There is nothing wrong with it and it's an extension of democracy. There is strength in numbers and people with aligned interests should be able to contribute to causes that they care about. We don't have publicly financed elections and candidates need to raise money. PACs are accountable...

Open Secrets. Again this was federal PAC distributions. https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/C00197749/summary/2020

It's not secret information - completely available and publicly disclosed.

All of these points get a strong thumbs up!

The full number is 57.66% to Democrats and 42.34% to Republican federal candidates in 2020. They raised $278,025 and dispersed $124,000 - $71,500 went to Democrats and $52,500 went to Republicans. Of course, the MPAA and IAPA carry the largest burden to donate through their own PACs and I...

Disney's PAC contributions are 57% Democrat to 42% GOP.

I also don't agree with 100% of what Iger has done, but I can't stack those reasons up and call him a failure. The stock price tells the tale. What he did with Marvel and Star Wars will bring massive long term benefits to the company. The investments in China would be doing much better if not...

This event has always been a Disney infomercial and that's the whole point of it. Of course they are pushing Disney owned talent.

I remember a story a week or so back about Pfizer not being happy with the quality of materials they received from suppliers to produce the vaccine in the early batches. I think that is why production has gone off schedule.

There is talk of a water planet (Kamino?) - makes me think Obi does leave the desert....

Take this description of the footage from the investor event with all the grains of salt available.

There's bias on both sides. It's increasingly rare not to find it in the most cited news sources - especially on cable news. But that's what we get when media consolidation makes news entertainment instead of journalism most of the time.

Not if it's just a basic urban development to capture revenue. Why spend more on something that won't carry the Disney brand?

Yeah - her saying it will be the rematch of the century now makes me a bit concerned that Vader and Obi-Wan will be crossing lightsabers. That is totally unnecessary since we know the Empire has a complete set of Inquisitors whose soul purpose is to purge the remaining Jedi. We know he did do...

I think the Ahsoka series will be right next to Mando - I heard there could be a cross-over event that ties Ahsoka, Rangers and Mando together. Also, there are rumors of a High Republic animated show which pre-dates the The Acolytes and Taika Waittiti's movies, which were mentioned quickly, but...

This is the soft re-booting of Star Wars. Get the taste out of everyone's mouths from the sequel trilogy and then start new once everyone has been focused on the series they are producing. To your points: You would expect an Obi-Wan series set 10 years after the end of ROTS to have at least...

If you only go by the OT movies, then nothing happens, but if you fill in the canon comics that have come out recently, a whole lot happened between ROTS and ANH. According to the rumors I've seen, This is going to be a limited run series (8 episodes, I think) that will focus on Vader calling on...

Funny thing about world showcase lagoon being a circle. If something blocks your view, just walk a little further and there it is!

Of course, for everyone of him, there is one of me - same deal. No kids, disposable income and a massive SW fan. I'd stay for the experience.

That's the thing for me. It isn't any personal attachment to the current theme of Splash, it's the use of animatronics and a really well designed environment in the ride with background characters. My concern is that you have Splash Mountain, which has extremely creative aspects and immersion...
