Disney fans say same thing as they discover age of iconic Pixar film
The hit Pixar movie is celebrating a major anniversary today Fans of Finding Nemo might be gobsmacked to realise just how old Oscar-winning flick is turning today. First hitting American cinemas on May 30, 2003, the Pixar masterpiece is now marking its 22nd anniversary, leaving its fans in shock. Helmed by the acclaimed director and voice artist Andrew Stanton, the tale charts the journey of clownfish Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) as he searches the ocean for his kidnapped son Nemo (Alexander Gould). Joined by the forgetful blue tang Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), the duo embarks on an epic underwater odyssey. At its heart, this touching story explores themes of kinship and camaraderie, alongside the trials and tribulations of parenting, reports the Mirror US. The film boasts a glittering ensemble including Willem Dafoe, Brad Garrett, and Oscar laureate Allison Janney. Upon hitting cinemas, the animated gem received a rapturous reception, securing four nods at the 76th Academy Awards. Nominated for Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score, Best Sound Editing, and Best Animated Feature, it was Stanton who snagged the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, earning his first Oscar win. The accolades for Finding Nemo didn't end with the Oscars; the family comedy also clinched an exceptional 99 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, hailed by reviewers as "breathtakingly lovely and grounded by the stellar efforts of a well-chosen cast." Viewers have been celebrating the major milestone, with many expressing their disbelief at how many years have passed since the film landed in cinemas. In a thread celebrating the occasion by @FilmUpdates, fans are sharing their shock, some noting that they are even younger than the beloved movie. "The film that defined my whole childhood. ALSO JESUS F*** THIS MOVIE'S TWO YEARS OLDER THAN ME," one fan exclaimed. Echoing the disbelief, another one shared: "HOW LONG AGO?!" A third simply expressed their shock with: "Twenty Two?!?" "Oh god I remember watching this in theatres," confessed another. A different fan questioned: "Wdym [what do you mean] 22 years?" As well as their surprise, enthusiasts are heaping praise on the enduring comedy hit. "One of the best Pixar movies," declared a cinema buff. Another admirer added their voice, saying: "Kinda the greatest film ever."

Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do" premieres in The Handmaid's Tale, fans smell Reputation coming
Taylor Swift has just left her stamp on dystopia - literally. Her re-recorded single "Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor's Version)" was on May 19 used in the latest episode of The Handmaid's Tale, and it could not have been more apt, or more melodramatic. The dark, rebellious tune is played during an intense scene where June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss) organizes a high-stakes revolt against Gilead, the totalitarian regime that is the show's focus. This is not a typical cameo. The placement was an all-out musical moment with Swift's cold vocals and thudding beat giving even more fierceness to a scene already brimming with peril and feeling. If "revenge dress" were a song, this is it. — FilmUpdates (@FilmUpdates) The updated version of the song includes crisper production, newer synths, and Swift's older vocals. Although the essence of the song is the same as the original of her 2017 Reputation album, fans could see that this version goes towards a darker, more sleek sound ideal for a show that lives on high-stakes drama and defiance. Elisabeth Moss, an actor and executive producer of the show, explained that the cast and crew of The Handmaid's Tale are huge Swifties. She said it was a natural fit to use "Look What You Made Me Do," and one that also aligned perfectly with the episode's themes: revenge, freedom, and taking back course, Swifties are now believing this to be more than just a soundtrack selection. Swift has been gradually re-recording her initial six albums to take complete control of her music. Since Reputation (Taylor's Version) is among the last few left, this TV premiere has kindled massive speculation that the official release of the album is imminent, even potentially coordinated with the American Music Awards on May was this just a revolting sync for a TV show? Maybe. But knowing Taylor, it was also a clue and the snakes, secrets, and Swiftian strategy of the Reputation era may be slithering back very soon.
