Orlando Theme and Resort Parks Closing Due To Hurricane Matthew

20150909_071357(0)

It has to be pretty serious when Universal Orlando and Walt Disney World close their parks in Florida due to Hurricane Matthew which has devastated The Bahamas among other places. Thousands of people visit there annually and its a good thing that both parks are not taking any chances with the safety of their visitors and employees. I am hoping for the best down there for the full-time residents who call the region their home.

Tunes Tuesday – Disney’s Frozen “Let It Go”

Sometimes we have to let stuff go. In order to go on in life we have to put things aside and behind us to have a better life. This treasure from the movie “Frozen” helps put things in perspective.

Shakira – Try Everything – From The Movie “Zootopia”

This is a great song from the Disney animated movie “Zootopia” and perhaps we need to try everything even though we might fail at it. Keep on going good people.

Movie Of The Night – Finding Nemo – A Modern Disney Classic

Zootopia, A Great Modern Disney Flick

Ninety percent of the world is prey and 10 percent is predator at least that is what the movie Zootopia says about the world it exists in. I tend to say that is about what it is in the real world. Some of us are prey, some of us are predators. Can we live with each other? I don’t know but what I do know is that predators can make life hard for the weak and defenseless.

Zootopia is a delightful movie with a lot of social messages. It’s about opportunity, equality, cooperation, family, love and peace. The core of this movie is the dream of a female rabbit wanting to make the world a better place. I can dig that. Animals coexisting with one another in a place where the balance of life is a part of its utopia. This movie has a great cast and is very well done. I find it better than “Frozen” and “UP”.

On a personal note: After spending a few days in the Universal Studios ecosphere I felt like I betrayed them somehow.
