Leaving On A Jet Plane…to the #InsideOutEvent

Inside Out Trip

I may be leaving on a jet plane…but I do know when I am coming back home. I will be in LA from June 7th to June 9th attending some incredible Disney events – the Inside Out movie premiere, hanging with the stars of Teen Beach 2, and talking with the creators of Phineas and Ferb. Twenty-four other awesome bloggers will be joining me on this trip and I cannot wait to share the experience with them! We will be staying at the beautiful Universal Sheraton Hotel. Doesn’t this hotel look amazing? I know it will be a once-in-a-lifetime unbelievable experience – and I cannot wait to share exclusive photos and information with you so be sure to follow me on Instagram and Twitter!

Inside Out

Inside Out

When I first heard about Inside Out, I was super excited. Not only are some of my favorite Actors/Comedians voicing some of the characters (Bill Hadar, Amy Poehler, Lewis Black, Phyllis Smith, etc…), it looks hilarious! I have always loved cartoons and if it is from Disney/Pixar then even better. They have the best movies. I am such a little kid at heart so I know how much I will love watching this movie. Although, I will not just be watching it – I will be walking the red carpet at the premiere and then writing up a review on the movie for your guys – and of course letting you know all about my red carpet experience! I cannot wait to see this movie on the big screen – and I already know I will be taking my girls to see it when it comes out in theaters June 19th. They have been begging to go and I know they will enjoy it.

Before I walk the red carpet and watch the premiere of Inside Out, I will be attending a “pre-party” and mingling with a long list of incredible celebrities. I admit, I had to take a few deep breaths after seeing the initial list. I am pretty excited about everyone, but the few that stand out to me (besides the stars of Inside Out) are Breckin Meyer (Clueless, Franklin and Bash), Mark Duplass (The League, Togetherness), and Joel McHale (The Soup, Community). You can check out the full list of confirmed celebrities on my Facebook page here.

As if that wasn’t amazing enough, I will be part of an interview with Kyle MacLachlan who voices Riley’s dad in the film! He is a brilliant actor and I loved him as The Captain in How I Met Your Mother. He has also starred in Sex and the City, The Good Wife, and most recently, Agents of Shield. What a great opportunity! If you have any questions for him, please let me know and I will try my best to get answers for you.

Synopsis:

Do you ever look at someone and wonder what is going on inside their head? Disney-Pixar’s original new film “Inside Out” ventures inside the mind to find out.

Based in Headquarters, the control center inside 11-year-old Riley’s mind, five Emotions are hard at work, led by lighthearted optimist Joy (voice of Amy Poehler), whose mission is to make sure Riley stays happy. Fear (voice of Bill Hader) heads up safety, Anger (voice of Lewis Black) ensures all is fair and Disgust (voice of Mindy Kaling) prevents Riley from getting poisoned—both physically and socially. Sadness (voice of Phyllis Smith) isn’t exactly sure what her role is, and frankly, neither is anyone else.

When Riley’s family relocates to a scary new city, the Emotions are on the job, eager to help guide her through the difficult transition. But when Joy and Sadness are inadvertently swept into the far reaches of Riley’s mind—taking some of her core memories with them—Fear, Anger and Disgust are left reluctantly in charge. Joy and Sadness must venture through unfamiliar places—Long Term Memory, Imagination Land, Abstract Thought and Dream Productions—in a desperate effort to get back to Headquarters, and Riley.

Inside Out will be in theaters everywhere on June 19th, 2015.

Teen Beach 2

Teen Beach 2

If you have not seen the original Teen Beach Movie, I highly recommend it. It has been on Disney a ton and I have watched it several times with my young girls. They love the singing and dancing – and I am not ashamed to admit that my husband and I actually really got into the story line. I was excited to hear that Teen Beach 2 will be premiering Friday, June 26th at 8:00 p.m., EST on Disney Channel (and available on DVD with never-before-seen dance rehearsal bonus feature). This movie flip flops the story line of the original Teen Beach: when characters from the movie musical “Wet Side Story” get stuck in the real world, teens Brady (Ross Lynch) and Mack (Maia Mitchell) must find a way to return them home. I am going to attend a special screening of Teen Beach 2 and after that – Chrissie Fit (“Pitch Perfect 2”) aka CheeChee and Jordan Fisher (Hollywood Records recording artist) aka Seacat are confirmed to participate in a Q&A and dance lesson. I am not the best dancer so this should be interesting…but I know it will be a blast!

Phineas & Ferb

Phineas and Ferb

Let me start off by saying how sad I am that Phineas and Ferb is coming to an end. It has been one of my favorite shows for a long time. I started watching it right when it came out – and not just for my daughters. This show is funny, cute, and interesting. I enjoy seeing what crazy inventions Phineas and Ferb will come up with next and I love Agent P and his “battles” with Doofenshmirtz. They always have me laughing. One of my favorite bands growing up was Bowling for Soup so the fact that they sing the intro (which I have memorized) is pretty awesome too. Starting on Tuesday, June 9th at 8:00pm EST there will be a marathon of Phineas and Ferb on Disney XD for 73 hours leading up to “Last Day of Summer” that will air on June 12th at 9:00pm EST. I am really excited to tell you guys that while I am in LA I will have the chance to sit down with the creators of Phineas and Ferb and talk about this great show with them.

Synopsis:

In the one-hour “Phineas and Ferb” episode titled “Last Day of Summer,” the summer season is coming to a close and it’s Candace’s last chance to bust her brothers. She is quickly foiled, but is presented with an opportunity to redo the day when she sets off Dr. Doofenshmirtz’s Do-Over-Inator, which results in other consequences like rips in the space-time continuum, the shortening of days and the disappearance of her brothers.

“Phineas and Ferb” won three Emmy Awards – one for Outstanding Writing in Animation (2010) and two for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation (both in 2011) – and nine Emmy nominations. Additionally, the series received multiple nominations for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards (BAFTA) and Annie Awards. The “Phineas and Ferb” voice cast includes: Vincent Martella as Phineas Flynn, Thomas Sangster as Ferb Fletcher, Ashley Tisdale as Candace Flynn, Mitchel Musso as Jeremy, Caroline Rhea as mom Linda Flynn-Fletcher, Richard O’Brien as dad Lawrence Fletcher, Dee Bradley Baker as Perry the Platypus, Alyson Stoner as Isabella, Jeff “Swampy” Marsh as Major Monogram and Dan Povenmire as the nefarious Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Among its over 150 guest stars are: Michael Douglas, Michael J. Fox, Jon Stewart, Patrick Dempsey, Ben Stiller, Tina Fey, JK Simmons, Seth MacFarlane, Jay Leno, Kelly Clarkson, George Takei, Simon Pegg, Anna Paquin, Josh Gad and Stan Lee.

Don’t forget to watch Phineas and Ferb “Last Day of Summer” on June 12th at 9:00pm EST on Disney XD.

Celebrity Family Fued

Celebrity Family Feud

While I am in LA, I will also be attending a live taping of ABC’s new primetime celebrity version of “Family Feud,” based on one of television’s most popular and enduring game show formats and premiering on Sunday, June 21st at 8 EST on ABC: “Celebrity Family Feud.” The six-episode special series will feature fan-favorite celebrities competing with their families for charity on the famous stage of “Family Feud.” Hosted by the highly popular multi-hyphenate standup comedian, actor, author, deejay and Emmy Award-winning talk show host Steve Harvey, “Celebrity Family Feud” will pit celebrities against each other in a contest to name the most popular responses to a survey-type question posed to 100 people. I cannot wait to see what celebrities will be featured in the episode that I get to see! I loved this show growing up (and still do) so I know this will be a blast!
