Bounty of Trouble — Eyes On Eisley

Now we have two more episodes of the ongoing Star Wars: Forces of Destiny shorts. This time they take place on the same planet in the same general area. That being said, with who's involved I would almost think these also take place at roughly the same, if not, the same time. The first one, titled The Stranger pits Jyn Erso against some stormtroopers in an attempt to rescue a little girl's cat. That description alone almost speaks volumes for this episode. This definitely ranks with the Hoth episode in terms of throwaway, even if it is a little more enjoyable. That could be in part to kitty cuteness though. It does at least build on the character of Jyn Erso though. As she helps this kid, whom she doesn't know at all, at great risk to herself. That in itself does score a couple of extra points for this short, placing it above the Endor & Hoth episodes in my book. The next short, titled Bounty of Trouble, I really enjoyed. This one has Sabine Wren staging a kidnapping of Princess Leia to pass off stolen Imperial Plans. So far this is the one that has felt most worthy of having the title Star Wars. I could see this scenario starting off a scene in Rebels. Speaking of which, that's where I feel this series, once again, failed by missing a great spot to tie this in to the already established lore. I think they're really missing an opportunity here. If saying you want more of something is my only complaint though, they had to have done something right with this one. I really hope if they keep doing these, they stay with more stories like this one. That not only seem to fit the universal tone, but can also be tied in somewhere to the bigger picture. So all in all, I'll say I enjoyed 1n a half of both of these. What did y'all think? Let us know down in the comments, like & share.

Michelle Rejwan Now Senior VP Live Action Development And Production For Lucasfilm

Hollywood Reporter reports Michelle Rejwan is now the Senior VP of Live Action Development & Production. She will oversee new feature films as well Disney+ series while still producing with president Kathleen Kennedy. That seems like a hefty responsibility to drop on someone who's previous credits at Lucasfilm are producing The Force Awakens & The Rise of Skywalker. Kennedy really sees something in her though, having “seen first-hand her skills collaborating with writers and directors, and I've been incredibly impressed with her creative skills and her ability to manage the complexity surrounding these massive projects.” Can she be the Feige of Star Wars? Time will tell. After the hate Kennedy got from the last installment, which I loved by the way, one could think this is just to give her a scapegoat if things don't go as well over the next few projects. Curious to see how much influence this winds up having as a whole. What do y'all think? Trust in Kennedy? Or do you think maybe a more vetted choice would have been better? Put it in the comments, like, & share.

Disney Reveals Name of Tokyo DisneySea's 8th Port

After breaking ground in what is to become Tokyo DisneySea's 8th port, we now have its official name. Fantasy Springs will be the title, but that's not all Dismey released on the subject. They also released some beautiful day & night concept art depicting the look of the new lands. Oriental land is investing 250 Billion Yen on this project that will feature lands themed to Frozen, Tangled, & Peter Pan. Frozen's land of post film Arendelle will feature an attraction that tells the story of Elsa and her beloved sister, Anna. Sounding like the familiar Epcot ride, suests will board boats and experience the sisters’ heartfelt journey, enjoying songs from the film, and encountering surprising thrills. There will also be a restaurant set inside the beautiful Arendelle Castle. Tangled's land will naturally feature Rapunzel’s tower rising above the forest. It will also include an boat attraction where guests will board gondolas for a romantic boat tour of Rapunzel’s “Best Day Ever” as she journeys with Flynn to the lantern festival. Flickering lanterns illuminate the attraction’s climactic scene while Rapunzel and Flynn sing an iconic song from the film. The pand will also feature a restaurant, inspired by the hideout of the band of thugs who appeared in the film in the "I've Got A Dream" sequence. Neverland will also be home to two attractions and a restaurant. Featuring landmarks including verdant mountains, Captain Hook’s pirate ship and Skull Rock. One attraction will fly over the jungles of Neverland into a battle with Captain Hook and his crew of pirates to rescue Wendy’s younger brother, John, who has been kidnapped by Captain Hook and his pirates. You'll board boats and follow the Lost Boys down a river until Tinker Bell sprinkles the boats with pixie dust, & you take off flying through Neverland on an adventure that featuring iconic music and dynamic 3D imagery of the characters from the film. The second attraction immerses us in the oversized world of Pixie Hollow, while the restaurant is inspired by the Lost Boys and their hideout. There will also be a new Disney Hllyel in the park. Themed to Disney fantasy, it will rise above and around the magical springs that serve as the core of the new themed port’s story. Offering 475 deluxe-type and luxury-type guest rooms, this park facing hotel will also feature a merchandise shop that helps share the story of the magical springs. One day I'll make it out here to see all the amazingly beautiful things TokyoSea has to offer. Luckily, I have one more reason to postpone that adventure until this amazing new addition is done.
