Disney Confidential – Disney Ticket Prices Go Up Again August 2010
Hey Guys and Gals Anonymouse here. I have some bad gossip news today…
Routinely every year Disney Ticket Prices have gone up at the beginning of August. Many people take advantage of the no expiration option on tickets and buy early to avoid the hike each year. I have been checking around on the internet to see if there has been an official announcement, but there is nothing as of yet…
Some of the Disney forums have people asking questions, and my Mousesavers Newsletter stated they will be going up the first Sunday in August.
So take this with a grain of salt they have gone up consistently in the past so expect them to go up again. I will post an official announcement when I receive one.

Disney Confidential – Disney Gargoyles Movie, Marvel Runaways, and More
Hello Ladies and Gents, Anonymouse here delivering you the best in Disney Gossip.
I have for you a little movie news for today:
It seems Disney has in the works a live action movie revolving around their classic animated series Gargoyles from the 90′s. Nothing is written as of yet and there is no news on who will play in this movie, but as more details be released I am sure Chip or myself will post it.
Note – You can still catch Gargoyles on Disney XD very early in the morning so if you missed it back in the 90′s you could always DVR it to get an idea of what you are in for.
In Marvel Movie News, Marvel will begin production on the big screen adaptation Runaways in January 2011. They are waiting for the director Peter Sollett to get free from his other movie Scott Pilgrim vs. The World to begin production. I would expect to here a list of cast members coming soon.
Finally has anyone seen the banter between Edward Norton & Marvel this past week? Marvel seems to have dropped Norton from playing the Hulk in the upcoming Avengers movie and now he is whining about it. Marvel is going with smaller named actors and trying to keep costs down..Can you blame them in this economic times?
I mean look at me I am having to consolidate 3 articles in one just to save the webspace..
Haha just kidding.
Well thats all I got for now!

New Disney Resort Aulani in Hawai’i Completes Vertical Construction
Signifying completion of vertical construction, Walt Disney Parks & Resorts held a ‘topping-off blessing’ ceremony for Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, Ko Olina, Hawai‘i. Honoring the resort’s spiritual relationship with the land, the topping-off ceremony highlighted the resort’s progress toward its scheduled opening in fall 2011.
Adjacent to historical sites on the western side of O‘ahu, Aulani will be located on 21-acres of oceanfront property in the Ko Olina Resort & Marina development. The twin towers of the 15-story resort contain 359 guest rooms and 481 villas. Each tower is strategically angled to provide commanding views of the ocean, mountains and the magnificent grounds.
The resort is designed with meetings and incentives in mind. Meeting professionals will discover more than 50,000 square feet of ballroom/meeting space and event lawns, including a 14,000-square-foot conference center. Aulani is a secluded paradise in a beautiful island setting, yet close enough to Waikiki to enjoy activities nearby. The resort is also convenient to Honolulu International Airport.
Aulani was conceived as a celebration of Hawai?i’s history, beauty and cultural diversity. With the help of cultural leaders from the Leeward Coast and the greater Hawaiian communities, Disney Imagineers have gone to great lengths to unlock the stories of Hawai?i.
