Big Hero 6 SPECIAL TRIVIA

Big Hero 6 SPECIAL TRIVIA

All movies have special features that are really interesting, and once you know them, this makes the movie more interesting and appealing, Big Hero 6 is no different. Big Hero 6 has very interesting features and these are some of them:
  • This is the first Marvel Comic based movie that Walt Disney Pictures have produced.
  • This is the first animated cameo that Stan Lee has done.
  • In this movie you can clearly see how the microbots became a sort of thematic character to the movie, and for this to be made the production team had to watch videos of Fire Ants as inspiration for their movement.
  • Baymax’s movements were inspired by baby penguins. The production team also studied the baby penguin’s movements to big to life this character.
  • “Will Baymax and the Big Hero 6 Team ever appear with The Avengers or in this universe?”  If this question ever pops up in your mind, I have the answer for you.
  • The answer is, no. Sadly Big Hero 6 is based on some other universe and not in the Avengers’ universe, so the possibilities for a team up are slight.
  • Hiro is the first biracial Disney character ever, and to its coincidence the actor the portrays his voice, Ryan Potter, is also biracial.(half Japanese and Caucasian)
  • When Baymax first tests out his new rocket fist in Fred’s Mansion, the statue that it destroys is a statue of Hans, from Frozen.
  • Like the marvel movies, this one also has a credit scene, so when you see this movie, wait and check the scene out.

Big Hero 6 Review





 Review

This year Big Hero 6 was released, this was said to be one of the best animated films of the year, which I doubted before, because I thought it was just boring and it seemed plain. But as I saw the trailer, and a special sneak preview that was advertised, I gave this movie a chance. When I saw it in the movies, I was astounded, I mean, I was totally impressed with the story line and how it really invades your mind and you wrap your head around the movie. It is really heartwarming.

Many people commented how the movie has something for everybody, it truly does, and that’s what really calls my attention because this means you can go to the movies and see it with your family and no one will get bored, kids would have a great time watching it and even adults.

 The way how robots are presented to us during these years has been so negative, and I really liked how this movie changed their perspective, you can see how robots come in many sizes and how they aren't always designed to be evil minions. That I think was the best message.


What I also was impressed by, was the fact that this movie is actually a marvel comic based film. I was surprised to see that Disney really could make a super hero movie without it turning it into something lame, I found this film well done, and surprisingly very interesting. You will want more of this film, when it ends, and it’s no surprise, that there will be a sequel.

Into The Woods SPECIAL TRIVIA

SPECIAL TRIVIA

In every movie productions, there is so much you don’t see, like the special effects, or the mishaps. Even so, when you see them, they turn out to be informing and entertaining too, and so for this matter I will be writing a special trivia blog for each movie review I write, just for the sense of entertaining and informing.
In the set of Into the Woods many things happen; and many things that are interesting are untold and these are some of those things.

  • According to Anna Kendrick, the set pieces for the woods, in the film were so big that she and Chris Pine got lost. They even had to set a rescue team from the production staff, to find them in the sound stage.

  • In a Q&A, James Corden recalled a very memorable incident, while in rehearsals in which Meryl was supposed to jump to a table, while her jump, her foot got stuck on her costume and she started to fall backwards, head first. Both Corden and Rob Marshall (Director) thought they would presence the death of the great Meryl Streep, but, then suddenly Emily Blunt stepped in and caught her before touching the floor.


  • This is the fourth time that Lucy Punch plays a step sister on screen. Previous projects are: Ella Enchanted, Cinderella and Fairy Tales.

  • The budget of this film was about 50 Million Dollars.



  • Meryl Streep also commented that in her life time, she was offered many roles as witch, but this is the first one that has ever interested her.

Into The Woods Review & News!

Once Upon A Time Season 4 Announcement
I've decided that from this point forward my blog will not only feature just Once Upon A Time Season 4 Reviews, but now I will expand to other films and series. This doesn't mean that the Once Upon A Time reviews are over but, I will put them off for a while.

Review
If you really like musicals this movie must be on your radar. When I saw this movie the first thing I expected was, a mix of a Tim Burton movie meets Les Miserables. What I also expected was a movie that was kind of vintage and also a bit of an innocent fairytale, but still with a dark feel to it. 
I was almost right.
When I saw this movie I was surprised because, one, I never thought this would be a musical. Two, I never imagined that Anna Kendrick sang that well or sang at all. Three, Meryl Streep was great in this roll, I really loved it. Four, I never thought that this movie would end the way it did, and my last, I think this movie is a bit sinister not in its story line, but in the way Disney turned it to; I feel this movie has too many deaths to be a Disney movie, I think this movie should be more directed to the older crowd.
Personally I liked how the movie tells different stories at the same time, but yet somehow they end up being one whole story, and the way the songs tell the stories, they are not boring at all, they are truly entertaining. In the instant I saw the movie; I already had my selection of favorite songs. It’s that good. For example in the beginning of the movie, there is a prologue that lasts like 14 minutes, that song is one of my favorites.
 These are my favorites:
        1.  Prologue: Into The Woods
    2. Giants in The Sky
    3On The Steps Of The Palace


 I recommend this movie to musical enthusiasts, if you’re not into musicals; this movie is not really for you.

Once Upon A Time 3rd Episode For Season 4

Once Upon A Time 3rd Episode For Season 4
"Rocky Road"

The third episode starts with, Robin Hood, his son and his wife, Miriam walking around Storybrooke, they are showing Miriam around, because as I mention before, she comes from the past. Then suddenly Robin’s kid asked if he could have ice cream, they both agreed, and so, they walked towards the ice cream shop. When they got there, they were greeted by Ingrid, the person in charge of the store, robin and his son, asked for rocky road, as Miriam wasn't from this world, she had the least bit of an idea on what to ask for, and so Ingrid was kind enough to offer her a simple vanilla ice-cream cone, as she added some sprinkles to it, it was seen how Ingrid waved her hand over the cone and some translucent shimmer appeared. What could this be?

As Miriam and Robin Hood entered a municipal meeting that snow white and prince charming had planned, out of nowhere Miriam started to feel dizzy and lost sight, and then of course she fainted. Everybody got scared at that moment. Then, Robin had no one else to go to, and so he went looking for Regina in hopes that she could be of any help. When robin got to her, he asked if there was something she could do to reverse the curse; she sadly said no, there was nothing she could do.
Later on when Regina left to see Miriam, Elsa walked in with Emma, Regina blamed Elsa for what was happening to Miriam, for the curse was lifted with ice magic which Elsa possessed. Elsa told them this wasn't her magic and so they seek the Dark One for his help. He was able to help and turned a lock of Miriam’s hair into snowflakes that lead to the owner’s magic source. Elsa and Hook took the journey and followed the snowflakes.
Eventually the snowflakes lead them to the Snow Queen A.K.A Ingrid. Elsa saw her and she was astounded with what she saw, she saw someone just like her, this made her feel happy and interested.

This episode also tells us how The Snow Queen came to be. It turns out The Snow Queen was released years ago from the same Urn Elsa escaped. Prince Hans, Elsa’s and Anna’s nemesis, released her in hope the urn would dispose of Elsa, and make him the ruler of Arendele. After the snow queen was released, Elsa was grateful for her help, because the Snow Queen froze Hans and saved her. After a while Elsa and Ingrid caught up on their lives, and Elsa found out that The Snow Queen is or was , Elsa’s mother’s sister, that makes  The Snow Queen  Elsa’s and Anna’s Aunt.
