The Good Dinosaur is coming to the big screen
PIXAR is coming up with a dinosaur movie, and this time they are putting forth a question — what would have happened if the giant asteroid that theoretically killed the dinosaurs had missed?
And The Good Dinosaur answers that question in this classic boy-and-his-dog tale with a twist: the boy is an apatosaurus named Arlo (Raymond Ochoa), and his dog is a feral human kid named Spot (Jack Bright).
Arlo gets caught in a current and carried down a long river away from his family and is trying to get home. He realises he has to follow the river to walk back home and along the way befriends Spot, who is something of an orphan and looking for a companion. Oh, and before he was taken so far away from his home, Arlo’s father dies.
The film promises an epic journey, an unlikely friendship, and an emotional crescendo meant to put you in touch with deep-rooted feelings you didn’t even know you had.
The Good Dinosaur stomps into theatres on November 25, 2015.
PINK Floyd’s singer/guitarist Dave Gilmour says that the band have run their course and that it would be wrong to make more music without Richard Wright.
The singer and guitarist admits that after almost half a century together, there are no plans for the band to reunite and said, “Obviously I accept there are people who want to go and see and hear this legend that was Pink Floyd, but I’m afraid that’s not my responsibility. To me, it’s just two words that tie together the work that four people did together. It’s just a pop group. I don’t need it. I don’t need to go there.”
Gilmour also added that it would be inappropriate to reform the band without keyboardist Richard Wright, who died in 2008: “To do it without Rick would just be wrong,” he said.
