Do any of you all remember the Peter Pandom ; the massive group of Tumblr fangirls who were obsessed with the actors who played Peter Pan at Disneyland? It was one of those phenomena that, upon reflection, feels like something I hallucinated when I had the swine flu. Do y'all remember the swine flu? Those were the days. Anyways, the fandom relied on teens who would go to Disneyland for the expressed purpose of telling Peter Pan all about their mental health issues. These fangirls would film the…

When one Bob closes, another Bob opens. Last week, The Walt Disney Company revealed that Bob Iger is returning to Disney as their CEO, with Bob Chapek exiting the position after only two years. Bob Iger previously served as CEO from 2005-2020, with Chapek only serving for two years as CEO. Disney fans seem to be quite optimistic about Iger's return, especially regarding the Disney theme parks. The implementation of Disney Genie and costly fast passes have not fared well with fans, many of whom…

Let's be honest: Disney theme parks are literally the best theme parks in the world, and it's not even close. I know that Disney fans have dealt with many issues since the parks reopened. The mouse is really trying to get every dollar you've got and then some. They're even making park guests pay for Fast Passes now! What is this? Six Flags? While some regular park visitors might disagree, as somebody who loves theme parks generally but hasn't been to Disney in 5 years, no other parks compare. D…

When I was a little kid, I was vehemently anti-princess . I don't remember my exact thought process from when I was three years old, but I know I did not like them. There is an iconic childhood photo of me from "Princess Day" at preschool, wearing a collegiate sweatshirt and looking downright angry. I was not having it. Although the princess and I community started off on the wrong foot, I started to like princess movies more as I got older. By the time I was ten, I was a proud Cinderella stan,…

I've been a big Disney fangirl since I was a kid, and at this point, I'm seriously worried about what the future will look like for the company. They've been consistently releasing live-action versions of their animated classics for about 7 years, and yet it feels like they've been doing it for a lifetime. Eventually, they will run out of properties they want to adapt, and IMHO, that's when the fun will really begin. Honestly, if they even hint at making a Frozen live-action movie less than 20…

This is Halloween! This is Halloween! Pumpkins scream in the dead of night. This is Halloween, everybody make a scene. Trick or treat 'til the neighbors gonna die of fright. It's our town, everybody scream in this town of Halloween! Disney always does Halloween right. The next time I go to Disney World, I want to go during the Halloween season. There are a bunch of cute seasonal additions to the park, and unlike Christmas, there are not 100,000 people in the parks. Even if you take the theme pa…

Of all of the billion-dollar corporations, there is none with better brand recognition than Disney. How could there be? Do you think Apple could make timeless animated classics, less timeless live-action flicks, incredible theme parks, and Twitches ? I don't think so. Disney has convinced millions of people to wear their logo as merchandise. Google could literally never. Disney has got people consuming its products from their first days on this green earth to their dying moments, and no offense…

Disney movies really accurately portray the pressure society puts on all of us to grow up. When you’re a kid , you never think the time will come when you’ll feel like a grown up for real, but it always sneaks up on us. This transformation doesn’t happen overnight, but I’d say most of us have had several moments throughout our lives where we’ve realized just how adult we actually are. And this might kind of be a controversial opinion, but I think getting older is good, actually. When you’re a k…

OMW to Blockbuster

Ew

It doesn't seem that people have much reason to get angry

They're taking this wholesome vintage Disney classic and turning the characters into R rated trash talkers that TikTok absolutely loves.
