Animation Research Library #PeterPanBluray

The first thing we were told upon entering Disney’s Animation Research Library was, “No pens.” Our exclusive tour of the invaluable Disney property that houses all of its original artwork, sketches, animation cels, maquettes and more was going to be pretty darn special. You can usually tell when you’re brought into a super secret location of a non-descript building out near Los Angeles, California. And as part of a group of 25 Disney bloggers out …

#PeterPanBluray Walt Disney Studios Lot

I’ve been on a number of Disney Blogger trips before and got to go behind the scenes of all sorts of Tinkerbell movies like Tinkerbell and the Legend of the Neverbeast and The Pirate Fairy.

Played by the highly talented Phoebe Waller-Bridge, L3 isn’t just any old droid. Uh uh. She’s hellbent on liberating all droids from enslavement. It may sound ridiculous, but L3 is 100% serious. She obeys her master Lando Calrissian, but not without tossing a few sharp …

Joonas Suotamo – Chatting with Chewbacca #HanSoloEvent

by
Joonas Suotamo SOLO #HanSoloEvent Chewbacca

With a heart as big as his shoe size, Joonas Suotamo was clearly born to play Chewbacca. The nearly seven-foot tall actor took over the mantle of Han Solo’s famous Wookiee sidekick with Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Original legendary actor Peter Mayhew graciously passed the torch over to Joonas, and the big guy hasn’t looked back. A basketball player at Penn State University, the Finnish actor also played in Finland’s basketball league, as well …
