Disney’s Chimpanzee Naptime or Playtime Video Clip

Have you seen the previews for “Chimpanzee?”  I was fascinated when I saw it…..and I cannot wait to watch Disney’s newest educational film with my family.  I am pretty sure we will watch this one in the theater since it is bound to look even more amazing on big screen that our home television.  Oscar is an adorable monkey.  I love watching the camera crew in the preview because they are deep into the jungle, and well, that is just a little terrifying to me!

Disneynature takes moviegoers deep into the forests of Africa with “Chimpanzee,” a new True-Life Adventure introducing an adorable young chimp named Oscar and his entertaining approach to life in a remarkable story of family bonds and individual triumph.  Oscar’s playful curiosity and zest for discovery showcase the intelligence and ingenuity of some of the most extraordinary personalities in the animal kingdom. Working together, Oscar’s chimpanzee family—including his mom, Isha, and the group’s savvy leader, Freddy — navigates the complex territory of the forest.

The world is a playground for little Oscar and his fellow young chimps, who’d rather make mayhem than join their parents for an afternoon nap. But when Oscar’s family is confronted by a rival band of chimps, he is left to fend for himself until a surprising ally steps in and changes his life forever.  Directed by Alastair Fothergill (“African Cats” and “Earth”) and Mark Linfield (“Earth”), “Chimpanzee” swings into theaters on Earth Day 2012.
