This week on Make Mine Music we're taking a dive into the Grammy-nominated scores for Star Wars Outlaws Wild Card & A Pirate's Fortune makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/11/24/t...

This is one of my daughter's favorite manga, and I'm currently on volume 3. Imagine Square Enix meets Studio Ghibli. The art is gorgeous and the characters are so endearing. I love it so much.

Test Track is now Grammy-nominated! Find out more about the music and composer Zain Effendi in this week's blog post: #disney #waltdisneyworld makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/11/17/a...

Was lucky to hang out with one of my very best friends last month.

Fresh off the news that the Walt Disney Records release "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle" has been nominated for a Grammy Award, we take a look at composer Gordy Haab's work on the project makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/11/10/i...

Saturday morning conversation with the family: Which AEW stars would make up the best boy band...

A good day for Disney Music with the Grammy Nominations. Star Wars Outlaws, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and music for Test Track all received nods.

The last few Make Mine Music blog posts have been about Disney Parks and Disney movies. But as promised, the music articles aren't going away. In fact, our next post will touch on music AND video games. Not to give it all away, but...

The holidays are just around the corner. Do you have a Disney lover in your life? Check out the books "Main Street Gossip: The Inside Scoop On All Your Favorite Disney Characters" and "Dreaming in Digital: The World of Disney Video Games" both available through Amazon!

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

Nowhere close to complete and it needs a fair amount of refining, but I'm pretty happy with the way this little mousling warrior is coming along.

A little behind (about an hour into episode three), but my goodness, I'm loving Campaign 4 of Critical Role. We're just barely setting the scene, but the characters and setting are incredible, and the machinations are so intriguing. Really excited to see where this goes.

Disney is known for fairy tales. Ever wished you could step inside one of your favorites? Here are five of the best fairy tale experiences you can have at the Disney Parks. makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/11/03/5...

As a very modern individual, I spent a chunk of this evening playing Grim Fandango. Remastered.

So...can Tokyo Disneyland make Night Raven College?

Sitting down to watch the first episode of "Twisted Wonderland." We've been waiting for the anime to debut for ages!

We've been diving into horror films as we approach Halloween. On Monday we watched "Totally Killer" which is essentially "Back to the Future" given a horror make over. Loved it. It brings the 80s nostalgia, while calling out some of the problematic aspects of the decade. Plus, it's just pure fun.

Of course, there were games like Sonic, but I can't even begin to count the hours I spent playing Kid Chameleon back in the day. Did all those hours translate into beating the game? Absolutely not. But I still loved it.

Halloween is just around the corner. To get yourself in that spooky mood, check out these 10 classic Disney shorts! makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/10/27/1...

Listening to Tim Curry's book "Vagabond" and it's sort of amusing to know that Ridley Scott was originally looking at Richard O'Brien to play Darkness in the movie legend, but then pivoted to Tim Curry.

Researching this week's blog post by watching spooky Disney shorts.

Recording the Halloween episode of the Celebrations Magazine Podcast tonight!

Currently listening to the audiobook of Tim Curry's memoir "Vagabond." I think it's the best way to experience it, hearing him tell the stories in his own brilliant voice.

It's been a bit since I've shamelessly self-promoted my book so...check out my book! It's about Disney. And video games. More specifically, Disney video games. Available in digital and print. www.amazon.com/Dreaming-Dig...

If you see this, quote post with a vampire who isn't Dracula.

Halloween is almost here! To get you in the spooky (or maybe just a bit spoopy) mood, here are five Disney Channel Original Movies to watch #disney makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/10/20/5...

Here's something else I'd love to see in the Disney Parks: In Frontierland, in the Magic Kingdom, a dark ride through American tall tales filled with animatronics from Disney shorts like Paul Bunyan, Pecos Bill, Johnny Appleseed and John Henry.

I was thinking after our recent trip to WDW: I love the storytellers that are part of Epcot's Festival of the Holidays. But why not have cultural storytellers year round in the pavilions? That would be incredible!

When Brody King finally does the Macarena, it's going to be one of the loudest pops ever. #AEWCollision #AEWDynamite

Megan Bayne makes all the sense in the world as the next TBS Champion. #AEWDynamite

That Darby and Mox segment is one of the best I've seen in ages. This match is going to be brutal. #AEWDynamite

Loving the chaotic energy between Stat and Toni #AEWDynamite

👀 We heard Nintendo is bringing the Virtual Boy back to gamers. While we can't get you the new add-on, the story behind this unique platform is completely free! @jzagal.bsky.social & @benjedwards.com's "Seeing Red" is available #OpenAccess: mitpress.mit.edu/978026204506...

Fresh back from Walt Disney World and we've got a brand new blog post over at Make Mine Music. Don't sashay away from this one! makeminemusiccom.wordpress.com/2025/10/13/5...

Share a cartoon from the past that kids today probably never heard of

There was no blog post last Monday because we were out of town BUT there will be a new post tomorrow! This one was a blast to write.

We are all the way to Arkansas now, but whoever came up with driving in Atlanta belongs in...

Man, if you aren't from the south, stepping into a Buc-ee's for the first time must be like stepping onto an alien planet in a sci-fi movie...

Starlight was such a stunning parade!

Typhoon Lagoon was a totally new experience and we absolutely loved it!

A profound inspiration whose work genuinely made the world a better place. Thank you for everything, Dr. Goodall. www.nbcnews.com/news/obituar...

I don't know if you've noticed, but Aidan's avatar is delightfully pixelated.

For no good reason that I can think of, I'm musing about defunct attractions at the Disney Parks: Kitchen Kabaret. Flying Saucers. The Timekeeper. Cranium Command. That sort of thing. Do you have a favorite Disney attraction that has been closed?

There's a brand new issue of Celebrations Magazine available now! I'm lucky enough to have two articles featured in this issue. Check it out!!!

Took a trip to Spirit Halloween...

I started reading Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction recently. I'm sorta fascinated by the fact that apocalyptic happenings are taking place in the story, but after the initial panic everyone sorta settles into their normal mundane lives again. It's a sci-fi setting, but still believable.

This is awesome. It's a bit far from me, so it'd be even better if you could also take a virtual tour of the exhibit.
