Meet Jim

I have been a Disney enthusiast my whole life, appreciating the films, parks, and history of the company, and the amazing individuals who built it. While I keep up with the current Disney and Universal media news, my focus is on sharing the rich content created by Disney and its storytellers, including Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, history, and trivia. I also sprinkle in some Harry Potter magic and holiday cheer.
