About Cinderella:
Everyone orders Cinderella around: her cruel stepmother, her
awful stepsisters -- even the big clock in the church tower
tells her when to start another day of drudgery. But they can't
stop her from dreaming, and Cinderella has faith that someday
her wishes will come true. When an invitation to the royal ball
arrives, Cinderella is sure her time has come -- until her
stepsisters, with the encouragement of Lady Tremaine, tear her
gown to shreds. Just when Cinderella believes all is lost, her
Fairy Godmother appears, and with a wave of her wand and
“Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo,” transforms an ordinary pumpkin into a
magnificent coach and Cinderella’s rags into a gorgeous gown,
then sends her off to the Royal Ball. But Cinderella’s enchanted
evening must end when the spell is broken at midnight. It will
take the help of her daring animal mice friends and a perfect
fit into a glass slipper to create the ultimate fairy tale
ending.

visually stunning new world with heart-pounding action. The
heroic epic adventure “John Carter” arrives on Disney Blu-ray
Combo Pack, Blu-ray 3D™, HD Digital, DVD and On-Demand June 5,
2012, just in time for Father’s Day!
As a warrior lost on Earth, John Carter is magically transported
to Mars, where the fate of the planet and its people ultimately
rest in his hands. With surprising new powers, and epic battles,

From Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton (Best

becomes embroiled in an epic conflict. It’s a world on the brink
of collapse, and Carter rediscovers his humanity when he
realizes the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his
hands. Stunning special effects, great characters and villains —
and complete with extraordinary bonus features — “John Carter”
is a heroic and inspirational adventure that will thrill
audiences beyond imagination.
This ambitious and unforgettable screen adaptation of the
classic novel “A Princess of Mars” by Edgar Rice Burroughs,
stars heartthrob Taylor Kitsch in the title role, Lynn Collins
as Dejah Thoris, Willem Dafoe as Tars Tarkas, and Dominic West
as Sab Than. The screenplay is written by Stanton, Mark Andrews
