Ok fun fact Puff...

When you first joined I thought you were 40 years old because that's what your age said...

So for the longest time I thought you were an adult. Compliment though...means you're mature

Wait... He's not? Just goes to show how slow I am when it comes to picking up social cues.

So.. Has anyone seen the new Jungle Book yet?

I have. It was a religious experience. If the rest of the live action remakes are as wonderful and beautiful as this, I'll be a very happy man.

That's great, hopefully BatB is just as good.

Looks like pretty much everyone has voted...though I do want to give everyone the opportunity, but I also don't want to wait forever and there isn't any ties in the main challenges. There's definite challenges that got the highest vote totals.

Would you guys want the highest voted challenge to be the first challenge in the comp? (Spoiler alert: It would be Phase 3 of New Fantasyland)

That way the most popular voted challenge kicks off the comp, and then from there the winning house picks the next challenge.

We'd start tomorrow morning after I get everything organized and typed up! Thoughts?

So I just saw the Pajama Game at a local playhouse. Their summer camp is doing Xanadu Jr. this year.

I've seen The Jungle Book once in 2D and once in 3D. The 3D is the best I've seen since Avatar hands down and really 3D in the theater is THE way to see this thing in its proper format the way Favereau probably fully intended. He wasn't lying at D23 when he said it might very well be the most technologically advanced film ever made. It makes me want to go back a third time just to study it. Really is mind blowing that Mowgli is basically the only thing in the movie that's not CGI.

I'll be recording a podcast where I'll be diving deep into the film tomorrow night. Until then you can see my sig for how it stacks up to my other favorite movies that have come out so far this year

On a side note, who's seen the new Disney logo that's attached to The Jungle Book? I really hope they keep it. It's a great blend of the 1960s Wonderful World of Color castle logo and the new one we have with the giant river going through the castle. When the camera pulls back from the castle and starts heading west into the JUNGLE...I instantly thought of how geographically accurate that is to how Fantasyland and Adventureland are in proximity to each other and really nerded out

[spacemt354]

So I saw that the Avengers were on tv so I clicked it and this came up

Voldemort you sly dog.

 

[spacemt354]

Neither do I patrick...neither do i.

Connery, Thurman, Fiennes...It's actually a pretty damn solid cast. I would consider watching it if I was bored one night with nothing to do, haha.

I watched it for a while then I got bored and Ant-Man was on so I watched that instead

So, Civil War is getting insane amounts of hype. I've gone on radio silence with reviews to avoid spoilers, but suffice to say I think we might be in for something special. Critics are saying the final fight in particular might be among THE best action scenes ever put on film. I really can't wait to see it. Dr. Strange also looks pretty promising judging by the teaser.

Ah welcome aboard the hype train...I've been on it since last May

The 15 minute Airport fight scene is being touted by some as the best action scene in a film, ever. That's hype. And they say we get match-ups that you'd only dream of.

Well I have 3

Scarlet Witch vs Vision, Spider-Man vs Captain America, Ant-Man vs Iron Man - those are so nutty to think about and I can already see myself squealing in the theater if those happen.

Dr. Strange also looks like Inception which has me very psyched.

 

[TheOriginalTiki]

Keep in mind one of the guys touting the airport scene as the best action scene ever also has Man of Steel as one of his favorite superhero films of all time
