"Adults are interested if you don't play down to the little 2 or 3 year olds or talk down. I don't believe in talking down to children. I don't believe in talking down to any certain segment. I like to kind of just talk in a general way to the audience. Children are always reaching."

Meet Leroy, the bad-boy twin of Stitch! The lovable characters from Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch' are back, including Lilo, Stitch, Jumba, Pleakley, along with Stitch's outrageous cousin and 625 fellow experiments in the all-new movie Leroy & Stitch, available on DVD June 27. It's a hilarious and extraordinary battle for the future of the galaxy, and this all-new animated funfest includes a bonus neverbefore- seen episode from the 'Lilo & Stitch' TV series, and a Big Red Battleship Flight Simulator Game. Leroy & Stitch is available for U.S. $26.99 (S.R.P.), Canada $29.99 (S.R.P.) on DVD from Walt Disney Home Entertainment.

In this all-new movie, Lilo, Stitch, Jumba and Pleakley have each gone their separate ways. Jumba's back in the lab, Pleakley teaches college, Lilo's in Hawaii and Stitch commands a Big Red Battleship. But when Dr. Hämsterviel breaks out of prison, he creates the ill-mannered Leroy, the evil twin of Stitch. One Leroy is disastrous enough, but Hämsterviel plans to clone Leroy into an entire army. It's up to Lilo, Stitch, Jumba and Pleakley to band together again, and with help from all 625 of Stitch's experiment cousins, stop Dr. Hämsterviel's plans. When the chips are down, our friends discover that the one place where they all truly belong is together.

Walt Disney World is putting into effect a "No G-Force" alternative to the Mission Space Ride at Epcot by the beginning of the summer.

What this would do is create two versions of the ride.

Guests could decide whether to go on the existing version, or on one where the centrifuge doesn't spin.

Disney says the original version of the ride would not be toned down.

The move comes after a few tourists died after getting on the ride.

A 4-year old boy and a 49-year old woman have died in the past year after riding Mission Space. Doctors believe they both had preexisting medical conditions

Walt Disney only attended one year of high school.
