| Would Disney Remake This | 19 Oct 2023 | 00:50:55 | |
Disney has been remaking their cinematic classics for many years now. These remakes have gained popularity in recent years and are part of Disney's strategy to capitalize on their extensive catalog. Disney remakes serve several purposes. They allow Disney to introduce classic stories to a new generation of audiences, often with updated visuals and contemporary themes. They also provide an opportunity to monetize existing intellectual property and expand the Disney brand. Many of these remakes come from the company's large catalog of full-featured films like, The Parent Trap, Freaky Friday, Herbie, and The Absent-Minded Professor. Recently we have seen an increase in the remaking of many animated classics into live-action adaptations, like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin. But the remakes have faced criticism for being overly reliant on nostalgia and not offering much that is new or innovative. But are there movies that Disney would not remake? In this episode, Rachel and Jeremiah are going to tackle this exact question. They go over 10 classic Disney films that they believe the company will not try to remake. Hear their thoughts about each picture and why they think a remake is not going to happen.

| Indiana Jones Movie Series Reviewed | 13 Jan 2022 | 00:57:16 | |
When Raiders of the Lost Ark came out in 1981, it redefined the action/adventure genre in the film industry, and spawned the popular franchise we come to know and love today: Indiana Jones. Many people have watched the existing four films in the series, and generally enjoyed them very very much. However, the self-proclaimed "film fanatic" Blake, has never watched the series in its entirety. In this week's episode, after watching all four Indiana Jones movies in under 36 hours, Blake discusses the films with JJ, talking about their enjoyment of each film, what they liked, and what they didn't like. And, as always, they rank them in the end and Blake gives his overall thoughts on his first viewing of the Indiana Jones films. Buckle up tightly now—some hot Indiana Jones takes may be appearing in this episode. Have you watched the Indiana Jones films? What were your thoughts on them? Did you maybe, perhaps, disagree with one of our takes? Let us know, and connect with us at Mouse House Weekly, we'd love to discuss with you!

| Food Allergies at Disney | 23 Sep 2021 | 01:04:30 | |
Food allergies can be fatal, so being able to travel to the Disney (and Universal) parks and safely eat is a major concern for families with food allergies. This reality is known all too well for Colby, who has allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, and peas. This week Colby sits down with his dad, Darrell, and mom, Kari, talk about how they discovered Colby had severe food allergies, and what their food experience has been over the last 16 years. The first half of the episode serves as an educational breakdown of food allergies so those who have never experienced it, might better understand the importance of being aware of food allergies. In the second half of the episode, the family shares their experiences at Disneyland, California Adventure, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Universal Studios Orlando. In short, their first experience at Disneyland and Universal Studios Hollywood was excellent and proved that both parks care deeply about their guests, and have trained their staff well to make sure guests are safe. Subsequent visits to the park have proven the first experiences were not a fluke.

| Disneyland Draft Day | 08 Apr 2021 | 01:05:39 | |
In celebration of Disneyland opening up soon, and with March Madness recently concluding, Blake and JJ have decided to do a draft day of Disneyland attractions and restaurants! Blake and JJ will take turns choosing 20 of the best Disneyland attractions and restaurants that must be visited in our ideal best trip to Disneyland. When an attraction or restaurant has already been chosen, it cannot be selected by the other host. Listen as they fight for the best attractions, talk about the best parts of the attractions and why we chose them, and of course, just missing Disneyland as a whole. With our completed drafts, we've organized them into a "schedule" of sorts; when we would go to each attraction in the day; we've posted these in our Facebook group, where you can determine which list is better!
