It would seem like a trivial thing to result in the nomination to be rescinded, but it brings to mind, for me at least, the controversy twenty years back over the outcry at highly acclaimed documentaries Hoop Dreams and Crumb not getting Best Documentary nominations because the documentary selection...

I should apologize in advance for sharing this.

The soundtrack has been doing gang-busters since it made its debut at Number 18, moving up the ne...

I imagine with the film about to become only the second from Disney Feature Animation to cross $300 million domestically that a sequel would definitely be under consideration.

Singer announced with a heavy heart that Rogue is being cut from the final film. He explains that the sole sequence she's featured in was extraneous. It will likely be included on the blu ray/DVD (perhaps as part of an extended cut). He did inform Anna of the decision before making it public. Source...
