Just a friendly reminder from your friends at The Cult of Cummings that Jim Cummings’ new movie, Disney’s The Princess and The Frog opens nation wide tonight. From the people who got to see it when it was in limited release, it’s getting great reviews with many review citing Jim Cummings as the best part of the film so it is very exciting.
You can read all the reviews as they come in over at Rotten Tomatoes.
But I want to know what YOU think! Did you see the movie? Did you like it? Let us know and share your thoughts below!

I wanted to give you a sneak peek at Jim Cummings’ two songs as Ray in the upcoming The Princess and The Frog.
I have been trying for a while to get my streaming audio player to work and I just can’t get it to cooperate so I am posting these on the honor system. These are meant for you to listen to as a preview so listen to them and enjoy but then, please, delete the file and support Jim Cummings’ career by purchasing the music yourself.

Defying all conventional Emmy Award logic, Jim Ward took away the Emmy prize which, considering he was the least famous and least recognizable name in the batch is no small feat!
Congratulations Jim Ward! Jim Cummings, you’ll just have to show them next time!

“This year I’m going with either Vanessa or Amy,” Cummings said, summing up his competition. “I think folks go down the line and go: ‘Jim Cummings? I don’t really know who that is. Oh, Joan Rivers, Vanessa Williams, I love her; let’s vote for her.’ You can’t fight that. I understand why they do it.” [SOURCE]

Mark your calendars, set your watch and do whatever else you need to remember that the 36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will be on August 30th, 2009 on the CW. Check your local listings for times.
(I’m reminding your early so you cannot blame me if you forget to watch!
)
Will Jim Cummings manage to wrest an Emmy away from the likes of Joan Rivers, Vanessa Williams (the host of the show) or Amy Poehler? Only time will tell.
UPDATE: Jim Cummings’ award will not be televised. Outstanding Performer in an Animated Program will be announced the Saturday before the televised broadcast. Booo!
