Review: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Quest for the Crystal Mickey on DVD

20 June 2013 by Suzannah Otis Leave a Comment

Around my house, the promotion for the Quest for the Crystal Mickey on Disney Junior was quite a build up. My four-year old was SO excited, we had to show him on a calendar just how many days until it premiered and of course set up to record it as well. So when I saw it was coming to DVD, of course, I knew he had to have it. He was not disappointed and it is still one of his favorite shows to watch. I think anything with “quest” in it instantly makes things more exciting, don’t you? The best part is the DVD comes not only with that episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, but also 3 others so it really is a DVD you can pop-in and ensure your little ones have quality family entertainment for a good while. The episodes included are: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Quest for the Crystal Mickey, Donald of the Desert, Donald the Genie, Goofy’s Coconutty Monkey, and Goofy’s Giant Adventure.

Here are more details, if you happened to miss the show when it came out:

Join Mickey, Minnie, Pluto and all their pals in the newest Clubhouse crusade. When the legendary Crystal Mickey

goes missing, Mickey and friends go on an adventure to save the Clubhouse from losing its magic. Grab your hat,

buckle your seatbelt, and get ready to embark on a thrilling adventure in “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: The Quest for

the Crystal Mickey!”

There’s no time to lose after greedy Plunderin’ Pete snatches the legendary Crystal Mickey statue from the Clubhouse. Without this sparkly statue’s magic, the Clubhouse will

disappear forever!

Can the world’s most extraordinary hero “Kansas City Mickey,” get the magical statue back in time? Only with help from young viewers at home…and the right Mouseketools can Mickey journey across the Sandy Desert, brave the Rushing River and make his way through the Hidden Jungle. But watch out for Pete’s trickiest traps!

You can bring the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Quest for the Crystal Mickey into your home today, as it is currently out on DVD. You’ll be singing along in no time! You can also check out Mickey Mouse Club House daily on Disney Junior.

It’s Actually Pretty Easy Being Green. Muppets DVD Review + Soundtrack Giveaway!

19 March 2012 by Suzannah Otis 26 Comments

I feel as though of all the DVD/Blu-ray reviews I do here on Zannaland, this one – The Muppets, is probably the most unnecessary of all. (I know, I’m a great promoter 😉 ) Everyone I’ve talked to or shown a photo of the dvd to, has said “Oh, we can’t wait to pick that up!” It’s not so hard being green, but it may be hard finding someone that didn’t love The Muppets in theatres and doesn’t plan on purchasing the dvd!

If you need to remember why you loved the movie so much, The Muppets have come up with another of their great spoof videos, this time taking on the epic Hunger Games film. Another masterpiece!

Still not convinced? I’ll go over some of the fun bonus features, if you still need any convincing. In fact, the Muppets themselves have commented on some of contents of the releases!

One of my favorites includes “The Longest Blooper Reel Ever Made (In Muppet History––We Think).” The release also includes the hilarious featurette “A Little Screen Test on the Way to the Read Through,” which follows Jason Segel, Kermit, The Great Gonzo, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy and others as they get ready for the first day of production, and much more fun.

“Blu-ray is a great way to bring the Muppets into your home without having to worry about cleaning up after us,” said Kermit the Frog, commenting on the announcement. “And the behind-the-scenes extras are a revealing tell-all look at what it took to bring our movie to the big screen. It’s a must-see for fans of bloopers, flubs and slip-ups – which pretty much describes our act.”

Miss Piggy is equally thrilled at the movie’s Blu-ray release, “Now you can watch moi whenever you want! Ooh! Lucky vous!”

Additional fun-filled features on Disney’s “The Muppets” Blu-ray include a groundbreaking industry first — ‘Disney Intermission,’ a hilarious all-new feature that allows viewers to press Pause on their remote control and watch as the Muppets take over the screen and entertain until the movie resumes playing. We actually found that by accident and thought it was priceless. The release also includes “Explaining Evil: The Full Tex Richman Song,” an extended version of the rollicking rap song by villain Tex Richman (Academy Award winner Chris Cooper) who provides the hilarious backstory of why he hates the Muppets. Audio commentaries with screenwriter and star Jason Segel, director James Bobin and screenwriter Nicholas Stoller are also included.

So in short, what are you waiting for? Order now, go pick it up tomorrow, run, don’t walk to get your DVD or Blu-ray or Digital Download! We were sent a free copy of the Wocka Wocka Value Pack, which is what I recommend. It comes with the traditional DVD, the Blu-ray, Digital Download to upload it to your computer or iPad, and a code to download The Muppets soundtrack.

Since I already purchased the soundtrack when it came out, I’d love to pass this code on to a lucky reader here.
