Words cannot describe how amazing this trailer is.

The things they can do with visual effects in movies and television now are insane.
Some really interesting bits in this *Wall Street Journal* article:
> Maelstrom, on which visitors ride a floating log on a tour through Norwegian mythology, has been “gutted,” Ms. Mangum said, and is currently getting “a whole new overlay with ‘Frozen.’” While the logs and the path will remain the same, everything you see along the way is being replaced.
> …
> The audio-animatronic characters will be cutting edge, Ms. Mangum said, using a new technology that includes projectors behind the faces to enable more lifelike animation. It was first used on the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train ride that opened in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom last year.
There is no doubt that the ride is going to be a huge hit, but I think it’s going to be a really good experience, too.
Yes, I will be buying a Darwyn Cooke-styled Harley Quinn figure.
Holy cow. I did *not* expect this.
I don’t post links to all of these (since I probably could), but this one really made me feel good about how the Magic Kingdom is looking recently.
I wonder if this is why the Wilderness Lodge rates stayed so even this year.
I’m always impressed at how big of a star The Rock is.
I usually like Neal McDonough, so I assume I’ll like him in this role.
It felt like a “6” when we were there on the 28th.
I hope she’s going to play all the parts.
I know it’s silly, but I kind of want the Red Sox ones.
It’s tough to find anything wrong with this decision.
Interesting. I don’t remember Ms. Yung from *G.I. Joe: retaliation*, but clips I’ve seen seem to show that she has the fighting moves down.
I guess Elyssa and I won’t be riding the WDW Railroad in November.
I’ll definitely be adding this to my DVR.
This post by Savannah Sanders contains a number of the reasons I will (probably) never go on a cruise. Small pools, waits for elevators, etc… I don’t want to deal with that on my vacation.

Disney’s “Learn to Draw” Series
Here are my favorite “Learn to Draw” videos from Disney:
* [Anger](http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/06/learn-to-draw-anger-from-pixars-inside-out-at-disneys-hollywood-studios/);
* [Elsa](http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/06/learn-to-draw-elsa-from-frozen/); and, of course,
* [Buzz](http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/02/learn-to-draw-buzz-lightyear-from-toy-story/).
I’m not sure which of these books I’ll subscribe to. Maybe:
* Thor
* Captain Marvel
* Ms. Marvel
* Doctor Strange
I don’t know if I’m going to read any of the new X-Men or Avengers books.
I guess I know which fireworks that I’ll be watching on Saturday.
