Broadcasting avoid Royal Caribbean's allure of the seas. This is Cruise Radio, I'm Matt Basker. Doug Parker is over on the red carpet for the premiere of DreamWorks Animation's upcoming film Pussin' Boots, which opens, by the way, nationwide October 28. I know Antonio Banderas and Selma Hayek, two of the stars of the film, are here today. on this show we're going to talk to the Allure of the Seas captain, Captain Zini, also the cruise director, Ken Rush, and we'll get some passenger reviews of the Allure of the Seas.

But first, let's go to Doug Parker.

Joining us on the red carpet is president and CEO of Royal Caribbean International, Mr. Adam Goldstein.

Mr. Goldstein, they recently just announced the DreamWork experience aboard Voyager of the Seas,

which is heading over to Asia next year.

What's the response been in the local market?

In Shanghai on Tuesday, where I announced, along with the DreamWorks president's CFO,

the extension of the DreamWorks experience onto Voyager of the Seas when she comes to China

next year, an unbelievable attendance of media, like crazy. And so you can see that in China,

they are just totally into the DreamWorks experience. And I know that Kung Fu Panda was, I believe it was the largest

grossing animation movie ever in China, and maybe it was the second largest or something,

a movie of any type. I know that Jeffrey Katzenberg can answer that better than I can,

but it's a huge phenomenon in China. So whether it's here in the United States or on the other side of the world, there's a real attraction of these characters. And I give the credit to DreamWorks Animation. They created great characters and great stories. Everybody loves them. And the nice thing for us is that all ages love them the the adults are totally into it and obviously

the kids are as well and here it comes ladies and gentlemen the captain of the world's largest

cruise ship captain zini captain welcome to cruise radio have you had a chance to talk to

Antonio bandaris or Salma Hayek yet they are really really they are really, really nice people. You know, we heard that. You know, people, people, your reputation normally precedes you, but to see them, they're really warm, really friendly, and you can see they have a lot of passion for what they do. The big question is, are you going to give them a tour of the bridge? No, yet, no, we haven't had time. They've been very busy, you know. Their agenda, you can imagine, it's music,

but they're more than welcome to, to join me there if they want, of course. Any inside secrets you can give us about Puss and Boots? Not yet, not yet. They keep it very guarded, but all they say there's going to be a lot of smiles for the families. And I think that's something we are looking forward to.

Fran and Golden with us, what are your thoughts of this premiere on the ship?
