I always love seeing those “Got Milk” ads. Some of my favorite have been Guy Fieri, Hugh Jackman, Susan Sarrandon, Harrison Ford, and Christie Brinkley. But now? Oh yeah — those two adorable monsters beat them all. Check out Mike and Sulley’s new Got Milk ad.

About Monsters University
Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he has dreamed of becoming a Scarer—and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (voice of John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer. The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. To make matters worse, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.
Screaming with laughter and oozing with heart, Disney•Pixar’s “Monsters University” is directed by Dan Scanlon (“Cars,” “Mater and the Ghostlight,” “Tracy”), produced by Kori Rae (“Up,” “The Incredibles,” “Monsters, Inc.”) and features music from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and award-winning composer Randy Newman (“Monsters, Inc.,” “Toy Story 3”).

About the movie
From above the world of “Cars” comes “Disney’s Planes,” an action-packed 3D animated comedy adventure featuring Dusty (voice of Dane Cook), a plane with dreams of competing as a high-flying air racer. But Dusty’s not exactly built for racing—and he happens to be afraid of heights. So he turns to a seasoned naval aviator who helps Dusty qualify to take on the defending champ of the race circuit. Dusty’s courage is put to the ultimate test as he aims to reach heights he never dreamed possible, giving a spellbound world the inspiration to soar. “Disney’s Planes” takes off in theaters on Aug. 9, 2013. For more information, check out Disney.com/Planes, like us on Facebook: facebook.com/DisneyPlanes and follow us on Twitter: twitter.com/DisneyPictures.The film takes off in theaters in 3D on Aug. 9, 2013.

I am a huge fan of Johnny Depp, and I grew up watching The Lone Ranger (God that makes me feel SO old), so I am really looking forward to checking out Disney’s newest movie — The Lone Ranger.
He makes a good Tonto, eh? And — don’t get me started on Armie Hammer. When I was a kid, I wanted to marry The Lone Ranger just so I could holler out ” HI-YO Silver, Away!!!!”. Not to mention that as a kid, he was every girl’s dream. Now — Armie is gonna be that dream. He makes a very nice looking Lone Ranger.
Check out the trailer below:
About the movie

Native American warrior Tonto (Johnny Depp) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid (Armie Hammer), a man of the law, into a legend of justice—taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption.

How cool is it that just a few short weeks ago, I got to walk on the Hollywood Stars?
The stars are the coolest thing ever. We were trying to hurry to the event, so I did not get to read a bunch of the names, so hoping when I go back to L.A. one day, I can take a bit and sight see some.
I heard about someone else getting to walk the stars, only he wasn’t just getting to walk — he was actually receiving his very own Hollywood star! James Franco definitely deserves it. He is an amazing actor and can pretty much play any part thrown at him.
How cute does he look? He is so proud and I am too! Way to go James!!

Find Your Way to Oz is an interactive journey inspired by Sam Raimi’s latest feature film, Oz The Great and Powerful.
Built using advanced web technologies, this Chrome Experiment will take you through a dusty Kansas circus to the vibrant land of Oz. Take a look around – nothing is as it seems.
Can you find your way to Oz?
Click HERE to visit the site and see if you can find Oz!
Like any good circus, there’s plenty to keep you entertained: compose your own music, play with a fun photo booth and create your own movie with a zoetrope. The path to Oz also involves confronting an ominous tornado; surviving it completes the journey, enabling fans of the movie to watch an exclusive unreleased clip from the film.
Chrome Experiments like “Find Your Way to Oz” would have been impossible a few years ago. Since that time, the web has evolved and allowed developers and designers to create immersive beautiful experiences. For “Find Your Way to Oz” the 3D environment was built entirely with new technologies such as WebGL and CSS3. It’s enhanced by rich audio effects thanks to the Web Audio Application Programming Interface (API). The photo booth and zoetrope were built using the getUserMedia feature of WebRTC, which grants webpages access to your computer’s camera and microphone (with your permission).
For the best experience, you’ll need to use an up-to-date computer built to handle intense graphics. It also works best with a webcam and a modern browser that supports WebGL and WebRTC, like Chrome. The experience also works best on For tablet or smartphone users, we have a smaller scale yet equally enjoyable experience that you can try with the latest Chrome browser on your Android device, iPhone or iPad.
If you want to learn more, or run away and join the developer circus, you can get an explanation of the technologies used on the Chromium blog or in Google’s technical case study.

I am being provided an all expenses paid trip by Disney for the #DisneyOzEvent Press Junket. All opinions listed are my own.
I love the Muppets so much! When I got this email yesterday I was SO excited to share it with you. Looks like the Muppets are at it again. I grew up on this show, so anytime I see that Disney is bringing them back to the big screen, I want to hug their necks! Here are the first look images for Muppets Again.
This picture above makes me SO happy because I love Ricky Gervais. He is so funny
About the Muppets…Again
Disney’s “The Muppets …Again!” takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais. The film stars Tina Fey as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Ty Burrell as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon.
Disney’s “The Muppets … Again!” is directed by James Bobin and produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman. Bobin co-wrote the screenplay with Nicholas Stoller, who is also executive producer with John Scotti. Featuring music from Academy Award®-winning songwriter Bret McKenzie, “The Muppets … Again!” hits the big screen March 21, 2014.

Here’s a sneak peek at Walt Disney Studios’ OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL commercial which is set to air during this Sunday’s game. Be sure to check out the witch and all her power as she takes over the Disney.com homepage immediately following the commercial on game day.
New posters available
Here are some new shots of the witches and of course the adorable James Franco!
Disclosure: I’m attending The #DisneyOzEvent . My flight, lodgings, and expenses were covered by Disney. Images provided by Disney. All opinions are 100% mine.
Today was THE best mail day ever! My makeup from @urbandecay411 and nail polish from @opi_products came in today. YES– I will be playing glamor queen all weekend
When I first learned that I would be attending the Red Carpet Premier of Oz the Great and Powerful, I thought I might go with the “wicked witch” look — making sure to wear dark colors, emerald greens and reds — to give myself the sinister look. But in all honesty, that is just not me. I found a dress that I totally love and will be wearing thanks to Unique Vintage, so when my Urban Decay makeup came in today, I knew that Glinda the Good Witch look would be the one I start with.
Wanna see my dress?
I love how the Oz Inspired colors from Urban Decay really make your eyes pop. Each set comes with a color card and instructions on how to give yourself that same look.
On the back of the card, step by step, they tell you which colors to use and where to apply it on your eye so that you can have that same look. Check out the job I did!
I have only ever worn black eyeliner and would have never thought to add the sparkle around my eyes, but I love the end results and I cannot wait to use the Glinda the Good Witch Palette when I walk the Red Carpet in just a few days!
The lip color I am wearing also comes with the Glinda palette as well.
Tomorrow, I will be sharing with you my Theodora look — which is the other palette available from Urban Decay.
Which witch do you think you would like to be?
Don’t forget Oz the Great and Powerful hits the theaters on March 8th, so make plans to attend!
I was provided both Urban Decay Palettes and Opi Nail Polish by Disney as part of the #disneyOzEvent press trip that I will be attending. All opinions listed are my own.
Okay — as a long time fan of the Lone Ranger, I am super excited about this movie. I can remember curling up in my daddy’s lap as we watched when I was a little girl. One of my best memories hands down.I guess that is why I am super excited and cannot wait to see this
To see Johnny Depp playing in this movie is just beyond exciting as well! July 3rd cannot get here soon enough

I want to make my eyes have this dramatic pop to go with my dress — you know that witchy type look. Here are a few ideas I found for eyes that say “Look at my Inner Witch.”

This looks SO Oz related, doesn’t it?
How about this green color? It says Emerald City. I want to do this with my eyes.

- Steven Spielberg (Director/Producer) and Kathleen Kennedy (Producer)
“I’m spinning and beyond thrilled on so many levels. To be included in this amazing group of extraordinary craftsman and exquisite talents has been an honor in itself. But now for us all to receive so much recognition from the Academy I’m deeply appreciative and overwhelmed, and basically, I still can’t believe I got the role.”

About Oz the Great and Powerful
Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great wizard but into a better man as well.
“Oz The Great and Powerful” is produced by Joe Roth, with screen story by Mitchell Kapner and screenplay by Mitchell Kapner and David Lindsay-Abaire. Grant Curtis, Palak Patel, Josh Donen and Philip Steuer are serving as executive producers. “Oz The Great and Powerful” opens in U.S. theaters on March 8, 2013.
