"Your marketing team was so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should."

Oh well, my prediction of new CEO news this morning appears to be a bust (current word is later this week), but I'm still awake to cover the earnings call. Come hang out with me as I live blog. www.cinemablend.com/movies/live/...

Being a grown up tonight. It's been a while

Disneyland Officials said in a statement to Cinemablend: "We're aware of the situation, recognize the value and importance of resort-area transportation for guests, and are actively exploring next steps." www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/...

The first popcorn bucket to ever make you fear for your life.

NEW: The 25th Anniversary of Disney California Adventure begins February 6, Mickey and Minnie will get new outfits, and Humphrey the Bear will debut as a new character at Storyteller's Cafe during Donald’s Tales of Adventure dinner buffet.

The New York Times just reported that the Disney CEO decision will be announced within the next week. See everybody on Monday.

MERCY, SHELTER, SEND HELP *rips envelope* Name 3 January movies that are also the things you were screaming out in the theater while watching them

Bought a PS5 recently after not regularly playing video games for almost a decade. Considering starting a Twitch show: "Dirk Remembers How To Play Video Games"

We got Bing Crosby and Basil Rathbone in a Disney movie. Show your respect people.

90 seconds in, and [redacted] has already won me over.

I've started my morning on the "Sydney Sweeney's underwear" beat for the last two days. Some people would kill to have my job

My Christmas gift to my mom was visiting once a month to help her go through the far to much stuff that has accumulated over the decades. Some of it is familiar. I have NO IDEA where this came from, but I love it

I'm sure Gordan Ramsey is actually a really nice guy but I choose to believe that when somebody told him he had to do a photo op with Mickey he said some very un-Disney words.

Universal Kids Resort is looking amazing. My kids are going to flip out. youtu.be/T7UiIMMbFY0?...

I appreciate THE PITT for making a good "Pros From Dover" reference. youtu.be/LpH4Fblhang?...

Disneyland Handcrafted is another home run documentary from Leslie Iwerks, that highlights the hands that built Disneyland www.cinemablend.com/movies/disne...

Oscar noms, Masters of the Universe, and Pokemon at Universal all before I've had my coffee.

Based on the trailer, this isn't quite the way it works, and the pop culture connection appears to be more reference than plot point. I'll allow it.

A movie coming out in 2026 where your HEROES are cops and AI is a CHOICE.

I have heard... things. #MercyMovie

Wish is no PATF, so it should rightly lose this bracket, but I will remain steadfast in my belief that the movie is still "good, actually"

This shot in the Masters of the Universe teaser, with action figures in the background, seems to imply a guy from the "real" world discovers the cartoon he loved was real and takes on the mantle of He-Man. I'm all for this movie not being too "serious" but I've never loved that particular conceit.

I went through a phase watching old episodes streaming a couple years ago and discovered that many eps have text updates regarding anything that has happened with the cases since the show went off the air

I started watching DISNEYLAND HANDCRAFTED, hoping that one specific person wasn't left out of the story. I should have known Leslie Iwerks wouldn't let me down.

I wasn't a big Winnie the Pooh fan but my kids are so I've watched both theatrical films multiple times in the last few years and they are straight up bangers. That said, Strange World didn't deserve getting the Treasure Planet treatment by Disney. Neither did Treasure Planet for that matter.

AHEM

Sometimes it's the little things that make you feel like you might actually know what the hell you're doing in your chosen profession

New: Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift is coming (and Supercharged is closing) in 2027.

if someone punches your neighbor and you go to protect them, that does not make you a protester. that makes you someone who protects your neighbor.

Hey Disney, you know that thing Lucasfilm just did with its top executive? Do that, but for CEO. www.cinemablend.com/movies/disne...

My official job title is Senior Popcorn Bucket Correspondent

Kathleen Kennedy has earned her place in Hollywood history and will be remembered as one of the all time great film producers. I'm excited for the future of Star Wars. Even more excited that a certain class of YouTuber will have absolutely zero to talk about anymore.

The first three times I read this in my email, I thought Paramount had greenlit something called FEAR, and the press release was telling me who was not involved in it, and I was very confused.

Yes, Back to the Future was incredible during last year's Fan Fest Nights, but its replacement is making me inner movie nerd, freak the hell out. www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/...

Scooby X Universal appears to be replacing Back to the Future, as it will take place on the backlot, but guests will be walking sets where some of the original Universal Monster movies were shot, which sounds INCREDIBLE.

Tickets are now on Sale for Universal Studios Hollywood's Fan Fest Nights, which will see the new Scooby Doo X Universal Monsters, a new One Piece experience, the return of Dungeons & Dragons, and more

The Wooz was an awesome location. I went a couple times as a kid and I still remember the time my mom drove us out there only to discover it was closed.

When deciding how to vote on this one you only have to ask yourself one question: Does BAMBI have a duet between Danny Zuko and Hannah Montana?

The Walt Disney Company just announced its Q1 2026 Earnings Call will be on Monday Feb 2, 2026. It could be nothing, but Monday is an odd day for a Disney earnings call, it's not an odd day if you're planning an announcement that you know is going to make your stock price go nuts

I really liked what Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge was, but I'm EXCITED about what it's about to become. www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/...

This change is (at least for now) exclusive to Disneyland. It seems the plan is to have two slightly different versions of SWGE so fans can experience both.

NEW: Disneyland is making major changes to the Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge timeline. Starting April 29, Luke, Leia, Han, and Darth Vader will become regular visitors to Batuu. Changes are coming to Oga's Cantina and other locations to align the story with a new era

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'

I found the story of the former Disneyland Evil Queen to be interesting because it seems to imply the reason she was let go wasn't quite what everybody assumed www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/...

Unfortunately, I was part of the layoffs today at Meta, and will be seeking a new role. To my Twisted Pixel Games family: it was an honor to work alongside you for 3.5 years and ship Marvel's Deadpool VR. We made something really special together and no one can ever take that away. ❤️

Not gonna lie, I kinda want to see DJ RuPaul at @universalorl.bsky.social

My wife uses the AI summary of a Google search in a college class she teaches as evidence that AI search is stupid and spits out garbage.

Me: My computer isn't working right. IT: Try this Me: OK, I tried that but it didn't work IT: Try it again Me: ??????

So I just dropped a bunch of Christmas cash on a PS5. I could totally afford it, but spending that kind of money on anything always makes me feel slightly ill.
