Last week, Marvel announced that production was beginning on Captain America: Civil War and they announced the slew of actors involved, which makes the third installment in the Captain America franchise feel more like Avengers 3.

Internationally known retailers and a 1900s look will be features of Town Center, the next phase of Downtown Disney’s transformation into Disney Springs, company officials say.

The Walt Disney Archives today announced it will celebrate the 60th anniversary of Disneyland at D23 EXPO 2015 with an exhibit of more than 300 pieces from the park’s incredible history. “Walt Disney Archives Presents—Disneyland: The Exhibit” will be the largest display the Disney Archives has ever showcased at D23 EXPO. The event, presented by D23: The Official Disney Fan Club, will take place August 14–16 at the Anaheim Convention Center.
The 12,000-square-foot exhibit, which will be located on the Expo show floor for the first time, will include themed areas that honor the park’s history, attractions, parades, and entertainment over the past six decades, including the construction of Disneyland, Pirates of the Caribbean, Mickey Mouse Club at Disneyland, Club 33, and collectible merchandise, as well as the park’s iconic lands: Main Street, U.S.A., Fantasyland, Frontierland, New Orleans Square, Tomorrowland, and Critter Country/Bear Country. Each area will contain items from Disneyland’s past, including attraction vehicles, costumes, props, and even Audio-Animatronics® figures.
Among the more-than-300 items on exhibit, guests will be able to see Ticket No. 1, purchased by Roy O. Disney on July 18, 1955, the first day the park was open to the general public. Guests will see many pieces shown by the Archives for the first time, including early surveying equipment from the 1950s used in the construction of Disneyland, a prototype vehicle for the beloved Alice in Wonderland attraction, dancingmonkey costumes used in the nighttime spectacular Fantasmic!, an early Autopia car, original artwork from Mickey Mouse Club Circus, the Abominable Snowman from the Matterhorn Bobsleds, which was replaced during the attraction’s recent enhancement, and an original pitch book full of colorful artwork that was used to sell Disneyland to prospective sponsors on the East Coast.

The following conversation with Tomorrowland director Brad Bird is a good reminder of why we need filmmakers like him. Not that we could forget his cinematic contributions anytime soon thanks to The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol etc. but Bird’s commitment to big, original story ideas and the way in which he fosters them is important to all of us film-loving fans.
George Clooney came back to Disneyland for the first time in 20 years on Saturday to celebrate the upcoming release of his long-awaited movie, “Tomorrowland.”
Disney’s theme parks, with their obsessive attention to detail and experience, have always been the most interesting in the industry. In many ways, they resemble miniature world’s fairs—assuming we lived in a fantastical universe where countries had names like “Frontierland” and “Tomorrowland”.
Sunday’s two-hour Once Upon a Time finale is all about villains trying to finally achieve their happy endings. Specifically, we’re talking Disney villains, a gang of throne-usurpers and puppy-murderers who are generally a lot more sympathetic on Once than they were in their original incarnations.
