Guardians Roller Coaster Construction

To say Disney fans are “excited” for the Guardians of the Galaxy Coaster coming to Epcot would be a massive understatement. Aside from the “awesomeness” of the movies, this new coaster is designed to be one of the longest indoor rollercoasters in the world. So it’s easy to see what has fans so revved up.

The GOTG coaster is set to open in 2021, just in time for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebration. While details have not yet been released, we do know the coaster will feature a unique storyline and innovative ride system. So prepare to be “wowed”.

Say your final “goodbyes” to the old Universe of Energy and make way for some “out of this world” Marvel characters as they make their ride-debut at Epcot.

Minnie Van Drivers Are Not In Favor of a Union

Drivers of the Walt Disney World Resort Minnie Vans, powered by Lyft, has been contacted by a union against their wishes. The Teamsters union reached out to half-dozen of the drivers in hopes of bringing them onboard with a union. But the Cast Members who drive the Minnie Vans say they are happy with their working conditions at Disney, and they fear if they join a union they would be forced to lose their seniority and income, plus they would possibly be forced into a pension plan. They reached out to the National Labor Relations Board with their concerns.

The Teamsters union also represents the Disney World bus drivers and costumed characters at Disney World. Disney recently appealed the decision until a final ruling is made.

“I have never asked Teamsters or any other union to represent me in my job at Disney, nor has Teamsters asked me my views on whether I wanted to be subject to representation,” wrote “Minnie Van” driver Mary Hogan, who has worked as a cashier and reservation-taker at Disney World.

The Teamsters local is part of a coalition of unions representing 38,000 workers at Disney World. Earlier this month, members of the coalition approved a new contract that increases the starting minimum wage to $15 an hour over the next three years.

“Ralph Breaks the Internet” Trailer

Check out a brand-new “Ralph Breaks the Internet” trailer, introducing new characters, including the fierce and fun crew of racers from online racing game Slaughter Race. Ali Wong lends her voice to Felony, Timothy Simons voices Butcher Boy, Glozell Green brings Little Debbie to life and Hamish Blake provides the voice of Pyro.

Also new to the roster of characters is Double Dan, the proprietor of the dark web’s apothecary. Voiced by Alfred Molina, Double Dan is massive, slimy and decidedly creepy with a second head called Little Dan tucked into his neck folds. “Ralph Breaks the Internet” opens in U.S. theaters on Nov. 21, 2018.

You can watch the brand-new “Ralph Breaks the Internet” Trailer here:

In “Ralph Breaks the Internet,” video-game bad guy Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) and best friend Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) leave the comforts of Litwak’s arcade in an attempt to save her game, Sugar Rush. Their quest takes them to the vast, uncharted world of the internet where they rely on the citizens of the internet—the Netizens—to help navigate their way. Lending a virtual hand are Yesss (voice of Taraji P. Henson), the head algorithm and the heart and soul of the trend-making site “BuzzzTube,” and Shank (voice of Gal Gadot), a tough-as-nails driver from a gritty online auto-racing game called Slaughter Race, a place Vanellope wholeheartedly embraces—so much so that Ralph worries he may lose the only friend he’s ever had.
