A New Fireworks Show Is Coming To MNSSHP

Disney
Disney recently announced that a new fireworks display is coming to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. I'm not sure whether to be excited or to dread the change. The Halloween fireworks have long been my favorite nighttime show. There's nothing like standing in Fantasyland surrounded by a ring of fireworks. It's incredible!

The new show will feature Disney's state-of-the-art projections, lasers, lighting, and fireworks, all coming together to tell a whole new story. Guests will watch as Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy are drawn into a mysterious haunted house. In each room, they'll  find somethingspooky, but not-so-scary, such as dancing skeletons, waltzing ghosts, or troublemaking villains.

This year, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party runs on select nights from August 16 to November 1.

The New Lion King Trailer is Stunning

Disney
The first full length trailer for the live-action Lion King is here and it looks incredible. The settings are gorgeous and the CGI animals are stunningly realistic.


Here's the official synopsis from Disney:

Director Jon Favreau’s all-new “The Lion King” journeys to the African savanna where a future king is born. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub’s arrival. Scar, Mufasa’s brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba’s exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. The all-star cast includes Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa and Billy Eichner as Timon. Utilizing pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring treasured characters to life in a whole new way, Disney’s “The Lion King” roars into theaters on July 19, 2019.
