The Cozy Princess Reviews: Disney's Aladdin (2019)

Aladdin is probably my favorite Disney animated movie and I've been really exited and nervous about this new live action version! I've gone back and forth about how I feel about Will Smith as Genie and I'm not the biggest fan of Guy Ritchie... but I think it all worked out nicely in this movie and they did a great job!

The movie starts with a really simply beautiful opening number of Arabian Nights with a shot panning over all of the characters in their own very ordinary world. You can see Aladdin with Abu on the streets and then it goes to Jasmine looking longingly over Agrabah while Rajah goes to attack Iago... It is honestly a stunning way to show all of our characters and it's probably one of my favorite movie moments.

Now let's talk about the music in this movie... the Music of Aladdin is probably my favorite in any Disney Movie... and everyone in this movie really did a great job. Will Smith is very underrated as a singer... I really liked his version of Friend Like Me... which is my favorite Disney song. I also really liked Naomi Scott as Jasmine and Mena Massoud as Aladdin. They sounded really great. I would say Aladdin really sounded as good if not better than the original. The Whole New World Scene was really great for a lot of reasons... but the singing was absolutely amazing.

The one song I really have to say I didn't like was Speechless- which is Jasmine's new song. It wasn't a bad song itself... but it felt very out of place in the movie. Particularly in the reprise... which was just a mess of a scene in general. It was basically a very poppy aside from Jasmine... but it showed the guards kind of disappearing as she walked passed them in a "Thanos Snap" almost. It looked like that and my boyfriend and I both said "SHE JUST SNAPPED THOSE GUARDS" which was pretty funny. It also seemed like it should have been a very powerful moment for Jasmine herself... but it gave the character Hakim oddly too much power. It felt very odd for the most part... and I just didn't love this part.

Another thing I want to talk about is the CGI in the movie. It was actually really good for most of the movie... but there were times I looked at Genie's face and it just looked so strange. It seemed copied and pasted onto his body and it didn't look like it fit. I still overall liked the appearance of the Genie in his Blue, Larger Than Life form- so I didn't find it that distracting... plus he was in his human form for most of the movie. The CGI on the Whole New World Scene was actually really good... and I loved Carpet.

The Chemistry between Naomi Scott and Mena Massoud was incredible too. It seemed very natural... they were just really adorable and it seemed so genuine. Aladdin and Jasmine are my favorite Disney Couple... and seeing them brought to life was just amazing.

All of the characters brought to life were so so good too... one I keep thinking about actually was Jafar. Yes- it's been mentioned that he is actually very hot in this movie... but he was also just a good choice. The more I think about the movie now... the more I'm like "Jafar was actually one of my favorite parts of the movie!" Jafar was played by Marwan Kenzari... I'm definitely going to watch more of his movies... it looks like he's been in a lot of "action-y" movies lately that... were badly reviewed... but now I'm feeling they might be worth watching. He was in 2017's The Mummy and Murder on The Orient Express and 2016's Ben Hur... I want to watch these. Aspen- if you're reading this... I'm probably going to make you watch The Mummy. Love you! Hahaha.

Also Guy Ritchie was just the perfect choice to direct this movie. The Slow Motion Scenes looked really cool... and he just does a good job at action/adventure movies and I'm glad they really went with an action/adventure feel for this movie.

This is definitely my new favorite Disney Live Action remake... but I'll put it up with one of my favorite Disney Live Action movies in general. Like on Par with The Princess Diaries for me. I just really loved it and now I'm excited for The Lion King!

Let me know what you guys thought of this movie! What were your favorite and least favorite parts?

TTFN!

Style Saturday: 101 Dalmatians Disneybound OOTD

I just got a Polka Dotted shirt that looked like a 101 Dalmatians type of shirt... so this seemed perfect. And a lot like my Belle Inspired Disneybound I also wore this to work... so I couldn't go too over the top with this one... but I loved how this turned out!

Top 
Like I said this is a plain White T Shirt with Black Polka Dots. It is from Avon- actually sold in a 4 pack. It's super nice and casual... you could probably find this sort of thing anywhere! Oh and because I was at work- I used this Hot Topic Lace Duster over it to look a little fancier.

Jeans 
I went with black jeans. You could do something more interesting- but I was going to work so I kept it simple. If you have a skirt or something like that... that might be cute too.

Accessories 
I had these earrings from the store I work at... and they remind me of puppy dog ears. These are like a marble themed dangly earring. These are trendy right now and I just thought these were cute and looked perfect with this.

I also went with this silver necklace from Universal Thread. It has a little gold circle in it... so it reminds me of a puppy collar.

If I were at the parks... 
I might wear shorts or a black skirt or something instead. Maybe I would wear a belt to represent the color of the dog collars... or I could use a choker or something. I might try to see if there was a 101 Dalmatians themed pocketbook out there... I loved the themed bags with this too. And of corse Dalmatians ears if I could find them!

Hope you guys like this look! I had a lot of fun with this one! I love the Dalmatians!

TTFN!

Movie Monday: Aladdin

I'm so excited for the new Aladdin movie! It comes out FRIDAY so of corse I needed to watch the original movie first- this is probably one of my favorite Disney movies of all time... if not my actual favorite... and I'm just happy to see it! And I'm excited to share my review of the original because... this is just great!

And I'm pretty sure this is STILL my favorite! I could watch this ALL the time. It has so many of my favorite disney things in it...and that kind of just makes this my all around favorite movie.

My first favorite in this movie is my Favorite Disney Song. I'll probably do a whole post on this sometime... but it is Friend Like Me sung by The Genie. It's just such a funny song and it is so so good. I love the animated sequence of this too. I just think it's a lot of fun and Genie might be the best character...but the characters in this movie are great!

Also my favorite Disney Prince: Aladdin of corse! I just think he's really sweet and very fun! He's also kind of a well rounded prince with a lot of personality. I like his singing voice too. Plus he's smart and he thinks on his feet. He's cute... I really like him.

I think those are my only 2 favorites from the movie... but those are 2 really big favorites! Plus I just love the movie as a whole! It's got a lot of heart, great songs... great characters and I'm just always excited to watch it.

I think that's actually all I have to say about it. This is a short movie Monday... but this is just a fun movie and I really like it a lot!

Bye!

Style Saturday: Cute Disney Inspired OOTD

This week I decided to do a Disney Inspired Outfit instead of a Disneybound. I'm not always going to have Disney Outfits or Disneybounds... but I like doing them so... it might be soon. But this is super cute and I would definitely wear this outfit together.

Also side note: I did cut my hair... I did this outfit a while ago- but I'm just getting around to writing this! That's why my hair is long in the picture.

Dress 
This is my Mickey Mouse Carly dress from Lularoe. This is really comfy and I love how Mickey looks in this dress. I just think his expression is really cute and it's just cute!

Bottoms 
Wear whatever you are comfortable in. I wore it with Black Leggings in this look cause it was too cold outside to wear it without any bottoms... if I do this look in the summer- the dress is still long enough that I don't really feel the need for bottoms.

Sweater
This is my favorite summery cardigan right now. It's just so dang cute and it really makes an outfit! It's this rainbow Cardigan from the brand Ultra Flirt. I ordered this from Macys... I saw an ad for it and I just knew I needed to order it right then.

Accessories 
I have my adorable Betsey Johnson Watermelon backpack. I love that it's pastel and it just looks so summery.

I also wore a Blue Agate Necklace. This was a little bit of a long necklace for this look... but I really wanted to wear it anyway. And I wore my swarvorski crystal and Opal earrings. Opal is my birthstone and my favorite stone... so I love these.

And that is it for this look! Hope you guys like it!

TTFN!

Disney Favorites and News 5.16.19

Hey guys! Hope you're having a good week! Here are some of my favorite Disney Things for the week.

First off: This Target Exclusive Giant Thanos Pop. I'm trying to collect the first batch of Avengers Endgame Pops and when I saw that target had a GIANT Thanos... I had to have it! I have one other Giant Pop- the Rage Aggretsuko which is also a Target Exclusive. I like that this Thanos is a Bobblehead... so it's like a really funny giant statue of The Mad Titan... he's pretty cool. Also you guys should know I love Thanos!

Here we have Thanos alone and next to my Thor Pop for size comparison. 

I haven't bought this just yet... but I did see some really cool Toy Story 4 T-shirts at Hot Topic. I've been browsing through their website and they have a Tank Top with the Toy Story 4 logo in a light green that looks like Buzz Lightyear Green. It's really cute and I have a feeling I'm going to order it soon...or get it in an actual Hot Topic store... idk!

Speaking of Toy Story 4... I do really like the Funko Pop figures for that too. I may go on to collect them once the movie comes out. Right now I'm actually looking to get the Flocked Bunny and Duck. The Bunny is available at Target... and right now it's hard to get and it isn't shipping... and the Duck is available at FYE... which I haven't been to yet. If you happen to see the flocked ones I'd say to grab them because I think they'll be hard to get. I'm still going to search because... you can never really tell with Funko pops... and they're fun to hunt for. I saw a review of the Toy Story 4 Funko Pops right here if you want to check it out.

My boyfriend found a cool Mickey Varsity Jacket at the Disney Store this week! We didn't get it yet... but it is a nice jacket and I thought he looked really good in it. Here is the link on ShopDisney. If it's still available by the time you see it... basically it looks like a Sports Jacket and it has Mickey's face on the back. It does look kind of like something you might see on The Mickey Mouse Club... which is cool. I just really like this one.

Speaking of the Disney Store- Aspen got me an Aladdin Mug from there also! It's super cute and really pretty... and it's just a good mug. It's big and its easy to drink from too. It's great. I also kind of like that it looks like a hybrid of the animated movie and the Live Action Movie. It's just super pretty. And when you buy a mug right now you can get a Tiny Big Foot Plush for a dollar... and I kind of collect these! So again, my boyfriend Aspen got me Mr. Pricklepants to go along with it too!

My mug is in the wash right now... so I screenshotted from the website. 

Now onto the news. Peter Mayhew- the actor who is best known for playing Chewbaca in most of the Star Wars movies has passed away. Chewbaca is one of my favorite characters... Han Solo is my favorite- but of corse his best friend is a close second. He was 74.

In theme park news, it's been announced that the new Space themed restaurant at Epcot will be opening this year! It's rumored to be in Fall... probably around when their Food and Wine festival is going on... I'm not sure. But this sounds cool and Epcot is my favorite park... so I really think this is really good!

I think that is everything for this week! Let me know what you guys think about this! Hope you're having a great week!

Favorite Disney Princesses

Hey guys! I kind of want to do some of these "Favorite Disney" things in different categories so that maybe you guys can get to know me a little bit better... and since this blog is The Cozy Princess... let's start with Princesses!

My favorite of all favorites is Rapunzel. Tangled is the most beautiful of all the disney animated movies in my opinion and I just really really like it! I feel like I can kind of relate to Rapunzel. She's smart and fun... but she's still kind of shy and a little bit afraid of the outside world... which I feel like I can relate to. I'm adventurous- but cautious. Plus she's the more creative princess with her artwork- and I like to think I'm creative because I write. It's fun to see Rapunzel prove herself in the movie and I definitely like her a lot!

I know Moana isn't technically a Princess... but she kind of is so I'm going to include her on this list too... I feel like Moana is one of my favorite "Princess" movies. It's another very beautiful movie again... plus I love the music so much. Plus it's just actually a wonderful movie in general. I can watch this one over and over again.

Belle is another favorite of mine. I like books a lot- and Belle likes books. She's smarter and different than everyone in town. Beauty and The Beast is also just a really, really good movie... one of my favorites for sure. I just like Belle a lot.

My favorite Disney Movie is Aladdin... so of corse Jasmine is another favorite of mine. She's a great princess. Really all of the princesses are great... but I like that she sees Aladdin for who he really is... and she doesn't fall for his lies or anything either. Jasmine is really her own princess and I think she's very sassy and very in control. Plus I like that she even helps save Aladdin... she's just a great princess.

I like Ariel a lot too. I love Mermaids... and Ariel is probably my favorite Mermaid... so that's good too. I like The Little Mermaid a lot as a movie and I think it has a great soundtrack.

Another favorite of mine is not an actual official Disney Princess... but Ana from Frozen. I just think she's a super fun and funny character and she's really relatable. I love chocolate and I love that she just stuffs her face with chocolate in the one scene. I like that she wakes up and her hair is all messy and she's not your typical princess in that way. She's just a fun princess that definitely is one of my favorites!

I hope you guys like this post! I'm definitely going to do some more "Disney Favorites" like these. I like all of the other princesses too... but these are the ones that make my list.

TTFN!

Marvel Monday: The Avengers

I remember seeing the first Avengers movie in theaters. I hadn't liked any of the Marvel movies leading up to The Avengers at the time... well I saw Iron Man and didn't like it and I never gave anything else a chance at first... but I thought The Avengers looked good because it was all of them together... and that just seemed more exciting to me than their solo movies. And... they have a Hulk.

After seeing Endgame... this movie is really fun to watch! We did revisit the events in the first Avengers in Endgame and it was kind of fun to see everyone's first interactions with each other. They didn't get along... and the Tesseract kind of fueled off of that too. It is kind of a theme that they disagree- particularly Steve Rogers and Tony Stark... but they all fight well together and they do a great job. It was also fun to see Loki as a villain... I love Loki- but I do kind of miss his character as a villain! He destroyed New York and killed a lot of people though... so that's bad.

Another fun thing is the relationship between Natasha and Clint. Without spoiling Endgame... this is kind of the heart of their character arcs in the movie and I feel like in the series it is one of my favorite parts of all the Avengers movies. In this movie and in Age of Ultron... I really think their relationship kind of grounds the group. I thought it was a romantic love when I first saw this movie... but I like how it ended up as more of a brother/sister type of love. The series does a good job of showing how they always care about each other and they'll always be there for each other.

That's actually all I have to say right now. Overall great movie- really fun to watch especially after you just see the conclusion of this saga in Endgame. I can't wait to watch Age of Ultron for the next Marvel Monday!

Style Saturday: Belle Inspired Outfit Disneybound at Work

One thing I was super excited to try on this blog is Disneybounding! And I think I did a good job on this one. Disneybounding is when you kind of use colors and accessories to dress up as a disney character.

And I thought it would be fun to do one specifically for work because Disneybounding at Work is kind of difficult.

My top is from the brand Adriana Papel. It's sleeveless and high neck, but there are these ruffly sleeves on the shoulders. It's just super cute and it is yellow so it reminds me of what Belle wore in the Ballroom scene with The Beast... but super cute for spring.

I didn't want to overdo the accessories because I was at work... but I stuck with the "rose" type of theme. I used these gold, dangly heart earrings with cutout roses on them for the earrings. And I had a necklace that I got from Boxlunch. It has red flowers in sort of a potion-y bottle type of container. It's super cute... and it does look like the Enchanted Rose.

My Makeup was inspired by my Cozy Belle Rock Candy Figure. She has a rosy eye look and a dark neutral lip. I used Gingersnap from my Mac Warm Neutrals 15 palette and I put Saddle in the crease. My lip color is lighter than the rock candy... but I stuck with the neutral Lipsense color Praline with the Moisturizing Gloss on top. This is easy to wear to work and I feel like this is a princess-y color.

I also tied my hair in a side pony tail. If I wanted to do a "SUPER BELLE" look I would have used my bow clip that I have... but I didn't want to look too Belle-ish at work.

So that is everything! I hope you guys like this outfit! I would love to do more Disneybounding... maybe for different occasions too.

TTFN!

Disney Favorites And News This Week: 5.9.19

Not going to lie... I wrote this for Friday- but Life. I think this might be a Wednesday thing.

Alright #1 favorite this week is of corse Avengers Endgame. This is definitely worth the hype and worth seeing in theaters. I did a review on it... but man... I cried a lot! It was great. I want to see it again! It's probably worth seeing more than once in theaters.

I watched Ralph Breaks The Internet too! I did a movie Monday on it- you can check it out right here.I love the Bunny and Kitty in it and I actually got a Toybox Toy from The Disney Store with Vanellope, the Bunny and The Kitty. That is definitely a favorite for sure. My boyfriend actually has Ralph- so of corse I have Vanellope! I only have 2 of the Toybox toys right now. Vanellope and Dr.Strange... I do really like these but some of them look a little odd. I wanted the Thanos one because I love Thanos... but he just didn't look great.

I watched Zootopia too. I feel like I can watch this movie every time it's on... which is true of a lot of Disney Movies... but still. It's just so funny.

I've got some Disney News for you guys too! There was recently an Anniversary Party for Disney's Hollywood Studios and they previewed some new things. First off we have a new Logo for the park featuring Woody, BB8 and Mickey himself. I like the logo... however I do understand what a lot of people are saying about it... which is basically it's a little awkward as an actual logo. Seeing these 3 characters together makes sense in a commercial spot or on video... but with the different animation styles it doesn't look great on the sign itself.

I couldn't get a picture of the actual sign for this blog? Maybe Disney isn't allowing that or something... but here you can get the details of it... I'm curious. I don't think It's something I would think twice of while in the park itself... I don't think it would ruin my park photos... I still think it looks good... but I understand the criticism.

Another thing I think people are critical of: The Skyliner Gondola's having characters! So far there was an accidental reveal of one of the characters. You can check out this youtube video at 0:28 seconds. One of the covers covering the gondola's fell off and it showed what the gondola looked like. This one has Goofy, Pete, Clarabelle Cow and Horace Horsecollar. I think it's cute. I like that some of the Gondola's have characters on them and some do not. I think if I were a kid I'd be really excited to ride in one of the ones with the characters on it. Plus it's kind of fun to guess which color you're going to get for the Monorail and... I just like how this will be kind of exciting to wait and try to guess what you might get.

Also there will be a table service Barbecue restaurant in Toy Story Land called Roundup Rodeo Barbecue. The concept art looks really adorable. I know Disney has a lot of great Barbecue restaurants on property. I've heard people say Flame Tree Barbecue in Animal Kingdom is one of the best... and they have The Polite Pig... so this is a good announcement. I think it'll be really nice to have something else in Toy Story Land- especially since the main complaint I'm hearing about Toy Story Land is that there's no shaded areas. So this will be a nice break from the heat there.

A couple of different fireworks shows have been announced also! Disneyland Forever- which is the Fireworks show that Disneyland showed for their 60th celebration. It was apparently amazing and many Disneyland fans and park goers are excited for that. Walt Disney World also announced they will have a new fireworks shows for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party also! This will debut on August 16th- which is the first Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. I think people were kind of surprised about Disneyland Forever, but not as surprised as the Halloween Fireworks because they debuted the Happily Ever After Fireworks to replace the Wishes Fireworks show. These both sound really good!

There's a Pop Up Museum in Disneyland's Downtown Disney. It's basically a museum of cute Instagram Walls dedicated to Mickey Mouse. It looks really cute and you'll probably see it all over your instagram. It looks like fun- if they bring it to New York or Something I'm sure I'll go!

Hope you guys like this favorites!

What I'm excited for on Disney's New Streaming Service Disney+

I feel like I- like a lot of people- were a little skeptical about the new Disney streaming service. I love Disney- but I didn't know if I really wanted or needed another streaming service... but I do love all the Disney Movies and I'm really excited about all the new original content they're going to release also!

The first thing I'm actually super excited about is one that no one is really talking about- and that's a cooking show hosted by The Office's Angela Kinsey. It's called Be Our Chef- it's families cooking their favorite recipes against each other and coming up with a Disney Spin to their favorite dishes. They have other "reality" shows also from National Geographic. There's one hosted by Jeff Goldblum... which should be exciting because Jeff Goldblum. And there's one going behind the scenes of Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom... which sounds like a really fun show.

Monster's At Work is another one I'm really looking forward to. It's a cartoon that takes place after the events of Monster's Inc I believe... and the original voice cast is back... so John Goodman will play Sully and Billy Crystal will play Mike. Monster's Inc is my favorite Disney movie... so I'm really really excited to see how this one is!

There are also some new shows from Star Wars and Marvel! The Mandolorian is the big, exciting Star Wars show that will launch with the streaming service I believe. This is the first live action Star Wars show. I think they've announced a new animated Star Wars series also. There are also a few Marvel series that have been announced. There's a Loki series, Wanda and Vision, Falcon and The Winter Soldier... all starring the actors we see on the big screen... which sounds great. I really like Loki, and Falcon... I feel like Bucky, Wanda and Vision are all underused in the MCU- so it'll be exciting to see them in their own shows.

I'm really excited for all the movies too! Mostly the existing Disney movies more than the Original movies... I think the new Lady and the Tramp movie looks cute... but I never really watch the Netflix Original movies... so I feel like that's the least exciting thing any streaming service has to offer. I'm not sure what Disney movies will be available on the platform... I'm hoping A Goofy Movie will be. I just want to watch A Goofy Movie all day every day pretty much. Not really- but I'd watch it quite often with this access.

I know they're going to have a lot of the DCOM's also... so I'm really excited for that. I could watch The Luck of The Irish on St. Patrick's day... Under Wraps around Halloween... so much excitement. I hope that they include some of the older Disney Afternoon shows like the original Duck Tales, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers... maybe even the Aladdin TV Show. I'd love to see some of the ABC One Saturday Morning Cartoons too- like Pepper Ann and Recess. Recess is one of the best shows ever... so I really hope they have that on the service.

I'm sure I'll be watching and reviewing all of these shows as soon as I can... this is one thing I'm super excited about having this blog for. I'm excited about all the new announcements... and I'm just really excited to see what will happen with this huge library of incredible movies and shows that could be on this service... and the new ones they can create!

TTFN!

Movie Monday: Ralph Breaks The Internet

So every other week I'm going to watch a Disney movie and talk about it on this blog... and obviously I needed to start off with the movie that inspired this blog's name: Ralph Breaks The Internet! I know it's kind of strange to start these movie Monday's with a sequel... but this seemed the best way to start off this series of posts.

This movie is a very fun and funny sequel to Wreck It Ralph... and I think I like this one better. I like that this is more about Vanellope... and I really love all of the easter eggs and cameos from other Disney Characters... especially the cozy princesses.


One thing I noticed on the second viewing of this movie... IS THIS A MARVEL MOVIE? Sure we see Iron Man and Groot, but we also see Stan Lee and there are 2 post credits scenes... so that sounds like a Marvel Movie to me! Where were Ralph and Vanellope in the Infinity War?

It also does feel like an Infinity War level crossover with the Disney Princesses. This is the first feature length theatrical Disney Movie to include this many characters together... and the Princesses end up saving Ralph at the end... so that's super cool too.

The other thing I like about this movie is that the hero is the villain! Ralph started the virus based on his insecurities... but he saved himself and the internet at the end by addressing those insecurities and letting go. It was a good character arc for Ralph.

Vanellope's Princess song is also one of my favorite moments... especially the pop version of it at the end. It just really makes me laugh. I love it.

I also really liked the new characters. Knowsmore, Shank, Yess, The Pop Ups... all super funny and they were all great additions to this movie. The bad part about this however is that some of the characters from the original, like Felix and Calhoun- were almost non existant in the movie. They adopt the racers and then they check back in on the gang at the end for a joke... and that is it. I loved the new characters... but the old ones felt pushed out.

So this is one of my favorite recent disney movies... it's a really fun one and I had a great time seeing it in theaters and on this second viewing right now.

Everything I know about Star Wars Galaxy's Edge!

Happy Star Wars Day everyone! Today I had to talk about Star Wars Galaxy's Edge! This is opening this month in Disneyland and in August for Walt Disney World.

There are a lot of technical aspects about getting into the land that I don't know a lot about. I know Disneyland has a reservation system that I'm not exactly sure about. I don't think Walt Disney World has that same reservation system as of yet... I'm sure if you are going to Star Wars Galaxy's Edge... you can probably tell more about it than I can. I also know that there's no Fastpass for the ride that is opening yet. Not sure if and when they will do that... but right now there's no fastpasses for Star Wars Galaxy's Edge.

This land is probably going to be the most themed land yet. You're really going to feel like you are going to be a part of the Star Wars Story. In the Millennium Falcon Smuggler's Run ride you actually board the Millennium Falcon and you will be able to fly it and have a mission that you could pass or fail. And the end of the ride will show the falcon in good shape if you pass, or in rough shape if you failed. And with your magic band- the cast members at the park will interact with you based off of that. It sounds really fun and kind of cool too.

Plus the ride has a really advanced Animatronic named Hondo Ohnaka- a Space Pirate that I think gives you your mission... he really looks like a Cast Member in a costume... but he's an animatronic... which is pretty awesome.

There's also a Play Disney Parks App that will give you missions to follow and play inside of the land. This sounds like a fun idea for kids... maybe for when you're waiting in line. Personally... I'm not sure how much I would want to be on my phone at a theme park... but that's just me. Maybe this will make the wait go so much faster for you guys!

They have Coke and Water Bottles themed to the land. They have the star  wars writing on the bottles and the Coke Bottles are shaped kind of like BB8. This is a little detail they didn't really need to do... but I think it is super, super fun that they did that. It would be kind of fun to see them do this in other lands too. I'm not sure how- but it'd be fun if they had Toy Story or Pixar themed coke bottles anywhere.

They have a few dining options too. They're all quick service- but they have a lot of detail to them. Oga's Cantina will make you feel like you're in the Cantina from the movie... and that sounds like a lot of fun. They have another location too that I believe is like a kiosk... but it has more detail to it than most. And they'll have a popcorn location... which sounds great too! I think it has some spicy, sweet popcorn options... which is my favorite type of flavor combo.

The Rise of The Resistance Ride sounds amazing... but it will not open with the land itself. I believe it is Disney's Longest Attraction and it has a trackless ride system that pulls you through a lot of stuff... it sounds like it will be incredibly detailed and advanced and really fun. This one sounds incredible and I'm looking forward to knowing what it's like!

The land itself sounds incredible- even if you can't get on the ride... it seems like there's a lot to explore, a lot to eat and a lot to do.

May The Force Be With You!
