Being an avid runner runner I saw this up close twice this year.  During my
Sept stay in Fort Wilderness, the land clearing as well as a lot of the 
prep work for the sewage/elec/water was being done (survey flags all over
the place).

They had shut down the 'exercise path' in FW...since I run the roads used by
the bus system (including the roads that service between the transportation
center and FW), I ran through the sight.

During November I stayed in FW again.  This time the back access road (to FW)had
changed to form a 4 way intersection with the access road to the transportation
center & the Polynesian Hotel....it use to come out down the road a bit 
towards the Contemporary...lot more work had been done on sewer/water/elec and
steel was being put in place in that clearing.  If you use the access road
to the Contemporary, right after you pass under the monorail to the right
there is a new construction sign with a picture of the Fort Wilderness Lodge.

Of course, you have to be careful putting your own societal mores on other
cultures. Up until the last couple or hundred years, 14 was considered a
very good time for a woman to get married. (Shakespeare's Juliet, to name
just one example, was 14). Kids grew up a lot quicker in the old days.

I've met women with very large, expressive eyes. They may not physically be
as large as Ariel or Belle, but they seem that way. Fascinating faces that
can be quite attractive.

It's possible that the movie as a whole might be ravaged by time
(it's not all that old, though), but the print used for the trailer
on the Beauty and the Beast tape looks fine.

Side note:
I can't say the same for the Aladdin trailer--it looks like someone
vacuumed it along with a dirty carpet (magic carpet?) before transferring
it to video!  It's probably a side-effect of the fact that Aladdin wasn't
finished when the trailer was made. :-)

Here is a list of films he has been in, with Disney flicks marked.

	Absent Minded Professor, The			(disney)

	Babes in Toyland (1961)				(disney)

He was also in several episodes of the Wonderful World of Disney.  "The

The last I heard from Disney was that there are no plans to release
101 Dalmatians on laser disc.  If you want to see it on laser disc,
you should write and tell the nice people (they are very nice) at
this address:
  
  Consumer Relations Department
  Buena Vista Home Videos
  P.O. Box 908

At an animation auction last Saturday (in the San Jose, CA area), a watch
and mug from the Disneyana convention were auctioned off... 

	the mug went for $40
	the watch went for $300 
	a cinderella's castle didn't get a bid over $1000 so it was pulled out

The auction was mostly a variety of cels ... production, serigraphs, etc... a couple
of posters, and some "collectibles" like mickey dolls, toys, etc... not all Disney.

They happen about once every 4-6 weeks in the area...meaning from Reno to San Jose.

Disney (DIS) started 1992 at $28 and 5/8ths (effective price).  It closed
on Dec 30th at $43 and a half.  That's an increase of 52% for the year.

No, I think it has more to do with the fact these characters are designed

I wondered the same thing, but if you really think about it, it sorta doesn't
matter.  It will always be funny to children just because they see the Genie
doing silly things.  IT will be funny to older people 'cuz they may remember
many of the references.  Ones who pass into total obscurity (as I really hope

Close.  Well, not at all really.  The *next* Disney film is supposed to
be called "The Lion King" - little bits of the story are moving about
the group occasionally.  After that, it's supposed to be "Pocahontas",
set in the settlement of Jamestown in Virginia, one assumes.  So, yes,
there is going to be a Native-American-type film, but not about
Hiawatha.

I thought Disney had already *done* "Hiawatha" as a short.  Anyone?

I believe that originally, Jasmine was to have no singing role at all, so 
only a speaking voice was cast.  When it was later decided that she was to 
sing in "A Whole New World", Lea Salonga was cast for the part.

Pinocchio is going to be released in March
Sleeping Beauty is going to be released in theatres in 1993 (this was announced on the
BatB tape). I'm sure Sleeping Beauty will be released for Christmas or Spring 94 (just
like Pinocchio is Spring 93).
Look for Aladdin (I'm guessing) to be on video next Christmas just like BatB this year.

We stayed at the Yacht Club last August and loved it.  We liked it better
than either the Contemporary or the Villas.  It didn't strike me as being
more formal than the other resorts, but it seemed to me that the average
age of the guests was higher.  It may not be true, but it seemed to me that
the Magic Kingdom resorts have a higher percentage of small children.

most likely going to a movie rental place <i.e. blockbuster> and asking for one, they will probably have a few sent to them by Disney to put up as advertizing, you can get some great displays that way, more luck in the smaller stores, though.

Wha?  I thought the animation/live-action thing was the special to celebrate
Mickey's 60th birthday, which was VERY dissapointing and gushy.  The hat
from Fantasia did play a plot role as well as a *very* stupid looking
wizard. However, if there was another for Fantasia I'd like to see it.

They sure have!  It is a very well-animated Silly Symphony with
animals that look like the ones in Snow White.  I don't believe that
Hiawatha in particular would make good feature film material, but
this does raise the issue of whether Disney should expand some of
their old short subjects.  However, I can't think of anything
worthy, myself.
