Can anyone confirm Turbo is playing on the Fantasy?

Thank you!

Thank you!

Is Turbo a Disney film, or distributed by Disney? If not, then it would not be playing.

Edited to add: I just checked IMDB and it is produced by DreamWorks which is affiliated with Disney now...so...maybe!

No. It's not a Disney movie. It will NOT be playing.

From Wikipedia,

On February 9, 2009, DreamWorks entered into a long-term, 30-picture distribution deal with Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures by which the films will be released through the Touchstone Pictures banner.[3] The deal also includes co-funding via a loan by Disney to DreamWorks for production.[3] Originally, the deal included access to slots in Disney's pay television agreement with Starz, but went to Showtime instead.[25] This agreement is reported to have come after negotiations broke off with Universal Pictures just days earlier.[22] However, this deal does not include Indian distribution rights, which will be handled by Reliance.[3] Also not included are sequels to live-action films released before the Paramount merger, or those released by Paramount themselves – Paramount retains the rights to these franchises, and two such sequels, Little Fockers, was released by Paramount internationally in December 2010 (Universal owns domestic rights) and Anchorman: The Legend Continues.


So only some DreamWorks films are released through Disney???? Very confused???

Well, IMDb says that the US distribution is being handled by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, so probably not a Disney property. I would think if Disney was handing the distribution for this film, it would indicate that distribution was being handled through Touchstone.

At least that's how my little brain interprets the information

No snails at Disney!!! No minions or Smurfs or Shrek or Batman either.

 

[twentytoez]

So Planes will show right? Disney-Pixar?

Yes, although it is Disney but not Pixar.

 

[lbgraves]

Yes, although it is Disney but not Pixar.

Well, it's a spin off of a Pixar film [Cars] and the short film it is based on was by Pixar. Also, John Lasseter of Pixar talked about it at the CC gold/platinum event on the Fantasy's MV. Somehow Pixar is involved.

Yes, Planes in Disney. We have been told it will play on the Fantasy when it is released on 8/9. We are on the ship that week and will get to see it!

 

[Donna3271]

hmmm.... I called for the movies on the Alaska 8/26 a WHILE ago and Planes was not mentioned. I am going to call and ask again for Planes. My kids would love it.

Pretty much the rule of thumb, as I understand their confusing deal, is if it's an animation film, Disney is not involved. Animation films are distributed under the DreamWorks Banner. Disney will only play in "live action" films from DreamWorks. Confusing absolutely

Actually, currently John Lasseter is the "Principal Creative Advisor" for Walt Disney Imagineering.

It's too early to call about your 8/26 cruise. You need to wait until you are two weeks out or less before they will have the up to date list of movies.

So is my family! Enjoy the cruise!
