Guy at work claims (he heard) it is Last Jedi, and Disney isn't admitting it. Can't be true can it?

Extremely unlikely. Movie would be a long way from having special effects completed or even editing done. In theory there could be a rough print out there somewhere that would spoil plot points, but my guess is it is not on a connected server yet.

So not sure how many people realize this, but in the current age of technology, movies come to the theaters on glorified SD cards. There's a LOT of security behind these cards to ensure they don't go anywhere, but as they are being produced, I'm sure the file that contains the movie has to be available on a hard drive somewhere. That's why it's much more likely to be Pirates 5 or potentially Cars 3, but extremely unlikely to be something like The Last Jedi.
 
ABC to be joining in on the live musical trend with The Wonderful World of Disney: Little Mermaid Live! This is set to air on October 3rd. This will intertwine the 1989 animated film with live musical performances of Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's score. It will be performed similarly to last June's Hollywood Bowl production, which featured live performances while the animated film played in the background. The Wonderful World of Disney: Little Mermaid Live will be produced by Done Dusted, with Hamish Hamilton, Ian Stewart, David Jammy, Katy Mullan, and Richard Kraft, of Kraft-Engel Productions, serving as executive producers.

Like I say, it came from here (I didn't know his source)-not that's its reliable.

Man, if only. I would love to see a decent version of this again.
I really love this movie...one of my first childhood memories is going to the theater as a very young child and seeing it. yes I know, it's fallen out of favor from a political perspective, but the Brer Rabbit stories were so great...and my kids loved seeing it too when they were small. My daughter mostly remembered the part about the bull chasing the little boy...but she was pretty young when she saw it.
 
The bigger question is why they are dredging up these old shows? Can't imagine a huge public outcry demanding to see them again...
Every networks and studio is doing it. Old shows are all the rave for nostalgic purposes. American Idol, Roseanne, Will and Grace, Fuller House, it goes on and on.
