A Beautiful Rough Draft of Tokyo DisneySea

As we finish up 2017, I wanted to give you something a little special. This rendering is the fourth in a series of work by the great Disney Imagineer Peter Ellenshaw. As would surely be expected looking at the end result, Tokyo DisneySea concept art is as stunning as the park. The Imagineers were given the proper budget through the Oriental Land Company to do the job well- and my bet is based on the financial return, that decision was never regretted. 

Certainly, there is not a more stunning Asian park to be found. Not Shanghai, not Hong Kong, not the sure to be happening with the Twenty First Century Fox acquisition, the Magic Kingdom in India.

Announced: Disney Buys Fox Assets

It's happened! Disney just announced its bought assets from Fox Studios for over $52 Billion. This means the House of Mouse now owns the original Star Wars films, Avatar, the Simpsons, and a huge host of classic films. An even bigger powerhouse with Pixar and Marvel already in the family.

Robert Iger will stay until 2021- or a suitable replacement is found. The man will go down in Disney history as acquiring the most expansion collection of properties ever seen. More coming.
