Check Out The Cheerful And Festive Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears

Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears

It may be July, but the magic of the holiday season is already starting to shimmer from the Disney Parks. New Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears will be arriving this holiday season at the Disney Parks, and we’re so excited! The ears will join the rest of the gorgeous Christmas releases starting this October and November.

Check Out The Cheerful And Festive Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears

So far we know of three holiday inspired Minnie ears, and a Mickey ears hat! The first ears were available for preview at the Christmas in July event last week. These beautiful ears are a soft red velvet, with a puffy green sequin bow. Each ear has a silvery embroidered snowflake, that is accented in rhinestones. These ears have a very traditional and classic feel to them, that matches the new Nordic Christmas theme perfectly!

There will also be an updated version of the ugly sweater Christmas ears! These will have the same fuzzy pom pom style ears and sweater bow as last year, but with a new color theme of black and white, that will have hints of red. A new twist on the plaid Minnie Ears will also debut this year as well. These will feature black sequin ears, with a rustic plaid bow.

Check Out The Cheerful And Festive Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears

The Mickey ear hat is delightfully cheerful this year! This red hat says “Light up the Holiday”, and has antlers in addition to the Mickey ears! The antlers have Disney inspired ornaments hanging from them, including attractions themed ones like the Haunted Mansion!

Prices have not been released for the Holiday Minnie Mouse Ears yet, but we can look forward to seeing them this October and November, just in time to dress up for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party!

Happy Christmas in July Disney Addicts!

Geyser Point Stopped Serving Breakfast Earlier This Month

Geyser Point stopped serving breakfast

Earlier this month Geyser Point stopped serving breakfast.  This Quick Service Restaurant at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is now serving only lunch, dinner and a lounge menu.

While this was a nice option to grab breakfast before a day of theme park adventures, guest can still hit up Roaring Fork for a Quick Service breakfast or Whispering Canyon Cafe for a Table Service breakfast! And Geyser Point now opens at 11am for lunch!

And this is a great place to grab a quick lunch or dinner if you’re adventures at The Walt Disney World Resort happen to take you to Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.  The Bison Cheeseburger with Bacon, Sweet Onion Straws, Marionberry Barbecue Sauce Garlic Aïoli or the Lump Crab Cake Sandwich with House-made Canadian Bacon, Spicy Cabbage-Carrot Slaw and Miso Tartar Sauce served on an Artisan Roll with Multigrain Salad or Waffle Fries are more unique Quick Service options and can break up the standard burger and fries choices at other places.

And if you’re looking for something lighter, they have several salad options that are delicious!

If you’re looking for an adult beverage, they’ve also got an amazing Lounge menu to choose from!

So while Geyser Point is no longer serving breakfast, it’s still a great spot for lunch or dinner – or a cocktail at the end of the day!

A Petition is Circulating the Internet for James Gunn to be Rehired

petition

Since James Gunn has been dropped from director of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 by Disney and Marvel, fans have started an online petition to have him rehired. So far, there are over 220,000 signatures and that number continues to grow. Before deleting his account, Gunn tweeted, “Many people who have followed my career know when I started, I viewed myself as a provocateur, making movies and telling jokes that were outrageous and taboo. As I have discussed publicly many times, as I’ve developed as a person, so has my work and my humor.”

“The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him,” said Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn in a statement.

Gunn was fired as the director of “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3”  3 days ago in result of tweets he made back in 2008 and 2009. The Daily Caller reported that James Gunn tweeted about controversial and offensive topics. The filmmaker has since deleted his Twitter account.

Fellow director Joe Carnahan shared the petition on his Twitter account. As of Saturday afternoon, it had collected more than 5,000 signatures. By early evening, it had risen to nearly 16,000. By Sunday morning, the total had climbed to 51,000.

https://twitter.com/carnojoe/status/1020730445233774592

Other stars from Guardians of the Galaxy, including Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, and Zoe Saldana have tweeted about Gunn.

Gunn has been working on the script for “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3”, and the movie was expected to begin shooting in Atlanta in the fall for an expected 2020 release date, though Marvel Studios had never officially announced the date.

Check back with Chip and Co for any updates on this situation.

“Disney’s Broadway Hits at Royal Albert Hall!” Brings Home Two Emmy Awards

Disney’s Broadway Hits

The 2018 Daytime Emmy Awards gave a big spotlight to the collaboration between Disney Parks Live Entertainment and Disney Theatrical Productions as “Disney’s Broadway Hits at Royal Albert Hall!” brought home 2 Emmy awards. Director Jay Hatcher, part of the Broadcast Production team at Walt Disney World Resort was presented with the award for Outstanding Directing – Special Class. “Disney’s Broadway Hits” was also honored with an Emmy in the category of Outstanding Sound Mixing.

"Disney’s Broadway Hits at Royal Albert Hall!" Brings Home Two Emmy Awards

Jay spoke about the long-standing collaboration between himself and Jeff Lee. “Jeff and I had worked together previously on several concert events, bringing the magic of Disney on Broadway to our parks and our ships,” said Jay. “For us to have the opportunity to bring that into people’s homes, we took that responsibility very seriously. And to be recognized at the highest level for our efforts is a complete dream come true.”

Back in October 2016 “Disney’s Broadway Hits” was performed live at London’s Royal Albert Hall and broadcast on the Sky Arts Television Network, as well as BBC Radio 2’s Friday Night is Music Night. It celebrated two decades of stage musicals from Disney Theatrical Productions and included highlights from Broadway musicals “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Lion King,” “Aida,” “Tarzan,” “Mary Poppins,” “The Little Mermaid,” “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” “Aladdin,” “Frozen” and “Newsies,” with performances by a number of Disney stage veterans.

Alan Menken (a Tony Award and eight-time Academy Award winner), accompanied by the 74-piece BBC Concert Orchestra, also made a special appearance during the performance. In presenting the show for television, Jay and the team leveraged 20 unique camera angles to create a sense of actually being there for the performance.

“Disney’s Broadway Hits at Royal Albert Hall” is currently available on the BroadwayHD streaming service, and you can catch another great collaboration between Disney Theatrical Productions and Disney Parks Live Entertainment when the Disney on Broadway Concert Series returns to the Epcot International Festival of the Arts in January 2019.
