Walt Disney Pictures this year are releasing a reasonably confident set of movies with such films as 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' and 'The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe' leading the pack for 2005.
Also keep an eye out for the smaller films such as Japanese remake of 'Dark Water', and the latest movie addition to the 'Herbie' franchise titled 'Herbie: Fully Loaded'.
Here is the full list of the movies Disney has in store for 2005.
Aliens of the Deep"Aliens of the Deep" is the result of several dramatic and visually stunning deep-sea expeditions to hydrothermal vent sites in the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans. These vent sites are violent volcanic regions where the interaction between ocean and molten rock create plumes of super-heated, chemically-charged water that serve as unimaginable oases for animals unlike anything ever discovered. Six-foot tall stomach-less worms with blood-red plumes, blind white crabs, and an inconceivable biomass of shrimp capable of "seeing" heat all compete to find just the right location in the flow of the super-heated, life-giving water that surrounds these vents. Unlike all other life on Earth, these creatures are not dependent on sunlight and their ecosystems are as close to alien as anything ever imagined. They provide one possible blueprint for the life that might exist beyond our world. Cameron is joined on his search for the strange and alien creatures that live in the hydrothermal vent sites by a team of young NASA scientists and marine biologists. They share his interests as they consider how these life forms represent life we may one day find in outer space, not only on faraway planets orbiting distant stars, but also within our own solar system. Stretching imagination from the depths of the sea into the far reaches of our universe, "Aliens of the Deep" takes audiences on a journey to encounter alien life, face to face, and to inspire a new generation of exploration.

The PacifierVin Diesel redefines what it means to be an action hero in the heartwarming family action-comedy THE PACIFIER. Diesel stars as Navy SEAL Shane Wolfe who, as an elite member of the world’s fiercest and most highly trained force thought he was prepared to take on any duty no matter how perilous or impossible . . . until he tried baby-sitting.
Assigned to protect the five out-of-control children of an assassinated scientist working on vital government secrets, Shane is suddenly faced with juggling two outrageously incompatible jobs: fighting the bad guys while keeping house.
Replacing his usual arsenal of wetsuits and weapons with diapers and juice boxes, Shane not only must battle a deceptive enemy but wrangle teen rebel Zoe (BRITTANY SNOW), sullen 14 year-old Seth (MAX THERIOT), 8 year-old Ninja-wanna-be Lulu (MORGAN YORK), as well as 3 year-old Peter and baby Tyler – not to mention their off-beat Romanian Nanny (CAROL KANE). But while drop zones, demolitions and destroying enemy targets come naturally to Shane, he has no idea what tough really is until he pits his courage against diapering, den-mothering and driver’s education.
He’s truly a SEAL out of water, and now it’s up to this one-time lone warrior to take on the most important mission of his life: keeping a family together.
The Pacifier is set for release on March 4th. For further details and media visit our database.
