With all the craziness in life the blog doesn't get a ton of updating anymore, but this one was big enough that it's worth a dedicated post (even if it is a short one).
After months under cover and subject to numerous internal rumors we can finally announce:
The National Park Service is getting a feature length movie for the centennial!
The film is being produced by MacGillivray Freeman Films, a highly renowned IMAX studio. For those who are not familial with the IMAX world, these are the rockstars that produced Everest, which is the highest grossing IMAX film of all time. Trailer for Everest Here
A brief blurb about the upcoming NPS movie is posted on the MacGillivray Freemen Website here. And I'll copy the text here, for those that don't wish to click through.

AMERICA WILD: A NATIONAL PARKS ADVENTURE
The U.S. National Park Service turns 100 years old in 2016, marking a major milestone in the preservation of America’s wild, pristine spaces. America Wild: A National Parks Adventure brings the magnificence of these landscapes to the giant screen and introduces us to compelling individuals who live in, explore or work in these great places.
Today’s national parks system includes more than 400 iconic landmarks—spectacularly wild and beautiful places like Yellowstone, Yosemite, the Everglades and Glacier National Park that represent the heritage and spirit of America and make a rich pallet for a giant-screen film.
In partnership with Brand USA. Presented by Expedia. Available February 2016.
