My wife & I are planning on taking our daughters (ages 9 & 4) to Disneyland
this February.  I've seen quite a few comments about WDW in this group, but not
much on the original.  Has anyone taken a family there recently?  And are
the package deals worthwhile?  I'm looking at one where you stay at the
Disneyland hotel (Anaheim), but it seems rather expensive.  Do the amenities
make it worth staying there, rather than, say, the Jolly Roger?

Hey, you don't suppose that Yeardly could have played the ugly woman
who said something like "Still I think he's rather TASTY!" while
apparently trying to...ummm...show Aladdin her affection?  Sounds like
her, at least.

I predict that Michael Eisner will take his 200 million dollar stock money and
buy as many copies as he can to horde Aladdin when it comes out on tape.  Then
it will be found out that Robin William's contract accidentally said that he
had total control over the release and copyright of Alladin, the Alladin
writing, as well as bloomer pants.  This will trigger a bitter custody and
infringement battle between Robin Williams and Barbara Eden.  Barbara is trying
to raise $12 million to keep her aging figure intact, and get a date with Larry
Hagman, who still doesn't return her phone calls after Wayne Rogers portrayed
Tony Nelson in the Jeanie update.  This will trigger yet another court battle
between Wayne Rogers and Quinn Martin productions over the casting of Trapper
John, MD.  This will be the last straw for actor Jamie Farr, and he will wield
an automatic weapon at Tony Paco's restaurant in Toledo, Ohio and he will shoot
the hotdog bun signed by Campaigning Vice President Dan Quayle as he whisted
through town.  This will make George Bush upset, and as his last act as
president, he will order the immediate invasion of France so that he can spend
time at EuroDisney instead of the Saudi Desert, or the Somoli desert, thus
making a state visit more fun for Barbara....
Now what was the question again?

Since Sleeping Beauty is going to be re-released in theaters in the spring,
I would guess you'll have to wait a year beyond that for the videotape (and
possibly another year beyond that for the LaserDisc, but I won't start that
debate again).

In addition to this info., when I was down in WDW, the rumor mill was circulating

Sorry, I'm just diappointed that Buena Vista decided to delay Sleep.
I did hear from a source that the print for Sleep is in bad shape
and that they are probably going to restore it or something.

Besides, I always represent the Walt Disney Co. so it couldn't be

I've noticed Tigger's name spelled a couple of different ways.  I think it was
that I was surprised the first time I had seen it written "by Christopher
Robin" and it was so poorly spelled.  Especially when he "named" the animals.
But, he is just a kid.

No... I'm not talking about in-jokes, here.  Rather, I'm interested in
books and articles on the behind-the-scenes struggles.

So far, I've found three very good articles.
Entertainment Tonight had a cover story on Aladdin, including detail
of all the changes that the script went through.  Plus, a sidebar
describing the six songs that were cut from the film and why.

Premiere magazine--the issue with the Dracula cover.  

$25 coffeetable book "The Making of Aladdin"  Actually, I'm more
interested in the info in the articles.  Chief problems:  1) No
mention of Robin Williams name--and their contortions to avoid his
name distract.  2) Too much personality driven, rather than focussing
on the process. I'm far more interested in the behind the scene
battles that they discuss in the other articles, than I am in twelve
pages of Linda Larkin's voice auditions. 
[Also, I must mention one of the funnier typos:  Oliver & Company
featured "a pack of dogs as _Fabian's_ gang"]

Any other good sources of information?

If you have a Magic Kingdom Club(MKC)card the 5 day super passes admissions are:

$166.00 (adults)
$130.00 (childs) 

These are rounded up to the nearest $.

If you are staying on the property you might want to call the Central
Reservation Office and inquire about the Be Our Guest Pass(BOG).  These may 
work out better for you depending on your situation....they are basically
the same as the Super pass except they can only be purchased for your entire
stay and they expire on the last day (meaning if you are there arrive at 3 PM
on Monday and leave 10 AM on Saturday you are concidered a guest for 6 days/
5 nights and can ONLY purchase a 6/5 pass).  Originally during my Nov trip 
I wrote to WDW concerning the discontinuing of the 6/7/8 day passes and the 
implementation of this new pass system...in your case this may turn out
better.

For the BOG example above the 6day / 5 night pass would be:

165.30 (adults)
131.10 (childs)

again the MKC discount applies...this would present a savings only if:

- You can use all 6 days (it expires the last day that you are there).
- You can actually use all the days...your arrival date/departure date
  would normally be used for park admission...as well as all the days
  that you are in a WDW hotel.

The above info is based on pricing during the November period and the programs 
that were available at that time.

OTC  12/30 1458  WARNER BROS. EDGES OUT DISNEY FOR TOP BOX OFFICE ...

HOLLYWOOD (DEC. 30) UPI - For the second straight year, Warner Bros. has  edged
out Disney as Hollywood's leading studio, earning nearly 20 percent of all 1992
film revenues and releasing movies that occupied the top spot at the box office
for 14 weeks.
   Warner, a unit of Time Warner Inc., had already edged out Disney in 1991 with
13.9 percent of the box office, compared to Disney's 13.7 percent.
   Daily Variety reported Wednesday that Warner was holding its 1992 lead over
Disney by less than 1 percent.
   The studio's "Under Siege" won the box office four times, while summer hits
"Batman Returns," "Unforgiven" and "Lethal Weapon 3" each won three weeks and
"Passenger 57" won once.
   Warner was also the top film supplier for the fifth year in a row with 25
titles released, while 20th Century Fox released 22 and Disney opened 21, the
most in its history.
   Disney, which was the leading studio in 1990, won the box office six times
with "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" taking four weeks and "Honey I Blew Up the
Kid" and "Medicine Man" winning once each. But the studio had two other major
successes - holiday hit "Aladdin" with more than $80 million and still going
strong and "Sister Act" with close to $140 million.
   Fox, a unit of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., finished third with 14 percent
and led the box office seven times. Its major hits were "Home Alone 2: Lost in
New York," already the year's fourth-best grosser at $125 million and "White Men
Can't Jump."
   Columbia, a unit of Sony Corp., was fourth with 12.5 percent as it came on
strong late in the year with "A Few Good Men," "Bram Stoker's 'Dracula,"'
"Single White Female" and "Homeymoon in Vegas." It took the No. 1 spot nine
times.
   Universal, a subsidiary of Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., finished fifth
with 12.1 percent and just three weeks with the No. 1 film: two for
"Sneakers"and one for "Death Becomes Her."
   Paramount, last year's third-place finisher at 12 percent, dropped to 10.1
percent and wound up in sixth. Its films finished first seven times, with
"Wayne's World" winning for five weeks and "Patriot Games" winning twice.
   Sony's TriStar was seventh with 6.8 percent with six first-place finishes,
five by "Basic Instinct" and the other by "Hook."
