I hate to interupt the wonderful job Mikey has been doing this week. But I thought I’d mention that Apple has put up a Quicktime Trailer of Tim Burton’s next Stop Motion Animated Feature – The Corpse Bride. It looks absolutely amazing.
I’m getting pretty excited about the release of Bambi on DVD on March 1st! It’s been so long since I’ve seen this movie (probably when I was very little during a theatrical re-release), so watching it on DVD will be like discovering an entirely new Disney classic for me (and I can pretend Disney is… Read More »Ready for Bambi

I think every Disneyland fan should have a brick in Disney’s Walk of Magical Memories. If you haven’t noticed, these hexagon-shaped bricks fill the entrance plaza between Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure, and you can purchase a brick of your very own, which can include your name, hometown, and a special date. I’ve had my… Read More »Disney’s Walk of Magical Memories
