Josh Gad confronts Daisy Ridley about Star Wars The Last Jedi

SW

In a funny video posted to his Facebook Page yesterday Josh Gad confronts Daisy Ridley about who the last Jedi is in Star Wars Episode VIII – The Last Jedi.

He tries bribing her with details about Frozen 2, but she won’t spill the beans.

I think Olaf might have ticked her off.

Is Disney scaling back Extra Evening Magic Hours at Hollywood Studios?

DHS

DHS

Hey there guys and gals it is I Anonymouse back with some Disney World Gossip!

It seems Disney is scaling back on Extra Evening Magic Hours at Hollywood Studios according to the Walt Disney World Calendar, leading many Disney Websites and Forums to speculate that they might be discontinued.

2017-01-26 14_08_10-Park Hours & Calendars _ Walt Disney World Resort

If you try to go on the Disney World website and look for Extra Evening Magic Hours at Hollywood Studios nothing shows up past February 24th, meanwhile the Early Morning Magic Hours are unaffected.

Does this mean no more late night Extra Magic Hours at Hollywood Studios? Or do you think Disney is working on a special paid after-hours ticketed event like they have done at the Magic Kingdom?

We already know the Disney is working on a special Star Wars ticketed event starting in April called Star Wars: Galactic Nights, is this lead up for the event? Or do you think Disney just needs longer hours to work on the Toy Story & Star Wars Land Expansions?

I guess we will find out…

Let us know what you think in the comment box below.

As always nothing is official till Disney says it is.

That is all the Disney gossip I have for now. For my past gossip articles be sure to check them out here. Got any good gossip/rumors please email me at anonymouse@chipandco.com or on my Facebook page

In anticipation of Disneyland Paris’ 25th Anniversary celebration, Disneyland Paris has officially debuted Mickey and Minnie’s special outfits for the occasion.

The 25th Anniversary Celebration at Disneyland Paris is set to begin March 26th, and there is much more in store for guests who plan to visit during the celebration!

Epcot’s Festival of the Arts Annual Passholder Merchandise

20170121_234147

One thing we love about special events at Disney World is the merchandise.  As Annual Passholders, many of us are excited about the Passholder Exclusive merchandise.  The 2017 Epcot International Festival of the Arts Annual Passholder merchandise consists of an inaugural year t-shirt.

20170121_234158

We love the color of this inaugural year short-sleeved t-shirt as it works really well for men and women alike.  The front of the Passholder t-shirt lists the event name and the inaugural year as well. The left sleeve features the word “PASSHOLDER” and a picture of Figment holding a paintbrush.  Figment has his own Festival of the Arts Brush with the Masters Hunt around the World Showcase during this event.

When looking for Festival merchandise we were surprised to learn that the Passholder t-shirt is, in fact, the only Passholder exclusive item.  We were hoping for a Festival of the Arts inaugural year pin and discovered that not only is there not a Passholder pin, there is no pin at all for the Festival.  This was a bit sad as it is the inaugural year and therefore not something that can be repeated.  Hopefully, the 2017 Epcot International Festival of the Arts will be a huge success and we will see a pin for this event in 2018.  For now, we are very pleased with the Annual Passholder exclusive t-shirt.

What do you think of the inaugural year Passholder t-shirt?

2017 Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival to Introduce New Outdoor Kitchens, Topiaries and More

12994484_951775482419_6053408456352131128_n

If you’ll be attending the Flower & Garden Festival this year from March 1st to May 29th, then you will be in for a treat! Disney has announced that there are some new experiences that guests will be able to enjoy at this year’s festival.

The most exciting is the introduction of 2 brand new topiaries: Belle and Figment. Belle will of course be on display in the France Pavilion with The Beast, and is described as coming to life with sculpted facial features and her yellow ball gown created with golden blooming Joseph’s Coat plants.  Another festival first will be a 6-foot-tall topiary of Figment, the feisty dragon mascot of the park’s Imagination! pavilion, perched atop a 5-foot-diameter ball fashioned from yellow Joseph’s Coat.

The Snow White, Anna, and Elsa topiaries will also return this year.

The main entrance topiary this year will be inspired by a vintage Walt Disney short film, and will spring to life with a floral-festooned maypole featuring Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Daisy and Pluto. Donald and Huey, Dewey, and Louie (along with Chip and Dale) will also return this year, located by Spaceship Earth.

The popular Garden Rocks concert series will expand to four days each week, with three concerts each Friday through Monday presenting pop musicians that span multiple genres over four decades. There will also be new Garden Rocks Dining Packages available on select days at a number of Epcot restaurants. 

There will also be 2 new outdoor kitchens, though details on the menu items were not announced yet, so we will let you know when Disney announces that.

Reimagined interactive play gardens will include a new take on the “Cars”-themed garden introducing a new character topiary from the June 2017 release of the Disney•Pixar sequel, “Cars 3.” 

Another important change this year is that for the first time, the event’s Festival Center will extend operating hours from Wednesday, March 1 through Sunday, March 5. Throughout the rest of the festival, the center will be open each Friday through Sunday with an entertaining mix of gardening seminars and DIY workshops. 

Guests will also be able to experience special Earth Day activities and the Butterfly Garden will make its return as well!

Her longtime rep, Mara Buxbaum, issued a statement “Today, beloved icon, Mary Tyler Moore, passed away at the age of 80 in the company of friends and her loving husband of over 33 years, Dr. S. Robert Levine. A groundbreaking actress, producer, and passionate advocate for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Mary will be remembered as a fearless visionary who turned the world on with her smile.”

Mary became famous after starring on the “The Dick Van Dyke Show” from 1961 to 1966. She then pioneered her way to 7 successful seasons on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” from 1970 to 1977, this despited skeptics who viewed her show as destined to fail.

In 1986 she was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame, starred in well over 10 films and wrote 2 memoirs. She married 3 times, once forming power couple status when she married TV exec Grant Tinker in 1962. Her only son, Richard, from her first marriage to Richard Meeker died from an accidental gunshot in 1980.
