DisneyNature’s Earth

DisneyNature will release Earth on April 22nd, Earth Day, and if it makes a boatload of cash it could be a contender for the doc race, even if it isn’t particularly hard-hitting. Earth was made by the same filmmakers who did the dazzling Planet Earth, Alastair Fothergill and Mark Linfield. It also revives a Disney/nature tradition that was Oscar-friendly back in the day. So, will it be just a fun day at the movies for the kids? Or will it be something more?
