The Oscars Should Prioritize Stunt Awards, Not Popular Film, Christopher McQuarrie Says When the Academy made a misguided attempt to appeal to the masses with a “Best Achievement in Popular Film” category, it sent film fans into an uproar.

If you haven’t watched it yet,watch it now here!As you probably know, I’m an obsessive Pixar fanatic and love finding all of the little easter eggs that the animators/designers hide in the films. In the past we’ve taken a look at theeaster eggs inPete Docter’sUp,Andrew Stanton’sWALL-EandBrad Bird’sRatatouille. So I thought we’d take a look at the new trailer and see what easter eggs we could find (with the help of directorLee Unkrich’s tweets)....

VOTD: Did You Spot These ‘Zootopia’ Easter Eggs And Hidden Mickeys? We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Any Disney fan can tell you that the animators at the House of Mouse love sneaking “hidden Mickeys” into each and every movies they produced. In fact, this practice is also something that is done all over their theme parks, where you can find endless recreations of three circles that come together to form a silhouette of Mickey Mouse....

Why Emilio Estevez Thinks The Breakfast Club Turned Out Better Than St. Elmo’s Fire The Brat Pack are a fascinating cultural object. Sure, the idea of having young, hot movie stars is nothing new, but the idea that they all operated basically within the same circle, constantly working with each other over and over again, is rather unusual.
