnostic tool for determining viewing angle on the owner’s monitor.
The Video Encoder Stress Test – This test is specifically designed to push the limits of a professional video encoding system. Users will encounter the most difficult possible video encoding challenges running simultaneously on the screen, allowing them to compare results to the WOW Benchmark Reference.
Direct Access – This control allows experienced users to bypass the regular menus and go to a List of all A/V Tools where they can access the tool of their choice directly.

The Disney WOW World of Wonder disc will be presented in several packaged configurations with either a single disc version or a two (2) disc version available. The two disc packaging features two discs: the WOW instructional A/V calibration and demonstration disc, which includes clips from popular Disney titles including Toy Story, UP, Bolt and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and, as special added content, an exclusive disc called VISIONS: Inspired by Nature, featuring breathtaking natural and digitally created landscapes with original music scores and ambient sounds.

October 16, 2010

Disney Interactive Studios today announced the release of Disney Sing It: Party Hits, the newest karaoke video game in the Disney Sing It franchise. Now available for the PlayStation^®3 computer entertainment system and Wii™, Disney Sing It: Party Hits features 30 songs and videos from today’s hottest artists including Allstar Weekend, Jordin Sparks, Justin Bieber, Nick Jonas & The Administration, Paramore and Selena Gomez. The game also includes vocal exercises and tips from “Sonny With A Chance” and “Camp Rock” star, Demi Lovato, to assist players in improving their vocal skills.

“The Disney Sing It franchise continues to bring popular songs from leading artists into the home in an interactive, fun and engaging way,” said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios. “Demi Lovato as the in-game vocal coach is an exciting feature we know fans will love and appreciate.”

A true party in a box, Disney Sing It: Party Hits allows players to sing solo, partner with a friend in duets and compete in new competitive modes. In the new Sing Off mode, two groups with up to eight players, go head to head in a huge sing-off. The players in one group sing solo and as an ensemble, while the opposing team does the same. The group with the highest score becomes the winner. In Performance mode, the song lyrics and pitch bar are removed for a more relaxed experience for beginners, while expert singers can try their hand at getting high scores without on screen prompts to ease their performance. Also new to the Sing It franchise is Karaoke mode where players have the ability to reduce the vocal level of the artists in each song, giving themselves a chance to shine.

October 16, 2010

Production has begun on “Motorcity,” an animated series set in a futuristic Detroit after it has been purchased and built into Detroit Deluxe by evil billionaire Abraham Kane. Kane, having banned personal freedoms including automobile transportation, is ultimately challenged by a group of rebels who call themselves The Burners. Led by 17-year-old Mike Chilton, The Burners retreat to an underground city, customize their fleet of hot rods and pursue their quest to stop Kane from taking over the world. The series, created by Chris Prynoski and produced by Disney Television Animation and Titmouse, Inc., is slated to premiere next year on the burgeoning Disney XD, which offers a compelling mix of live-action and animated programming for kids age 6-14, hyper-targeting boys and their quest for discovery, accomplishment, sports, adventure and humor. The announcement was made today by Eric Coleman, Senior Vice President, Original Series, Disney Television Animation.

Coleman said, “Motorcity celebrates freedom and independence with cool cars, great action, and dynamic heroes who stand up for what they believe in. With its fresh sensibility and striking visual style, this show is custom-made for our Disney XD audience.”

The series features the voice talent of Reid Scott (“My Boys”) as Mike Chilton; Nate Torrence (“She’s Out of My League,” “Get Smart”) as Chuck; Katie Micucci (“When in Rome”) as Julie; Kel Mitchell (“Kenan and Kel”) as Luv; Jess Harnell (“Drawn Together”) as Texas; Brian Doyle Murray (“The Middle”) as Jacob; Jim Breuer (“Saturday Night Live”) as Tooley; and Mark Hamill (“Star Wars”) as Abraham Kane.

“Motorcity” is executive produced and directed by Chris Prynoski (“Metalocalypse,” “Megas XLR,” “Downtown”). Craig Lewis (“Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends”) serves as story editor, and John O’Bryan (“Avatar: The Last Airbender”) and George Krstic (“Star Wars: Clone Wars”) are staff writers.

D23′s 2nd Annual “Magic & Merriment” at Walt Disney World

By

October 16, 2010

Last year a delightful holiday tradition was born when D23 Members from across the country gathered at Walt Disney World to celebrate the sparkle of the season at D23’s first Magic & Merriment event. Join us as we create heartwarming new memories this year.

The holly jolly happening begins the evening of Friday, December 10, when guests register for the event at One Man’s Dream, the iconic Disney’s Hollywood Studios attraction celebrating the legacy of Walt Disney. Inside the attraction, which is presented by D23, you’ll also be treated to a private screening of Archiving the Archives, a new documentary celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Walt Disney Archives.

On Saturday morning, December 11, you’ll enjoy hot holiday cider, flavored coffees and scrumptious Christmas Stollen inside the Odyssey Center at Epcot, where guests will be greeted by members of the D23 Team and some holiday surprises. Walt Disney World President Meg Crofton will be on hand to welcome guests and share some stories of the magic of the Resort at the most happiest time of the year. Chefs Erich Herbitschek and Stefan Reimer return to Magic & Merriment for another hilarious — and delicious! — baking demonstration sure to tempt your taste buds. You’ll then be invited to spend the afternoon enjoying the holiday splendor of Epcot at your own pace before re-joining the group at the America Gardens Theatre as the sun begins to set.

As you nestle into your reserved seat, sit back, snuggle up and delight in the warm embrace of Walt Disney World’s perennial Christmas favorite, Candlelight Processional. This time-honored tradition of classic carols and hymns sung by a choir of hundreds will be narrated by Disney and ABC star Whoopi Goldberg (The View, The Lion King). Following this special performance, you will be transported to Disney’s Hollywood Studios for a sumptuous holiday feast on the incredible set of the Indiana Jones™ Epic Stunt Spectacular. After the park closes, you’ll head over to New York Street for a private viewing of The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights during a special presentation hosted by Walt Disney Entertainment’s John Phelan.

Sunday morning you will wake up to mix and mingle over brunch at the stunning Top of the World Lounge high above Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort. The Lounge, which offers a spectacular view of the Magic Kingdom Park, is usually reserved for Disney Vacation Club Members staying at Bay Lake Tower, but our friends at the Disney Vacation Club are opening it up just for you. Enjoy an inside look at this breathtaking building and even tour a Grand Villa, one of the most stunning suites at the Walt Disney World Resort!

After brunch, D23 Members will enjoy a very “suite” treat — exclusive tours of the stunning Dream Suite inside Cinderella Castle, high above Fantasyland. The suite is not open to the general public, so this will truly be a magical moment.

Come nightfall, celebrate together at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and relax at D23’s private hospitality lounge on board the Liberty Belle steamboat for holiday treats, cocoa and cider. You’ll also enjoy reserved viewing of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Parade and the holiday fireworks extravaganza — Holiday Wishes: Celebrate the Spirit of the Season. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a D23 event without a few seasonal surprises to commemorate the weekend! Happy holidays from your friends at D23!

* Holiday cider, coffee and Christmas Stollen at the Odyssey Center (Saturday)
