    Hiya Dirk! Absolutely! I am only so vehement about the need for characters to sing again because of the recent dirth of animated musicals. :D Absolutely true again! What was the last Disney live-action musical? Newsies (another Menken project!) Lets crank up the machine and show...

    Should the characters sing again?

    Michael, I will NOT be pre-judgmental about Lilo & Stitch. Trailers make it look funny. We shall see. I didn't think I'd like Phil Collins' tunes for Tarzan and was proven completely wrong. However, while I completely agree with you about needing "fresh songwriting sparks to be fired...

    Should the characters sing again?

    Yes, indeed, it is Michael. As I posted over in that Hunchback DVD thread [and thank you for your response], it is a real shame after its string of successes in the animated musical genre that the Disney studios has apparently abandoned the form. Mermaid, Beauty, Aladdin, Lion King...

    Disneyland Anniversay CD Box Set

    Would have shortened the quote...but I liked it all too much! Jeff, I'm with you all the way. There could be park souvenir CDs for the folks who want to bring home "Its A Small World", etc. AND, if they want to please the afficionados and produce a quality product which would sell for major...

    Parades CD

    Close, Sharon. VERY close! But I think you meant the SpectroMagic Theme and Remember The Magic. Alternating. Over and over and over and over! ;D ;D ;D

    Yo! Brookyn! No wonder you enjoy Newsies so much! ;D I also liked Frank Sinatra's character in "Anchors Aweigh". What does he call Brooklyn in that movie? Is it "the city of homes and churches"?

    Hunchback of Notre Dame DVD

    Haven't watched it yet, but read reviews that the "Making of..." program is, indeed, the one hosted by Jason Alexander. The R-1 DVD, as I'm sure you know Sami did NOT get the version of the deleted "Someday". :'( That's too bad. I suspect Disney might be re-issuing this title in a few...

    Hunchback of Notre Dame DVD

    I'm watching my brand new copy right now. The DTS 5.1 track sounds awesome! I've read some complaints in other forums about grain, but to this eye the transfer looks pretty darn good. What a great soundtrack! Menken & Schwartz! Lets get these guys back and bring the musical back to new...

    Favorite Old School Epcot Song

    Re:Best original EPCOT SONG Okay, I'm still having a difficult time getting acclimated to the new surroundings...but I feel very comforted knowing I can stumble into a simple poll thread and find Jeff & Bean trading barbs about LightMagic. :(

    Welcome to the New Discussion Forum!

    ;D Well, yeah, I can see where that would be a major pain! Oh, and thanks for ignoring the fact that I called you Jeff by mistake in my original post! :-[ Well, at least I would hope that you would consider yourself in good company with our friend from Orange County! I am still finding my...

    Welcome to the New Discussion Forum!

    Hiya everybody! ;D This is gonna take some getting used to. Us "old" fellas sometimes take a while to adjust to "change". Congrats to both Sharon and Trent! Sharon, I thought you'd be honeymooning at the FreshKills! Hiya Jeff! I guess I just feel like writing stuff, even though I...
