We’re going to rank our favorites between Wishes vs. Happily Ever After vs. Disney Enchantment at Magic Kingdom, and Illuminations: Reflections of Earth, Epcot Forever, and Harmonious at Epcot. Here’s the rundown of what we talked about:

  • Sophie: Some movie news to report: 1) There is a sequel in development for Disney’s Jungle Cruise movie! 2) Disney’s Encanto is named the Best Motion Picture – Animated at the Golden Globes! 3) Lastly, there is a remake of the 2003 Haunted Mansion movie in the works, and they are looking for extras for the New Orleans shoot!

  • “I’m just very curious—got to find out what makes things tick—and I’ve always liked working with my hands; my father was a carpenter. I even apprenticed to my own machine shop here and learned the trade. Since my outlook and attitudes are ingrained throughout our organization, all our people have this curiosity; it keeps us moving forward, exploring, experimenting, opening new doors.” – Walt Disney
