Reliving Disney Magic In 3D
Published on Thursday, January 26, 2012 by caryn As someone who is passionate about film, I'm looking forward to reliving some of my favorite Disney movies through 3D. Disney recently re-released it's second classic film in 3D, Beauty and the Beast, and over the coming year, they'll do the same for Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc., and The Little Mermaid.

Paige O’Hara…On Being a Disney Pr...
Published on Friday, January 13, 2012 by caryn It was 1991, in the midst of the Disney Renaissance. Beauty and the Beast, the third of ten films released during this ten year time period, wasn't even complete when it was shown at the New York Film Festival. But the filmmakers and artists, particularly Paige O'Hara who voices Belle, knew the film would be special. As an actress on Broadway, O'Hara knew how to... Read More » -

In Theaters: Beauty and the Beast in 3D
Published on Thursday, January 12, 2012 by caryn There are some films so remarkable...their stories so timeless and compelling...that even 20 years later they have the capacity to evoke deep emotion. Last Saturday, when I took my son to see Beauty and the Beast in 3D at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, I cried, much like I did the very first time I saw it as a tween. It's a story we know and love...about ... Read More » -

A Walk Through the New Amsterdam Theatre
Published on Saturday, December 31, 2011 by caryn As someone with a passion for the arts, I'm always intrigued by the intricate details that go into a live production. One of the most unique experiences to date was a private tour and walk through of the New Amsterdam Theatre, which is the current home of Mary Poppins on Broadway. Built in the early 1900's, the theater is the oldest venue on Broadway (along with... Read More » -

iCapture: Walt Disney Studios
Published on Friday, December 30, 2011 by caryn Over the past few years, I've developed this incredible passion for photography. Since purchasing the iPhone earlier this year, I've come to rely on it's 5-megapixels camera for those brilliant, unexpected moments when my official camera is at home. Surprisingly, the iPhone camera takes some incredible photos...photos that I've actually used on this site because they ... Read More » -

Merry Christmas…Disney Style!
Published on Saturday, December 24, 2011 by caryn There are very few things that I "collect," however, for as long as I can remember, I've frequented The Disney Store each year at this time to infuse our holiday decor and celebrations with a little Disney magic. This year, we added two new ornaments to our collection... This Mickey & Minnie Ornament Set is simple, elegant, and unique. Each ornament is designed... Read More » -

Mary Poppins Live On Stage at The New Amsterd...
Published on Friday, December 16, 2011 by caryn There is nothing quite like the experience of seeing a musical live on stage in New York City. On any given night (minus the "dark" days) the theaters on Broadway are bustling with locals and visitors with a passion for the arts. But just a short time ago, the area where The New Amsterdam Theatre is located, was a very different place. Many may not know that Disne... Read More » -

Published on Thursday, December 15, 2011 by caryn This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Lisa Weidknecht. Congrats! As a mom to a four year old boy, trains come highly recommended, not only because my son could spend quite a bit of time playing with them, but because they are relatively easy to clean up and encourage imagination and interactive play. Since the hit Disney Junior show Chu... Read More » -

iCapture: New York City
Published on Friday, December 9, 2011 by caryn As for New York City, it is a place apart. There is not its match in any other country in the world. Pearl S. Buck It's one of my favorite cities in the world...glitzy and glamourous...whimsical and sentimental...contemporary yet historic. There are not many cities I'd want to live in, outside of Southern California. But oh how I'd love to spend a year or three in... Read More » -

War Horse Premieres in New York City
Published on Thursday, December 8, 2011 by caryn Somewhere during my teen years, our smallish family of three made it a tradition to see a movie on Christmas Day. We'd wake up early, grab breakfast (out, of course) and head to the theater for that film...that much anticipated holiday film of the season. This year, I expect War Horse to be that film. Unlike most red carpet premieres, traditionally held in Los ... Read More » -

Published on Thursday, December 1, 2011 by caryn One of the things I struggle constantly with as a parent is determining how much screen time is appropriate, and the type of programming that is acceptable. I know that when my son is watching Disney Junior, he's being exposed to age-appropriate content that is stimulating, educational, and interactive.

Coming in second overall at the box office and number one for family film, The Muppets delighted and entertained audiences across the country.

The Muppets Debut on the Big Screen!
Published on Thursday, November 24, 2011 by caryn Of all the theatrical film releases I've anticipated this year, The Muppets tops the list. Unlike most films, there is a bit of history with The Muppets.

A First Look at The Muppets
Published on Sunday, November 13, 2011 by caryn Like many in my age group, I grew up watching The Muppets. Last week when I saw the film for the first time, it brought back childhood memories of watching the show with my father. Most who grew up with The Muppets would admit that what's endearing and enduring about them is their optimistic outlook on the world. We're just 10 days until the Thanksgiving opening...

Published on Saturday, November 12, 2011 by caryn Growing up, it was just the three of us. My extended family is spread out across the US so our holidays weren't always traditional. Some years we traveled, but mostly we stayed home, relaxed, and spent quality time together. I don't remember when we started the tradition, but going to see a newly release film on Christmas Day became something we all looked forward t... Read More » -
