Disney Movie Sequels and the Super Bowl!

#264 The Walt Disney Company recently announced major cutbacks and layoffs but also teased 3 new animated movie sequels that we weren't asking for -- Toy Story 5, Frozen 3, and Zootopia 2.  Catron and Ryan reveal the plots for these new movies and what they think could happen.  

There's also a new Avatar experience coming to Disneyland and Pecos Bill's at Walt Disney World will likely be rethemed to a Tiana restaurant.  Maybe you will be able to get beignets and dole whips or perhaps a king cake milkshake!
