End of Era for Disney's Buena Vista Label
(via)n an effort to minimize marketing costs associated with its numerous brands, Disney will streamline many of its brand names to Disney, ABC or ESPN.

Review: Meet the Robinsons
(via)My children loved last year's Disney hit Cars, so we couldn't wait to see Meet The Robinsons. We'd been watching the trailers with the musical frogs and the dinosaur with "a big head and little arms" since the Superbowl. If you can make it through the rough, jerky beginning, the film proves itself to be a worthwhile watch with a few good messages for the children.
