Couple of songs from 'Wish' dropped and I have thoughts (and an overuse of italics and ellipses):
I love 'This Wish!!!!' Everything about it is just so...Disney!!! From that classic 'I want' song feel to the instrumentals to the vocals to the way it thrums with those rolling drumbeats as it mounts and builds to its sweeping climax...Stunning. Epic. Grand. Majestic. Everything I want out of a centerpiece song in a Disney animated musical. It is clear they're building their Oscar 'Best Song' campaign around this one, and it is worthy!
'This is the Thanks I get?!'....uh...I kinda...don't love it. I mean, it's a well-constructed song and all, and I know they're going for the 'seems like a good guy and maybe he was once but he's going down a dark dark spiral and definitely isn't one anymore' thing with him, but...I dunno...I'm just not feeling it (or maybe I'm not feeling Chris Pine's performance?). I'm sure it suits the character (or at least the facade he puts on for the kingdom) and maybe it's better in context, but I guess I'm just not into the 'super-bouncy-villain-song' thing. Simply put, it's no 'Poor Unfortunate Souls' or 'Mother Knows Best Reprise.'
(still pulling for him to be thrown off a cliff, though 😁)

I don’t know if it’s because I’m older or if it’s something about how they built this ship or what but man I cannot stop feeling the rocking as we move. I’ve got my sea legs fine but there’s always the subtle movement around my head that’s the motion of sailing. I’m not a huge fan

The Best Disney Cruise Line Onboard Gifts We've Purchased!
Today we're talking about some of the onboard gifts we purchased ahead of a cruise. What was great and what we still use at home. For fun, we added one gift that is a total splurge!
Did you know that you can purchase gifts for your stateroom ahead of your cruise? Disney Cruise Line has an entire department of onboard gifts that you can purchase ahead of time, most of which will be waiting for you in your cruise stateroom when you arrive. (except alcohol) You can purchase gift packages. You can purchase desserts. There are a variety of beer and wine packages, however those…

Variety Interviews Ayo Davis, Meredith Roberts And Emily Hart On Disney Television Animation's 40th Anniversary And What To Expect On From The Past, Present And Future
40 years ago, Disney TVA was founded on the heels of challenging outcomes with features “The Fox and the Hound” and “The Black Cauldron.”
Initially, Disney TVA was restricted from using established Disney legacy characters, but nevertheless had huge successes with new shows like “The Wuzzles” and “Adventures of the Gummi Bears,” both of which became popular in syndication. As time went on, DTVA was able to use its limited rights to create shows like “DuckTales” and “TaleSpin,” which featured Disney characters. Today, the slate has evolved to include shows that travel across Disney’s streaming, linear and digital platforms, including Disney+, Disney Channel, Disney Junior and the Disney Parks
Over the 40 years of the studio has collaborated with Walt Disney Imagineering to bring beloved Disney Afternoon characters to the parks as well Mickey And Minnie's Runaway Railway and AquaMouse for the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure cruises from the Disney Cruise & Ships Line as well collaborating with Disney Yellow Two Shoes Team to redesing some heritage characters for the WDW Passholder Magnets.
Disney TVA characters also have gone to the realm of live action. In 2019 Disney Channel brought Kim Possible to the live action world as a Disney Channel Original Movie in 2019. In Spring 2022, Walt Disney Studios brought Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers to a new generation of fans trought a meta-driven live action/animated hybrid film which won an Primetime Emmy Award for Best Feature Film.
In April 2024, it was announced that Kiara from The Lion King II: Simba's Pride created at Disney TVA will make her live action debut on the motion capture/computer animated film "Mufasa The Lion King" with the character being voiced by Blue Ivy Carter. In Fall 2023, it was announced that Blumhouse Television and Atomic Monster where developing a live action reboot of Gargoyles for Disney+.
The future of the studio looks bright as the studio is slated to debut it's 100th show overall "StuGo" in 2025, as well new interations of beloved classics like The Proud Family, Phineas And Ferb, Sofia The First and Darkwing Duck trought revivals,reboots and spin-offs in the coming years with early talks of new interations of TaleSpin, Kim Possible and Recess since Early 2023.
“We have a wildly diverse development slate because we don’t have a house style,” says Meredith Roberts, executive vice president, television animation, Disney Branded Television and CEO of Disney Television Animation “Our styles are creator-driven, so that allows for real support of the artist or creator to fulfill his or her vision. Anything is possible, whether it's CGI. (“Monsters at Work”), hand-drawn 2D (“Big City Greens”,"Primos","Hailey's On It!"), rig-based 2D (“Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur”,"Kiff") and stop-motion (“Mickey Saves Christmas”,"Rhona Who Lives By The River".). Roberts continues, “We really try and solve all the problems and develop it. We look at the scripts and the story arcs. Every project has to have a strategy behind it that will complement the slate and separate it from other things. Each project has a distinct swim lane to attract an audience. And we’ve learned to meet the kids where they are, in terms of streaming and YouTube.”
Co-viewing, the viewership that happens when adults sit down to watch a DTVA show with the kids in their lives, is part of the studio’s secret sauce and long-term strategy. Many of the shows are written with jokes and plot points for both audiences so both groups will return.
“We double down on the kids and family space,” says Roberts. “We’re not just dipping a toe in the water. We’re diving in. I think we’ve seen a lot of churn with the competition, who just don’t have the patience to develop and are for this audience, which is a very specialized kid audience and co-view audience.” ("The Witchverse", "Rhona Who Lives By The River","InterCats","Fantasy Sports") Roberts reflects: “I think one of the things I’m most proud of is how stable Disney TVA has been for the last 40 years despite a lot of outside churn of the animation industry. Many of our crews feel that Disney is their forever home. I think the excitement they have to illustrate and create with this brand has been terrific because it’s harder to be funny and clean. And nowhere are we tearing down people to get that laugh. I think that’s the beauty of a Disney animated show.”
DTVA also sought to meet kids where they are by making their audience — which is made up of the most diverse generation in history — feel seen, with series such as “Elena of Avalor,” which featured Disney’s first Latina princess, and “The Proud Family,” franchise focused on the life of a teenage Black girl.
“We do have an amazing insights team that are constantly in the field, giving us general information about how kids are watching content, what they’re into,” Emily Hart (VP of Current and Development - Disney Junior) says. “Some of those things are evolving, as we know the ways kids consume content is changing. But there are some universal truths about kids, and it’s great to have that reinforced. Kids still like a lot of the same things that we like. So, there’s a combination that we’re always tracking with every new idea, and we do pilot testing. We get to sit down and talk about the content, and we invite our creators in so they can see the kids talking about it because they’re the audience and they’re the truest test of if the story is going to work.”
Ayo Davis, president of the Disney Branded Television and VP of Current and Development at Disney Television Animation says the division is a “driving force” for memorable kids and family entertainment.
“All of us at Disney Branded Television are so proud of the studio’s 40-year legacy as it continues to entertain future generations with shows like ‘Kiff,’ ‘Big City Greens’ and ‘Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 2.0" --- Davis says.
Those creators who come to DTVA often stay for a long time, partnering with the studio on a variety of different projects or expanding on a hit and reimagining it for the next generation of viewers. “The Proud Family” was a standout in 2001 on Disney Channel. Creator and executive producer Bruce W. Smith is now working on the Emmy-winning “The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder,” which is based on the original series. The show follows Penny Proud as she navigates family life and her own childhood.

“Being at Disney TVA has allowed me to realize all my artistic dreams,” says Bruce W. Smith. “As a kid, you always have hopes, thoughts, dreams, ideas and characters that can help lay out those ideas in your head. Disney has allowed me to really tap into my creative instinct, at the end of the day, you have to learn how to trust yourself. Meredith Roberts has been a true shepherd for me in all of this, allowing me to stretch my wings. Because of her belief in me and my ideas, she’s really allowed me to blossom as an artist. All that happened at DTVA.”

“They really seem to be a place that welcomes your ideas,” Dan Povenmire says of Disney TVA. “They want to find people with real strong ideas of the stories they want to tell, and then they let them tell those stories for the most part. They seem to put storytelling and characters over anything. With [‘Phineas and Ferb’], we would write jokes for the kids and the adults in the room because we knew the adults would be there too. We were just careful not to do any double entendres.”

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2022
Written by @secretsofthestorymakers
In 2022, some further expansion of the Frozen franchise came through other Disney properties.
Frozen characters were included in the story of Disney Mirrorverse, an alternate universe/crossover role playing game featuring many Disney and Pixar characters. In July, the Disney Wish cruise ship sailed for the first time, featuring Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure. This immersive character dining experience brings guests into the world of Frozen with a royal dinner to celebrate Anna and Kristoff’s engagement.
In books, 2022 brought new editions of both La Bibliothéque Rose series and the Histoires d’Arendelle books, two series of fairly short stories written in French. In July, Polar Nights - a chapter book set after Frozen II - was released. It explores the story of one particular myth in Arendelle and what happens when the past comes back to haunt Elsa and Anna.
As it had been several years since the release of Frozen II, and as the 10th anniversary of the original film was approaching, fans wondered what could be next for the franchise.
Stay Tuned for More
👆🏻 Click above if you want to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Frozen. The due date is April 12, 2024.
We look forward to seeing your memories ❄️

Dining on the Disney Wish | Sneak Peek from Making the Disney Wish streaming on Disney+ February 17, 2023
Dining meets storytelling aboard the Disney Wish. Long before the Disney Wish set sail, Imagineers, food and beverage managers, and chefs from around the world were designing restaurants, planning and testing out menus, and concocting one-of-a-kind drinks. What does it take to feed 4,000 guests and 1,500 crew on a floating castle on the sea hundreds of miles from shore? Making the Wish: Disney’s…

So, Day Two of New York! Well, actually, I crashed when I got back to the hotel again (is this that Jet Lag stuff?), so I'm writing this on Day Three, but here's the recap:
So my Aunt accidentally booked the Statue of Liberty ferry for 9am instead of 2pm. At 7.30am. We ended up having to rush to Battery Park to catch the boat, using the Subway. No pics of that, too many people's faces everywhere.
What I did get a picture of was this:
Tumblr media
Apparently, a Church.
Anyway, while we were waiting for the ferry I saw more helicopters than I usually do in a year (my helicopter diet is mostly made of Search and Rescue ones), and the Disney Cruise Ship Treasure passed and played "When You Wish Upon A Star" on the horn.
But yes, Lady Liberty:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Managed to finally have some breakfast, of mediocre lukewarm pizza.
What can I say? It's a fun and interesting experience to see this literal icon of America up close. It's a little bittersweet, given that America has never fully lived up to her promises, both the original idea of her creator (Liberty and Justice for all) and the reinterpretation by Emma Lazarus ("Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free"). But she was always supposed to be ideal to strive towards.
Also I got to see the bolts that hold her to the pedestal!
Tumblr media
It was like 30 cents and another security screening to go up the Pedestal, would recommend. Great view of Manhattan from there:
Tumblr media
Also, the original (though heavily modified over the years) torch is found in the nearby museum.
Tumblr media
After that, we went to Ellis Island, because it's on the same ticket. Actually, that ticket's great value for money, €25.30 for Liberty and Ellis.
I didn't take many pictures, but it was a very interesting experience. Irish emmigration to America has never really stopped, but I am of a generation where it slowed to it's lowest levels. If I had been born in any other generation, it's likely I would have had to leave myself for America.
Case in point, my Aunt who's with me on this trip did emigrate to America. She spent a decade in California, before being able to come back to Ireland in the 90s.
So after we got back on dry land, we made our way through the Subway to the Oculus, the big fancy Mall:
Tumblr media
Grabbed some lunch in a nearby deli my Aunt likes.
And then we went into the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
...so. I have a complaint. And it feels shitty to be complaining about a memorial, but I swear it's a fairly serious complaint.
We were ushered into a theatre, where we were told we were going to be shown a 26 minute movie before experiencing the exhibit. We assumed it was going to be a film about the events of 9/11.
We were wrong.
It was a very detailed film about hunting and killing Bin Laden. Like, animated diagrams of troop movements during the raid.
It felt celebratory and congratulatory and the CIA director was grinning and saying people were chanting "CIA! CIA!" in public when the news broke.
It was a propaganda film and incredibly clashing with the tone of a fucking memorial.
The rest of the museum is well-done and appropriately sombre except for the section where it goes back to the topic of fighting Al-Qaeda with ever mentioning the millions of Afghanis and Iraqis that died-
Sorry. Yeah. Mostly well done except for those two sections and the random brick from the Abbotabad compound. Just sitting across from the exhibit on the long-term effects of the dust clouds.
Yeah, that kinda threw me and my Aunt. That felt inappropriate and not in keeping with the intended tone.
And after that we went back to the hotel.
Yeah. Bit of an awkward one.

i know i’m a marvel account, but i also post little things from other fandoms. as it is frozen’s 10th anniversary, ten frozen authors wrote “all is found”, a book filled with ten short stories that take place within different times in the frozen franchise.
so due to my hyperfixation of anything frozen, and my desperate need for more frozen content, i will be
over analyzing “all is found” and breaking down each story for details and references !! (part one!)
spoilers ahead ⚠️
Anna and the Silver Skates
Author: Diana Peterfreund
this first story takes place during anna and elsa’s childhood, probably less than five years after anna and elsa were separated.
elsa secretly leaves anna a pair of their mothers old ice skates as anna couldn’t find her own (and spent hours trying to skate with cloths tied to her boots).
this inspires anna to secretly leave the castle to enter a skating competition in disguise, as she hasn’t been to the village since before the gates were closed.
anna needs a disguise, but cannot find anything, so elsa (without anna knowing again) sneaks her some of her mother’s old clothes.
anna successfully sneaks out to the village and joins the competition. elsa, being so worried about anna sneaking out, causes problems with her magic, so iduna invites her to watch the festival with her from the royal carriage.
elsa agrees, hoping to distract iduna from seeing anna. but while they’re watching the race, anna’s disguise comes off and iduna catches her. instead of being mad, iduna lets anna have fun.
iduna later explains she feels bad that anna had to sneak out because she is so desperate for interaction, and promises to talk to agnarr about stopping the isolation.
we know from the movies that this never happens though, and i wonder what would have happened if this plan had actually went through.
other facts: this story claims that elsa never spoke back to anna when they were separated (anna would speak to elsa’s door, but elsa would never respond).
there’s no other big references i caught other than some quick nods to iduna and agnarr’s childhoods together in Dangerous Secrets.
my rating: 4/5 ⭐️
(this is going to be the longest story explanation, i didn’t know how else to write it)
Engaging Anna and Kristoff
Author: Jen Calonita (author of Conceal Don’t Feel & Polar Nights)
this story takes place after frozen 2, and tells the story of elsa trying to plan an engagement party for anna and kristoff.
she hires oaken, who tries to make the party fit for a queen, along with asking the trolls to help, who try to make it a troll engagement party.
so they go back and forth trying to outdo each others decorations and elsa finally convinces them to do a bit of both to represent both anna and kristoff.
meanwhile, anna and kristoff are trying to keep each other busy both thinking their distracting each other for different surprises.
they’re so many little details from other frozen novels and frozen properties!!
oaken’s party service is a reference from the arendelle dinner experience aboard the disney wish cruise ship
my favorite reference came from a list of bakeries anna and kristoff had to pick up cookies from as a distraction. blodget’s and the waffle brothers have both been mentioned in other frozen books, the olsen’s could be a reference from olaf’s frozen adventure, and tomally’s is a reference to the family that raised anna in Conceal Don’t Feel.
my rating: 3.5/5 ⭐️

Automatic Gratiuities on Disney Cruise Line Explained Easily!
What is automatic gratuities on Disney Cruise Line? We explain it simply and easily! (and even make a Jungle Cruise reference!)

I hate having to tag the new movie ‘Disney Wish’. Just ‘Wish’ is too vague, but ‘Disney Wish’ sounds like I’m posting about the cruise ship.
