Don't ask me why, but I love the Scream series. I remember previewing the first film, back when theaters used actual film reels, with a small group of friends after midnight. We were all debating who would turn out to be the killer. (I was half right.) When it opened officially the next night, I watched it again just to see the audience's reactions.
The kiddo has come to love them just as much as I do, so when Scream 6 arrived in theaters, we headed to the drive-in to watch it. It's a completely different experience watching a scary movie at a drive-in. You are definitely more aware of anything moving past you in the dark. It was a lot of fun!

An exciting new experience is coming to Hollywood Studios in Disney World this summer. The current home of Star Wars: Launch Bay is going back to its roots as a home to art and animation. The revamped building will be topped by Mickey's sorcerer hat in a nod to the Roy E. Disney Animation Building in California. From special character Meet & Greets, to an art gallery that comes to life, and a playground indpired by Mary Blair's vision of Alice in Wonderland, there will be magic around every corner in "The Magic of Disney Animation". But the part I'm looking forward to most involves a certain talking snowman.
Olaf Draws! will feature everyone's favorite magical snowman as an all-new Audio-Animatronics figure. Olaf invites guests into a space inspired by a scene in Once Upon A Studio where he took a little time to try out an Animator's desk. There will be sleigh-themed tables for kids and animator-style desks for the young at heart. And, with a little help from some legendary DisneyAnimation artists, Olaf and his new friends will learn to draw a Disney character.
Pre-recorded artist videos will guide guests through the process of drawing classic and modern Disney characters. Sketching classes include:
Mickey Mouse with Dan Abraham, director (Once Upon A Studio, Baymax!)
Minnie Mouse, with Hyun Min Lee, animator (Frozen 2, The Princess and the Frog)
Donald Duck, with Austin Traylor, animator (Once Upon A Studio, Moana 2)
Genie, with Eric Goldberg, animator (Aladdin, Hercules)
Moana, with Samantha Vilfort, story artist (Encanto, Zootopia 2)
Stitch, with Fawn Veerasunthorn, director and head of story (Wish, Raya and the Last Dragon)
Olaf, with Trent Correy, director (Once Upon A Studio, Frozen 3)
Ursula, with Michael Woodside, animator (Big Hero 6, Encanto)
There's something truly enjoyable about watching the Muppets perform. Here, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem take on Electric Light Orchestra's "Mr. Blue Sky."
I'm really hoping this is the kind of performance that will be included in Rock 'n' Roller Coaster after the Muppet transformation.
Universal'sThe Mummymovies have been favorites at our house since the start. There's just something delightful about these classic adventure stories. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the second film, The Mummy Returns. To celebrate, Universal is bringing it back to theaters.
Here's the official synopsis from Universal:
An exciting new take on one of Universal’s iconic Classic Monsters, "The Mummy" introduced moviegoers to dashing French foreign legionnaire Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser) and whip-smart scholar and librarian Evelyn (Rachel Weisz), sending them on a mythology-inspired adventure through 1920s Egypt.
Set 10 years after the events of the first film, "The Mummy Returns" picks up in 1933 with the swashbuckling heroes now married and living in London. Parents to eight-year-old Alex (Freddie Boath), the couple brings the boy along to their Egyptian expeditions, where they inadvertently uncover a rare artifact, the Bracelet of Anubis. The piece once belonged to a fearsome warrior known as the Scorpion King (Dwayne Johnson) and can be used to command his army of jackal-like fighters.
Back in London, trouble begins after the bracelet locks onto Alex’s wrist, just as a cult planning to resurrect the powerful mummy Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo), kidnaps Evelyn. Suddenly, father and son are forced to undertake a dangerous rescue mission alongside Evelyn’s spoiled brother (John Hannah), one that pits them against Meela Nais (Patricia Velasquez). The physical reincarnation of Imhotep’s ancient lover, she hopes Imhotep will defeat the Scorpion King in battle, thereby conquering the world.
Dodging all manner of unimaginable threats—death-defying chases, merciless hand-to-hand combat, even ritual sacrifice—the O’Connell family bravely fights to save the globe, and one another, from certain destruction.
The Mummy Returns returns to theaters on March 27th.
A new movie in the series starring Brendan Fraser & Rachel Weisz will arrive in theaters on May 19, 2028.
