Julie Andrews as The Blue Fairy.......
 

...and Rachel Weisz as Snow White.




These are the latest YOAMD promotional pics from Disney.
The YOAMD sucks but the pics look great!

Bunnies!
And isn't that Abigail Breslin with the Blue Fairy?

I want to see Carrie Fisher as Medusa from The Rescuers.

Ha! That's great!

Also Roger Federer as King Arthur.

But WTF is King Arthur doing in Disney Parks? Sure, there's Wart from Sword in the Stone, but this seems a bit reaching!

Breslin is one of the fairies from the Disney Fairies spin-off; I don't think it's iconic enough to be included (but I love Breslin so I'll let it slide.)

Weisz looks lovely, and perfect.

Who's Roger Federer? Is that Britney's ex?

That's a joke, right?

Or maybe you're just not familiar with tennis. He's generally considered the best male tennis player of all time. (We saw him play a few years ago, he's terrific. He blows every other tennis player out of the water.)

Oh. No, I didn't know who he was. I Googled him.
:)

I was thinking of that Federline guy.

I had to look him up too.

I never heard of him either ... but, damn, he's hot as King Arthur!



And I don't think that character's a stretch at all. He's shown pulling the sword from the stone ... an event which happens in a Walt-era Disney animated film.


Oh sure, he's a far cry from Wart ... but it's a revisualing I'm very pleased with.

Rachel Weisz is stunning as Snow White.

But Julie Andrews as The Blue Fairy! HAHAHAHAHAHA! Love it. :cheers:

It's a park dream. And King Arthur has that oddly spelled (to me, at least) "Carrousel." And that sword/stone thingie in front of it.

Wrong King Arthur. Sleeping Beauty's dad isn't the guy who pulled the sword from the stone. I'm with LSPE, this fantasy doesn't quite work, though Federer is rather hot.


We saw the Snow White one from the freeway. Bunnies! :D

Huh, Sleeping Beauty's dad? I don't get the reference.



Priceless as Julie Andrews is as The Blue Fairy ... how is imagining her in a world of tree fairies - never even implied in Pinocchio - - any less of a stretch than having Arthur pull the sword from the stone when he's a little bit older (and infinitely hotter) than in the Disney film?

I don't get the reference either. Sleeping Beauty's dad in the Disney movie is Stefan, and her father-in-law is King Hubert.

I was referring to the fact that the attraction in the middle of Fantasyland is called "King Arthur's Carrousel," and that the sword (in the stone) sits in front of it.

Since the series of photos is supposed to represent things from Disney parks, I just assumed that that's why it's OK to use Arthur.

How was Prince Phillip attacking Maleficent Dragon something from the Disney parks?


Eh, whether it's parks or movies, The Sword in the Stone fits both. Hotty King Arthur works on every level.

:D

Granted, it's a similar stretch (a la Arthur), but Philip appears in the parks as a character (parades, mostly), while Maleficent as a dragon appears in the US in Fantasmic and until recently in the Cinderella Mystery Castle attraction in Tokyo.

I guess that Disney animation, as represented in the parks, is pretty short on adult male iconic heroes...

Interesting how all the beautiful heroines are played by actresses, yet the hot heroes are played by sports figures.

Does anyone have these thee new images full size?
I have the other three at 528kb.

Agreed, nice to see her out more. And that is a great photo!

Good evening, this is Julie Andrews. Fifty days ago, I explored the joy and magic of dissolving pixies with snail bait.

Really thought, I like the photos!!! I wish they made them poster sized, especially the Beckham one from last year.

Big desktop sized versions of the three newest pictures can be found here, here, and here.

I like the bunnies in the Snow White picture, and they look like they are alive and probably having a great time frisking around Snow White's dress, but the other animals in that picture look suspiciously taxidermized to me.

^^ heh well if one HAD to be a Disney Princess, taxidermy would be a really easy field to get into.

article here.

That picture proves nothing! She could be giving that fawn poison in order to taxidermy him.
:D

I'm certainly happy to be proven wrong on this one. Now, if only something could be done for the animals in the Grand Canyon diorama.

Oh boy, do I agree! I rode the train in September and was shocked at how dusty, musty everything looked. Am industrial strength dust buster is needed!

I didnt read his article, but another one said tha tthey tried to use real animals, and it just didnt work out.

Heh- Teresa and I rode it on Saturday and I remarked that those animals had been dead longer than I had been alive.

Wait a minute. That faun she's milk-feeding is normal size. And the one in the finished portrait is freakishly miniaturized.


I call shenanigans.

The fawn in the picture looks like one of our dogs with dots painted on it.
