Disney/Pixar In General

Kovu isn't his biological son. That's made explicit. Because then his romance with Kiara would be icky.

They made it a thing in The Lion King remake where Scar is bitter that Sarabi chose Mufasa over him and is constantly pressuring her to be around him.

Remake Scar is an incel.

If the movie weren't unrealistic on other parts, Scar's behavior would be outright natural. Rogue male lions are incels in real life 24/7 by nature

We finally have a summary for the Haunted Mansion Original Graphic Novel by IDW! [1]

Took them long enough. They first announced it in spring last year, with a set release date in September 2019.

Nice to see it's back. I thought it was dead ever since the artist began posting some lost art of it a few years ago.

silly you cant kill ghosts

. IDW’s constant Schedule Slip continues to drive me crazy.

Other than that, I actually think it looks adorable, and already seems to get why people like the Haunted Mansion more than either the movie or the Disney Kingdoms miniseries did.

As the coronavirus situation still goes on, senior Disney executives are taking pay cuts to save money.

While new CEO Bob Chapek is shaving his salary by 50%, his predecessor (and current executive chairman) Bob Iger has chosen to give up his whole salary for the entire year.

they can afford to basically

appreciate the gesture though.

Do what you can for others, but keep enough for you so you can still live sounds like a good lesson for this crisis.

They can afford it, but the gesture is admirable.

I would not watch with kids around.

Mmmm. These are nice.

It's an unpopular opinion, but I've never been a huge fan of Tituss Burgess' take on of Poor Unfortunate Souls. He tends to lose the song and/or the emotion that carries it. Ultimately it's like listening to someone recite rather than sing it, and imo it's not really the kind of number where that works: it's very much an in-character song. On the flipside, I've always loved that version of Gaston because they lean into the personality of the number.

Granted, I'm not a fan of the way Poor Unfortunate Souls has to be adapted onto the stage in general.

Speaking of the Disney Theme Parks, I started reading the Sequel Series to The Kingdom Keepers.

Any good so far?

I liked the first couple books, but they kinda got a bit overly dark and exposition heavy later in the series.

I only read the first chapter so far. ^_^;; But it's an interesting start. :)

Courtesy of TDR Explorer, here's a sneak peek of the attraction poster for the new Beauty and the Beast attraction at Tokyo Disneyland.

this is just a little thing, but there’s a bot that randomly generates small world style art, and I love it.

It’s even called, “Tiny Spires”!

Now that I think about it, has Tony Baxter or anyone who worked on Disneyland Paris ever explained why their it's a Small World is so different than any other version of the ride?

I know that the facade was inspired by other Mary concept art, but why is the art style so different on the inside?

So I've seen a lot of artists give Sunflower a redesign but this is probably one of the best looking ones I've seen,really nailed the eyes too

Be Prepared Reanimated collab.

God, I still can’t unhear the voice actor switch after Jeremy irons hurt his voice from the singing.
