I wanted to talk about the reality of the journey that Fei Fei went on," Keane told Insider. "I talked about the dream of going to Lunaria. Did it happen?" he continued. "I referred to it as a dream and she said, 'No, it wasn't.' I said, 'Oh, OK. So she really did go, and really did meet Chang'e, and all of that really happened.'"Keane then asked Wells if she believed Dorothy really went to the technicolor-filled world in the classic film, "The Wizard of Oz." She lit up, saying, "Well, of course. Don't you think so?"<div type="image" title="wizard of oz over the moon" height="600" width="1200" msid="78882266" hostid="261"></div>"She just had this childlike sparkle in her eyes and I realized, 'Wow, how wonderful.' I need to keep both sides alive," Keane said. "We will do this film on a razor's edge of whether it happened, whether it was real, whether it was a dream or not, and leave it for the audience to choose."It may not be easily noticeable initially, but the film has more in common with the 1939 film than you may have realized.According to the film's production notes, Wells wrote it as a variation of "The Wizard of Oz," which just happens to be her favorite film. In both films, the female protagonists go on a journey with their beloved pets to find something in order to grow that they take back home with them. Keane said one of the biggest challenges of the film was finding an equivalent to Dorothy's experience of going from Kansas, depicted in black and white, to a technicolored Oz in the 1939 movie. For him, that was animating light.<div type="image" title="over the moon fei fei moon" height="1080" width="1998" msid="78882267" hostid="261"></div>Inspired by Pink Floyd's album cover for "<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=the+dark+side+of+the+moon&amp;source=lnms&amp;tbm=isch&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjhu8T9_dLsAhVKJKwKHeXtA_cQ_AUoAXoECDIQAw&amp;biw=1172&amp;bih=1221mp;biw=1172&amp;bih=1221">The Dark Side of the Moon</a>," the entire atmosphere of Lunaria is equally vibrant and luminescent. One of the biggest parallels you may miss between the two films is that a few characters play dual roles in "Over the Moon."Just as Dorothy went to a dream world filled with larger-than-life personalities, some of whom resembled friends and neighbors, Fei Fei encounters other characters on the moon, who are voiced by family members.<div type="image" title="biker chickens over the moon netflix" height="1101" width="1040" msid="78882268" hostid="261"></div>If the three Biker Chickens felt a bit random in the film, they make more sense when you know they're voiced by the same actors (Margaret Cho, Kimiko Glenn, and Artt Butle) who play some of Fei Fei's aunts and uncles. So, does Fei Fei really travel to the moon? If that's what you want to believe, absolutely. "Over the Moon" is streaming on Netflix.

Fei Fei hopes she can convince her father (John Cho) that her mother will always be his one true love. The extremely personal story, led by a former Disney legend, could give Pixar's <a href="https://www.insider.com/pixar-soul-harmful-black-stereotypes-tropes">big release this holiday season, "Soul,"</a> a tough time when awards season rolls around. At the very least, "Over the Moon" should gain some Oscar attention for its emotional original song, "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVpyijl4K58">Rocket to the Moon</a>."<h2>What you should know: It comes from a legendary Disney animator, has an all Asian cast, and is the final film from screenwriter Audrey Wells</h2><div type="image" title="over the moon glen keane" height="900" width="1200" msid="78832203" hostid="261"></div>In an effort to compete with other animation studios, Netflix has been ramping up its pool of talent over the past few years. How do you follow up 2019's Oscar-nominated "<a href="https://www.insider.com/klaus-netflix-movie-review-2019-11">Klaus</a>" <a href="https://www.insider.com/netflix-klaus-director-sergio-pablos-interview-2019-11">from "Despicable Me" cocreator Sergio Pablos</a>? You hire 38-year Disney veteran <a href="https://www.insider.com/how-glen-keane-went-from-disney-netflix">Glen Keane to direct a feature length movie for you</a>. Keane brought some of Disney's most iconic characters to life, including Ariel ("The Little Mermaid"), the Beast ("Beauty and the Beast"), Pocahontas, Tarzan, and Rapunzel ("Tangled"). Keane codirects "Over the Moon" with former Disney animator John Kahrs, ("Tangled," "Frozen") who won an Oscar for his short "Paperman."Screenwriter Audrey Wells ("The Hate U Give") wrote the film as a <a href="https://www.insider.com/over-the-moon-sandra-oh-casting-story-2020-6">love letter to her daughter and husband</a>. Wells, to whom the film is dedicated, died at the age of 58 after a battle with cancer during production.The cast includes Sandra Oh ("Killing Eve"), Ken Jeong, Phillipa Soo ("Hamilton"), John Cho, Ruthie Ann Miles, Kimiko Glenn, and Margaret Cho.<h2>What's good: Newcomer Cathy Ang will pull at your heartstrings, Keane's mix of 2D animation in a 3D film, and a song that has Oscar potential </h2>Newcomer Cathy Ang gives an emotional and convincing performance as Fei Fei, a young girl, who's skeptical of allowing others into her heart again after the difficult loss of her mother.Fei Fei may not be one of the Disney princesses Keane has animated in the past, but she's an inspiring, bright, courageous, and spunky girl with a love of science. And when you learn the reason behind her short, jagged haircut, it may make you tear up a little.When she sings the film's main song, "Rocket to the Moon," don't be surprised if you're reaching for tissues. The emotional weight of the song as Fei Fei dreams of flying away from her current situation to escape into a dream world in the sky is heartbreaking.<div type="image" title="over the moon chang'e" height="1036" width="1920" msid="78832205" hostid="261"></div>If you're a "Hamilton" fan, you'll want to tune in for Philippa Soo's singing performance as the moon goddess, Chang'e. The larger-than-life diva has a stand-out introduction scene where she performs during her concert to adoring moon fans. Though everything seems shimmering and spectacular on the surface, her colorful fans wind up having a deeply personal connection to the lonely goddess.The addition of Fei Fei's inquisitive and adorable pet rabbit, Bungee — a gift from her late mother — should also become an instant favorite. It's the sort of character you could see turned into a stuffed animal. (So I wasn't surprised when a quick Google search told me Netflix and Mattel partnered to turn Bungee and other characters <a href="https://shop.mattel.com/shop/SearchDisplay?categoryId=&amp;storeId=10151&amp;catalogId=10103&amp;langId=-1&amp;sType=SimpleSearch&amp;resultCatEntryType=2&amp;showResultsPage=true&amp;searchSource=Q&amp;pageView=&amp;beginIndex=0&amp;pageSize=36&amp;reflectionEnableSwitchVal=&amp;searchTerm=over+the+moon#facet:&amp;productBeginIndex:0&amp;orderBy:&amp;pageView:grid&amp;minPrice:&amp;maxPrice:&amp;pageSize:&amp;contentPageSize:&amp;ageView:grid&amp;minPrice:&amp;maxPrice:&amp;pageSize:&amp;contentPageSize:&amp;">into dolls and plus</a><a href="https://shop.mattel.com/shop/SearchDisplay?categoryId=&amp;storeId=10151&amp;catalogId=10103&amp;langId=-1&amp;sType=SimpleSearch&amp;resultCatEntryType=2&amp;showResultsPage=true&amp;searchSource=Q&amp;pageView=&amp;beginIndex=0&amp;pageSize=36&amp;reflectionEnableSwitchVal=&amp;searchTerm=over+the+moon#facet:&amp;productBeginIndex:0&amp;orderBy:&amp;pageView:grid&amp;minPrice:&amp;maxPrice:&amp;pageSize:&amp;contentPageSize:&amp;ageView:grid&amp;minPrice:&amp;maxPrice:&amp;pageSize:&amp;contentPageSize:&amp;">h</a>.)<div type="image" title="over the moon bungee" height="2160" width="3996" msid="78832209" hostid="261"></div>Later, once Fei Fei makes her way to the moon — a fluorescent, fantastical, floating kingdom— she's taken on an adventure similar to when Dorothy visits Oz or Alice falls into Wonderland. You may wonder if she really even traveled to the moon or if it was all one grand dream. Ultimately, Fei Fei's quest helps her come to terms with the idea of allowing someone new into her life.It's easy to see the influence of everything Keane learned about the pacing of Disney storytelling in the way "Over the Moon" is laid out.<div type="image" title="over the moon fei fei moon" height="1080" width="1998" msid="78832213" hostid="261"></div>One moment in the film, when Fei Fei's mother delivers mooncakes to anxious customers, it's tough not to recall a certain similar moment in "Beauty and the Beast" where a woman requires six eggs from a baker.Keane didn't just direct. He told Insider if he was going to make a movie, he wanted it to be one where he was also animating the story of a lead character, who's making the impossible possible. That's what Fei Fei does on her journey to the moon.Though the film is mostly done using computer animation, Keane also shows off his 2D animation roots as he brings the legend of Chang'e to life dancing on a scarf.<div type="image" title="over the moon 2d glen keane" height="1080" width="1998" msid="78832215" hostid="261"></div><h2>What's not: While sweet, the film lingers in the realm of predictability to never feel especially extraordinary. Too many songs weigh it down.</h2>There's no question "Over the Moon" is beautifully animated and thoughtful, especially with such sensitive material.It also stays authentic to Chinese culture. Subtle additions were added into the animation to ensure Fei Fei didn't feel Americanized. It's likely due to the fact that the production not only traveled to China, but it's also produced by Chinese production company Pearl Studios. Keane told Insider at least one scene was reanimated a few times to make sure Fei Fei's response to her future stepmother early in the film reflected a genuine depiction of a 12-year-old.While the first half hour of the film is immensely engaging (and will likely make you want to learn how to make a mooncake), it loses a little of its steam halfway through when Fei Fei finds herself on the moon.<div type="image" title="over the moon fei fei family" height="1945" width="3600" msid="78832221" hostid="261"></div>The musical is stuffed with a few too many songs, some that feel more forced than others as the film carries on. It's great to see a return to the animated musicals many grew up with in the '90s, but not every bit of dialogue needs to be sang if the same meaning can come across through spoken word. If you've lost someone close to you, or have grown up with a single parent, "Over the Moon" perfectly captures the hesitation one may experience in allowing new love into your life. While sweet, the film feels a little paint-by-numbers. It's predictable. By its end, the film doesn't pack as much of an emotional punch as it thinks it does during its climax.Though it serves as a good watch with a valuable lesson at its core, "Over the Moon" likely won't be one you'll revisit over and over again.<h2>Grade: B</h2>"Over the Moon" is available to stream on Netflix.

"<a href="https://www.insider.com/category/over-the-moon">Over the Moon</a>" follows a young girl, Fei Fei (Cathy Ang), as she grapples with her father moving on after the loss of her mother. Fei Fei builds a rocket to travel to the moon to prove the existence of the goddess, Chang'e, a story her mother used to share with her.Oh ("Killing Eve") voices Fei Fei's future stepmother, Mrs. Zhong.<div type="image" title="over the moon fei fei rabbit" height="2160" width="3996" msid="76532669" hostid="261"></div>The film is the first feature-length movie directed by legendary Disney animator Glen Keane. It's also the last film from screenwriter Audrey Wells ("The Hate U Give"). Wells <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/audrey-wells-dead-under-tuscan-sun-hate-u-give-screenwriter-was-58-1149868">died in 2018</a>, at the age of 58, after a battle with cancer. Oh has a long history of working with the screenwriter. She had previously appeared in Wells' first movie, "<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0160338/?ref_=nm_flmg_wr_9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Guinevere</a>," "<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0328589/?ref_=nm_flmg_wr_7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Under the Tuscan Sun</a>," and "<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0247638/">The Princess Diaries</a>," which Wells had a hand in writing. "Over the Moon" producer Gennie Rim approached Oh at a Writers Guild memorial service for Wells in hopes to get her to be a part of the screenwriter's final movie."I did my stalker move where we were trying to get you to become part of this and I know the schedule wasn't working," said Rim, recalling the moment for the cast and crew.<div type="image" title="over the moon zoom talent" height="1080" width="1920" msid="76532673" hostid="261"></div>This was the first time many of them were meeting for the first time since making the film."I knew you were there and I heard that you had left the building and I ran after you into the parking lot," Rim continued. "I stopped your car and I said, 'Please. Please. Please be a part of this.' I felt a wave of Audrey pulling me to come find you to be part of this.""Everything about that moment was right," said Oh."I did know she was sick. Do you know what I mean? And, it's for lots of reasons that it's difficult to read something that you... that just is…" Oh said of it being tough to pick up and read Wells' script as she visibly held back tears.After their parking lot encounter, Oh took a look at the script. "When I read it, it was just like... It was like Audrey just basically punched me in the face," said Oh. "And it's just like, 'What are you doing? You need to…' Yeah, there's a lot of meaning in this for all of us and I do have a personal connection with that."The film, based on the <a href="http://www.moonfestival.org/the-legend-of-chang-e.html">tale of Chang'e and the archer, Houyi</a>, also stars John Cho, Ruthie Ann Miles, Phillipa Soo ("Hamilton"), Ken Jeong, Kimiko Glenn, and Margaret Cho. <div type="image" title="over the moon family" height="1080" width="1998" msid="76532676" hostid="261"></div>During a nearly 40-minute conversation with press, producer Peilin Chou described Wells as "the heart and soul" of "Over the Moon." "I came to know, much later in the process, how meaningful the script was to her," said Chou. "About a year in, she shared with me that she was sick and she didn't know how much time she had left.""She had written this script as a love letter to her daughter and her husband with a very wonderful message about what happens when you lose someone, that the love that you share lasts forever," Chou added. "It was something she really wanted her daughter to have and know. She told me it was the most important script she had ever written."<div type="image" title="over the moon fei fei family" height="1945" width="3600" msid="76532681" hostid="261"></div>Chou said it was important to Wells that the story was made and she was able to screen a version of the film before her death, which she "really, really loved.""I was so happy that you stopped my car," Oh said to Rim, explaining it was as if Wells was telling her, "You did my first film. You need to do the last one.""I'm so grateful that it was still open for me to be a part of and to join the cast," said Oh. "We are grateful," said Rim, adding, "Thank you for not driving away from a crazy person who was running after you.""Over the Moon" will stream on Netflix this fall.

That means it can theoretically work in a lot more places than Apple Pay.According to a <a href="http://recode.net/2014/12/16/samsung-in-talks-to-launch-apple-pay-competitor/">report last year in Re/code</a>, Samsung plans to incorporate LoopPay's technology in its next flagship phone, the Galaxy S6. Samsung will formally introduce the Galaxy S6 at an event in Barcelona on March 1.LoopPay makes cases for popular smartphones like the iPhone with its payment tech embedded inside. It recently released a case for the iPhone 6. It also makes dongles for your keychain if you don't have a smartphone compatible with one of its cases.Developing...<a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/samsung-buys-looppay-2015-2">refresh for the latest</a>.Here's the full press release:Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced that it has agreed to acquire LoopPay, the acclaimed mobile wallet solutions provider that turns existing magnetic stripe readers into secure, contactless receivers. LoopPay's technology has the potential to work in approximately 90% of existing point-of-sale (POS) terminals, according to internal research, with no investment in new infrastructure required by merchants. LoopPay will join Samsung to strengthen the company's overall efforts to provide users with seamless, safe, and reliable mobile wallet solutions. As part of the acquisition, LoopPay founders and veteran payment industry entrepreneurs Will Graylin and George Wallner will work closely with Samsung's Mobile Division. LoopPay has built an advanced and widely accepted contactless payment solution using its patented Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) technology. LoopPay's talent and technology, paired with Samsung's world leading mobile technology, global presence, and distribution capabilities will help drive the next wave of innovation in the digital smart wallet."This acquisition accelerates our vision to drive and lead innovation in the world of mobile commerce. Our goal has always been to build the smartest, most secure, user-friendly mobile wallet experience, and we are delighted to welcome LoopPay to take us closer to this goal," said JK Shin, President and Head of IT and Mobile Division at Samsung Electronics. Samsung has an existing relationship with LoopPay, having first identified the potential for the pioneering technology when it became a strategic investor along with Visa and Synchrony Financial. The investment, which was facilitated by Samsung's Global Innovation Center, helped fuel LoopPay's MST technology development."We are excited to take our relationship with LoopPay to the next level, by bringing consumers a mobile wallet solution that is not just safe and reliable, but also widely accepted at more locations than any competing service," said David Eun, EVP of Samsung's Global Innovation Center. "Through this deal we can significantly accelerate our mobile commerce efforts.

Samsung will buy Apple Pay competitor LoopPay

Democrats projected to retain their House majority but lose key seats to Republicans

Christmas is one of the biggest movie days of the year.
This year, eight movies will come out on Dec. 25.
If you're heading to theaters, and aren't sure what to see, we've compiled which films are worth checking out and which you should wait for on DVD.&#xa0;
<h3>1. Pass: "Unbroken"</h3>
What it's about:&#xa0;Based on a true life story, the World War II movie follows former track star Louis Zamperini (Jack O'Connell)&#xa0;as he spends over two years in Japanese prisoner of war camps after surviving a plane crash.
Why to see it:&#xa0;The survival story is Angelina Jolie's third time behind the director's chair&#xa0;with a script from the Oscar-winning team of Joel and Ethan Coen ("Fargo").
Why to pass:&#xa0;While the film covers a lot of ground, reviews suggest the movie <a href="http://www.timeout.com/london/film/unbroken">doesn't completely capture the essence</a> of Zamperini while <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movie/unbroken/review/752885">shortchanging on a few significant scenes</a> from Laura Hillenbrand's book of the same name.
The film failed to gain any big nods at the Golden Globes which doesn't bode well for the film at the Oscars.
<h3>2. Must See: "The Imitation Game"</h3>
What it's about:&#xa0;The World War II film follows mathematician Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) as he leads a secret team on a mission to crack a code that will allow the British to decipher secret German codes and help win the war. The film is getting its wide release on Christmas.
Why it's a must-see: See the film for Cumberbatch and co-star Keira Knightley alone. Both are masterful on screen. Cumberbatch has a knack for playing awkwardly humorous geniuses on screen.
The story of Turing and how he helped win the war was a long held government secret that took a tragic turn due to the mathematician's homosexuality which was illegal at the time. This part of the film feels slightly rushed through.
Both Cumberbatch and Knightley received Golden Globe nominations for their roles. Cumberbatch is almost certainly a lock for an Oscar nomination.
<h3>3. See: "Selma"</h3>
What it's about: The film follows&#xa0;Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (David Oyelowo) as he attempts to lead a voting march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in 1965.
Why to see it: Powerful and emotional, it's&#xa0;impossible to watch this film without thinking of the parallels between the protests today in light of the Eric Garner and Ferguson cases.&#xa0;David Oyelowo is the perfect embodiment of Dr. King.
One scene that sticks out in particular is a hard-to-watch&#xa0;portrayal of Bloody Sunday in which 600 marchers were brutally attacked.
As our reporter Brett Arnold <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/selma-speaks-to-contemporary-race-issues-2014-12">points out in his review</a>, it's an important film not only to see where we came from but to help show how much farther we need to go as a nation.&#xa0;
<h3>4. For the family/musical lover: "Into the Woods"</h3>
What it's about:&#xa0;The adaptation of the book and musical of the same name follows a group of fairy-tale characters&#xa0;from "Cinderella," "Jack and the Beanstalk," "Rapunzel," and "Little Red Riding Hood" after a curse is placed upon a baker and his wife by an evil witch (Meryl Streep).
Why to see it: Anna Kendrick, Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp, and more singing. Need we say more?
Disney not only has an all-star cast, but composer Stephen Sondheim,&#xa0;the lyricist behind plays including "West Side Story," "Sweeney Todd," and "Into the Woods."
<h3>The four other movies coming out Christmas Day:</h3>
5. "Big Eyes": Tim Burton's comedic drama based on the true-life story of artist Margaret Keane&#xa0;(Amy Adams)&#xa0;whose husband Walter (Christoph Waltz) started taking credit for her successful paintings of characters with big eyes.&#xa0;Both actors were nominated for Golden Globes. See it.
6. "The Gambler":&#xa0;Mark Wahlberg stars as a professor who has a double life as a gambler and gets involved with a student.&#xa0;Skip.
7. "American Sniper":&#xa0;Clint Eastwood's second film this year ("Jersey Boys")&#xa0;is based on the New York Times' best-seller of the same name starring Bradley Cooper as United States Navy SEAL Chris Kyle who&#xa0;was known as the deadliest sniper in US history. See it.
8. "Leviathan":&#xa0;The Russian drama is about a&#xa0;man fighting against a corrupt mayor to retain ownership of his property. The film is currently sitting at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes with&#xa0;<a href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/leviafan/?search=leviathan">over 30 positive reviews</a>.&#xa0;&#xa0;The film won <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2802154/awards?ref_=tt_awd">best screenplay at the Cannes Film Festival</a> this year. A good alternative from the ordinary.
<h3>Other films to check out:</h3>
If you don't want to see any of those movies, here are a few recent releases you should consider seeing over the holidays.
<h3>"Top Five"</h3>
Release date: Dec. 12
Chris Rock's return to theaters is both funny and&#xa0;and an introspective look at fame. Rock plays Andre Allen, a washed-up actor known for a franchise in which he plays a cop in a bear suit called "Hammy the Bear." Years later, Allen tries to rejuvenate his career with a more serious role; however, most reporters just want to talk about his old franchise. In many ways, the film echoes this year's earlier film "Birdman," starring Michael Keaton but without the feeling of a dramatic one-shot.&#xa0;
Fans hoping to see Kevin Hart, who has been a regular in promos for the film, will be disappointed by a short cameo from the comedian. However, there are a few other big cameos in the film to make up for it.
<h3>"The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies"</h3>
Release date: Dec. 17
The best of "The Hobbit" trilogy, director Peter Jackson's final installment takes us back to Middle Earth one last time to battle a dragon Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch) and a handful of armies who descend upon a mountain filled with treasure.
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/hobbit-battle-of-the-five-armies-review-2014-12">While not perfect</a>, this is the movie with the majority of the action that fans have been waiting for through two other installments. The film is already performing very well overseas and should end up with one of the largest hauls at the box office this year by the end of its run.
<h3>"The Theory of Everything"</h3>
Release date:&#xa0;Nov. 7
Eddie Redmayne's magnificent portrayal of Stephen Hawking not only earned him a Golden Globes nomination, but also wowed Hawking himself. As a result, he&#xa0;allowed filmmakers to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/stephen-hawking-voice-in-the-theory-of-everything-2014-10">swap out a synthetic voice they created for Hawking's character with his own trademarked version</a>.
Redmayne trained for four months to play the cosmologist, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/how-eddie-redmayne-prepared-to-play-stephen-hawking-2014-10">reading everything and watching every video he could find on the theoretical physicist</a>. He also regularly worked with a choreographer and visited a neurology clinic where he spoke to patients.&#xa0;
Not only does the film narrates Hawking's life, but also the hardships it brought upon his relationship with wife Jane, beautifully played by Felicity Jones.
<h3>"Inherent Vice"</h3>
Release date: Dec. 12 (limited). Wide release is Jan. 9
Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon reunite in a wacky detective tale where Larry "Doc" Sportello (Phoenix) investigates the disappearance of an ex girlfriend.
Based on the novel by Thomas Pynchon, our own Brett Arnold says the film is worth a watch for Phoenix's performance alone as a "<a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/inherent-vice-review-2014-10">pot-smoking hippie who obliviously stumbles from one major clue to the next.</a>"
Phoenix received a Golden Globe nod for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical.
