The A-Lister
The Realists Take
Mickey Mouse, your once tiny boat has turned into the Titanic of entertainment, and we’re all buying first-class tickets. Our favorite house of mouse is turning the big ONE-O-O (now, that’s a lot of birthday candles)! As Disney turns 100, it’s throwing a magical bash, and we’re all invited (RSPV-ing YES!).
The spotlight shifts onto diverse and dynamic filmmakers with Disney’s Launchpad Season 2 and streaming it has become every couch potato’s newest marathon. Meanwhile, Marvel tries desperately to remind us of everything Loki has done so far by throwing episodes of Marvel Legends at us faster than Thor’s hammer.
Disney Channel and Disney Junior have some giggles to spare with “Hailey’s On It!” and “Alice’s Wonderland Bakery” episodes. It’s all about robot suspicions and Halloween scares for the former, while the latter hosts palace holiday celebrations and fancy dinners. I mean, where else can you get robot spies and Dodo beach parties in the same roster?
And Chief Lightyear has tossed his cowboy hat into the sports arena with ESPN, and you guessed it, their football collaboration will have you yelling “Go long, Buzz!” as your latest Sunday Funday ritual. Clearly, this football game isn’t just a game—it’s a story. So dust off your sports jerseys and foam fingers—it’s go-time in Andy’s room!
In the end, as Disney serves up its diverse entertainment buffet, we’re left wondering: Who needs cherry pie when you’ve got servings of magic, mayhem, and a splash of pigskin on the side?
