News Round Up 2018

We actually board a Disney Cruise ship two days after Black Panther opens so we will get to watch it while on the ship, which should be fun!

I too am surprised no trailer for Solo, though they do have three movies coming out prior to it that are getting a ton of buzz and a ton of millage out of the trailers for them - but still, even a teaser trailer so people get an idea of the look and feel of the movie, how the "new" Han Solo will look, etc. - doesn't take much to get people at least a little excited for it

Oh man didn't even think of that. We board the week after that. Boy that ship could be loaded with high end movies.

My kids listen to books they are not quite ready to read/or just feeling like coloring and listening on librivox or on Youtube.

Whoa... I had never heard of librivox. Thanks for that!

Permits are usually required for anything that costs over $2500 I believe.

This sounds very fun together with a character dining experience

Seems onerous to me, but what do I know?!

ETA: But selfishly, I like it -- we get hints like this.

Do we ever see permits for the stuff that gets built in California? I don't recall seeing any.

Yes they are just not followed much by the sites who cover WDW. MiceChat for example will find permits pretty often for CA.

"Experienced Altered Mental Status on Forbidden Journey" ???

That's one effective ride.

I'll be bewildered and amused by this all day. So, in a way, I guess my "Mental Status" has also been altered...

I'm pretty sure they can raise prices without a permit.

Unless you live in a perpetual state of bewilderment and amusement........

I don't get the reason for not having a trailer out - unless they are really worried about how bad it is...and in that case - why are they sticking with the prime May 25th release date? I dug up an article that said the trailer is delayed because they've scheduled some pick-up shots for it, but if that's true it's almost more disturbing. Especially the way Disney likes to promotionally blitz their movies. (Think of the amount of times you've seen that "Wrinkle In Time" trailer.)

I get the most excitement for Black Panther - the trailers have looked amazing. Ryan Coogler is another really interesting choice for director. We are heading for Disney the week it releases, so I don't think we will see it right away - can't bring myself to waste time at Disney sitting in a movie theater, but I definitely want to see it.

And of course Incredibles - though still surprised there is so little out about that one.

If the reports of the leads not being to act are true, I'm thinking when they do finally release trailers, the trailers will keep young Han in the shadows...playing it off like they are trying to hype the reveal when in actuality they just don't want general audiences to know what they are in for...
