Care Bears Show On The Way

The Care Bears are getting the CGI-animated treatment in a new TV show aiming to launch next year, which has been designated the 30th anniversary of the launch of the children’s franchise. The Care Bears were created in 1981 by American Greetings for use in greeting cards and plush toys were released in 1983 when the creatures first appeared on TV. They were a successful toy, TV and pop-culture franchise throughout the decade. The Care Bears are a community of colorful bears each with a unique “belly badge” to stress its personality -- a four leaf clover for Good Luck Bear, a storm cloud for Grumpy Bear, a shooting star for Wish Bear, etc. The Care Bears live in Care-a-lot, adjacent to the Forest of Feelings, and are looked after by their Star and Heart Buddies who act as guardian angels. The franchise is managed by American Greetings Properties, which also handles such characters as Strawberry Shortcake, Holly Hobbie and Twisted Whiskers. American Greetings didn’t say Wednesda

Watch the featurettes After the Jump... Born during the Great Depression, Steve Rogers grew up a frail youth in a poor family. Horrified by the newsreel footage of the Nazis in Europe, Rogers was inspired to enlist in the army. However, because of his frailty and sickness, he was rejected. Overhearing the boy’s earnest plea, General Chester Phillips offered Rogers the opportunity to take part in a special experiment… Operation: Rebirth.

Clifton Collins Jr Joins Jason Statham In "Parker"

With the main names for crime thriller Parker either in place ( Jason Statham ) or in final talks ( Jennifer Lopez) , director Taylor Hackford is now scouting around to fill out the rest of the cast. And he’s just convinced Clifton Collins Jr and Wire veteran Wendell Pierce to sign on. Parker is based on Donald Westlake’s long-running novel series, one that focus on the titular thief ( Statham ). While he’s occasionally required to kill, he lives by a strict code of honour that includes never stealing from those who need the money. He’s not a man to be trifled with, and will strike back mercilessly if crossed. So you can probably guess what happens in the film… Lopez is locking in the role of Leslie, a woman who crosses paths with Parker during a heist. There’s no word on who Collins or Pierce will be playing. Collins, last seen in the likes of Star Trek, Crank: High Voltage and a hilarious, tiny cameo as one of the Vegan Police in Scott Pilgrim, has comedy pic Freeloaders a
