Pixar Returns Under the Sea for Another 3D Re-Release

You can't help but wonder why these sea turtles sound like surfer dudes.

Andrew Stanton is one of those few directors in recent cinema, who genuinely understands that animation is just not about the set the visuals bar and the abundance of Hollywood voice acting, but it's a medium of art that can bring generations together time and time again. Back in 2003, Disney and Pixar submerged audiences to a world of wonder and as enormous of a canvas as the ocean itself. Technically, it was the ocean itself. But if by chance you were one of the few to miss its original run nearly a decade ago, Disney is re-releasing Finding Nemo 

Finding Nemo starts off with an extremely dark opening for a G-rated film as two clownfish, Marlin (Albert Brooks) and Coral, are forced to defend their anemone home from a menacing barracuda. As a result, Coral is killed as are the majority of their eggs, leaving only Marlin and one egg, an unborn Nemo. The incident leaves Marlin as an overprotective single father. During his first day of school, Nemo (Alexander Gould) defies his high-strung father and ventures off with his classmates to a drop-off point, only to captured by an Australian diver. Frantic for his son's survival, Marlin teams with Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a Blue Tang with memory issues to find his taken son back into theaters with a gouging 3D premium. 

"Raiders" Triumphs Again in Limited IMAX Engagement

The fedora, the bullwhip, the iconic jacket, it can only be one man...Indiana Jones!

Bringing Raiders of the Lost Ark back into theaters was not only a genius way for us to revisit the first of the iconic Indiana Jones franchise, but in typical George Lucas fashion, also a way to introduce younger audiences to the man with the bullwhip and fedora (if a certain Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hadn't already scared the masses away four years ago). That's all fine and nostalgic, but at its core, the re-release of Raiders back into theaters (and for the first time in IMAX as well) is primarily marketed to capitalize on the upcoming Blu-Ray release.
