    The First Five Years of Eisner/Wells at Disney were remarkable

    I have never fully understood the ‘hate’ some fans have towards Michael. Seems to me he did a whole lot of good for the Company, and most certainly played a role in helping to refresh many elements to make them grow in new directions and become even more successful. Film division, animation...

    2025 was an awful year

Happy New Year gang, and here’s looking forward to all the good - bad - idiotic - thought provoking - hot intel - real news...

    EPCOT 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts

    That particular piece shown , ‘Tyrolean Fantasy’, is absolutely stunning. I had the honor of seeing the original painting at Tony’s place a few years ago, and it is gorgeous. He was inspired to paint it in the style of his mentor Claude Coats, and at the time found it a great challange. When...

    EPCOT 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts

    As President of the Tony Baxter Fan Club, my duty is clear to announce the following - For all the lucky folks who will be at Walt Disney World at the end of January this coming New Year, this is your chance to meet THE man himself - True Disney Legend Tony Baxter….in person! And take home...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Avatar Fire & Ash is going to make even more money in the next couple of weeks, simply because i have not seen it yet. Been waiting until the mad rush is over, and honestly I am just too buried in work at the moment at this time of year. I have a double showing coming up next week…after the New...

    The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

    Indeed. They just don’t realize what they are missing because they won’t get off their duff and give it a try. Disneyland is waiting to be discovered and enjoyed. Get your butts out there, people! It is truly a superior experience. Trust us. But hey, it’s okay if you want to stick to the...

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    Varang is absolutely the star in this one. I already love this character and I have yet to see the film, but wow I love eveything about what I have seen and heard up to this point. The makeup design, the feathered headdress and costume design, the actress and how she moves, and those EYES! Not...

    The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

    Agree with all of this. A recent example is someone I work with. She has been convinced for the past decade that WDW was just for toddlers, and there was nothing she would be interested in experiencing as a 20-something. Unbelievable…and she was puzzled as to why I visit yearly or sometimes...

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit's 40th anniversary (2028)

    I would like to think we will get a theatrical re-release of the original film in 2028. Hope Spielberg and whoever is running the WDC at that time can come to terms and make it happen. -

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    That ‘unique sound’ of CDs is called ‘Brickwalling’. Look it up sometime. 😉 REAL audiophiles don’t invest in CDs. It’s all about vinyl records, and the superior sound certain pressings offer. Why do you think we sent a Golden Record into space on the Voyager spacecraft…? It is because even...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Pee Wee rules. I have the ‘Pee Wee’s Playhouse Christmas Special’ on VHS tape…..yes, the official release from 1987 …and watch it almost every season! Yes, with a real authentic VHS player…and an old ‘tube’ tv….and it looks GREAT! Today’s useless fact you never knew - The instrumental music...
