Britney Spears Will Release New Song ‘Ooh La La’ With ‘The Smurfs 2′
17 April 2013 10:23 AM, PDT | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »
Alright, now that all of that Man of Steel business is over with, we can get to the real news. That guilty pleasure news. Many of you will (secretly) be excited to hear that Britney Spears will release her new song “Ooh La La” with The Smurfs 2, according to Sony.
Britney Spears told Sony that she wanted to surprise her kids with a song in the film. Spears said:
I have always loved the Smurfs as a kid and now my boys are the biggest Smurfs fans Ever. I wanted to surprise them with a song in the movie. I know they’ll think it’s Smurftastic!
Smurfs 2 director Raja Gosnell, not one to be outwitted with Smurf word play, said:
I am very excited that Britney is joining our smurfy adventure. ‘Ooh La La’ is the perfect Smurf-party song, and the perfect button on the film for audiences around the world. »

5 Reasons The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy Needs A Sequel
26 March 2013 2:18 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
The 2005 film adaption of Douglas Adams’ beloved novel was the very definition of modest success. Despite pleasing the majority of fans, it got mixed critical reviews and decent box office returns. However, the film was not enough of a success for anyone to commission a sequel, citing primarily the fact the movie had not earned enough money.
Nonetheless, many people still demand a movie based off the original novel’s sequel, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. In fact, there are many different reasons we need a sequel based off the book. Let’s review a few of these, shall we?
5. It Can Learn From Past Mistakes
The original film (abbreviated H2G2) had some tepid reviews, but not really anything outright negative. It would be an easy matter for the producers and writers of a sequel to learn from these reviews, find what went wrong the first time around, »

'Wreck-It Ralph' Tops the 2013 Annie Awards
4 February 2013 6:54 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
I really don't put much stock in the International Animated Film Society's 2013 Annie Awards, which is why I didn't rush to report on their results on Saturday. One year Disney and Pixar boycott the event, feeling there was an unfair advantage paid to larger contributing sponsors, DreamWorks being the primary example. So with such a nasty stench over the event what good does it do to pay it much mind? That said, I'll be brief in mentioning Wreck-It Ralph topped Saturday night's winners with five awards, including Best Animated Picture. The awards have something like a 75% streak when it comes to helping predict the eventual Oscar winner for Best Animated Feature and as the days have gone on, it's looking more and more like Ralph will be this year's winner (see my predictions here). Pixar's Brave, Laika's ParaNorman and DreamWorks' Rise of the Guardians each took home two awards in lesser, »

Extended Thoughts on ‘The Rescuers Down Under’
26 January 2013 2:00 AM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Directed by Hendel Butoy and Mike Gabriel
Written by Jim Cox, Karey Kirkpatrick, Byron Simpson, Joe Ranft
Starring Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor, George C. Scott
The level of faith the Walt Disney Company places in its own products never ceases to be amazing if inexplicable. Each era at this massive corporation is so categorically different from what came before, well back into when Disney was still a struggling film studio desperately trying to pay the bills with its shorts or, at the time, a handful of massively ambitious feature-length animated films. Thus, the faith placed in the product has always shifted. However, the Mouse House’s modern era, beginning in 1984, when Michael Eisner, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and the late Frank Wells began their tenure in various high-level positions, has been concurrently maddening and glorious to behold. Whether we like it or not, Disney fans are something of »
