When Pixar makes a sequel, they make sure to do it right, including all the trimmings. So to promote their Monsters Inc. sequel, Monsters U posted this university style commercial that already has over 400,000 views. There’s even a faux-university website like any other school.
To promote the new castles in the New Fantasyland exhibit at Disney World, Disney Parks teamed up with HGTV’s House Hunters.
They made this fun parody video of Belle, from Disney‘s Beauty and the Beast, looking for a new castle for her and Beast to share their happily ever after.
Over the weekend, the new video has garnered over 135,000 views, and is featured on DisUnplugged, StuffIStole, and Technorati.
All those amazing exhibits at Disney World have to come from somewhere, and surprisingly, many are invented internally at Disney’s own Research Hub.
One of the frontiers in robotics entertainment is creating genuine interactions between people and the actual bots. Playing catch is the next obvious step in humanoid development, and Disney believes they have finally worked out many of the bugs.
They published this video a week ago showing off their humanoid playing catch and juggling with human friends, and now the video stands with over a quarter million views. The video is further featured on TechSpot, TheVerge, PopularScience, and EnGadget.
The future of human and robot interactions will no doubt only grow.
Jimmy Fallon is a big fan of 80′s and 90′s nostalgia. For the latest throw back on his Late Night show, he invited world famous performer Alicia Keys to sing the classic theme song for the 1980′s Disney TV show Gummi Bears.
Her cover has just a little more soul than the original, and already over 150,000 views. The performance is featured on HuffingtonPost, HyperVocal, TheFW, and MarySue.
In honor of the Disney acquisition of the Star Wars franchise, Comediva quickly got to work mashing the two together. What resulted was another Disney princesses and Princess Leia parody, only this time, they spoof the opening song of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, Little Town.
