She states, “Passing around a brute beam service’s phone series recently became a shameless protocol among Manhattan’s private-school set during open break. The use asks who referred we before they even take your call. It’s insider believe that really few have and share carefully.”

Disney Signs with EA for STAR WARS Video Games

Disney isn’t going to let a small thing like shutting down LucasArts stop them from putting out new Star Wars video games. Today, Walt Disney Company announced around press recover that they have sealed an disdainful understanding with EA to rise and tell new games from a Star Wars universe.

While that does not expected meant a games LucasArts was operative on will see a light of day, it does meant new Star Wars games are on a way, and presumably earlier than we competence design (see: before 2015’s Star Wars Episode VII). EA, in a corner announcement, specifed that they’ll have games travelling “consoles, PCs, tablets, mobile and more,” and emitted that in-house developers DICE and Visceral will rise new games in a Star Wars universe regulating a Frostbite 3 engine, in further to BioWare, who will continue their work there (following adult on Knights of a Old Republic and a Old Republic MMO).

“This agreement demonstrates a joining to formulating peculiarity diversion practice that expostulate a recognition of a Star Wars authorization for years to come,” pronounced John Pleasants, Co-President of Disney Interactive in a press release. “Collaborating with one of a world’s premier diversion developers will concede us to move an extraordinary portfolio of new Star Wars titles to a fans around a world.”

Merida’s Disney Princess Controversial Makeover – Is ‘Brave’ Heroine Really …

Burning Question: Will a redesign of Disney’s Merida negatively impact my daughter’s development? Will a remarkable coming of a thinner, sexier chronicle of a animation harm a girl’s self-esteem? — Clara K.

Short answer: Yep.

In box you’ve been vital during a bottom of a loch, a heroine of a charcterised film “Brave” got a diminutive bit of a makeover recently. The feisty Scottish archer lass, who debuted during a healthy fighting weight final year, now, inexplicably, has a a sultrier pout, a skinnier waist and a some-more divulgence décolleté. (Stay classy, imagineers.)

The change was denounced this month, to coordinate with Merida’s central crowning as Disney’s 11th-ever princess. Or something.

Whatever. Child growth experts are not amused, and conjunction am I.

“This one impression might not do any repairs to a girl’s psychological development, per se,” child growth consultant Dr. Robyn Silverman tells me. “But Merida joins a fusillade of thin, moist characters for girls, creation her nonetheless another facet of a sexed-up, thinned down messaging.”

Silverman points out that a strange Merida “was dear for her dauntless spirit, her singular demeanour and her disinterest in intrigue as her ‘goal’ in life. Her allure was not physical–which sent a clever summary to girls that they could be who they are– and still be beautiful, dauntless and confident.

“This redesign seems to hang a block brace into a turn hole.”

Or only a skinnier physique into a size-2 gown.

However, only since your daughter’s psychological development — say, a expansion of her demur during around age 4 — won’t be affected, doesn’t meant that Merida’s redesign isn’t dangerous. It is — to a girl’s self-esteem. Experts see those as dual opposite things. But both are crucial.

“I would contend that Brave is directed during kids ages 5 to 10,” mulls Betsy Brown Braun, also a childhood function and growth specialist. “That’s primary domain for being influenced in terms of physique image. we don’t consider this one makeover is going to be earth ruinous all by itself, though it’s an component that contributes to a altogether picture.

“We’re saying physique design issues with children as immature as 7 years aged — immature children who contend they’re on a diet or that they consider they’re fat. There’s a lot of information display that children that age already brand with a saucy, voluptuous image.”

Such as, say, a new, hot-cha-cha Merida? Let’s wish not.

Rich Manhattan moms shamelessly sinecure infirm debate guides so their kids can cut prolonged lines.

They are 1 percenters who are 100 percent despicable.

Some abounding Manhattan moms have figured out a approach to cut a prolonged lines during Disney World — by employing infirm people to poise as family members so they and their kids can burst to a front, The Post has learned.

The “black-market Disney guides” run $130 an hour, or $1,040 for an eight-hour day.

“My daughter waited one notation to get on ‘It’s a Small World’ — a other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours,” crowed one mom, who hired a infirm beam by Dream Tours Florida.

“You can’t go to Disney but a debate concierge,’’ she sniffed. “This is how a 1 percent does Disney.”

The lady pronounced she hired a Dream Tours beam to chaperon her, her father and their 1-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter by a park in a motorized scooter with a “handicapped” pointer on it. The organisation was sent true to an auxiliary opening during a front of any attraction.

Disney allows any guest who needs a wheelchair or motorized scooter to move adult to 6 guest to a “more available entrance.”

The Orlando party mecca warns there “may be a watchful duration before boarding.” But a accord among upper-crust moms who have used a pretence is that it’s value a cost.

Passing around a brute service’s phone series has turn a shameless protocol among Manhattan’s private-school set, a source said. The use asks who referred we even holding your call.

“Who wants a speed pass when we can use your black-market disabled beam to by-pass a lines all together?” she said.

“So when you’re doing it, you’re affirming that we are one of a absolved insiders who has and shares this information.”

Ryan Clement runs Dream Tours Florida with partner Jacie Christiano, whom a abounding Manhattan mom indicated was her family’s guide.

A operative phone series for Christiano couldn’t be found, and Clement refused to put The Post by to her. A summary left on Facebook was not immediately returned by Christiano.

Clement denied that his gal companion uses her incapacity to bypass lines. He pronounced she has an auto-immune commotion and concurred that she uses a scooter on a job.

Disney did not lapse steady requests for comment.



Disney Marches Higher After Results But Shares No Longer Cheap

Image representing The Walt Disney Company as ...

Quick Take

  • Disney’s flagship network ESPN ESPN is heading a enlargement and offsetting debility in a broadcasting business.
  • The Disney Channel continues to be a company’s biggest code globally, and Disney Junior is now accessible in 400 million homes worldwide.
  • Investments in parks resorts are profitable off as a business saw aloft assemblage and per capita guest spend in a new quarter.
  • We design alleviation in a gaming multiplication as Disney leverages Star Wars authorization and launches Infinity.

Disney purebred altogether income enlargement of tighten to 10% in Q2 mercantile 2013, that is considerable for a association of a size. It essentially operates in a mature marketplace of North America, that accounts for three-fourths of a sum revenues. As a result, a company’s opening is essentially tied to a state of a U.S. economy and altogether peculiarity of a constructed content.

It is considerable to see Disney demonstrating enlargement opposite all a vital segments, solely for a debility in broadcasting. ESPN continued to lead a approach with enlargement in both promotion and associate fee. ABC broadcasting saw some debility due to vigour on ratings, though Disney’s possess TV stations did pretty well. Its parks resorts business benefited from aloft assemblage and guest spending flourishing a handling income by a towering 73%.

Overall, we feel that given Disney’s code strength, successful franchises and marketplace presence, a enlargement will continue to find support from aloft associate fees, licensing, syndication and enlargement of thesis parks.

Cable Networks Getting Support From ESPN Disney Channel

ESPN, that brought tighten to $11 billion in revenues for Disney in 2012 as per a estimates, continued a enlargement in a second entertain of mercantile 2013. The network’s ratings have bounced behind after a duration of debility seen in a past integrate of quarters, ensuing in promotion income enlargement of 4%. For a 3rd entertain of a mercantile year, ESPN’s ad revenues enlargement are humming along during some-more than 10%. In further to this, a network’s associate cost continued to grow due to aloft subscription fee.

ESPN is benefiting from multi-year programming contracts that mention annual cost increase, postulated high approach for sports programming, rising sports programming costs and a marketplace heading position. However going forward, a enlargement in a subscription cost is approaching to delayed due to vigour from pay-TV use providers and approaching foe from NBC and Fox Fox who are formulation to launch national sports networks to contest with ESPN.

Apart from ESPN, a Disney Channel is doing good and is a company’s biggest tellurian brand. Disney Junior reaches 400 million households in 166 countries, and a branded products are flourishing fast with sell sales approaching to boost by 80% amounting to $1.5 billion in mercantile 2013.

Ratings Pressure On Broadcasting Continues

Disney’s broadcasting business saw a decrease in boost due to aloft cost write-offs for underperforming shows, boost in primary time programming costs and a decrease in ad revenues for ABC broadcasting network. The decrease in a ad revenues was driven by reduce ratings, partially equivalent by aloft ad pricing and enlargement in online advertising.

The viewership for a U.S. broadcasting networks is disappearing and Disney’s ABC is no different. This physical decrease is being fueled by a recognition of wire programming and increasing foe from choice video platforms such as Netflix, Amazon and others. Unlike broadcasting networks, a lot of wire networks concentration on sold genre, so formulating a constant spectator base. According to investigate organisation Magna Global, a altogether ad commitments for TV’s upfront marketplace for a stream year could boost by 2%. While a ad sales for a broadcasting networks will decrease by 2%, wire networks will see a enlargement of 5% in their ad associated revenues.

The list next shows a viewership change for a biggest broadcasting networks in a U.S. for a stream season.

We guess that ABC Network’s normal viewership has declined from 3.7 million in 2007 to small underneath 3 million in 2012. This is something that ABC can fix. Disney has done some acquisitions in new years, essentially catering to a film business. However, a association could potentially precedence these acquired franchises or take impulse from them and broach well-scripted programs on ABC Network. The network seems to be doing good among women aged between 18 and 34, though it could enhance a interest to other demographics by introducing applicable programs.

Gaming Segment Could Show Strength

Disney recently announced a gaming agreement with Electronic Arts to broach and tell several new games formed on a recently acquired Star Wars franchise. Under a terms of a deal, Disney will keep rights to rise new titles within mobile, social, inscription and online gaming categories as good as a right to rise new titles for a Asian gaming market. Star Wars has a clever tellurian code and a diversion formed on this authorization could hoard success for Disney.

In further to this, a association skeleton to broach a “Infinity” diversion for gaming consoles, PCs and mobile phones this year. The plan is large and Disney will demeanour to spin around a waste of a gaming multiplication with this launch. Infinity is identical to a Skylanders diversion launched by Activision Blizzard in late 2011, and judging from Skylander’s success, there is a good possibility that Infinity can boost Disney’s value by as most as 5% (see What Potential Does Infinity Hold For Disney?). That’s a lot deliberation that Disney doesn’t get any approach financial value from a gaming business, that is now regulating losses.

Our cost guess for Disney stands during $66, that is roughly in line with a marketplace price.

Visiting Walt Disney World Without Kids

4 views - published on May 14th, 2013 in Disney News tagged , , ,

There are 5 Disney resorts and 11 Disney thesis parks on a planet, and until recently we had no seductiveness in visiting any of them ever again. we was lifted in California and desired Disneyland, a West Coast outpost, when we was of Disneyland-going age. Then we grew up. My ambience matured, as one’s ambience is ostensible to. In a final 20 years we have entered Disneyland usually once, out of parental duty, and had never set feet in Walt Disney World. But we competence be a exception. About a third of a 51 million annual visitors to Walt Disney World, that includes a company’s climax jewel, Disney’s Magic Kingdom, are adults but tykes in tow.

I even know a few.

It turns out that copiousness of my worldly friends can’t get adequate of a The Most Magical Place on Earth—a illusion I’ve detected usually recently, now that everybody posts their vacation skeleton on Facebook. “Oh, my gosh, we adore Disney!” gushes Marie Bostwick, a best-selling writer who once adult and changed to Mexico City for a journey of it. we was astounded to learn that she and her husband, a corporate authority (they now live in Connecticut), have visited Disney dozens of times—with their kids and without. “You only have to welcome a cheesiness,” Marie says, before she starts going on about fireworks displays, rides, live entertainment, and lazing by a pool with a book. And it isn’t only that a place offers something for everyone, she tells me: At Disney, one is authorised to welcome one’s middle child, a happy trusting who is full of consternation and not fearful to demeanour like a dork. It’s an escape, a kind of retrogression therapy set to a balance of “It’s a Small World.”

Still…is it value a trade-off? There is an whole planet’s value of art, architecture, and enlightenment to discover, and time off is precious. Why would any adult select to exhaust it in a place compared with screeching toddlers, heartless lines, common food, and a majority of twee? we can know that there’s a lot to do and even that some people wish to be kids again. But we like being an adult. And we can never utterly let go: we obsessively demeanour for cracks in a facade, and get heedful during a thought of vouchsafing corporate America manipulate my emotions.

However, we am an big chairman and can see that there competence be some value in cultivating a some-more carefree, trusting self. So I’ve motionless to spend 6 days and 5 nights within a 40-square-mile proportions of a Walt Disney World Resort. I’ve asked Marie to be my Tinker Bell for a initial few days, trace me with pixie dirt and enlivening happy thoughts. Then she’ll lapse home, and my husband, a world-weary publisher and world-class skeptic, will join me. As for a 13-year-old son, it’s midterms week during school. I’ve reluctantly left him behind.

Just off a craft from New York, on a quell during Orlando International Airport, we house Disney’s Magical Express train use for a place where dreams come true. Okay, Disney, we think, as a wheels start branch and an course video starts to play, work your magic. we am flattering certain this won’t be easy.
