This week, we’re rolling out the red carpet for the First-Ever Thundie Awards, our delightfully ridiculous award show honoring films, television, and theme parks! 🎥🎢📺 From the FOMO Event of the Year to the Most Interesting Antagonist, no category is too absurd for this celebration of pop culture fun. 🏅✨

We also dive into some major Disney news, including the live-action adaptation of Tangled currently in development 🏰🌸 and the bittersweet announcement of the impending closure of DINOSAUR 🦖.

Plus, with Mufasa: The Lion King roaring into theaters soon 🦁🎶, we pitch our ideas for what other Disney and Pixar dads deserve their own prequel spinoffs—because let’s face it, some of them have stories to tell! 🛶🍳🌟

Grab your popcorn and get ready for laughs, debates, and more than a few questionable Thundie winners. It’s all happening on this week’s episode of the Big Thunder Podcast! 🎉🎧
