Ponyo
Ponyo the goldfish princess who longs to be human, I can relate
Ponyo (pronounced Pond-Yo) is the cutest movie that is coming out AUGUST 14 from Disney. I am so very excited because I am a huge fan of Hayao Miyazaki(Spirited Away)! The girl looks just like the little girl May from Totoro, which my mom swears is me. So I guess I can be Ponyo too. The movie came out last year in Japanese and will be coming out this year in english. The voice cast includes Matt Damon, Cate Blanchett and a whole slew of young Hollywood.
The film tells the story of a baby goldfish named Ponyo (voiced by Noah Cyrus) who desires to be a human, and gets her wish. She runs away from her home in the sea and befriends a five-year-old human boy named Sosuke (Frankie Jonas). Other cast members include Tina Fey, Cloris Leachman, Liam Neeson, Lily Tomlin and Betty White.Watch the trailer:I think I kinda look like her, what do you think?

Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland
I am absolutely obsessed with fairy tales and Alice in Wonderland is no different. There are so many layers of themes and symbols in this story that any girl with a fantasy can relate to. I have used this theme in past essays, art projects and has inspired me in so many ways. I am really looking forward to this movie and am in the midst of planning something very special… I hope you are in for a treat!
Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice) attempts to work his gothic magic over one of the best loved stories of all time… Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice In Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There’, which first told the story of a young girl, who after following a rabbit down a hole, is transported to a strange world. Whilst the disney version of the tale relied on sweetness and light to delight the audience, Burton fans can be sure to look out for the same cartoon traits as earlier masterpiece ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’.
The traditional tale has been freshened with a blast of girl power, courtesy of writer Linda Woolverton (Beauty and the Beast). Alice, 17, attends a party at a Victorian estate only to find she is about to be proposed to in front of hundreds of snooty society types. Off she runs, following a white rabbit into a hole and ending up in Wonderland, a place she visited 10 years before yet doesn’t remember.
Among those who welcome her back is the Mad Hatter, a part tailor-made for Johnny Depp as he collaborates with Burton for the seventh time. “This character is off his rocker,” Zanuck says.
Aussie actress Mia Wasikowska, 19, best known for HBO’s In Treatment, has the coveted title role. “There is something real, honest and sincere about her,” Zanuck says. “She’s not a typical Hollywood starlet.”
There is the usual Burton-esque ghoulishness (Helena Bonham Carter’s Red Queen, whose favorite retort is “Off with their heads,” has a moat filled with bobbing noggins), but Zanuck assures most kids can handle it. “The book itself is pretty dark,” he notes. “This is for little people and people who read it when they were little 50 years ago.”
coming in March 5, 2010. Can’t wait to fall down the rabbit hole
