This week on episode 22 of The Disney Movie Review, we talk about Inside Out. This weekend it was slated to bring in $50 million, but is it really the best Pixar film? We take it to the record boks to find out. Universal Studios has had a lot of movies that have over performed, propelling Universal past Disney at the box-office to control market share. Here's how Jurassic World could affect Disney World. Ant-Man opened up its set to reporters. SlashFilm.com provided a list of things for fans to know. We provide the top 7. That and much much more.
