BB-9E In Action As Well As Some R2-D2 Fan Service In Two New Star Wars Blips

September 4, 2017

Yay!! More Star Wars Blips!!! This time around we get the first encounter between BB-8 & his new nemesis BB-9E. I think this Blip, titled Hey You, was cute, but I still don't know how I feel about an actual droid rivalry taking place in the Star Wars films. Watching this made me realize how much it would stand out from the rest of the film. Something like that just feels a little silly. Love it in "Blip" form though, it fits this little mini-series' tone so far & is probably one of the best episodes. I have to say one of the best, because this next one made me laugh out loud. Called Fan Droids, this has the new line of droids gathered around watching R2-D2's "Greatest Hits". Not only is it funny it has a great payoff in the end. R2 is not only the true hero of the Star Wars, the droid's also the envy of his peers. Check 'em out though, all these Blips have been fun so far. Let us know what you think I the comments, like, & share.

I swear, I need these things to play on repeat all the time in my head. It would keep me the happiest person in the world. Another Star Wars Blip, this time called Out of Reach has R2-D2 & BB-8 using some teamwork to get through a door. Keep these coming. In fact, I want a whole show of just these. Check it out, like, & share.

June 14, 2017

These Star Wars Blips are adorable, last time it was BB-8 with a lightsaber. This time around we get an epic dance battle between R2-D2 & BB-8. I hope they keep these coming. My littlest is a droid freak. R2, BB, Chopper, she loves them all. These cute little videos are right up her alley. So enjoy the dance battle, & may the force be with you.

Michelle Rejwan Now Senior VP Live Action Development And Production For Lucasfilm

Hollywood Reporter reports Michelle Rejwan is now the Senior VP of Live Action Development & Production. She will oversee new feature films as well Disney+ series while still producing with president Kathleen Kennedy. That seems like a hefty responsibility to drop on someone who's previous credits at Lucasfilm are producing The Force Awakens & The Rise of Skywalker. Kennedy really sees something in her though, having “seen first-hand her skills collaborating with writers and directors, and I've been incredibly impressed with her creative skills and her ability to manage the complexity surrounding these massive projects.” Can she be the Feige of Star Wars? Time will tell. After the hate Kennedy got from the last installment, which I loved by the way, one could think this is just to give her a scapegoat if things don't go as well over the next few projects. Curious to see how much influence this winds up having as a whole. What do y'all think? Trust in Kennedy? Or do you think maybe a more vetted choice would have been better? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

Disney Reveals Name of Tokyo DisneySea's 8th Port

After breaking ground in what is to become Tokyo DisneySea's 8th port, we now have its official name. Fantasy Springs will be the title, but that's not all Dismey released on the subject. They also released some beautiful day & night concept art depicting the look of the new lands. Oriental land is investing 250 Billion Yen on this project that will feature lands themed to Frozen, Tangled, & Peter Pan. Frozen's land of post film Arendelle will feature an attraction that tells the story of Elsa and her beloved sister, Anna. Sounding like the familiar Epcot ride, suests will board boats and experience the sisters’ heartfelt journey, enjoying songs from the film, and encountering surprising thrills. There will also be a restaurant set inside the beautiful Arendelle Castle. Tangled's land will naturally feature Rapunzel’s tower rising above the forest. It will also include an boat attraction where guests will board gondolas for a romantic boat tour of Rapunzel’s “Best Day Ever” as she journeys with Flynn to the lantern festival. Flickering lanterns illuminate the attraction’s climactic scene while Rapunzel and Flynn sing an iconic song from the film. The pand will also feature a restaurant, inspired by the hideout of the band of thugs who appeared in the film in the "I've Got A Dream" sequence. Neverland will also be home to two attractions and a restaurant. Featuring landmarks including verdant mountains, Captain Hook’s pirate ship and Skull Rock. One attraction will fly over the jungles of Neverland into a battle with Captain Hook and his crew of pirates to rescue Wendy’s younger brother, John, who has been kidnapped by Captain Hook and his pirates. You'll board boats and follow the Lost Boys down a river until Tinker Bell sprinkles the boats with pixie dust, & you take off flying through Neverland on an adventure that featuring iconic music and dynamic 3D imagery of the characters from the film. The second attraction immerses us in the oversized world of Pixie Hollow, while the restaurant is inspired by the Lost Boys and their hideout. There will also be a new Disney Hllyel in the park. Themed to Disney fantasy, it will rise above and around the magical springs that serve as the core of the new themed port’s story. Offering 475 deluxe-type and luxury-type guest rooms, this park facing hotel will also feature a merchandise shop that helps share the story of the magical springs. One day I'll make it out here to see all the amazingly beautiful things TokyoSea has to offer. Luckily, I have one more reason to postpone that adventure until this amazing new addition is done.
