Skywalking Through Neverland

  I miss Eddie Murphy!   Haunted Mansion is in my top three attractions at the Disney parks. I enjoyed Eddie Murphy’s Haunted Mansion (2003). I absolutely loved Muppets Haunted Mansion . We have Haunted Mansion Christmas tree ornaments! Can you imagine how excited I was to see this new iteration of HAUNTED MANSION ?   It saddens me to say this version lost me from the beginning. It was very hard to root for the protagonist when you think he’s a jerk. Let’s back up here and summarize the uninspired plot. Single mother Gabbie ( Rosario Dawson ) and her nine-year old son Travis (Chase Dillon) move into the mansion with the hopes of turning it into a bed and breakfast. Very quickly they realize the house is haunted! However, they never appear frightened when freaky occurrences happen such as when a suit of armor suddenly appears right behind them.

At San Diego Comic-Con 2023, I attended my first Star Trek Hall H panel - an interesting affair due to the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes. I was not expecting to see any actors from our favorite new Star Trek series like Strange New Worlds , but I did expect to hear from a director or producer. However, the panel began with one moderator - Scott Mantz (Film Critic, Variety ) - and he remained the single person on stage sharing new footage from upcoming Star Trek series.  Scott began by explaining his Star Trek super-fandom which began at the age of five, then went on to warn us that this would be a content-heavy panel. Indeed it was! Much of this content you can see now, so I’ll share with you what we learned, and any links to content you can view right now.   The excitement levels of the crowd started on a high with a beautifully edited sequence that mixed all the matching scenes from The Original Series , The Next Generation, Star Trek (2009), and all the other Star Trek series
