News Round Up 2017

My mom is a phd holding, state teacher of the year winner, who has taught 6th grade reading pretty much my entire life. She's only retiring next year (because she loves it that much, she didn't have to work) when the movie is released. She's been teaching that book for decades. That's how much she loves it and sees it as a larger reading gateway. I hope your kids love it as much as the kids she's taught.

You differently should. The audio book is very well done too if you have any long drives coming up. A Wrinkle in Time was our kids intro to SciFi lit.

Definitely want to read the book - but not sure if better to read it first, or will that sort of ruin the movie (since a lot of times the movie doesn't live up to reading the book), at after seeing the movie

AT-AT Popcorn "Bucket" looks like a small dog... I can only see it sticking out of some woman's purse like an over-sized chihuahua...

I get you. It is frequently the case. Then you get the flip side of that with Dune. If you hadn't read the book you pretty much had no idea what was going on it the movie.

Just saw Coco...

First off the Frozen short. I actually liked it. Was it long? Sure, but it was entertaining and had some great moments.

Coco is just beautifully animated. There were some moments where the detail was so incredible I questioned if it was a real image. The story is great as well. I highly recommend the film. It kept my attention the whole time and yes there were some sad parts. There was a sort of twist I didn't expect at first as well. Definitely one of Pixar's better films (not Cars 2 or Good Dinosaur).

I'm probably going to see it in the next couple of days. I'm really excited to see it!

The frozen film before the show was excellent. Coco was good but nothing great.

I think the opposite but too each their own.

It's a fantastic book and it looks like Disney killed it from the previews. I got goose bumps. I'm really excited to see it and I hate everything (except for Star Wars).

I thought Frozen was cute and I completely understand why Disney put it in front of Coco. Yes, it was 22 minutes, but I knew that going in and it did not negatively affect my Coco viewing experience.

I thought Coco was great! It was visually stunning and I agree 100% that some of the scenes looked real, not animated. No spoilers, but the story was cute and the end really got me. Pixar knows how to play with my emotions!

I was so pleased with Coco that I ordered my first limited edition MagicBand when I got home and am eagerly awaiting confirmation that the Gran Fiesta Tour will be reimagined.

2020 seems so far away for another original Pixar movie...

I though they could have cut ~5 minutes from the Frozen short and it would have been better. I enjoyed the beginning but then felt like it dragged - not a good sign for a short

Please don't mention Cars 2 and Coco in the same sentence
