Well, what better way to wake up in the first day of the new year
than with the sight of animals (unless you woke up drunk this morning in
some dark alley with angry rats and peculiar looking cats starring at
you hungrily)? Let us check out some of the 2014 films which will have
animals as the main stars:
DISNEY'S 'BEARS'
THE STORY OF CARING FAMILY
In an epic story of breathtaking scale, Disneynature’s new True Life Adventure BEARS showcases a year in the life of two mother bears as they impart life lessons to their impressionable young cubs. Set against a majestic Alaskan backdrop teeming with life, their journey begins as winter comes to an end and the bears emerge from hibernation to face the bitter cold. The world outside is exciting, but risky, as the cubs’
playful descent down the mountain carries with it a looming threat of
avalanches. As the season changes from spring to summer, the brown bear families must work together to find food, ultimately feasting at a plentiful salmon run, while staying safe from predators, including an ever-present wolf pack. Coming out this April, BEARS captures the fast-moving action and suspense of life in one of the planet’s last great wildernesses, where mothers definitely know best and their cubs’ survival hinges on family togetherness.
ISLAND OF LEMURS
MADAGASCAR ADVENTURE
Distant African cousins of bears, ever so delightful and mischievous lemurs await you in ISLAND OF LEMURS: MADAGASCAR family documentary film this April as well. Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman narrates the documentary about the incredible true story of nature’s greatest explorers — lemurs. Captured with IMAX 3D cameras ISLAND OF LEMURS: MADAGASCAR takes audiences on a spectacular journey to the remote and wondrous world of Madagascar. Lemurs arrived there as castaways millions of years ago and evolved into hundreds of diverse species but are now highly endangered. Join trailblazing scientist Patricia Wright on her lifelong mission to help these strange and adorable creatures survive in the modern world.
You can never go wrong with bears and lemurs. Happy new year and best 2014 wishes to you!
ReplyDeletethat also goes for coons and possums, Debs :)
DeleteHa! No, I didn't wake up in an alley with strange cats licking my face. Just my strange dog. :PP
ReplyDeleteLemurs and bears and rats, oh my, what a great New Years Day post, Dezzy. You've brought out the naturalist in me. I'd watch either of those shows.
Happy New Year to you. Wishing you all good things for 2014. You deserve it. :)))
Well, you never how much my readers could end up drunk and wake up in curious places on the first morning of the new year :)
DeleteSuch delightful two trailers, aren't they?
PS I think I might have a post on OUTLANDER later this week with tones of set pics :)
Thanks, Andrew, wishing you the same
ReplyDeleteHey - these sound great. I'm hoping they're accurate and don't Disney-ize them too much. Thanks for posting about them! Love that Bears cover!
ReplyDeleteI love the bear poster too, Terry!
DeleteHey Dezzy - Popped in to say Hello 2014 and Happy Dezzy. Wait, I messed that up. Or did I?????
ReplyDeleteWishing you lots of good cake bakes and a fun productive 2014. Cheers and a great BIG BOOGIE BOOGIE.

DeleteHere's this being YOUR year.
Deletewould be a lovely change
DeleteThey are perfect films for you, my dear Dezz !!
ReplyDeleteindeed, you know how much I love animals!
DeleteBears are so popular these days! Have a Happy New Year, Dezzy.
ReplyDeleteHow could they not be, they're so adorable :) Thanks, you too!
DeleteBears looks good to me since it is done at a distance watching them behave in their environment. I cry at these kind of things, just seeing these exquisite animals with their sensory systems, bodies and brains perfectly adapted to their habitat. Lemurs, well they will make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteDarling, did I somehow miss your hotty special?
I didn't have a hotty special, dear, but a touching one at Christmas :)
DeleteLemurs are such circus stars :)
I remember when Disney was on weekly, and had many nature stories. Of course, now there is AnimalPlanet to watch, but I miss those days. Guess I'm getting sentimental about my childhood in my old age :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Dezzy.
......dhole
Most of shows which resemble these movies can be seen at Discovery, Animal Planet mostly shows cats from hell, pet rescues and such shows which make you sad instead of happy :(
DeleteWhat great trailers! Thanks for sharing:) Happy New Year's, Dez.
