Yeah, I've got one, but I just wanted to note that there _are no_ future
episodes--'Extinct Possibility' shown last Saturday on ABC is the last one.
Altho Disney promised three seasons, the third one has apparently been
canned.  Write to your local ABC station/syndicated Disney Afternoon
station if you want to try to save DW.

Anyway, mail if you want the list.

This probably sounds like a really stoopid question, but could someone please
tell what exactly is in the Beauty and the Beast Collector's Edition box (or
whatever it's called - the one with the VHS tape of the movie, soundtrack CD, 
etc...)

I'm asking this because someone a while back mentioned that the
Work-In-Progress version was included as well.  I was a bit skeptical - both
versions of the movie, soundtrack CD etc...  But I suppose it's possible.  Is
there any "Making of BatB" book or video (3 videos?  Wow!) in there as well,
like with Fantasia?

Anyway, I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could tell me exactly what's in
that box, 'coz we probably won't see it down here in Australia until sometime 
around April/May/June (where have I heard those names before?)

While I don't know a thing about Dixie Landings, I can tell you some
things about the other two.  If you haven't heard both the Port Orleans 
and Caribbean Beach hotels are Disney's attempt at attracting more 
middle-class families to on-site properties.  Previously, Disney hotels
have been notorious for higher rates, and if it weren't for these two
hotels, I doubt you could have found a room for under $100 a night.  The 
exception would be the Disney Village resorts, which are on-site, but owned
by others, such as Hilton, Royal Plaza, Grosvenor, HoJo, etc.  The two newer
hotels do have smaller rooms than say, the Contemporary or Polynesian, but 
they are comparable to any good hotel you would find around.  While these
new hotels are by no means cheap or bargains, they are very reasonable   
considering that they are Disney-owned an on-site.  I believe a family of
four could stay for about $80-$95 a night, which may sound somewhat pricey,
but is very decent for a Central Florida hotel.  Of course, Disney would not
build a hotel without some flair.  Both hotels have themed atmospheres and
treatments, as the names would suggest.  And I'm sure the Disney staff keep
the hotels squeaky clean and pleasant overall. 

These hotels are quite large, however, because of the market they are after.
Both hotels have 1000+ rooms, I think.  In terms of location, they are near
EPCOT Center, and not too far away from the flashier Dolphin and Swan hotels.
Buses serve the hotels to take you to the Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and MGM
Studios.  It may not be as exotic as the monorail station in the Contemporary,
but Disney works very hard to run an efficient and clean bus system.

Hope this helps.....Have fun!

When I was in Quebec the week before Thanksgiving, I purchased a cassette
tape of the French version of "Beauty and the Beast".  The cover says "Original
French Version" and it says that the lyrics are by Howard Ashman.  There is NO
reference to a translator and the lyrics are hilarious (and in French).  Does
anyone know anything about this -- did Ashman write the French version as well?
Which came first the English or the French? (Normally, the statement "Original
French Version" means that the film FIRST came out in French -- of course, it
may mean something different when dealing with animation.

Does anyone know where to get the written French lyrics?

Also, is there any way to get the videotapes La Petite Sirene (The Little
Mermaid) and La Belle et La Bete (Beauty and the Beast) in the United States?
I have gone to Sam Goody, the Warehouse, and Music+ but they all say that they
can't order them.  I would be willing to go to Disneyland just to purchase
these versions if I knew that they were available there.  Thanks in advance.

Most of the time, the problem isn't with the parks's themselves filling up, it's with the 
Parking Lots filling up.  This tends to be a problem with the Studios, and not so much with 
the MK or EC.  I have been there during the Feb. break period (President's day week) and in
mid July, and those times are the only times that we had problems getting into the Studios.
Usually, when we stay on site, we use the transportation system for the whole day, or if we
decide that we will split the day between parks, we drive and park in the lot of the park where
we will end the day.  The last time we were there, were at the Beach Club, so's we didn't drive
at all!!

or resorts would be very much appreciated.

I can not regularly access USENET, so I ask that anyone who would like to

I think she did read the article but she wanted to make a joke about the

To work in one of the EPCOT pavillions for one of the countries, you must speak that language fluently.  Some of the cast members that already work at the pavillions are transferred from those respective countries, whatever they may be.  If you are interested in working for Disney, I suggest you contact the casting office located in Orlando. I don't know the number off hand, but you can get by talking to one of their operators at 1-407-wdisney.

The tale in all its forms is too old for anyone to point to the
origin (as old as time, I suppose).

It's actually quite long for a fairy tale, rivaling The Little Mermaid
in that department.  A lot of time in *French* versions of the tale--the
most well known worldwide, probably--is taken up by Beauty's
dinners, dreams (i.e. dreams while asleep), and struggles with her
sisters (who became the Bimbettes, in all likelihood).  It gets
boring, and Disney fixes that.

Disney SEEMS TO have based their version on Madame Leprince de
Beaumont's story, which appeared in the Young Miss's Magazine in the
late eighteenth century.  Her version is, in turn, is based on Madame
d'Aulnoy's version, which appears (translated, of course) in Andrew
Lang's Blue Fairy Book.  The Disney story department was also
apparently influenced by John Cocteau's French film "La Belle et la
Bete." (note the living sculpture and the candelabrums)

Of course, Disney took everything further and way out of the
mainstream.  We have a whole lot of animated objects.  Instead of
just liking to read "good books," Belle is an avid bookworm.  Beauty's
sisters, who all desperately wanted suitors, became the Bimbettes,
and, well, we all know what they are. ;-)  Disney made their Beast
ferocious in the beginning, rather than just lacking in wit.  The
Rose became a magical timepiece instead of an ironic (and indirect)
cause of Beauty's hassles.  Want me to go on and on?  Thought so!
Just kidding.

Upon further checking, the special deal posted here previously about
an EPCOT one-day ticket being good for the rest of the year was
correct.  This test offer is for everyone and not just for Florida
residents.
 
Here are more details about what's going on at WDW this month:
 
-  Candlelight Ceremony:  Procession of choirs begins at 7pm in
Frontierland, Dec. 19 & 20.  This year's narrator is Paula Zahn,
network anchor for CBS.
 
-  Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parade will bethe centerpiece of a
special 2 hour program airing on ABC at 10 am Christmas Day.  For the
10th year in a row, the hostess will be Joan Lunden, accompanied by
Regis Philban.
 
-  The new Disney-MGM Studio parade debuts on Dec 21.  "Aladdin's
Royal Caravan" will be presented daily, recreating "Prince Ali's"
triumphant arrival at the Sultan's castle.
