Now that’s interesting, wonder if it’ll be something like what they did with the Country Bear AAs in that they’re updated to be hybrid hydraulic & electric for better/smoother/more finely articulated movement. Admittedly, my hope would be if that’s what they’re doing, they make the parts that...

While on the topic, I feel like I should mention.. I’d read about something not too long ago, can’t remember where, but apparently, back in the early 80s or so, there had been a proposal to bring a Carousel of Progress show back to Disneyland called the “Century of Progress”, sadly though, the...

I ought to mention.. the singing voice is Infact not Jean Shepard but voice actor, Jess Harnell, so.. ultimately, if they really wanted to, they could get Jess back in and have him record new dialogue. It’d probably sound indistinguishable from Jean’s original performance, but again, depends...

Hate to correct you here, but that actually isn’t the case. If we’re to go off a production slide I have that features a photo of that puppet Figment being filmed against the green screen, the newer Dreamfinder’s School of Drama segment was produced in ‘91, which checks out as that would’ve been...

All things considered, despite being pretty hard on him in the past, though I honestly think Tom Fitzgerald and his team did a pretty darn good job on this one. It does need some plussing here & there (Walt’s eyebrows and thinning of the face to look more accurate, removing the animation where...

That’s part of why I further feel the Honey I Shrunk IP-themed institute transformation plus the focus to make it more scientific wasn’t necessary. Like.. Science was presented flawlessly in the original, and like I’ve mentioned previously, there was a sensory funhouse in the Wonders of Life...

Def agree they should’ve kept the original sign outside ‘but’ I wouldn’t put it out of the realm of possibility that it and the original ride could absolutely return w the tech & spfx enhancements we’d like to see. I really don’t think it’d be that difficult, considering how much of the original...

Honestly I think this is an incredibly tasteful enhancement they’ve done to the ride. I think the new written lyrics sound good and the vocals are very good aswell. Sounds nearly indistinguishable from the rest of the original audio. Gotta give props to the team in charge of this, I do agree...

I’d say it honestly takes a balance depending on circumstances. Honestly I think more people enjoyed EPCOT than those that didn’t.. but then again, I don’t have any internal data on that to prove anything and can only go off what I’ve seen and have heard most folks discuss on social media &...

You’re right on that first half.. but the second half I kinda disagree with, while it’s true not everything will appeal to everybody, that’s just a fact of life, the reality is, they ‘should’ usually try to make things that appeal to the widest range of audience and not just subsects. And in...

Changing the ride’s IP to Inside Out with a focus on the emotions rather than the Honey I Shrunk IP, w a focus on the 5 Senses w Figment shoehorned in currently would be missing the point to what actually destroyed the ride in ‘99 & ‘02 to begin with. (Hint: It was getting rid of the original...

Basically, what I’m saying is, it’s better for both the original film makers ‘and’ the creative industry as a whole. If, as opposed to the same studio making a shot for shot remake of their original films. It’s better to either make a prequel or sequel that utilize as much of the original...

Never said they couldn’t. Btw, Wicked isn’t a retelling of Wizard of Oz. It’s a prequel story. Also, it’s by a different studio (Universal Pictures) than the original Wizard of Oz film (Warner Bros. is the current rights holder to the original film and that was produced originally by MGM. The...

It I strictly have to pick between those two proposals though, I’d def be more on board with a Hades movie then a live action remake of the animated Hercules .. ‘however’, again, try to keep the character & story integrity in place that doesn’t retcon any of the original film and work w some of...

I’m in favor of leaving Hercules and the other animated classics alone and focusing on making their new/original/new story not yet adapted animated (and live action on that note) films stellar again. And as a cushion re-releasing the classics all in theaters, new 4K remastered prints if they...

A Goofy Movie is being shown for a D23 special event and only select theaters & venues. It’s not a wide release basically. But A Goofy Movie in general absolutely has had a big marketing push. Disneyland, the Powerline Max popcorn buckets and such. BoxLunch, tons of themed merch for it. Not to...

I’d argue most of the Disney classics do infact have a following for the impact that they made and the talent involved. That and all 3 of those Pixar movies were generally well received aswell. Constantly I see them (both) spoken about and showcased. And as a I mention previously, much of any...

Were they marketed & merchandised all that well for said theatrical release? Were they released in the theater at a time where folks would for sure be spending big at the movies, to make up losses of films that weren’t successful? That’s the core of that issue. And again, it didn’t help matters...

And let me just clarify, not all sequels are a bad idea. Just look at the original Star Wars & Indiana Jones trilogies, the Toy Story trilogy. If you come up with a good enough story that keeps proper integrity to the characters & story so far and genuinely trust in the talent involved over just...

Then… why have original films mainly been the fuel that have constantly gotten the company back on track rather than remakes & sequels throughout history? Do you think Peter Pan: Return to Neverland or Ralph Breaks the Internet made a bigger critical & cultural impact than say, Frozen or Big...
