Just finished episode 2 of Imagineering... loved it! They are finally up to the point where my whole fam started going to WDW and it is so amazing to see EPCOT the way I remember it! We always followed the company along, as far as CEO's and such, so it's neat that they are including that info as they go.

So what's the final episode going to be like? We wanted to do this .. but our current leadership only cares about dollars/cents and not imagination or vision ... so you get a Frozen ride overlay in Norway with a good animatronic or two .. but hardly any set pieces or you get a 30 second boatride in Pandora with one animatronic and a lot of screens.

Just amazes me juts how "busy" a ride like Pirates is from a set/animatronic standpoint and how that was done with a fraction of the technology today.

I am sure they will end with Galaxy's Edge and Rise of the Resistance which is said to be full of physical sets and ton of animatronics, etc

Forgot what shows you started to watch. Check out your Apple TV app if you have apple of course. it has it on there. I’m sure Disney plus will have a update soon for continue watching what you started. In the meantime check it out on your Apple TV app.

As pp said, be sure to watch Clone Wars in chronological order and not by release date. The first several seasons are all jumbled up time-wise and it’s quite confusing. I quickly switched to chronological order and it all made sense.

I'm not watching D+ right now, but for my future reference, how do you switch Clone Wars to chronological order? Does the menu give you an option to click, or do you have to manually do it?

Or the last episode might be about projects that are currently in the works.

Just watched the first episode of The Imagineering Story....loved it! I watched it with my 6 year old son and he really liked it too. At first I was not sure if I should let him see it because I didn't want to ruin any of the magic for him but he knows that people build the parks and rides....he just thinks the characters he meets are the actual real ones from the movies. Ever since we went to WDW last fall, he has used various materials and toys to build his own layouts of Disney World and he draws maps of Disney etc. At a young age, he understood the design process and how you have to make plans first etc. So this was a great show for him. As he was watching it he said maybe he can be one of the people who design the parks when he gets older.

Currently, there is no way to switch it to chronological order. The order can be found on the Star Wars website (or just google Clone Wars chronological). I tried to paste the link but it wouldn't let me.

It’s really sort of amazing how much access they gave her and her team.

I've been surprised at the level of candor about some of the problems they've faced.

I'm absolutely shocked that The Black Cauldron is in 4k HDR. It never even got a Blu-Ray Release.

We watched the first episode this morning... It was amazing.

I am happy to report that Mary Poppins and Who Framed Roger Rabbit are both still amazing movies.

At the end I had tears in my eyes too.

 

[Jennasis]

Mandalorian #2 was outstanding. As a kid I had a huge crush on Boba Fett...as an adult I'm already getting swoony over the Mandalorian. LOL. Oh and the new character?? Adorbs.

Quirk. The titles and scroll for Star Wars A New Hope are in French. Rest of the series are in English.

Downloaded App from Google Play store onto TV set top box. No sound. Others have same problem

Side note: I like be how engaged the Iwerks and co. twitter account has been - liking and responding to so many posts about the show, made it much more of an interactive experience

 

[iZon]

So some very old cartoons have sound but nothing new

Mary Poppins is my all time favorite Disney movie.

Steamboat Willie and Computer Wore Tennis Shoes have sound. Snowball Express and Bednobs do not. Nothing new does. Disney must have different formats for different movies.
