OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL Opening Title Sequence

Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great wizard but into a better man as well.

STAR TREK The Video Game Reinvents a Classic Star Trek Villain

In the nearly five decades since the U.S.S. Enterprise first ventured into space, her crew has encountered untold foes, but few enemies have been quite as memorable as the Gorn.

The savage, lizard-like race has been seen only fleetingly on screen, most memorably in the TV series’ first-season episode “Arena” – but STAR TREK® The Video Game is about to change that.

“When we started development on the game more than three years ago, one of the first decisions we had to make was: Who was the enemy?” says the game’s executive producer, Brian Miller. “The Gorn immediately jumped to the top of the list. And now, as gamers and fans ourselves, we couldn’t be more excited to bring one of the most popular and iconic science fiction villains of all time to the video-game space.”

STAR TREK The Video Game is now available for pre-ordering. Pre-orders include a special “Elite Officer Pack” with exclusive weapons and uniforms. In addition, GameStop PowerupRewards members who pre-order STAR TREK The Video Game for Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 will also receive an exclusive KRE-O mini-build of the U.S.S. Enterprise and a collectible poster. Pre-order details are available at www.startrekgame.com.

Movie Review: "Oz the Great and Powerful"

The year was 1900 and a young man with whom many adventures and ideas had failed, hit with such success that his work’s would be fought over for years. L. Frank Baum is considered by many to be the creator of the fantasy genre with his widely triumphant series of books of the Land of Oz. Now, some 113 years later, Disney is adding to that legacy by relighting the torch Baum started but never touched upon, the Wizard.
