Did you know that long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away The Walt Disney Company made movies? Yup, it’s true. Before we all loved the Disney theme parks they had this little side business making movies. In the past few years they have gone back to their roots. News is breaking almost daily about new movies getting green-lit by Disney. These movies include new animated features, new live action features, live-action remakes of Disney classics, sequels, prequels, as well as Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars movies. We need a Disney movie scorecard to keep track of them. You are in luck! I have put together a scorecard of sorts detailing all the Disney movies rumored for release in the next several years.
The first set of movies are those with at least a partial release date.
