That's right! In case you already didn't know, Disney has been filming a movie based on one of my all time favorite Princess villians - Maleficent. And based on the recent release of the trailer for the 2014 movie it's going to be AMAZEBALLS. Don't believe - check it out for yourself....

 

 

 I mean I seriously don't think you could have cast anyone better than Angelina Jolie as the wickedly stunning sorceress who curses Princess Aurora (aka Sleeping Beauty) after being left out of her birth celebration. And looks like Elle Fanning is as "Doe-Eyed" as ever. I'm just excited to see Flora, Fauna & Merryweather. As one of my favorite (and slightly under rated) princess movies, this live-action version looks to be a winner! What do you guys think?

50 Best: This Kiss This Kiss

I've never really been a huge fan of Valentine's Day. It's not that I hate the holiday or am Anti-Valentine's Day but I think I just liked it better in elementary school. You know, when you made Valentine's mailboxes in class, gave cards with pictures from your favorite movie or TV show and there was always lots and lots of candy. Those were the days... :)

But despite my feelings for v-day I will always be a sucker for Hollywood romances. And by that I mean onscreen kisses. I got this month's LA Times Magazine with the Sunday paper and I was pleasantly surprised to see their 50 best this month was 50 Classic Movie Kisses. With the first kiss being from 1896 and number 50 from 2009 it was pretty interesting to see how things have changed over the last 100 plus years with movies in general.

Even though I had seen almost all the movies listed (I'm a huge film fanatic thanks to my father!) I still enjoyed remembering each scene. A few of my favorites were #19 (I think we established I am a Disney freak!), #23, #31 (Ali McGraw is sooo beautiful in this movie!) and of course.... #46! Curious to know what those are? Head over here to list. You can also click on each picture to view a clip of the kiss! Let me know what your favorites are! :) Happy Wednesday! xoxo

Ah Ah Ah... Ah Ah Ah... Ah Ah Ahhhhhhhh....

Disney was 100% a staple in my childhood. I owned every single Disney movie and watched each 1000 times. My parents bought me princess everything (bedspread, clothing, toys, sleeping bags, dolls). I had homemade Belle and Ariel costumes. I could go on and on and on.... I was Disney obsessed. I dreamed of talking to animals, singing songs, wearing glittering gowns and just being a beautiful princess. The truth is I still love Disney to this day. So imagine my excitement when Enchanted came out a few years ago. I was practically bursting with all those childhood memories and I forced my husband's family to go see it for their traditional Thanksgiving movie. They now call me Princess NiNi and you know I really don't mind the nickname all that much :) But I loved the movie! It was so funny, had fantastic music, and of course it wouldn't have been complete without a talking chipmunk. I especially enjoyed all the elements of past Disney stories incorporated into one. Well if you loved it as much as I did, be prepared to watch "True Love's Kiss" happen again!

Disney announced on Wednesday that they have plans to film an Enchanted sequel. While it hasn't been confirmed that all the originals actors will return I can't imagine them not wanting to. Getting paid to dance, sing and make little girls (ok and some big girls too) around the world happy?? I think that's a no brainer.

For a little Friday enjoyment click here for the song inspired by several songs from The Little Mermaid. Nothing like a little calypso/island beat to put you in a good mood. :) Happy Weekend!!! xoxo
