We are so delighted to share these amazing updated images directly from the official Disney Parks blog. Earlier today, Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products Josh D’Amaro took the virtual stage at the IAAPA Expo: Virtual Education Conference to update the public on what all the House of Mouse has been up to as far as new things coming to the parks. Perhaps the thing we’re the MOST excited about is these new images of the Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser hotel rooms! In a galaxy far, far away, progress continues at Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, where guests will live aboard a…

Imagine if you will a modern witch (gender neutral term y’all), jumping on their broomstick and jetting off to get errands done. Pretty easy to picture, right? Let’s update that image….and add a scooter to the broomstick. Enter Vinícius Sanctus and Alessandro Russo from San Paolo, Brazil, and their amazing broomstick scooter. We’re pretty sure Russo is actually a Hogwarts (or Drumstrang or any of the other schools) professor. You’ve got to see the broomstick in action: Russo and Sanctus are hoping to bring the design to the world stage, with an initial price point of around $750.

Disney+ is revisiting another beloved animated series, rebooting the terror that flaps in the night- “Darkwing Duck!” Announced last week, the reboot is still in the early stages of development, with Seth Rogan, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, and Alex McAtee possibly on board to produce. Darkwing Duck *does* currently appear from time to time on Disney+’s rebooted “Ducktales” (woohooo!) series, but there is no indication that this new Darkwing Duck will be that version. That’s pretty much all we know for sure so far, as Variety’s report was scant on details. You can watch classic “Darkwing Duck” episodes, only on…

We are delighted to share the news that Netflix has opted to renew the Steve Carell-led comedy “Space Force” for a second season! Take THAT, naysayers (and also the brand new branch of the American military of the same name). Sure, the comedy is a little deadpan, but it you enjoy comedy like “The Office,” then this is a show for you. Not to mention such a STELLAR cast- Steve Carell, John Malkovich, Ben Schwartz, Diana Silvers, Lisa Kudrow, Tawny Newsome, and Jimmy O Yang. Season one of “Space Force” is currently streaming, only on Netflix.

The passing of legendary tv personality Alex Trebek was something we were really hoping to avoid in 2020, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case, and the longtime host of Jeopardy lost his battle with pancreatic cancer earlier this month. While Trebek did film enough remaining episodes of the gameshow to last until Christmas 2020 before his passing, questions almost immediately arose as to who would be taking his place at the podium. Some betting sites have odds listed for notable persons, but this particular petition that launched over the weekend has to be one of our favorites. LeVar Burton, who…

The day Tower Records announced bankruptcy and national closure of stores was a sad one for music lovers 14 years ago. Always a mainstay for picking up a new album or standing in line to purchase concert tickets at 10am, the record store was a haven. And as of this past weekend, Tower Records has returned- albeit online. A super-secret launch during 2020’s South By Southwest in Austin, TX was originally planned for the new Tower Records website, but 2020 being what it is- that didn’t happen. What we have now is a site built around the classic idea of…

This just in- it sounds like the next live-action adaptation coming from Walt Disney Studios is none other than “Lilo & Stitch!” We’re as surprised as you are, honestly.Apparently “Crazy Rich Asians” director Jon M. Chu is currently “in talks” with Disney to helm the film, at least according to Variety.This story is still developing. Same Stitch, same.

We are first and foremost hoping for the safety of all Ubisoft employees and other inhabitants of the Montreal building. According to several sources, some type of possible “hostage” situation took place earlier today in the building, prompting several persons to take refuge on the building’s roof. Local authorities have yet to comment, but several Ubisoft employees have been posting to Twitter about the ongoing situation. We are keeping an eye on the situation, and will let you know what we hear about any possible update. UPDATES

Sometimes, the internet can be a strange and wonderful place, especially when incredible artists take it upon themselves to create new and fabulous takes on classic things. Like this pretty damn perfect “Star Trek: The Next Generation” tarot deck that we REALLY want that Jim of Jim’ll Paint It came up with.I mean just LOOK at Q as Judgement, and Lwaxana Troi with The Lovers!You can check out more of Jim’s work via his patreon here. C’mon Roddenberry- get this guy a “Star Trek” license, stat!

We are VERY excited to share the news that HBO Max has just released an official trailer for their upcoming “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” reunion special which will air later this month!As you can see in the below trailer, the majority of the Banks family reunited for this: 30 years later, we’re bringing the Banks family back together! Join Will Smith and Tatyana Ali, Karyn Parsons, Joseph Marcell, Daphne Maxwell Reid, Alfonso Ribeiro, and DJ Jazzy Jeff for a funny and heartfelt night full of music and dancing in honor of the show that ran for six seasons and…
