07/24/22 • 119 min

Dispodopolis - Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and everything in between

This month on Dispodopolis, we discuss Ryan's latest cruise on the Disney ship, Wonder. He did something very impulsive a couple of months ago and booked a last-minute cruise out of Galveston on the Disney Wonder. Galveston is a port in Texas that is just south of Houston. Not only was it a last-minute cruise, but it was also the last of this season's Very Merrytime Cruises. Tonight, we talk about boarding the ship and how to prepare for your excursion. We also dive deep into the food choices and the good and bad about the sit-down dining. We start our conversation about the entertainment available on the Wonder. Before discussing Ryan's cruising excursion, we discuss our top three moments that Disney made us cry. I went for the nostalgic movies I remember as a kid. These types of movies make you self-aware of your emotions and attachments to those around you. Fiona focused on her recent deep dive into the family Halloween movie genre, which included the latest Muppets special centered on the Haunted Mansion. Ryan focused on some of the more recent Pixar and Disney releases that hit all the right sentiments for him. He has really enjoyed the covid releases that have been hitting Disney+. Recorded to release on February 20th, 2022.

Dispodopolis No. 0049: The Muppets meet the Haunted Mansion

This month on Dispodopolis, we discuss the Muppets Haunted Mansion special on DisneyPlus. This special was a much-anticipated show for those that love anything and everything Haunted Mansion and Muppets. It came out with a bang, and those entrenched in the world of The Muppets and dad jokes were in love with this rendition. It was a much-needed family special that brought parents and their children together and gave us a mental break from the divide in media entertainment. Media today has rarely created a piece that works for small children and their parents, and the Muppets have always been about entertaining the whole family. This special also reconnected us to the great music that has filled the Muppet movies over the years. I don't know why I was taken back when they began to break into song. Of course, they did. This is the seventies Muppets I grew up with in my childhood. Before discussing the Muppets Haunted Mansion special, we discuss what easter egg we would like to see in the Haunted Mansion that is influenced by the Muppets Haunted Mansion special. We discuss which characters we would like to see as a cameo and what special effects we think would be fun to see in the Haunted Mansion. What easter egg would you like to see in the Haunted Mansion? Recorded to release on November 20th, 2021.
