Rumor Disney's 100th Anniversary

[BrerFoxesBayouAdventure]

From an article at Variety.

"Piecing the voices and characters together in a nine-minute short was a challenge. The first cut hit the 13-minute mark. With thousands of characters to choose from, the biggest challenge wasn’t just picking the characters, it was deciding who would rise to the top."

How Disney Brought Back Robin Williams’ Genie for the Animated Short ‘Once Upon a Studio’ — Without Using AI

How Disney Animation Studios brought Robin Williams' Genie, Peter Pan and more back without using AI, relying on old recording tracks

There were definitely cameos that were left on the cutting room floor, and it's unfortunate that some of the character choices in this were questionable (the entire raya and strange world casts instead of like 2-3 characters).

I know yesterday was mention no Roger Rabbit in the shirt and he isn't in this either so definitely must be conscious decision that it isn't part of the Disney Animation collection

In celebration of Disney100, Disneyland Paris had a 100 character parade today. Here's video from DLP Report (clipped to start at the introduction).

Is anything planned at DL today for Disney100??

MH & WJ are gone already........

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Mickey and Pluto are in Bristol today, along with some churros and rice crispy treats. Bristol rarely gets anything Disney-branded rather than ESPN-branded so this was nice to hear.

Another video from Disneyland Paris' opening ceremony on Disney's 100th Anniversary Day.


Wish Disneyland or WDW was this dedicated.

The art here is based off the mini-figures being sold at stores like Wal-Mart and Target. And Roger wasn't a figure released as part of this set.

Loved that Richard Sherman played "Feed the Birds" - https://www.animationmagazine.net/2...ct-on-their-wonderful-disney-centenary-short/

It just feels like such a simple thing WDW could do, but they just don't. Such a missed opportunity.

…was that today?!?

Must've slipped your mind?

Maybe EF will have a Tag..........Rollseyes!!!.............

Over in DL, it's just a Halloween Cavalcade....First one I've seen all Season BTW, Was it running with Magic Happens the last month?


One one Resort(DLP) is doing something special today for D100...Isn't that a Problem?????

It’s just poor marketing if that’s the case. The Disneyland Paris parade led me onto a vie of the final day of the 30th and now Ive booked another trip

I'm suprised Winnie the Pooh isn't in that artwork.

I absolutely loved this short, and I want that picture, I already checked ShopDisney and they aren’t selling it, missed opportunity Disney.

Only major animated release besides SOTS (for obvious reasons a no go) that didn't have representation was Roger Rabbit. At least in this cut - perhaps the first (13 minutes long according to Variety) cut had him in it.

It was largely live-action though, correct? I also don’t think it was technically a WDAS film either.

Was the dragon from Pete’s Dragon in the short?

The Eisner Era of Disney would had done this approach. I still have fond memories of the 100 Years of Magic Celebration which Disney took effort into marketing between 2001 and 2003.

Disney has released a new Disney100 video.

Roger Rabbit wasn't a Walt Disney Studios/Productions/whatever film; that's almost certainly why it wasn't included.

Pete's Dragon was, though, as was one of the Mary Poppins penguins and at least one character from Bedknobs and Broomsticks. All of those were Walt Disney films.

I'm so happy you noticed me!!

Roger Rabbit wasn't a Walt Disney Studios/Productions/whatever film; that's almost certainly why it wasn't included.

His shorts were produced by the company's Florida studio. Though I'm assuming they were counting the film, which was done primarily by Richard Williams' studio in England, as the main entity behind WFRR. That and there's also issues with the rights to Roger, who's still partially owned by Spielberg's Amblin company.

It was largely live-action though, correct? I also don’t think it was technically a WDAS film either.

Song of the South had about 20-25 minutes of animation in it, so a majority of its runtime is dedicated to the Uncle Remus/Johnny framing device. Other hybrid films (The Reluctant Dragon, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Pete's Dragon) were included in the short so it seems the Br'er characters weren't included for the obvious reasons that I won't (and don't want to) get into.

One of the most glaring omissions is characters from So Dear to My Heart, a movie that was very personal and dear to Walt's heart (heh). Personally, I would've included Danny in the scene with Walt and Mickey's portrait, but maybe that would've made the scene a bit too sappy.
