‘Minnie’s the Wizard of Dizz’ on DVD on February 5

‘Minnie’s the Wizard of Dizz‘ will be released on DVD on February 5, 2013. And that, in a nutshell, is all we know. The news comes courtesy of Amazon.com which has recently begun accepting pre-orders for the title. According to cursory searches on the interwebs, there is nary a mention of it short of release dates in the mideast, often referring to it as ‘Wizards of Dizz’ [sic].

Apparently, and agreeably so, it will be a ‘Mickey Mouse Clubhouse’ special which will presumably be announced and air on Disney Channel and Disney Junior ahead of its DVD release. One could surmise from the title that this will be a take on the L. Frank Baum The Wizard of Oz series. The popular children’s series has already tackled Alice in Wonderland with its ‘Adventures in Wonderland’ episode.

Also lending credence to theory and adding a bit of suspicion to the subject matter and timing is Walt Disney Studios’ own Oz the Great and Powerful prequel to the series of books, which will bow into theaters a month later on March 8, 2013.

We will provide more information on the ‘Minnie’s the Wizard of Dizz’ special and DVD as it becomes available to us.

ABC’s ‘Day of Giving’ Expands to Include Radio Disney, Disney Store, More Shows

The Disney/ABC Television Group’s “Day of Giving” continues to grow, with ABC Family, SOAPnet, Radio Disney, “General Hospital,” “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” and the Disney Stores set to join previously announced network and syndicated programming spanning News, Daytime, Primetime and Late-Night this Monday, November 5, 2012. The “Day of Giving” will encourage the tens of millions of viewers and customers engaged throughout the day to help those impacted by Hurricane Sandy.

In commenting on the additional participants to the day-long response, Anne Sweeney, co-chair, Disney Media Networks and president, Disney-ABC Television Group, said: “The response to Monday’s ‘Day of Giving’ has been nothing short of amazing, and I’m thrilled that ABC Family, SOAPnet, Radio Disney, ‘General Hospital,’ ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire’ and the Disney Stores across the nation have joined the cause. We are going to do everything possible to encourage our viewers and customers to help those who are dealing with Sandy’s devastation.”

ABC Family and SOAPnet will engage their audiences throughout Monday with “Day of Giving” PSAs on air and on their websites, and through social media outreach.

Radio Disney will integrate “Day of Giving” messaging into their programming on Monday and air audience appropriate PSAs throughout the day on air and on the Radio Disney Facebook page.

Several stars of “General Hospital” have recorded specific “Day of Giving” PSA spots that will air in the show and throughout network programming on Monday, encouraging viewers to get engaged and take part.

“Who Want To Be A Millionaire” will integrate “Day of Giving” messaging and PSA call-outs into Monday’s program.

Disney Store and DisneyStore.com will support the national “Day of Giving” by reaching millions of Guests through in-store PSAs, social marketing efforts, as well as email and DisneyStore.com home page presence providing Guests with information on how to make a donation.

Previously Announced Participation:

“Good Morning America” will start the “Day of Giving” by dedicating the entire 8:00 a.m. hour to raising money for Sandy relief efforts. ABC News anchors, reporters and employees will band together to encourage people to donate to the American Red Cross.

The torch will pass to “LIVE with Kelly and Michael,” where the show will integrate “Day of Giving” messaging into their highly anticipated Halloween episode (which was moved due to the impact of the storm).

The ladies of “The View” will discuss the “Day of Giving” and encourage their audience to donate to the American Red Cross relief efforts, and “The Chew” will do the same.

“Katie,” which dedicated the entire hour on Wednesday, October 31 to Hurricane Sandy, will take up the mantle of the “Day of Giving” and engage viewers in these relief efforts as well.

The ABC Owned Stations and local ABC affiliates will integrate “Day of Giving” messaging into their local news throughout the day, calling on their local communities to help those impacted by the storm.

“World News with Diane Sawyer” will participate with messaging around “Day of Giving” and the continuing impact of the storm.

“Dancing with the Stars” is planning to personalize sections of the live show Monday night with “Day of Giving” messaging.

“Nightline” will devote time to the “Day of Giving” and the impact of Hurricane Sandy, and “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” which has been airing from Brooklyn all this week and encouraging viewers to give to the Red Cross to help rebuild the impacted areas, will end the “Day of Giving” on Monday with special messaging and calls to action for Kimmel’s viewers.

This unprecedented response joins The Walt Disney Company’s existing relief and rebuilding efforts announced yesterday by Robert A. Iger, chairman and CEO, The Walt Disney Company, which include the recently announced $2 million cash commitment to those severely impacted by Hurricane Sandy. One million dollars will be donated to the American Red Cross for immediate, critical assistance, and another $1 million will be designated for organizations working on rebuilding efforts. In addition, employee eligible donations to organizations involved in disaster relief will be matched, dollar for dollar, by Disney Employee Matching Gifts: A Program of The Walt Disney Company Foundation.

ESPN will be running public service announcements to engage their viewers in Hurricane Sandy relief efforts throughout its programming, including coverage of The New York City Marathon and Monday Night Football.

Disney/ABC Television Group has already developed and implemented a deep portfolio of assets to generate awareness and support for the victims of Hurricane Sandy which have been shared across all of the DATG platforms. American Red Cross PSAs have been running on ABC owned stations and affiliates throughout the country since Tuesday. From “Jimmy Kimmel Live” to “The View,” “The Chew,” “Good Morning America” and “Katie,” calls to action have been incorporated into programming, letting millions of viewers know how they can help. In addition, American Red Cross online banner ads have been on abc.com and abcnews.com.; Disney Channel and Radio Disney are running audience-appropriate American Red Cross PSAs; and last night the “CMA Awards” opened with a dedication to those affected by Hurricane Sandy, and included information on how our ABC audience could contribute.

Oswald the Lucky Rabbit RFRO Viral Campaign Launched for ‘Epic Mickey 2′

It appears as though Disney has been running an extended television advertisement in some markets (see below) in which a textboook conspiracy theorist from an agency known only as RFRO flaunts his latest find: a series of lit windows across a series of high-rise buildings in Nashua Massachusetts, part of the Greater Boston area, which — when viewed at the proper angle as evidenced by the photograph — form a pattern very familiar to many Disney enthusiasts: that of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.

The advertisement ends with directing viewers to visit rfro.org, home of the ‘Rabbit Field Research Organization’ which displays an animated GIF (or at least a fraction of it) before re-directing visitors to the YouTube channel of TheManWhoSeesRabbits.

There we see the initial ad identified as case #PR0021 – City Lights, as seen here:

Also currently available are a few other ‘cases’ of rabbit sightings such as #P203 Cell; #TS242 Rain; #IE054 Traffic Light; and #NE132 Parking Lot. It’s likely that the letters and numbers, or combinations thereof, have some meaning but it’s unknown to us at this time.

Also unknown to us is the intent of the new campaign, other than to generate some sort of viral buzz and given the timing, buzz meant for ‘Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two’ which features Oswald the Lucky Rabbit as co-op play and will be available beginning November 18.

‘Star Tours: The Adventures Continue’ at Tokyo Disneyland to Open May 2013

‘May the 7th be with you,’ is probably something you won’t be hearing a lot of next year, but just a few days after The Walt Disney Company announced its intentions to acquire Lucasfilm to produce new Star Wars films, the Tokyo Disney Resort has announced it will hold its grand opening for ‘Star Tours: The Adventures Continue’ on May 7, 2013 — just a few days after ‘Star Wars Day’ on May the 4th.

At a price tag just north of US $87 million, the updated attraction brings the same 3D randomized experience to Tokyo Disneyland as it has already done for both Disneyland in Anaheim, California and Disney’s Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

‘Star Tours: The Adventures Continue’ is just one more reason the Tokyo Disney Resort will just get happier as it begins celebrating ‘The Happiness Year’ in April 2013, commemorating its 30th anniversary. The attraction will offer FASTPASS and will have a height restriction of 41″ (105 cm) and an age minimum of 3.

Listen up, soldiers: the kitten whispers and tickle fights stop now. With one of the smallest production runs outside of its 25th Anniversary collection, Disney Store is now offering a 17″ collector’s doll version of Sergeant Tamora Jean Calhoun. Already equipped with the most tragic backstory ever, this faithful replica of the new character voiced by Jane Lynch as seen in the ‘Hero’s Duty’ game in Wreck-It Ralph is limited to an edition size of just 1000 pieces.

Complete in her own deluxe collector’s edition box with display stand, the Sgt.

At just 1000 pieces, chances are she may be sold out or close to it by the time you read this, so if you’re interested in purchasing the doll, you should do so as soon as possible.

‘Iron Man 3′ Hi-Res Still Features Mandarin Deep in Thought

Walt Disney Studios and Marvel Studios have shared with us a brand new still from Iron Man 3 which features Sir Ben Kingsley as Mandarin. Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3 pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?

The still has been added to the beginning of our gallery below. As always, click on any of the thumbnails to see the image in its larger version. If the resize arrow appears, you can click it to see the image in its original resolution.
