The Rainbow Disney Spirit Jerseys For Kids Are Magical

Rainbow Disney Spirit Jerseys

Sometimes I wish I was a kid again, okay maybe more than sometimes. The new Rainbow Disney Spirit Jerseys available at Walt Disney World and Disneyland are so magically delightful! These are only available in kid sizes, but I really hope they make them for adults too!

A post shared by KT? (@ktthedisneybear) on

These fun Spirit Jerseys are tie dyed with a swirl of cotton candy colors, and feature “Walt Disney World” or “Disneyland” in puffed rainbow glitter, with a matching Disney Castle on the front. This jersey is sure to be a hit with any little Disney Princess, even though grown up Spirit Jersey fans might be a bit jealous.

Would you like to see these Rainbow Disney Spirit Jerseys in adult sizes too?

Incredibles 2 Movie Review

Incredibles 2 Movie Review

The Incredibles are back! It’s been 14 years since we’ve seen the Incredibles in action, but the plot picks up right where we left them. The Underminer is still on the verge of causing total city destruction, and in the aftermath of their epic battle, the family is left to pick up the pieces.

During the battle, Frozone vanishes, only to be approached by Winston Deavor (Bob Odenkirk), a tech mogul who wants to help bring the supers back from the shadows. Winston and his sister Evelyn (Catherine Keener) want to get superheroes back on the right side of the law and public perception, masterminds a campaign that involves having the heroes wear body cameras so people can see what they are doing firsthand.

When given a chance to change the law and save the fate of all supers, they met a new threat that risks to destroy their reputation forever.

Incredibles 2 Movie Review

Elastagirl is chosen as the face of the campaign, sidelining both Frozone and Mr. Incredible. This creates a role reversal that is the heart of the entire feature, giving us the chance to really see Helen in action.

All the while, Bob will have to find his own place in all the insanity, trying his best to be supportive and put his own needs aside for the love of his family.

Throughout the entire film, the character building has super strength with each character’s super power echos their personality and growth within the family unit. For instance, Elastigirl, the over-extended mother, is extraordinarily flexible, able to multitask with ease. Violet (Sarah Vowell) is a shy teen whose power is the ability to disappear and build force fields. Let’s also not forget about Dash (Huck Milner) who thinks he can help in any way he can. And of course Baby Jack Jack with his newfound superpowers, which Bob is trying to cope with. It’s a clever way to mix the genres, family drama and superhero action.

Incredibles 2 Movie Review

The emphasis on family is still there, woven into the script. The Parrs may be “supers” but they are a family with all the problems that go along with that.

“Incredibles 2” is a fantastic looking movie. Advances in CGI since the first film allow for bigger and wilder, more cinematic action scenes and director Brad Bird mixes-and-matches a variety of influences from silent movies on up to modern day blockbusters to engage us all. There’s plenty of action of the sort we’re used to in recent live action superhero films. We’re used to it now and Bird stages in some inventive work to make it less of an overload.

As a sequel “Incredibles 2” feels as fresh as it did the first time around and should please fans with the superpower of patience that they have waited fourteen years for the continuation of the story. “Incredibles 2” is a welcome return.

“Incredibles 2” is rated PG for action sequences and some brief mild language; running time: 1 hour 58 mins.

Incredibles 2 Breaking Box Office Records On Preview Night

Incredibles 2 Breaking Box Office Records On Preview Night

As predicted, The Incredibles 2 is already breaking records at the box office. Last night, thousands of dedicated Pixar fans flocked to the theaters to be among the first checking out the new hit. When Finding Dory premiered in 2016, the preview night brought in $9.2 million. The Incredibles 2 has more than doubled that amount, coming in at $18.5 million. That was just night one!

14 years after the original, the Incredibles 2 is expected to bring in between $125 million and $140 million in ticket sales. This will also compete with Finding Dory, which came in at $135 million for it’s opening weekend. The live action version of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast had a $116 million opening weekend for it’s debut last year.

Be sure to also check out Chip and Co’s fun ‘How To Draw Jack Jack‘ article in honor of The Incredibles 2 movie. Some of the writers, including yours truly, took on the challenge and drew Jack Jack. Vote for your favorite drawing on our Facebook page!

Annual Passholder Reserved Seating For Guardians of the Galaxy – Awesome Mix Live!

Check out the backstory of how this out-of-this-world musical event came to be:

After saving their world from certain destruction, Peter Quill—also known as Star-Lord—brokered a deal with Nova Prime and the Xandarian government to bring an outreach program to his home planet. The purpose? To share Xandar’s rich heritage and culture with Earth’s people.

As luck would have it, Peter informed Xandar’s leaders that there’s already a place on Earth with a similar mission… a theme park called Epcot, where all of Earth’s cultures are celebrated. So, as part of their first outreach, Xandar sent some of their most talented musicians to perform the human audiences’ best-loved hits.

Don’t forget! A brand new Fall Annual Passholder discount was just released for Walt Disney World. You can check it out HERE!
