STRANGE MAGIC is in theaters now! See the trailer, get free printables, and images right here!

“Strange Magic,” a new animated film from Lucasfilm Ltd., is a madcap fairy tale musical inspired by “A Midsummer Night's Dream.” Popular songs from the past six decades help tell the tale of a colorful cast of goblins, elves, fairies and imps, and their hilarious misadventures sparked by the battle over a powerful potion. Lucasfilm Animation Singapore and Industrial Light & Magic bring to life the fanciful forest turned upside down with world-class animation and visual effects. Directed by Gary Rydstrom (“Toy Story Toons: Hawaiian Vacation,” “Lifted”) from a story by George Lucas, “Strange Magic” will be released by Touchstone Pictures on Jan. 23, 2015.

This film is imaginative and full of lessons of community and family. The BoxTrolls maybe trolls and look a little scary, but they are a family that loves each other and sticks together.

The BoxTrolls come out at night from underneath the city and take anything that is not nailed down, well they take things that are nailed down too-like numbers off houses. From clocks, toasters, gears, forks, records, and anything else they find laying about in the town they gather it all up and take it to their city beneath the city that is full of treasures and whimsy they have made. The residents of the town fear them and hide in their houses at night.

All the Boxtrolls are troll looking except one little boy named Eggs who grows up and becomes curious of the city above him. One day he ventures into the city during the daylight hours and ends up getting caught by the town's evil worker, Archibald Snatcher . This man gathers up the Boxtrolls trying to rid the city of them and earn the respect of the town's men in power. The ruler of the town is so busy tasting cheese with the other rulers that he does not pay attention to his daughter that keeps warning her dad the BoxTrolls are outside. Things go bad when the evil worker tries to take over the town and kidnaps Winnie. 

"Quirky, mischievous and good-hearted, the Boxtrolls are unique creatures who have lovingly raised a human boy named Eggs in a fantastical charming cavern below the bustling streets of Cheesebridge. But when the evil Archibald Snatcher schemes to capture Eggs’ family, it’s up to Eggs and his feisty new friend Winnie to save the Boxtrolls!

Based upon the book Here Be Monsters!, The Boxtrolls features valuable discussion of “good versus evil” and is funny, clever, exciting, and sometimes even profound. It contains some edgy content is recommended for viewers 12 and over."

PADDINGTON is in theaters this Friday 1/16! Trailer and FREE activitysheets!

PADDINGTON OPENS this Friday, January 16, 2015 in a theater near you. 

Make a date to see it this weekend. This fun loving bear is out for adventure! I've always been a fan of Paddington Bear, it must be that coat! My oldest daughter has a Paddington Bear from years ago when Macy's sold them one Christmas. 

When I was packing my Christmas decorations away I spotted a small plate I bought way before I had kids that was from a gift shop I worked at-Paddington Bear again!

Whatever your age this movie is a family fun time! Make a movie/play date with your children's best friends or go as a family and have dinner at the kids favorite restaurant.

Synopsis

From the beloved novels by Michael Bond and producer David Heyman (HARRY POTTER), PADDINGTON tells the story of the comic misadventures of a young Peruvian bear (voiced by Ben Whishaw) who travels to the city in search of a home. Finding himself lost and alone, he begins to realize that city life is not all he had imagined - until he meets the kindly Brown family who read the label around his neck that says "Please look after this bear. Thank you." and offer him a temporary haven. It looks as though his luck has changed until this rarest of bears catches the eye of a museum taxidermist.
