Now that I’ve added a proper “Film and Television” area to The Chronicles, its time to start using it when items that reach our wide ranging age audience come to light. This trailer actually was released a few months ago but since the full trailer has yet to be released, I felt that sharing the teaser one was a good idea. Check out the upcoming fantasy film from Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures “The Nutcracker and The Four Realms”.

The Storyline:
All Clara wants is a key – a one-of-a-kind key that will unlock a box that holds a priceless gift from her late mother. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyer’s annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key-which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. It’s there that Clara encounters a soldier named Phillip, a gang of mice and the regents who preside over three Realms: Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers, and Land of Sweets. Clara and Phillip must brave the ominous Fourth Realm, home to the tyrant Mother Ginger, to retrieve Clara’s key and hopefully return harmony to the unstable world. (thanks IMDB).

Piercing Ken Thoughts: I’ll keep the thoughts to myself since this is a teaser and I generally wait until a longer clip is unveiled. See you next time. Of course if you feel like chiming in about it don’t let me stop you.
