Lionsgate Into 2013

 

It's the holidays and folks are scampering about, screaming at each other over stolen parking spaces, sale prices that aren't ringing up at the register while 50 angry shoppers wait impatiently in the shadows and that very last Cabbage Patch Kid that was really mine even though that woman with the three kids said it was hers and then she fell down. So I took it. Mine. Along with the Holidays comes prayer to our volcano gods and a look into the year to come. It's magical. Here's Lionsgate's lineup!

 

Disney in 2013

This time of year you'll see list after list of the things folks loved and hated...cheered for and wanted to set themselves on fire in protest towards. It's all very dramatic and I know for a fact a good half of the sites would rather not write them at all...but the hungry animal called society demands their lists. Today, I come not to feed the beast but to look forward (as we have been with our Toy Fair build up beginning 2 months early) as we glance into Disney's movie slate for 2013!! (providing we survive tomorrow's world ending kerfuffle, of course.)

Oz The Great and Powerful: Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great wizard but into a better man as well. When small-time magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) pulls one flimflam too many, he finds himself hurled into the fantastical Land of Oz where he must somehow transform himself into the great wizard—and just maybe into a better man as well.
