I don’t know that either Disney/Hulu or the comedian come off looking great from this. It’s also unclear from the comedian how these jokes were watered down/edited. Did he do ADR? Did they use some form of AI to soften the blow? In my day Disney used to host an entire improv comedy club where...

RIP Terry Bollea, famously known as “Hulk Hogan” and later as industry-shattering Hollywood Hulk Hogan. His reputation publicly and privately over the last decade has been the subject of many points of contention and controversy, and I do not think it wise to discuss here. For a variety of...

I have a few trips planned in Jan 2026 and Jan 2027 and am weighing the costs/benefits of doing an AP vs separate multi-day park passes. One hesitancy I have is the notion that the parks will be, to varying degrees, a perpetual construction zone (virtually all with the exception of EPCOT - my...

My Disney fandom took a pause between young adulthood (late 90’s) until when I was done having kids (mid-2010’s) so I missed the post-9/11 and Great Recession eras of the parks. I understand from listening to podcasts like Disney Dish that it drastically affected things, such as completion of...

According to The Wrap… https://www.thewrap.com/disney-ai-initiative/ Most of the focus will be on postproduction and VFX, but non-customer facing changes at Parks and Experiences is also mentioned

Mr. Boogedy is on there, as are the Deadpool films. What’s the justification for why this catalogue film is nowhere to be found on the streamer?

Composer extraordinaire Michael Giacchino just released a new album, which is lounge versions of some of his most noteworthy compositions (including many Disney ones). He is my favorite active film composer, and these renditions are just terrific. It also bodes well for his score for the...

In another thread, @MerlinTheGoat has shared that “something major” has been funded and it’s not what’s been rumored or slated for MK or DAK. I thought it may be worthwhile to add some grist to this rumor mill in its own thread. Any insight, speculation, or guesses here?

It looks like the 90’s era Gargoyles video game based on the animated series is getting the remastered treatment. https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2023/09/new-disney-gargoyles-remastered-video-game-launches-on-oct-19/?CMP=SOC-DPFY23Q4wo0831230044H

It’s been announced, and now details are starting to trickle out:

Which would you choose? I don’t mean WDW vs DL, I mean, say, MK or DAK of EP. Not resort are, but specific park. My vote’s for Disneyland.

Ahem.

Earlier this year we saw some more generous discounts off of WDW resorts and resort packages than we’ve seen since the start of the pandemic. Now, in the last few days, I’ve gotten more than a few emails from DVC rental companies slashing their costs per points for future reservations. I...

I had to leave DFB because they lost Molly (followed her to her new endeavor) and because DFB started doing a bunch of those video shorts. Felt spammy. And while I know a lot of people do not care for The Site Which Shall Not Be Named, I really liked their main news recap shows. Had to stop...

Today I've seen no less than four categories of price increases - Genie+ going to variable pricing ($15-$22, and perhaps higher), SWGE lightsaber (was $220, now $250) and droid building (was $99, now $120) have increased, and the refillable mugs are now $22 per visit (up from $20). Any others...

Over the weekend Chapek was interviewed by Deadline as to his plans for the Metaverse, and he had this to say: DEADLINE: That sounds like a very big swing, but how does it work on a practical level? CHAPEK: Here’s how. So, we wish every person would have the opportunity to come to our parks...

https://deadline.com/2022/08/bert-bertie-big-thunder-mountain-disney-luckychap-and-scott-free-1235093441/ I wonder how this will affect the rides, or the long-gestating S.E.A. project (since Barnabas T. Bullion was one of the owners of the Big Thunder Mining Company)
