Nutcracker... Will it contain ballet?
ReplyDeleteI don't think so, but you never know!
DeleteI'm not a big fan of kiddie movies, but I'd watch both of these.
ReplyDeletemethinks PAX will be really touching and we know Lasse makes good movies too
DeleteI'm surprised Disney hasn't mined "Nutcracker" already. "Fox" sounds wonderful too.
ReplyDeletethere were many plans before but none came to fruition :)
DeleteI have such a hard time getting into The Nutcracker. I've watched so many versions of it, and just can't. I'll still give this one a try, but won't have high expectations.
ReplyDeleteAllison is going to see Zootopia with her friends tomorrow. I do hope she enjoys it. It does look like a cute one.
it is getting only great reviews, which doesn't have to mean anything, especially if Rotten Tamatoes is giving it a 100% score and they have zero taste in anything
DeleteDezz loves nutcrackers... :p
DeleteI'm all nuts for nuts
DeleteI rest my case.
Deletewe will all rest in our cases someday
