With the opening of the new area of Disney Springs, a lot of new restaurants have opened as well. I wasn’t able to visit too many of them yet (unfortunately), but I did at least get to have dinner at one of them – D-Luxe Burger. Also, can I just mention how much the name […]
Finding Dory review
It’s been 13 years since Finding Nemo came out, and now that Pixar seems to be big on sequels we have Finding Dory. I got to go see Finding Dory during a special event hosted around the country called “Dory After Dark.” They showed Finding Nemo and Finding Dory back to back in 3D, and […]
Captain America: Civil War review
I’d been looking forward to seeing Captain America: Civil War for awhile, and that always makes me a little nervous. What if it doesn’t live up to my expectations? Luckily, in this case I can say that I really enjoyed the film. It wasn’t perfect, but I walked away from it happy. This review will […]
The Jungle Book review
Disney loves a live-action remake. And given the success that the Jungle Book had at the box office the past weekend, it seems that their efforts in making these sorts of films paid off. I got the chance to see the movie this past week and I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect going into […]
Zootopia review
This past weekend I got the chance to see Disney’s latest animated film, Zootopia. I will say that going into it I did not have high expectations – it looked cute, sure, but somewhat of a basic plot that seemed more appealing to kids than adults. I have to admit that I was totally wrong […]
The Finest Hours review
I know it’s been out for about a month, but I finally got to see the first movie of the year that Disney released – the Finest Hours. One of the cool things about going on a Disney Cruise is that they show movies in their movie theater that you can go watch (for free, […]
Star Wars: The Force Awakens review
Just like almost every other person in the country, I went to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens this past weekend. And like many other bloggers I figured I’d share my review of it. I know you’ve probably heard a ton about it but any Disney movie gets a review from me on this blog […]
The Good Dinosaur Review
The Good Dinosaur is a movie that I thought might never come to fruition. It had been discussed and was announced to be released in 2013, but obviously it got put off for awhile. They said the storyline had some fatal flaws and the entire thing basically got a re-haul. And I’ll admit, knowing about all […]
Cafe Orleans Review
One of the areas of Disneyland I was most excited to visit was New Orleans Square. Out in Florida this area was changed to Liberty Square, an a New Orleans themed area excited me! Plus, there are a number of food spots here, and I love some of the flavors that come from this area […]
Book Review: Go West, Young Mouse
While planning my first trip to Disneyland, I looked at a number of guidebooks and resources online. However, the best one I found was probably Go West, Young Mouse: The Ultimate Disneyland Guide for the Experienced Walt Disney World Traveler, by Taylor Roberts. The subtitle of the book is “The ultimate Disneyland guide for the […]
