Felixstowe Christmas Day Dip Around 400 fundraisers every year start their seasonal celebrations at the beach opposite Mannings Amusements in aid of St Elizabeth Hospice. Catherine Sheppard, events and challenges fundraiser at the Ipswich hospice, said: “TheChristmas Day Dip is in its 12th year and it’s still such a popular event. It’s a tradition now for families and friends to come down to the beach on Christmas morning and join together to take a dip or watch from the pier as their loved ones run into the cold sea. “There’s always such a great atmosphere at the event, not only with the hundreds of people taking part, but with the thousands who turn out to watch. A lot of people do it in memory of their loved ones who were cared for by the hospice, and all the sponsorship money raised from the event goes towards improving life for local people living with a progressive illness.” This year participants are being encouraged to emulate the launch’s Frozen theme by dres

Frozen 2 Release Date, News, and Spoilers

Frozen is centered around sisterly love, whilst Anna has a lovelife; Christoff is just a bonus but not central to the story of the show. However it seems like in Frozen 2, Queen Elsa‘s love life will be central to the movie. Another rumor suggests that in Frozen 2, Olaf will have a female counterpart. Here’s the latest on ‘Frozen 2‘ release date, news, and rumors. Previously, Chris Buck said that the important thing is that they know where they are going but admitted that they still have a lot of things to figure out. Recently, Chris Buck said that the most important thing is that they know where they want ‘Frozen 2′ to go. Knowing that ‘Frozen‘ was such a major success making a total of $1.3 billion in the box office, it has been deemed to the highest grossing full-features animation movie of all time. And I would totally understand why would that happen, I mean I alone have watched the movie 3 times in the theater. Chris Buck knows what’s at stake for the sequel of

When Does ‘Despicable Me 3′ Come Out?

图片
The Despicable Me franchise enters new territory on July 10 when its first spinoff film, Minions, hits theaters. Although Minions is centered on the now-iconic and extremely popular yellow henchmen from the first two Despicable Me films and features some stellar voice talent in franchise-newcomers Sandra Bullock, Jon Hamm, and Michael Keaton, fans still might be feeling nostalgic for Steve Carell’s Gru and the rest of the Despicable Me gang. Even though a young version of Gru will be making a cameo in Minions, frankly, it’s not enough. We need more Gru in our lives, and it seems the only way to get it is with a proper sequel to 2013′sDespicable Me 2. So, when does Despicable Me 3 come out? While nothing is confirmed, IMDb claims that Despicable Me 3 might be the last go-round for Carell as Gru, the franchise’s star. Carell’s performance (along with the Minions) has largely driven the series to this point, so it makes sense that a lot of people would turn out to bear witness to h

Even animal DMVs are the worst in Disney’s ‘Zootopia’ trailer

If you’re a rabbit in a rush to catch a perp and close the case, never got to a DMV run by sloths. The full trailer for Disney’s newest animated feature, Zootopia, shows an extended look at fast-looking rookie cop Judy Hopps (Ginnife Goodwin) as she and a foxy con artist Nick Wilde(Jason Bateman) try to pull license plate numbers from a sloth at the DMV. Of course, nature wins over and it takes them about half the day to get anything out of the sloth worker because of a poorly timed joke. We have never felt more of a connection to a rabbit before. Mascot costumes are giant, head-to-toe costumes that inspire cheering at a sporting event. Hooray for team spirit! Coolbuyme.com has a menagerie of colorful animal costumes for your high school, college or professional sports mascot to wear. Rah rah, rally the crowd!

‘Frozen 2′ Trailer & Release Date: Plot Includes Olaf Falling In Love With a Human? — Everything We Know So Far!

There is still a long way to go before “ Frozen 2 ,” Disney’s sequel to its blockbuster hit “Frozen,” will hit cinemas. However, with millions of fans all over the world, there is much speculation on the story and characters, including one of the most beloved sidekick, Olaf. Will the funny snowman charm fans with a new love? According to a report from Cross Map, ther e are speculations that Olaf will fall in love in “Frozen 2.” However, there is still no uncertainty if Olaf’s girlfriend is human or made of snow. Telegraph notes that Olaf having a girlfriend is vital for Disney. This new angle will not only make the plot exciting, but it will also boost merchandise sales. Apart from Anna, Kristoff andElsa, one of the most popular characters in “Frozen” is Olaf, and him having a love interest would “send the cuteness factor over the edge.” Josh Gad, the actor who plays Olaf, expressed his excitement for “Frozen 2.” He said to E! News, “I’m just excited that they announced it. I have comp

Frozen 2 Rumors about Olaf’s New Love Interest, Serious Themes Get Stronger!

The sequel to “ Frozen ” is coming, although it will probably be a pretty long wait until we get it. In the meantime, fans will of course argue quit a lot about what the new film might bring to the scene, and there are already some prominent rumors in the community, some of which even make sense and sound quite plausible. Still, it’s important to remember that this film is probably in a relatively early phase of its development so it will take a while before we get any official information about it. And with that in mind, the credibility of those rumors should also be questioned as it’s not very likely that the studio has confirmed some of the finer details of the story yet. Still, it’s interesting to look at rumors like the one about Olaf’s new love interest, and check what the community is saying about the possible developments of the situation. While the new film will still be centered on Anna and Elsa, it’s also rumored that it will add a little more depth to the characte

New ‘Kung Fu Panda 3’ International Trailer Arrives with New Footage

I sincerely hope that everyone is enjoying themselves during this time of year and spending time with friends, family and loved ones. But as always, we still have a good amount of news to cover before the year is out. Some of it is stuff that just broke recently, while others are stories that slipped under our radar due to being very, very busy (Rotoscopers-related or otherwise). But without further ado, let’s get to our first news story of the week. In a few months, Kung Fu Panda 3 will officially mark the beginning of the 2016 year in animation (and yes, I’m choosing to ignore The Nut Job 2 and Norm of the North), and what better introduction to a very promising year for feature animation than the highly-anticipated third chapter in the Kung Fu Panda saga. For those who want to satisfy their need for more footage – assuming you aren’t too afraid of spoilers to watch a trailer at all – than I give you the recent international trailer for Kung Fu Panda 3 below: As you ca

Santa Claus will be delivering puppies to people’s houses on Christmas

The Costal Human Society is looking to send its latest group of rescued animals, 35 puppies from Blairsville, Georgia, home for the holidays to loving families. So much so, that they’re promising to make the rescues a little extra special: The shelter will deliver the pet to the home of the adopter on Christmas Day, dressed as Santa or one of his elves. According to the shelter’s Facebook page, the special promotion begins on Saturday, December 19 when the shelter opens at noon. Adopters can take home the pet then and there if they are approved for adoption, or sign up to have a special delivery made by the good folks from the North Pole on Christmas Day. The shelter will also offer Christmas Eve pick-up if adopters would like to take home their pet earlier. While they are thrilled to be offering the “Home for the Holidays Delivery Service” and hope many adopters will take advantage of it, officials from the shelter do warn that “giving a pet as a gift is not always in

13 Sanity-Saving Tips for Spending Christmas at Disney World

图片
1. Stay at a hotel that offers free shuttle service to the parks. Parking at Disney World can be a beast. Bypass the hassle by choosing a hotel with complimentary shuttle service to and from the parks, like the Waldorf Astoria Orlando or the Hilton Bonnet Creek Orlando. Resorts off the Disney World monorail, which offers round-trip service to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot, are another option. If you do end up driving, Susan Pazera of the Disney Parks Moms Panel recommends taking a photo of your parking spot to help you find it later. 2. Avoid the Magic Kingdom on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve. If you’re itching to see the Christmas Day parade in person, experience it during the (less crowded) days leading up to Christmas, advises Jeff Silsbee, director of guest services at Waldorf Astoria Orlando. (The actual televised parade is filmed around the second weekend of November.) Similarly, the New Year’s Eve fireworks show can be seen on the 30th, says Silsbee. He recommend

2017 was the year of Minions and “isms,” says Merriam-Webster dictionary

In 2017, we had minions on the mind. So says Merriam-Webster. According to the English-language dictionary’s list of most-searched this year, the word for “a servile dependent, follower, or underling” was one of the most searched online, of the year. Minions made headlines in 2017 as one of the highest grossing movies worldwide, and as the subject of a viral YouTube video. But what really wracked our brains was not one word at all, but a kind of word, illustrated by Merrian-Webster’s unusual choice for its annual “Word of the Year”: ism. “Socialism,” “capitalism,” “fascism,” “terrorism,” and “communism” were all among the most-popular searches this year, along with “racism” and “feminism.” As editor-at-large Peter Sokolowski told Quartz, 2017 was a year of news stories that raised a whole host of abstract, difficult concepts we struggled to define—not just a single word around a single event, like “bailout.” He writes in an email, “This simply seems to be a year of h

Kung Fu Panda 3 Directors Alessandro Carloni and Jennifer Yuh

It was eight years ago that audiences first met DreamWork Animation‘s lovable Kung Fu Panda, Po, and five years ago that we last saw the character (voiced by Jack Black) on the big screen. On January 29th, Po is back alongside the Furious Five (voiced by Jackie Chan, David Cross, Angelina Jolie, Lucy Liu, Seth Rogen) and about to come face to face with his birth father (Bryan Cranston). Unfortunately, the “Dragon Warrior” is also about to become targeted by a dangerous new foe, Kai (J.K. Simmons), who has powers and abilities unlike anything Po has ever faced before. Melissa Cobb: We definitely started with something we knew, which was that his dad was going to come to this movie. Jennifer Yuh: After the end of “Kung Fu Panda 2,” we knew the audience would be really mad if the dad didn’t show up. Alessandro Carloni: Plus, coming face to face with your father connects to a universal theme about identity and about the search for self, which perfectly fits within the franchi

‘Kung Fu Panda 3′ Is A Merely Good Entry In A Great Franchise

图片
While visually gorgeous and generally entertaining, this third installment of the DreamWorks Animation DWA -4.00% franchise is a comedown from the first two superb entries. The Box Office: Kung Fu Panda 3 has the distinction of basically being the biggest movie ever to open domestically in the week of January. It was originally slotted for December 23rd of last year before being first shifted to March 18th of this year and then being bounced up to January 29th. The current release date is timed to the Chinese New Year. Said holiday falls on February 8th, and of course the best time to open a movie is the weekend before a holiday, since the presumption is that the holiday bump will lessen the second weekend drop. The film is indeed opening day-and-date with China and a handful of other territories (Russia, South Korea, etc.) before opening over the rest of the world in early March. So the would-be box office narrative for this one won’t be written until long after its dom

Comcast Says ‘Minions’ Is Universal’s Most Profitable Movie Ever

“ Minions ,” the animated summer film starring three yellow creatures that don’t speak a discernible language, is the most profitable film in Universal Pictures’ history. Steve Burke, chief executive officer of Comcast Corp.’s NBCUniversal division, told employees in a memo Wednesday that the picture was among three that each grossed more than $1 billion worldwide in 2015. That was also a first, he said. The memo underscores the success of Universal’s relationship with Chris Meledandri, whose Illumination Entertainment produced “Minions,” the third film in his “Despicable Me” series. He uses animators in France and is known for delivering films at a lower cost than competitors. “Minions,” which hit theaters July 10, took in $1.16 billion in worldwide ticket sales on a production budget of $74 million, according to researcher Box Office Mojo. Universal led the box office for the first time since at least 2000, buoyed by three megahits: “Jurassic World,” “Furious 7” and “Mi
