Behold Yourselves Some ENCHANTED Promotional Art!!

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007


Merrick here…

..with a quick look at ENCHANTED, a title we frequently hear referenced but don’t know much about.

It’s a Disney film about an animated maiden named Giselle who is displaced from her fairy tale kingdom into the “real” (live action) world of New York City. We’re confounded by Giselle’s naive idealism (she sings about love & doesn’t understand how couples don’t always live happily ever after), and she’s bewildered by a land in which animals don’t talk back to her. Eventually, her fairy tale life also transitions to the real world - including her handsome prince, and an evil queen.

Merrick here…

…with a humble aside from PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END.

Specifically, here’s a shot of the Black Pearl set on the Disney lot shortly before her deconstruction, and two images (I don’t believe we’ve seen) of Chow Yun Fat as Sao Feng. He has a great line in the movie: “The only reason I would want Jack Sparrow returned from the realm of the dead is so I can send him back myself!”
