Timon: "I think I need a Hiatus!"

Hey guys-

JAMBO from Africa!! I'm sorry for not updating in a while, but I've been in Africa where the Internet is hard to find (or VERY expensive!) So this is the official post telling you that I will be going on a hiatus until August, when I return to the USA! I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but I will be sure to update you later with terrific pictures from my Lion King adventure! :)

Hey guys-

I've got a busy day today. It's the very last day of school, and I have to take my senior graduation portraits... but I can't, cause my hair is all messed up... so I'll be going to the salon to fix it, and hopefully mold my bangs to look "Disney acceptable"- haha! But anyhoo, I'll update this post AS SOON as I can... and hopefully, I'll have my first video post up and running!



UPDATE: The Epic Quad Battle III:


(this is how we celebrated the last day of classes on campus!)

MTV Movie Awards: Video Roundup

Hey guys-

I've got a final exam today at 4, so I have to keep it short! To begin with, here's a little something I read this morning that I'm excited for...except for the fact that it'll cost around $3,000-$7,000!! The Times did a piece in their newspaper yesterday about Tinker Bell and never-seen-before sketches that have just been uncovered. These sketches will be added to a book, Disney Opus, which is projected to be released in October of next year. This Opus, written by Kraken Opus, will include many never-seen-before sketches, even ones that Walt Disney drew in his childhood. I, myself, would love to get my hands on a copy of this book, but it'll cost me an arm and a leg to pay for it! Click here for the complete article.

Speaking of Vintage Disney, Matterhorn1959 has posted a few black and white pictures of Disneyland that were taken at the end of 1955. Although a few pictures are eerie, it is really interesting to see how the park looked when it first was conceived. Click on the photo below to check out the rest of the gallery!

And for your viewing pleasure, here are a few videos that I found on youtube of Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu, and Zac Efron at the MTV Movie Awards.


Ashley Tisdale is running late!

Do It Yourself: Pixar Animations 101

Hey guys-

Did anyone catch the MTV Movie Awards last night? Besides Sara Silverman's HI-LARIOUS opening monologue (which I would recommend that you check out if you're over the age of 13), High School Musical's Zac Efron was a presenter for the Best Movie category, which didn't show up until the very END of the awards show. Sadly, I didn't spot any other Disney Channel stars in the audience, but here are a few photos that were taken out on the Pink Carpet last night: (Click on the photos to see the complete collection)!

MAIN STREET AMERICA. Sound familiar? Probaly because it is almost the same, exact name as Disney's MAIN STREET U.S.A.. Plans have just been announced that the Axiom Entertainment of Rochester is planning on developing a $106 million theme park aptly titled Main Street America. Supposedly, they have nothing to do with Disney, but I could only speculate as to how they might be just another theme park, trying to make some money off of a certain Disney likeness... hmmmm... Click here for the complete story.

Here is a bit of exciting news for those of you who are amateur movie-makers, like myself! PIXAR, along with Escape Studios, is planning on releasing ANIMATION TOOLS that will help educate the public on how to use RENDERMAN, which is what PIXAR uses on their animation. They are planning for a LATE SUMMER 2007 release! Click here for the complete story.

In non-Disney-related news, I would like to wish one of my favorite actresses a very happy 32nd birthday!!

Happy Birthday, Angelina Jolie!!

Captain Jack vs. Spiderman

Hey guys-

Today marks the first day of June... and you know what that means! That's right! The new DISNEY ADVENTURES is out! I actually picked my own copy up last week, but now that it's June, you can now start using the calendar, and all the dates finally make sense! This issue, like May's issue, is another movie issue. There are articles, and exclusive interviews, pertaining to Ratatouille, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Shrek 3, and Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board!! As it advertises on the cover, this is the ULTIMATE PIRATES issue with a few multipaged spreads! In this issue, there is also a fantastic reading list; today, I actually bought one of the books, Vampirates, and it seems quite interesting so far. So pick up your own own June issue today!





When you were little, what images came to mind when you thought about your grandma? Although everyone is different, I'm guessing when you think about Grandma, you think of fresh-baked cookies, love, and warmth in a cozy, little house. Well, The Daily Mail is reporting that DISNEY Villains are giving children negative images about "the elderly". No offence to the Daily Mail, but NEVER in my life have I ever connected the image of Cruella DeVil to the thought of my sweet, precious grandma and her MahJong-playing friends. Click here for the full article.





It has been one week since the opening of Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End, and its opening weekend is STILL making headlines. Looking back on Hollywood history, what is ONE way (of the very few ways) you can keep grabbing headlines even after-the-matter? Oh, that's right... a good ol' fashion FEUD. That's correct, everybody! After Disney's Pirates Sails to the Largest Opening of All Time, SONY has started to make a HOT FUSS about who's the REAL reigning box-office champ!
