Shanghai Disneyland Will Open This June, So Start Saving Your Pennies

Posted on at


 

After more than a decade of planning and a five years of construction, the Walt Disney Company has revealed an opening date for their newest theme park. The Shanghai Disney Resort will open its gates on June 16, 2016, bringing the most popular name in themed entertainment to an audience who is becoming more and more important to every media company’s bottom line.

And while we can (and will) dip our toe into what Shanghai Disneyland means in the grand scheme of theme parks, movies, and the future of mass entertainment, we also have to accept that this is one slick looking destination. Full details, including pictures of several new rides and attractions, can be found below.

’50 Shades of Grey’ and ‘Pixels’ Lead the 2016 Razzie Nominations
Posted on Wednesday, January 13th, 2016 by Jacob Hall
 

The 2016 Razzie nominations are here and, as always, they’re patently ridiculous and squander a fun premise so they can pick on obvious and occasionally undeserving targets while ignoring the movies that actually deserve your scorn.

But let’s back up for a moment. The 2016 “Golden Raspberry” nominations, which “celebrate” the worst movies of the year and act as a sort of anti-Oscars, have been revealed. 50 Shades of Grey, Pixels, and Fantastic Four lead the pack. You can check out the full list of nominees below.

Jack Giroux’s Most Anticipated Movies of 2016
Posted on Wednesday, January 13th, 2016 by Jack Giroux
 

As Jacob noted the other day, this is the time of year we get to rest comfortably in our bubbles of excitement. We rarely feel any disappointment this early in the year with what’s hitting theaters (unless you were one of the few really pumped about The Forest), so we’ve yet to reach the point of skepticism about our most anticipated films of the year.

‘Penny Dreadful’ Season 3 Trailer: You Think You Know Evil?
Posted on Wednesday, January 13th, 2016 by Jack Giroux
 

Because I don’t really follow the Golden Globes or other awards coverage that much, I didn’t know Eva Green was nominated for best actress in a TV series for Penny Dreadful. It was delightful to learn she was, though, because Green is terrific in the Showtime drama. The show didn’t score any other nominations, but at least the actress’ ferocious and heartbreaking performance was recognized for the excellent second season.

Penny Dreadful returns this summer, and you can watch the Penny Dreadful season 3 trailer after the jump.
