.:: Disney Talks ::.

I got a letter from one of Skandar Keynes’ fans. I think she thinks that I am Skandar. However, I’m only a regular person who loves Narnia a lot, so I made this blog, to discuss about Narnia and Walt Disney (although Narnia will not be produced by Walt Disney anymore).

However, I think it is better for me to quote the letter. Perhaps someday the real Skandar Keynes will visit my blog and read it
“hi skandar keynes. i am bakhtawar
I saw your movie you looks good you was nice & cute in that your style was attractive in this and I fall on you I don’t like any body in this world after you I am extremely unstoppable to meet you and got some information about you from internet and I told to my mom and show her your movie and my mom likes your movie and do you know what she told me , she said skandar is my son and she gives you blesses and she pray that you will be successful in your whole life

Disneytalks ~ Rapunzel and Flynn from Tangled

Here is the concept art of the newest Disney’s movie: “Tangled”. It will be released on November 24, 2010. The picture shown is the two main characters, Rapunzel (sound by Mandy Moore) and Flynn. The songs in this movie will be composed by Alan Menken, the 8-times Oscar Winner, and also Glenn Slater. These two musicians once worked together in Disney’s Home on The Range.

So, prepare youselves for this!!!

Do you like Princess and the Frog? Do you love the music? If your answers to both questions are “Yes”, then you should download application named “Bayou Beas” for your iPod/iPhone.

As seen on the picture (I captured it right from my iPod), the game needs music to play. You can choose some songs to be played, and all of the songs are from the original soundtrack of Walt Disney’s “Princess and the Frog”.

All you have to do is to hit the crown when the lights up. Listen to the music to help you finding the beats.

On Extras menu, you can see short character-clips that never been seen on the movie before. You can choose Tiana, Big Mama and other characters, Naveen, or Louie. You can also watch the full version of music video “Never Knew I Needed” by Ne-Yo.

So, what are you waiting for? Open your iTunes and find Bayou Beats right now! And guess the best part! It’s free!!

Congratulations for Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Studio!!!

“Up” has won two categories of Golden Globe awards. In “The Best Animation Feature Film” category, “Up” has defeated its competitor such as “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”, “Fantastic Mr. Fox”, “Coraline”, and other Walt Disney movie, “Princess and the Frog”.

While in “The Best Original Score” category, Michael Giacchino as the composer of “Up” has defeated James Horner from the-best-movie-winner “Avatar”, and other composers in other movies; “The Informant!”, “A Single Man”, and “Where The Wild Things Are”.

Good job! Once again, congratulations! Well, the journey which has been done by Carl, Russel, Kevin, and Dug has brought them success, although it cost a house and a GPS (lol).

Once again, congratulations! We’ll always love your movies… Can’t wait to see your other movies…

Following my previous post about Princess and The Frog, now I want to give you the list of the characters and its dubbers… The information I got is from IMDB and Wikipedia, as well as its pictures

The first one is Anika Noni Rose. She is the voice of the newest princess from Disney Family, which is the first African American princess in Disney Princesses, Tiana. Rose defeated Jennifer Hudson and Tyra Banks to have this role. Well in the movie, Tiana is actually a 19-year-old waitress and aspiring chef who dreams of owning her own restaurant one day. Her fate changes when she meets a frog who’s asking to be kissed so he can change bank into a prince. Instead of finding a handsome prince, Tiana finds herself become a frog too.

Who is the ‘prince’ that has made Tiana into a frog? He is Prince Naveen. His voice is dubbed by Bruno Campos (we know him from Nip/Tuck the series). He is actually a prince who comes to the French Quarter for the jazz scene. Tiana and her best friend, Charlotte fall in love with him. But then he was cursed by Dr. Facilier into a frog.

Tiana’s best friend, Charlotte “Lottie” La Bouff, was voiced by Jennifer Cody. Like Tiana, Charlotte also wants to marry a prince and become a princess.

The evil from this movie which has cursed Prince Naveen is Doctor Facilier, which was voiced by Keith David (voice of Decepticon Barricade on Transformers the Video Game). He was originally named "Doctor Duvalier" and was a voodoo magician and fortune teller. He misled Naveen to make a deal that has transformed him into a frog (‘Green” for Dr. Facilier is frog, while for Naveen is money). As quoted from Wikipedia, Keith David described Facilier as “A schemer, a conjurer and a sorcerer of sorts.”

Like every other princess has, Tiana also has a ‘fairy Godmother’. She is Mama Odie, which was voiced by Jennifer Lewis. Mama Odie is a 197-year-old blind woman who knows voodoo. She also has a snake as her pet, called JuJu.

The other character who also helps the frogs is Ray, a firefly who is in love with Evening Star (Venus) because he thinks it’s another firefly. Ray helps Tiana and Naveen to meet Mama Odie. Ray was voiced by Jim Cummings, who is known as the voice of Winnie The Pooh and Tiger.

We also cannot forget Michael-Leon Wooley as Louis, an alligator who can sing jazz and play trumpet. You won’t be afraid if you meet Louis, because his only dream is to become a human and join a jazz band. Haha…

As a prince, Naveen also has a valet. He is Lawrence, who was voiced by Peter Bartlett.

Tiana’s mother, Eudora, was voiced by Oprah Winfrey (who doesn’t know her…).  Angela Bassett was originally rumored to be slated for the role.

Tiana’s father, James, was voiced by Terrence Howard (known from his role in Iron Man). He shares dream with his daughter, to have a restaurant of their own.

The young Tiana and Charlotte were voiced by Elizabeth Dampier and Breanna Brooks. They loved hearing the story of “The Frog Prince” from Eudora.

Besides all these actors and actresses, there are still some characters which are not mentioned here, such as Don Hall as the frog hunter, Darnell; Emeril Lagasse as Marlon, an alligator, John Goodman as Big Daddy La Bouff, the richest man; etc.

Don’t forget to buy "Princess and the Frog" the soundtrack . It was composed by Randy Newman, who have won a lot of awards for his works, such as in Toy Story, Monsters Inc., etc. Or feel free to cook like Tiana, follow her recipes in the cook book . You can also play the game. See other products below!

Do you still remember my previous post about The Newest Princess from Walt Disney?

Walt Disney Animation Studios presents the musical THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG, an animated comedy set in the great city of New Orleans. From the creators of “The Little Mermaid” and “Aladdin” comes a modern twist on a classic tale, featuring a beautiful girl named Tiana (ANIKA NONI ROSE), a frog prince who desperately wants to be human again, and a fateful kiss that leads them both on a hilarious adventure through the mystical bayous of Louisiana. THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG marks the return to hand-drawn animation from the revered team of John Musker and Ron Clements, with music by Oscar®-winning composer Randy Newman.

It’s supposed to be played on theatres on your country now or soon… Tell us if you’ve watched it!

Walt Disney on Business & the Walt Disney company
“There’s a great feeling of satisfaction in winning an award for a job well done,
whether it be for winning a footrace, designing a rocket, or making a motion picture. Now we haven’t done too well with the first two on the list, but pictures, that’s something else. No one person can take credit for the success of a motion picture. It’s strictly a team effort. From the time the story is written to the time the final release print comes off the printer, hundreds of people are involved-each one doing a job-each job contributing to the final product. And, if the picture wins an award, the feeling of satisfaction we were speaking of can rightfully be shared by each and every one.”
