This fun series titled “Gotham City” comes from Brazil-based artist Rick Celis. In some bizarre alternate universe, Batman: The Animated Series has an all Disney cast. My favorite is Geppetto and Pinocchio. I don’t think I have ever seen them look scary before. Gotham City just got stranger. Who knew that was possible?
We are loving this colorful series of illustrations by Deviantart user DjeDjehuti which depicts our favorite Disney princesses as Game Of Thrones characters. It’s an interesting idea, taking the wholesome world of Disney and mixing it with the violent world of GOT. I think they turned out pretty wonderful though and it makes us see these characters in a whole new way. The artist says:
This was a silly idea I had a little while back and so became a little pet project of mine – both the world of Disney Princesses and Game of Thrones have become so culturally pervasive, and feature such a diverse cast of ladies, it seemed crazy to me that this hadn’t yet been done!
I’m pretty surprised that this hasn’t been done myself. And if it was, I doubt it was this cool. A few of our favorites are below, but you can check the artists site for more.

When you look at this concept art from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, one thing becomes clear: This could have been a much darker movie. That probably would have been a good thing. Too bad Disney always likes to play it safe. The concept art below comes from the book, The Art of The Force Awakens, released by LucasFilm. mIt offers an interesting look at what they had originally planned.
To me Rey and Finn look much more a part of the Star Wars universe in their outfits here. BB-8 also went through several changes. I kind of like that bulky look. It’s less cutesy and more utilitarian. Kylo Ren? He could have looked far more menacing. There are so many interesting things to see here and you know what that means. I have to get this book and drool over these images.
We got our first glimpse of the new Star Wars Land during The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60 on ABC. That’s where a bunch of new concept art was revealed for the theme park. I really like what I’m seeing here. These pieces of concept art all look like locales I would love to visit in the park. These all look so good. Fans are going to love the Millennium Falcon, not to mention the rest of it. There’s also an experience with various droids and aliens, and if that isn’t enough, how about extraterrestrial markets where you can challenge your taste buds with exotic food? Sounds like there will be all kinds of exciting things going on.

Artist Phill Berry is responsible for this series of Disney Princesses as Jedi from the Star Wars universe. All of these women look so badass and I love the style. Phill has a very unique take on this mashup theme which you have probably seen done before. When Phill does it, he injects a unique style and level of detail into his work that makes each of these pieces come alive. It would be awesome if Disney merged there two franchises into something like this.

If you love the X-Men and also love Disney Princesses, but can’t decide which you love more, this is for you. Both have been lovingly mashed up by San Francisco-based artist Diego Gómez. These are just awesome. I can see the potential for an X-Men/Disney crossover. Nah. But this series is fun and beautiful. They make you look at these Princesses in a whole new way.
Artist Tom Hodges created this awesome set of Jedi Disney Princesses. This is absolutely the best Star Wars/Disney mashup ever. They are awesome all by themselves, but check this out. You can actually get many of these designs on t-shirts and hoodies and prints. How cool is that? It is perfect for fans of both Disney Princesses and Star Wars. I really love the style and the colors.

Here is a fun video of Wired taking a look at the Visual Effects used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It is a fascinating look at how Industrial Light & Magic created those complex action sequences, breathtaking environments, and characters. It packs a lot of info into it’s three minute run time. It’s always fun to see how the magic is done. It doesn’t ruin the magician’s trick, it makes us even more in awe.
I don’t know about you, but I never expected to see Boba Fett and Pocahontas mashed up together in an amazing cosplay. This fun idea was created by Hendoart, and it certainly has a unique look. I love all of the unique details that she worked into this from both characters.
This particular combination would have never occurred to me, but it is pretty awesome. Hendoart pulls it off beautifully. Why not? Disney owns both of these properties now. The photos were taken by York In A Box. This is a truly creative bit of cosplay that is just plain fun.

You really can’t go wrong with a 3 foot tall AT-AT bookshelf. It’s the perfect place for your Star Wars books, DVDs and action figures. I would love to have this displayed in my house. Even if you don’t use it for storage, it is just awesome to have an AT-AT bookshelf.
Do you think this was the Empire’s attempt at a bookmobile? I mean this thing would hold, what, about a trillion books? Probably not. But that would be soooo cool.
