If there’s one thing that Disney fans always love, it’s a classic Disney icon like Roy Disney or a Disney Legend like Jodi Benson. Many Disney fans want to feel a stronger connection to the Walt Disney Company and its history, as if they were able to speak directly to Walt Disney himself — but there are still some people ...

Disney’s new live-action adaptation of Peter Pan (1953), called Peter Pan & Wendy, has been receiving mixed reviews so far — partly because Disney fans seem to be more and more frustrated, on a larger scale, by Disney’s infatuation with live-action remakes of the company’s classic animated films. Peter Pan & Wendy had already raised some eyebrows before its very recent Disney+ premiere ...

Walt Disney Studios is making it clear that it is on a mission beyond entertainment regarding its latest live-action remake of an animated classic, Peter Pan & Wendy.  Our return to neverland comes directed by David Lowery and, as the trailer already showed, will bring a series of changes to the story Disney fans grew up with.

Character Meet and Greets can be magical (and sometimes, even life-saving) experiences for Walt Disney World Resort Guests.

But who cares that Tinker Bell is black? The gorgeous Yara Shahidi actually looks amazing! Also, who cares ...

There is an old saying that all good things must come to an end. While we’d like to believe that the magical experiences to be had at Walt Disney World are all exempt from this concept, we all know better. We’ve seen it firsthand when one of our favorite attractions closes or a highly enjoyable non-attraction offering becomes defunct. That’s ...

Here we go! This Disney-inspired cocktail will have you off to Neverland! Out of all of Disney’s amazing female characters, Tinker Bell is something special.
