Walt Disney World is heading for a leadership change at one of the most consequential moments in Central Florida theme-park competition in decades. Jeff Vahle, President of Walt Disney World Resort, announced that he will retire this summer after 36 years with Disney,...
“The Rivers of America are filling back up. Could you possibly head to Magic Kingdom and check that out?” was the admonition I received from our team. I had to see this for myself. What’s happening at Disney’s Magic Kingdom right now is definitely magical, but not at all in the way most would think of.
Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel wasted no time turning the tragic assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk into a political weapon against President Trump.
Instead of using his ABC platform to reflect respectfully on this horrible event, Kimmel chose to attack President Trump..Again. This time over what he perceives as the president’s failure in calling for unity in the wake of tragedy. The problem? Kimmel has never been a voice for unity himself. In fact, his career has been built on stoking rage and mocking conservatives, making his lecture to Trump ring hollow.
In the light of the horrible murder of Charlie Kirk we’re all getting through our feelings about, it is perhaps instructive to note a “bigger picture” issue it brings to the forefront that applies not just to political stories but to EVERY story, event, commentary, or utterance from politicos, office holders, and punditry.
The Bubble People.
I get that they have their views and they are different than mine. I get that expressing their views is part of their job description, whether media or elected official (though maybe the actors and their ilk should just plain shut up and sing/dance/perform). But wow what a bubble they live in that they couldn’t wait a day, a few days, even a week or more to just plain know that shutting up is the best policy at a time of trauma.
Even as the lights of Hollywood begin to dim for Mark Hamill, the actor behind Luke Skywalker isn’t ready to fade quietly. Instead, he’s become one of the most candid and persistent voices in political commentary today. Whether or not he is effective at persuading...
Disney imagineers have announced that Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World is getting a “historic update.” The company unveiled the plan at Destination D23, promising a bold “new” look that Imagineers framed as a creative step forward. The reality? They’re simply bringing the castle back to its original 1971 color palette—soft grays, creams, and blues with subtle gold accents.
Rachel Zegler burst onto the scene with powerful performances in West Side Story (2021) and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (2023). Discovered by Steven Spielberg, she was a force to be reckoned with if even if both her first films flopped...
Warner Bros. has just etched its name into the record books in a way Disney never has. Over the weekend, The Conjuring: Last Rites stormed into theaters with an $83 million domestic debut, the third-largest opening ever for a horror film. That figure alone would be enough to grab headlines, but what makes it historic is the bigger picture: this marks Warner Bros.’ seventh consecutive film to open above $40 million.
The phrase “Sydney Sweeney ballet” should be trending right now because of a stylish new Jimmy Choo campaign, not because online activists have lost their minds again. Yet here we are. The actress slipped into a leotard and boots for an ad that playfully leaned into ballet imagery, and the outrage brigade has declared it “offensive” to actual dancers.
On September 1, 2025, at Heathrow Airport, comedian and sitcom creator Graham Linehan, known for Father Ted and The IT Crowd, was taken into custody by five armed police officers following his arrival from Arizona.
The arrest stemmed from three posts on X that authorities allege involved incitement of violence against individuals identifying as “trans.” Linehan was detained, questioned, and afterward hospitalized due to high blood pressure. As part of his bail, he’s been banned from posting on X. Linehan may have posted the commentary in the United States, indicating that the United Kingdom is willing to arrest individuals for online discourse once they arrive upon British territory.
The summer 2025 box office has wrapped, and the headlines will tell you that Disney came out on top. That’s technically true. But if we’re being honest, this “victory” says more about how dismal the competition was than about Disney’s strength. This was not a coronation. It was a race where everyone tripped over their shoelaces, and Disney just happened to hobble across the finish line first.
The Walt Disney Company appears to be admitting that August and September of 2025 are looking very uncrowded at Walt Disney World. And the solution the company offers for people wanting to see it even less crowded? Well... but VIP events, of course! Here's the...
James Gunn says he’s already done a 60-page outline for the next Superman movie. He’s scripting it now. The 2025 film hasn’t finished its run yet. Fans perked up. Hollywood rarely greenlights sequels this quickly; studios wait for ticket sales. Why the rush? And what does it say about Superman, the hero with the messiest sequel track record ever?
