How to Train Your Dragon 2 Teaser Generating Buzz!

The Highly anticipated sequel to the DreamWorks hit, How to Train Your Dragon, is expected to release June 20th, 2014, and here's some pictures from our first look!



The story takes place five years after the original story, which is why we can see here that Hiccup and Astrid are obviously much more matured.

“The thrilling second chapter of the epic “How to Train Your Dragon” trilogy brings back the fantastical world of Hiccup and Toothless five years later. While Astrid, Snoutlout and the rest of the gang are challenging each other to dragon races (the island’s new favorite contact sport), the now inseparable pair journey through the skies, charting unmapped territories and exploring new worlds. When one of their adventures leads to the discovery of a secret ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace.”

Are you excited for How to Train Your Dragon 2?

Top 5 Disney Princesses

When we imagine a Disney Princess, many of us picture a beautiful girl in a flowing dress with her prince charming. However, what defines a Disney Princess. Most people have a preconceived stereotype that Disney Princesses are dependent young girls who can't handle themselves. This is why I made a list of my personal favorite Top 5 Disney Princesses.


BRAVE's Princess Merida5. Merida

Like many in the list, Merida wasn't the first princess not to agree with the marriage plans set by her parents, but she went so far as to fight for her own hand in marriage. Merida also isn't on the best of terms with her own mother throughout much of the film, but she remains strong and learns her lessons.



4. Jasmine


Marriage was the LAST thing on Jasmine's mind throughout much of the movie, and even if it was, she refused to be inferior to any man. Princess Jasmine may not be the main character in her film, but she still manages to achieve what she wants due to her persistence. She is very head-strong and independent.



                                           3. Pocahontas

We all know that marriage wasn't the first thing on Pocahontas' mind at the beginning of the movie. Throughout the whole film, Pocahontas remained head-strong and independent, even after she met John Smith. Although she was borderline desperately in love, we won't judge because she still managed to save John's life as well as change the mentality of two armies of people.




2. Mulan

We all know Mulan is the famed heroine of China, and one thing that's unique about her is she pretty much did it all on her own. From the beginning of the story, we learned that Mulan is an independent girl who didn't need a man to get by. Despite everyone going against her, Mulan still was able to save the day.


1. Tiana

TIana, in my opinion, is the most head-strong and independent of all of the Disney Princesses. She is the only princess with a real job, and actually doesn't believe in the idea of a fairy tale dream come true. Even after she meets Naveen, she still proves the leader of the group, not only because Naveen is a lazy prince who can't really do anything, but she shows in her knowledge and skill that through hard work, dreams come true.

Monsters University

Hey guys! Sorry for the long wait for a new post, but I have great news! I was able to see Monsters University today, and I am pleased to say it was SPECTACULAR!

Although many scenes in the movie wouldn't make sense unless you've seen the original Monsters Inc. the film is still a great stand-alone piece with a whole new story to tell, including hilarious and unique new characters.

The story takes place at Monsters University where an eager Mike is determined to become a top-notch scarer, but is constantly belittled, constantly told he is not scary enough to become a professional scarer. After Mike, as well as Sully, is kicked out of the scaring program, the two embark on a mission to win the Scare Games with their new fraternity, Oozma Kappa.


I won't spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it, but I highly recommend it to viewers of all ages!
