Disney toon schedule

There are only a few years left before The Rapture, the Mayan calendar countdown or the Singularity occurs, and the Mouse House is determined to fill that time with as many animated features as possible.

Disney (including Pixar) has announced their animation schedule through the year 2012, and while there aren’t many real surprises outside of official CARS 2 confirmation, at least you’ll know what you’ll get to see before Quetzalcoatl’s return. Any extra new details (and tons of great news for Tinkerbell’s fanbase) are listed with the movies below:

-WALL•E (Release Date: June 27th, 2008)

-BOLT (Release Date: November 26th, 2008, Disney Digital 3-D™)

For super-dog Bolt (voiced by John Travolta), every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue – at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the canine star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest adventure yet – a cross-country journey through the real world. Armed only with the delusions that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and with the help of two unlikely traveling companions – a jaded, abandoned housecat named Mittens (voiced by Susie Essman), and TV-obsessed hamster in a plastic ball named Rhino – Bolt discovers he doesn’t need superpowers to be a hero. Miley Cyrus (“Hannah Montana”) brings her vocal talents to the role of Penny, Bolt’s human co-star on the television series.

-TINKER BELL (Disney DVD and Blu-ray Release Date: October 28th, 2008)

-UP (Release Date: May 29th, 2009, Disney Digital 3-D™)

From the Academy Award®-nominated team of director Pete Docter (“Monsters, Inc.”) and co-director Bob Peterson comes “Up,” a comedic adventure taking off (and lifting spirits) in summer 2009. Carl Fredricksen spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But at age 78, life seems to have passed him by, until a twist of fate (and a persistent 8-year old Wilderness Explorer named Russell) gives him a new lease on life. “Up” takes audiences on a thrilling journey where the unlikely pair encounter wild terrain, unexpected villains and jungle creatures. When seeking adventure next summer – look “Up.”

A rugged and mythic Scotland is the setting for Pixar’s action-adventure “The Bear and the Bow.” The impetuous, tangle-haired Merida, though a daughter of royalty, would prefer to make her mark as a great archer.
