It’s no secret, Walt Disney Pictures and Marvel Studios had a pretty stellar year with Captain America, the Winter Soldier, Maleficent, Guardians of the Galaxy, Big Hero 6, and the just-released Into the Woods. My head was on a swivel between my computer screen and the big screen. These movies were more than good flicks, they were top-notch, record-breaking, go back and watch again, awesome.

 

Now that the blood is slowly returning to my head, it’s time to have a look at the upcoming Disney movies for 2015. Before we do that though, let’s recap shall we, all the goodies from 2014.

Captain America, the Winter Soldier starring the hunktastic Chris Evans (wait, I’m fanning my face…God he’s cray hot), made a giant $713,846,958 in world-wide box office cheddar and an additional $47,712,536 in domestic DVD / Blu-Ray sales.

The Guardians of the Galaxy killed it in the box office with a fat $770,862,030 in worldwide sales, making it the number two movie of 2014.

 

If you think those numbers are huge you’re going to faint when you read this. Guardians of the Galaxy starring Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel and Bradley Cooper (with co-stars John C. Reilly and
Glenn Close), killed it in the box office with a fat $770,862,030 in worldwide sales, making it the number two movie of 2014 (just behind Paramount’s Transformers, Age of Extinction which sucked mega ass).

 

If you didn’t see Guardians of the Galaxy, you messed up. Grab your keys and buy it (or look for it in the Disney Movie Club), it’s that awesome. I saw it three times in the theater. No lie. (Domestic DVD and Blu-ray sales not yet published).
