News Round Up 2019

[crvetter]

Are Duck tales back out on TV or a streaming service these days? Do kids even know about Duck Tales? I'm just curious. If the show is not being shown currently, then I would find that theme to be a curious choice to replace Agent P.

They rebooted Duck Tales.

The best part about the tweet is that Iger tagged a random account named Paul Rudd and a random Galaxy Edge account.

Iger: there is no way I would tag a non-descript account themed to Paul Rudd or Galaxy’s Edge ... oh, wait

Thanks! We don't have cable TV, so I was unaware of the Duck Tales reboot. I'll have to see about getting it on DVD.

I'm sure it'll be available on Disney+ later this year. For less than the price of a DVD per month you'll have streaming access to tons of Disney content.

Not sure if still there but I know they had them on the Disney website and app. My kids just watch it via the roku on the Disney Junior app

Spitting camel removed from Magic Carpets of Aladdin

I could really get behind simpler treats at Disney like the no sugar added cupcake. Now, the no-sugar-added part doesn't work for me, personally, because that tends to be the verbiage used when something is made with artificial sweeteners, which I cannot have. (BUT I am very happy for the people who this works really well for! ) But while the article's author is bummed by the fact that it's not an over-the-top cupcake, I would love the addition of a basic cupcake, made with sugar, with whipped cream and fruit on top instead of highly colored, glittered, gelatin filled icings and decorations. To me this new cupcake looks wonderful. But, like almost every WDW dessert, I still probably can't eat it.

Another thought on the review is that when you are eating sugar, anything sugar-free (or reduced sugar) will not taste good. Your taste buds are accustomed to having sugar (and copious amounts, even if just sampling all the Disney cupcakes). To get a more accurate review, they should have someone who eats sugar-free or basically sugar-free, try the cupcake and review it. I think that would be a whole new niche for a vlogger/blogger - reviewing all the special diet items (GF and low sugar/sugar-free in particular).

They better bring it back! Nothing is more hilarious than my kid screaming about getting spit on.

Good. This camel and I are not friends. Even though I knew to stay away, one time I forgot and he got me directly in the eye. I know that sounds funny and probably was, but it hurt a lot. Took a few hours for my eye to feel ok again.

We are not friends.

Perhaps they are planning a temporary return of the Aladdin float for the parade to celebrate the opening of the movie next month?

I agree. I love that silly camel.
