More Disney Dream Portraits

A few years ago I posted a bunch of photos taken by Annie Leibovitz of celebrities as Disney characters as part of Disney's Year of a Million Dreams promotion, and recently a few more have surfaced.  A couple of these I think are kind of inspired, and a couple I think are kind of a stretch, but I wanted to post them regardless.  I think it's a really cool idea, and I'm glad to see they've released a few more.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens as Phillip and Aurora

Alec Baldwin as the Magic Mirror and Olivia Wilde as the Evil Queen

Jeff Bridges as the Prince and Penelope Cruz as Belle

Queen Latifah as Ursula

The first one seems to have been released prior to the following three, and I kind of wish they had used some more established and long-lasting actors for it, but oh well.  That kiss is so awkward, and she's not even sleeping.  Alec Baldwin is kind of, I don't know, ridiculous or something, but Olivia Wilde is perfect as the Evil Queen.  I like Penelope Cruz as Belle, but Jeff Bridges looks entirely too Photoshopped to match (nice work slimming down that belly).  I was surprised and impressed to discover that for Queen Latifah's shoot, they actually built a squid apparatus for her to sit in for the photos, complete with all six legs--it seems obvious it would be completely digitally-created, but not so!  (See here -- scroll down to the behind-the-scenes photos.)  Also, is it of note to anyone else that two of the features actors in this new set starred in TRON: Legacy?  Interesting.  I guess that's what you call synergy.
