Book & Movie Announcements:

  • The trailer for Disney’s live-action Cinderella remake is out… and pretty but remarkably uninformative.

It’s due out next March.

    Wonderful roundup as always and those lists are interesting. I have suffered from that sleeping disorder for many, many years but I don’t want a cure. 🙂
