It's a pirate's life, with little of the 'yo ho' The Disney park attraction's signature song is one of the familiar elements largely missing from the film. By Jon Burlingame, Special to The Times In the opening scene of Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the...

OT: iTunes Music Store & AAC Files (Part 2) Eisner remains doubtful that *any* of the purchase-and-download schemes (including the iTunes Music Store) will work. So, I wouldn't expect to see material from Disney available via such a method soon. Steve Jobs had his "people" pitch the iTMS idea...

OT: iTunes Music Store & AAC Files Apple's iTunes Music Store offers music encoded (by the labels themselves, btw) using Advanced Audio Coding (MPEG-4). (More information regarding AAC may be found here: http://www.apple.com/mpeg4/aac/) it is generally accepted that music encoded at 128...

Pixar owes two more features to fulfill the obligations of their present deal with Disney. These will be "The Incredibles" and "Cars." Steve Jobs is free to cut a new deal for projects beyond those with *anyone* now that he has delivered "Finding Nemo," although a film with a new partner could...

I was referring solely to mechanical issues which prevented the theater ring from rotating safely. During such occasions, audience members were escorted out of the theaters and the attraction was closed until the problem(s) could be resolved. This wasn't really much of an issue in Anaheim until...

Just reviewed a live recording (April '75) of America Sings to confirm that "Columbia, The Gem Of The Ocean" was used as load background music as detailed earlier. There it was, in all of its minute and a half glory. (Only twenty seconds or so are found on my cassette as I was attempting to...

Make that four more times...

Regarding the aforementioned edition of "Columbia, The Gem Of The Ocean" (written by David T. Shaw in 1843), it might be worth mentioning that America Sings had six theaters and four scenes as well as the two load and unload "scenes." Each segment (including load and unload) lasted five seconds...

It might be worth mentioning that for me both posting and replying work just fine using Safari. I'll email you and see if we can't figure out what the hold up might be. 1313

Paul Frees did not commit suicide. He died on 11/2/86 of a heart attack at his home in Tiburon, California. He was 66 years old. There was nothing suspicious regarding his death. Frees had been in failing heath due to his life-long pursuit of... well, let's just say that Paul REALLY enjoyed...

There was no theme song for the Magic Skyway attraction or exhibit gardens. However, the Sherman Brothers wrote "Get The Feel Of The Wheel Of A Ford" for a planned Disneyland edition of Magic Skyway, which ultimately was never built. Several versions (western, surf, march, jazz, etc.) of the...

Enchanted What? (Was Re:carousel of progress) The good news is that only the, ah, *simple* citizens of Zanarkand feel that way! ;-) We air-breathing Earthlings appear to greatly prefer the original show. 1313

I'm told that one of the pleasant surprises when material was being gathered for the unreleased World's Fair box set was the high quality of the Small World material. Apparently, for that project Randy created a 21 minute "mega-mix" of the attraction... so, perhaps we haven't heard all of...

The contract with RedDot just ended... so, this isn't particularly sad news. The company had just been letting the system idle until the original deal concluded. The "Forever" concept will be handled in-house in its next incarnation. 1313

Please, don't worry about it. Good for you for being passionate! I know what you mean with regard to nothing-but-negative statements. I was not trying to join that crowd. I am a huge fan of Disney (2D) animation! As far as "if you have any articles or such to prove otherwise" -- be advised...

"If you hate Disney so much - don't torture yourself by doing anything related to it. Leave the magic for people who truly understand it." Goodness, I just expressed my opinion concerning what I've personally seen and heard regarding L&S. Who said anything about hating Disney... or anybody...

I saw much of L&S while it was being mixed and was thoroughly unimpressed. It looked cheap (think Saturday morning) and the so-called storyline was awful. Of course, I haven't seen the finished project so I suppose some miracle could have taken place during editing. (Doubtful.) Regardless, I...
