Marvel Exhibit at the Franklin Institute

by Leave a Comment

One of my favorite places in Philadelphia is the Franklin Institute. The science museum is fun to visit any time, but they have some great events throughout the year. We love their adults only “Science After Hours” in the evenings, and they also have one or two special exhibits during the year which are always […]

Once again exciting things will be happening this month! Galaxy’s Edge will finally open in Disney World in Florida (it’s been open in Disneyland since June).

The Lion King live action review

by Leave a Comment

The live action version of The Lion King is a good movie. It is only a good movie because it is a re-creation of an amazing movie that had a fantastic plot, soundtrack, and dialogue, but it is an inferior re-creation. If we lived in a world where the animated Lion King didn’t exist, I […]

How to survive Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

There is no doubt that Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of the biggest things to happen to a Disney theme park. The level of anticipation has been high, and while there is a ton of excitement in the air there is also some fear about the crowds and what to expect. If you’re planning […]

Walt Disney Studios Tour

by Leave a Comment

The Walt Disney Studios does not offer tours on a regular basis – unlike Warner Brothers and Paramount, it’s not something you can just buy tickets to and go see. However, they do have a few unique opportunities to do a tour. One of these is if you save up your codes and earn enough […]
