finding dory

Like every other Pixar release, Finding Dory opens with a short film. This one is called “Piper”; it’s about a little bird learning to hunt for food among the scary ocean waves. It’s a terrific showcase for Pixar’s latest advancements in computer animation, which in recent years has taken on the qualities of great nature photography. The sunlight sparkles against the water, which ripples and flows with uncanny accuracy, and when the little bird kicks a pile of sand in a crab’s face you can practically count the individual grains.

It’s officially 2016. Our Best of 2015 lists have all been published and the new year is upon us, which means it’s time to start looking to the future. Yes, 2015 was a particularly good year for movie fans, but 2016 looks pretty impressive too. You like Coen Bros. movies? We got one of those. You like Star Wars? Yup, one of those too. Critically acclaimed horror movies? Sure. Pixar? Of course. Movies where your favorite superheroes beat the crap out of each other? WE GOT TWO OF THOSE. We put together a quick list of the 25 movies — a mix of both blockbusters and indies — that we can’t wait to see next year. This will probably change as the year goes on (our 2015 list included Jupiter Ascending, Aloha and Tomorrowland so we’re not perfect), but based on what we know right now, this is it. Here are the movies we’re looking forward to the most in 2016, in the order of release date (those with no release date are listed in alphabetical order).

As it turns out, Ellen DeGeneres’ Dory isn’t the only sea creature having a bit of trouble in the world of ‘Finding Dory.’ Pixar’s forgetful blue tang may suffer from short-term memory loss, but in the upcoming ‘Finding Nemo’ sequel we’ll meet a couple new characters also struggling to get by in the deep blue sea. Enter: The rehabilitation center in ‘Finding Dory’s marine life facility.

I don't know about you , but I am very excited to learn that they will finally make a sequel to ""Finding Nemo". I never could understand why they haven't already, I mean , doesn't Hollywood "franchise" anything that is remotely successful?
