To be fair, Splash Mountain was already an IP installation though. Technically two, since it's a ride using the characters from Song of the South, and named after the movie Splash. I totally agree with this sentiment, it was hard to lose Maelstrom to Frozen, but I think in this case it's not as...

Oh yes, VOD would make more sense! There are so many digital movie options now, I'm getting them all mixed up. I do still think we'd have already seen it happen, but maybe as more and more movie studios try it out, Disney will feel more comfortable with it. It makes perfect sense that Trolls was...

Yeah, I feel like if this were truly something they were considering, the movie would be out on Disney+ already. We’re two months past it’s premiere date, if they thought it would do better on streaming they’d have already tried. I could maybe see them waiting to see how Artemis Fowl does as a...

The Frozen tour has officially cancelled its stop in Boston - granted, it is one of several to have cancelled this “Broadway in Boston” season. Some other shows in the season’s lineup, such as Anastasia, have postponed or rescheduled. I hope they’re able to continue the tour at some point, but...

If Kingdom Keepers was nixed for having too much Disney content, then Kingdom Hearts definitely won't be moving forward either. Live Action would be a weird direction to go in too, I don't think Donald Duck, Goofy, or Mickey would translate particularly well to a "live action" aesthetic.

I’ve seen speculation that Frozen was Disney’s worst performing musical currently running, and they were planning on closing it in the coming year to make way for another show - between The Princess Bride, Hercules, and supposedly a Beauty and the Beast revival, Disney certainly had a few ideas...

I am so confused by this. They're reacting to Universal saying they make more money bypassing theaters by...helping them bypass theaters? I think these theaters just want some splashy news coverage - especially AMC. They're already at the brink of bankruptcy, refusing to carry some of the...

I heard on the news this morning that our doctors here in MA think we've come through the worst of it and peaked over the weekend (obviously too soon to tell, but a glimmer of hope) so if there's any logic being applied to no travel-restrictions on MA residents specifically I'd imagine it might...

Last month a pair of Little Mermaid ears that retailed for $160 bucks sold out in less than a week - I'm a collector, but some of these prices are insane now.

Yes, it is definitely one of the tamer elements of the movie. Censoring that but none of John Candy's part is baffling to me

It would have to be fear of complaints - Splash wasn't available until February, and these changes were already included. Unless they got complaints about Hulk's nudity in Thor

Exactly. Decapitation, mass-genocide, Darth Maul getting literally split in half, all totally fine and family friendly. Daryl Hannah walking around like Lady Godiva for what amounts to not even one minute of footage, ABSOLUTELY NOT. This is just one of those things that I'm surprised is still an...

yes, Touchstone was specifically formed for Splash to be distributed under a name other than Disney. what’s also very annoying is people have pointed out there is comparable male nudity present on Disney+ ( in a Marvel movie and several Simpsons episodes, plus I think a few other instances )...

A lot of talk on Twitter today about Disney+’s censorship of “Splash,” a personal favorite of mine. A few articles have been written about it too, and how odd that this movie was censored for content but other, more unsettling content in other movies has been left as-is...

I really hope an amended version of Iger's book comes out in a year or so, with an epilogue that explains why he decided to leave so suddenly, despite writing his intention on staying on through 2021. That's the big reason why I can't imagine his stepping down was planned - why publish a book...

I heard the reason why Disney World never added a Moana meet-and-greet was because they couldn't find enough women in the Orlando area who fit the character description, so unless that changes somehow we probably won't be getting a Moana meet-and-greet anywhere but at Aulani anytime soon.

Yes, I was shocked to learn that Mulan is the most expensive remake yet - even more-so than technology heavy remakes like Lion King or Beauty and the Beast. While of course we haven't seen Mulan yet, it seems like one that could have been made on a smaller budget and still been effective.

No, if there's anything that day it would be to celebrate the 50th Anniversary. Any grand reopening celebration beyond a small little wink or nod on the first day would be in incredibly poor taste.

My thoughts have been going more towards the studios, wondering what movies and shows they just decide to cancel instead of eventually picking up again. I know the Little Mermaid remake had already recorded the songs, but nothing else - I wonder if they just cut their losses with that and other...

it’s wild to think that something can have too much Disney in it for Disney+. Maybe that’s why they haven’t added Once Upon A Time!
