Trailer: Planes

Here's the trailer for the not subtle not secret not sequel to Cars 2, Disney's Planes. I have to write the title as Disney's Planes each time to remind myself that Pixar wanted nothing to do with Disney's Planes. Like the f...

Rio 2's release is a year from now, but that didn't stop Blue Sky Studios from teasing it already. There's nothing to go on from here except that Blu and Jewel's three babies have grown up, and the charming Samba and dancing...
