A highlight of the the annual Star Wars Weekend at Walt Disney World is the ‘Dance-Off with the Star Wars Stars’ aka the ‘Hyperspace Hoopla’.
Yes.
There’s an extended 20 minute version of this year’s event if you’re feeling anyway short-changed.

A phenomenon known as Kelvin Helmholtz Instability, apparently.
A number of leading businessmen have told the Sunday Independent that Communications Minister Pat Rabbitte has said that the Government is unable to formulate a plan to deal with the economy such is the speed and ever-changing nature of the crisis.
In an alarmingly frank admission, which was made on condition of confidentiality, Mr Rabbitte is said to have stated that the Government has been pre-occupied with challenges as they arise and has not managed to construct a strategy for recovery in the medium to long term.
Mr Rabbitte asked that his remarks, which were made at a luncheon attended by figures drawn primarily from the energy sector, not be repeated outside of the meeting.
Really? Really?

Animator Andrew Gordon tells the tale of a space between the walls and the air conditioning units at the Pixar offices that was converted into a “Love Lounge” accessed via a Batman-style secret button.

As seen in The Black Sheep on Capel Street.
You’ll recall the original in the jacks at Whelan’s pub:
