News Round Up 2017

[PolyRob]

Not really Disney news, but for the six Apple Watch owners out there (Looking at you, Ryan), Apple is introducing new Toy Story watch faces with the new OS later this year (Alongside the current Mickey and Minnie).

Go crazy.

I am sitting here at work trying to hide my excitement of this news as I stream the keynote on my phone and post to disboards

Dang. If we had known that before last week's silent auction, maybe we could have had a new auction item that would have Kevin and John go and review the new menu.

I immediately thought maybe we could get John and Kevin to try it again.

Hopefully they are using the extended time to not have another flop like the Jimmy Fallon ride.

Interesting video about a possible patent application for the Star Wars Battle/Escape attraction.

Here's a quote from FastPasser in the DHS Star Wars thread from the TPAS forum. It seemed like news to me:

Look at what I just found.
Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away will be dark through June 15, returning on June 16. When it returns, it will use new mobile performance stages for the performance of the show. The stages will be put in place each morning and removed from the park after the final performance of Star Wars: A Galaxy Far, Far Away each evening. This will allow more space for guests to view both projection shows.

I have been wanting Disney to do this ever since Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular debuted last year. The stage they have now can block the Chinese Theater depending on how close your spot is.
