## Description

## History

After five people disappeared in the nearby Hollywood Tower Hotel on the Halloween of 1939, the company fell on hard-times.

### Twilight Zone Tower of Terror

G-Force Records is situated next-door to the Hollywood Tower Hotel at the edge of Sunset Boulevard. According to Disney historian Jim Korkis in his book *More Secret Stories of Walt Disney World: More Things You Never Knew You Never Knew (Volume 2)*, G-Force records was developed to tie Rock 'n' Roller Coaster to its sister-attraction The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. In the original story it would have been said that G-Force Records was founded back in the golden age of Hollywood.

In this story, members of the record-label attended the Halloween reception of 1939 when lightning struck the hotel, killing five people and connecting the hotel to the 5th Dimension. While the officials of G-Force were able to mysteriously escape from the hotel's 13th floor Tip Top Club, the hotel's disaster and subsequent closure resulted in damage to G-Force's business as few were willing to be affiliated with their part of Hollywood. It is subsequently implied that the success of the company in the 1990s is connected to the 1994 reopening of the Hollywood Tower Hotel and its dark operations though the exact nature of this is unknown.

## Trivia

* G-Force Records' labels are all owned in real-life by the Walt Disney Company.

Big Grizzly Mountain

**Big Grizzly Mountain** is a location in Grizzly Gulch, connected to the story of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

## Description

Big Grizzly Mountain is a mountain in Northern California found in the town of Grizzly Gulch. It gets its name from how the mountain's peak resembles the head of a grizzly-bear in addition to being home to grizzly bears,

## History

Grizzly Gulch was established on August 8, 1888 - the luckiest day of the luckiest month of the luckiest year. However, the townspeople ran into trouble when they discovered they had built their town on a field of geysers. The town was literally sinking and their fortunes went with it.

Their luck turned around, when Captain Phineas Cosgrove went exploring around Big Grizzly Mountain. He came across a family of three bears scratching their backs against the mountain. When they left, he found traces of gold and staked his claim, starting the Big Grizzly Mountain Mining Company. Large ores and nuggets of gold were discovered and the town prospered, becoming the ‘luckiest town in the west’. The bear family became mascots for the town, nicknamed Rocky, Motherlode, and Nugget. They were protected by the citizens, in hopes that it would keep their luck going.

Christopher Columbus

**Cristoforo Colombo** or **Cristóbal Colón**  (1451-1506) (retroactively anglicized to **Christopher Columbus**) is an honorary member of the Society of Explorers and Adventurers.

## History

Cristoforo Colombo was an Italian navigator who was given funding by the Spanish monarchy to attempt to sail across the Atlantic Ocean to make trade with East India. Contrary to popular belief, it was known that the Earth was round and the Earth's general size when Cristoforo made his voyage but what made Colombo unique was that he was considerably bad at math. Cristoforo believed the Earth was significantly smaller than it actually was and that it was shaped like a pear, this is why he wished to cross the Atlantic which was not attempted due to it being seen as too large of a distance to survive in a ship (which had it not been for the Americas it would have been).

Luckily for Cristoforo Colombo, the Americas existed and he landed in the Caribbean which was inhabited by a massive amount of indigenous peoples. Cristoforo Colombo would go on the enslave, murder and assault countless of these people out of greed and evil before spreading diseases foreign to the indigenous which murdered a massive amount of their population. Cristoforo would report on this to Spain and also assist in establishing the infamous Transatlantic Slave Trade while being used as the poster-boy for European settler-colonialism in Americas (the continents themselves he never actually set foot on). Due to this, stories of Colombo's endeavours in the, "New World" would be heavily exaggerated and even outright fabricated as a form of colonial propaganda. He would die in 1506 at the age of 54 of a heart-attack.

### Disney Parks

Due to colonial-myths regarding Colombo (or "Christopher Columbus")'s journeys to the Americas he was named as one of S.E.A.'s honorary members to represent their ideals of, "Discovery".

Charles F. Muntz

**Charles F. Muntz** is the main antagonist of the 2009 Disney/Pixar film Up.

## History

During the 1930s, Charles Muntz was a celebrated explorer and adventurer who often traveled with his dogs in his zeppelin, "The Spirit of Adventure". On an expedition to Paradise Falls in South America, Muntz discovered a species of flightless bird which he hunted and killed. The bird's skeleton however was not believed by scientists of the day to be authentic and Muntz was subsequently stripped of his status.

Muntz went on to isolate himself in Paradise Falls, obsessed with hunting the remaining bird to collect alive. He would continue this operation with little success for over 50 years, primarily relying on his dogs which he equipped with translation collars. When he came across other humans in the falls he would become paranoid that they wished to discover the bird first and murder them in cold blood.

Around 2009, Muntz came across an old retired man named Carl Fredricksen and junior Wilderness Explorer named Russell who had gained familiarity with the bird. Muntz attempted to murder them for this and use them to hunt the bird but would die in a quarrel with Carl, falling from the Spirit of Adventure while it was in flight. The Spirit of Adventure and dogs would subsequently be taken under the ownership of Carl.

CTX Time Rovers

**CTX Time Rovers** also known simply as **Time Rovers** are a fictional vehicle from the attraction *Dinosaur (Countdown to Extinction)*.

## Description

The CTX Time Rover is a specialized vehicle which functioned both as an automated ground vehicle and a time-machine. The rovers had three rows and were capable of holding 12 passengers with four being fit in each row. The Time Rovers were not typically driven by its passengers but rather driven remotely from its originating time-periods. In addition to this, the rovers came equipped with an advanced computer capable of instantly identifying animals, controlling the vehicle's movement, along with other other computing feats.

The time-travel functions of the Time Rovers appeared to be reliant on external factors at their port. Amongst these were a specialized chamber equipped with a *Parallel Time Converter*, made possible via a pulsating flow of ions. These chambers in-turn generated a capacitated vortex similar to a dark tunnel with green glowing lights that allowed for time-travel.

## History

CTX Time Rovers were developed in the late 20th century by the company ChronoTech. ChronoTech came to be bought-out by the Dino Institute in Diggs County, Florida which used the Time Rovers for palaeontology.

Mr. Snellman

*” **Teen teistä N A K K E J A**”*
— A Finnish statement of good fortune by Mr. Snellman

**Herra Snellman** is a synthetic Meat Puppet Sausage Maker, the CEO of galactic meat giant Snellman and the mentor of Theseus Theophilus Burgerus.

## Biography

The origins of Mr. Snellman are a mystery lost in time, but evidence suggests the original was born somewhere in the 20th century on Ancient Earth and may originally have been a Human.

At the start of the 21st century, the corporation found the secret to mind uploading and began producing synthetic Meat Puppets, a kind of an android made mostly out of a pork-bovine ground meat mix. For nearer than five centuries the company has transferred the mind of it's CEO into new bodies. These bodies generally survive for almost half a week until rotting away, but their endurance can be lengthened by storage in cold temperatures.

In the year 2373, Mr. Snellman became the adoptive father and mentor of Theseus Theophilus Burgerus. He gave the young prince a place to stay and trained him in the ways of meat processing. The prince stayed at Snellman's farm until he was 18 years of age.
