When this thread first appeared, the top sign was said to be "Saugus".
This is the California city where "The 'E' Ticket" quarterly Disney
magazine is published.  It's dedicated to articles mainly about the
history of Disneyland (and has included Knott's Berry Farm and other
Southern California attractions sometimes, but mainly Disneyland).

Almost right--it's going to be "Pocahontas".  This is confirmed, not rumor.
It's due out (I think) in early 1994.

Just a quick question.  I just saw Beuaty and the Beast on videotape.  I also
have the soundtrack of it too.  During the Gaston song Lefou spells out
Gaston's name, yet in the movie its not there.  Is this just not on the
videotape or is it not in the movie, too?

Thanx,

I just read the followups, but, I have heard a few rumors that in the
past few months there has been some considerations to set up a competing
service to Showtime and HBO, by Disney.  I know that for a while now,
they have at least been interested in the idea of competing head to head
with such services.

Ayup.  Heard the new theme park was going to be animal themed, have *live*

I'm having trouble imgaining something with live animals and not have it

Someone a while ago started a thread about the Simpsons imitating Disney with
the Itchy and Scratchy movie, or something along those lines...

Anyway, I was watching Simpsons re-runs (cheap local TV stations...) and there
was one episode where Bart was taken into the confiscated property room of the
school so he could choose whatever he wanted in return for his hall-monitoring
services.  Anyway, up on one of the shelves, I caught a glimpse of a MAD
magazine with a satire called Beauty and the Blechhh!

And in another episode, the one where Marge thinks she may be pregnant again
(just what the world needs, another Simpson!), Lisa keeps insisting that the 
new baby be named "Ariel if it's a girl"...

Along the same lines, did anyone find out about that Nancy Cartwright voice in
The Little Mermaid yet?  (I'm assuming it's true, I haven't checked the
credits yet).

Well, thanks to Robert Cook, I've found out what the problem is with
these pictures being so blotchy.  It happens that the software I was
using was using a standard palette, rather than creating a custom one.
I've now worked out how to remedy this and I will re-scan them.

After that?  Well, given the number of people who have asked me for

I just saw this movie last night. I had forgotten how funny these people are,
not having seen the muppet show for such a long time. But about halfway through
the movie I began to think I was not going to make it to the end because I was
laughing so hard. My face is still sore. This movie is a definite score. The
only thing that would have made this movie absolutely perfect would have
been a cameo by Yoda. At the least, there is a horse that sounds like him
(not just like fozzie, but EXACTLY like yoda.) But otherwise this is a
spectacular movie, that isn't just a parody on the story - it actually
follows Dickens tale closely (albeit with a wonderful little talking rat.)
Kermit also does a nice yoda-ish bit on death (which if you think about it
is about Jim Henson).

If anyone is interested in a copy of this book, now well out-of-print, a
local bookstore has some mint condition clearance copies in stock for just
UKP 4.99. Hardback, written by Richard Holliss and Brian Sibley, it's an
invaluable reference work on the whole history of Disney films/theme
parks/etc. Includes a detailed and very well-researched filmography.
The shop have got the original US edition (not the UK reprint), which
used to retail at $40.

If anyone is interested, I could purchase and send copies out by post. On
the other hand, it may still be generally available at other clearance shops,
in which case you should have already got one. :-)

I'm not a cast member, but we were at Disney a few years ago at
Christmas. Weather permitting, the parade is telecast live. They do tape
it a day or two earlier, though, so that if the weather is bad on
Christmas day, they will show the taped version.  When they are
televising a parade, the parade route goes backwards from what it
normally does, so the parade ends up in town square, rather than
starting there.  The cameras are along Main Street, but I don't recall
exactly where. Hope this helps.

	There is a version of "Beauty and the Beast" in a lot of cultures,
so there's almost no way of knowing exactly where it came from.  I remember
reading this Native-American (I cannot remember which tribe, sorry)
story that's similar to BatB, except for some small parts.  In the French
black-and-white movie, "La Belle et La Bete", Belle had two (or three)
sisters.  When their dad went on some trip, the sisters asked him to bring
back jewelry, but Belle asked him to bring back a rose.  Belle's father
went into the Beast's garden trying to get a rose, but was caught by Beast,
who demanded to have Belle in return for the rose.  And it goes on from there.
Quite different from the Disney version, but not as romantic.  I also know
a Chinese version, where Belle also had two sisters, but she was transformed
into a bird after she was murdered by the sisters, and somehow came back
to life after the Beast found out.  Again, I cannot remember exactly what
happened in the story.  If you still want to find the origin of the
story, you might want to contact a professor who's interested in folklore
of your Anthropology Department.  Prof. Alan Dundes of UC Berkeley (yeah!)
did a very interesting case study on Cinderella, and published a book about
it, but that's beside the point....

 DISNEY EXPANDS INTO LONG FORM
 By Steve Coe
 
 Already the leading supplier of network comedies, Disney is expanding
 its long-form activities by signing a deal with ABC to produce at
 least five made-for-TV movies for the 1993-94 and 1994-95 seasons.
 The deal was announced last Tuesday by Dean Valentine, executive vice
 president, Walt Disney Television, who also said Disney will increase
 its made-for output for the other networks.
 
 "The last two years have seen us emerge as the largest single supplier
 of half-hour comedies in the television industry;  our goal now is to
 be the industry leader in long form, as well," says Valentine.
 
 The first project in the ABC deal is "A Family Promise", written by
 Anna Sandor, whose credits include last year's Emmy-winning "Miss Rose
 White".  The project will be executive-produced by Janet Faust Krusi.
 Disney has also enlisted the services of Marian Rees Associates to
 produce one or more of the projects.

have a free continental breakfast including muffins, cereal, etc.
It is also well within walking distance.  We walked every day with

Overall it was a fairly nice place.
