Jonas Bros in Theaters Friday

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Disney, Musicals, Upcoming Releases

Disney’s Jonas Brothers held a press conference recently to drum up publicity before the release of their new concert film, Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience, scheduled to hit theaters this Friday.

“We can’t give too many details as to what cities or how many cities we’ll be going to,” Nick Jonas stated. “This is a concert experience not only because you’re watching a show, but because you’re a part of it. You’re a part of our family in the movie and we want to be there with them when they see it.”

Isn’t that sweet? But will even this clever bit of promotion help the Jonas Brothers movie beat the Miley Cyrus flick at the box office? Not bloody likely.

Details on the Jonas Brothers Movie

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Documentary, Music, Upcoming Releases

If you got caught in the mania behind February’s Hannah Montana movie, consider this your warning. You now have just over six months to go until the Jonas Brothers have their turn.

Early next year, fans of Nick, Joe and Kevin will get their chance to see the hot boy band in glorious 3-D. The Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Movie will be comprised of footage from their current Burning Up tour combined with behind-the-scenes stuff on the musicians’ lives. Based on the interest of Miley Cyrus’ outing, Disney could expect to see ticket sales in the neighborhood of $30 million on opening weekend alone.

The Jonas Brothers will rock the theaters on February 27, 2009.

More Ticket Troubles with Hannah Montana

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Disney, Music, Celeb News, Upcoming Releases

The concert everyone wanted to see will soon become the movie fans will be forced to miss. Miley Cyrus, star of Hannah Montana and big-selling concert songstress, will soon be on the big screen. The Montana movie comes out February 1, but it’s only scheduled to run for a single week. Tickets have been on sale since December 1, and already fans are treating them like pieces of the true cross. Tickets are selling (and selling out) online and at box offices.

The movie, Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour, will feature clips of Miley’s nationwide tour that caused a summer sensation. Meanwhile, Disney has offered no information as to whether the movie will also be released on DVD.

Independent films and other genre films are often released for only one week, and some say such a short release time helps the market from becoming oversaturated. Hannah Montana? Oversaturated? That ship has sailed.
