One of my favorite topics is complaining about places at Walt Disney World that I’ve never been able to visit. Ever since my post about the Catwalk Bar, I have been consumed with jealousy for people more privileged than myself. I think it’s because when I was a young lad, I once begged for pennies […]
Lost and Abandoned Disney Details
A few more…
Nothing too fancy today but we thought you might enjoy seeing a few more of the matchbooks of Disney’s past… Think of this as a continuation of last weeks post and we will have some new stuff up soon. The official hotels at the Hotel Plaza got in on the action as well. […]
Thank you for smoking…
It’s funny how times change. One day Universal is the laughing stock of the theme park world, the next day they still are but now they have a really nicely done Harry Potter section. Hey Listen, I am not going to make fun of this, it’s sweet. Seriously, it is amazing how what was considered […]
A Great Mystery…
It is well established that we suck! Everything Disney gets in Tokyo is far superior to our honky-tonk, county fair, ho-down like experiences. If given a choice between a trip to the Tokyo Disney Resort and say ending world hunger only a fool would choose to feed the children. In fact in my very own […]
Disneyland Dream
Parkeology is all about trying to find some little known fact or detail to talk about. We try for truly obscure stuff, well beyond the standard Hidden Mickeys. With all the die-hard fan sites out there, it’s hard to find anything that has never been written about in some shape or form, but we do […]
Disney’s Gulf Coast Disaster
Today we are going to take a break from Shane’s video game opus and shift gears to something much more serious; the many tragedies to have befallen upon the Gulf Coast. If it wasn’t so sad it would almost be pretty… and there is nothing funny about it. In 2005 Hurricane Katrina wreaked havoc on […]
Walt Disney World Explorer CD-ROM (1996)
Released in 1996 (with a revised edition two years later), the Walt Disney World Explorer CD-ROM game quickly climbed the charts to become the best selling game of the year. Featuring an innovative combat interface, diabolical level design, and enhanced A.I., it went on to collect all the major awards and appeared on several Top […]
Haunted Mansion GameCube Edition is an Unfaithful Axe-Wielding Bride
The Haunted Mansion GameCube video game is sadly unfaithful to the source material. It bears no resemblance to the classic Disney attraction.
Adventures in the Magic Kingdom (1990)
If you grew up the 80s and didn’t own or want to own an NES, then either you spent your early years living in a bomb shelter with your paranoid parents, or you were a girl. And that’s not even true, because girls at least love Tetris, and the NES is so awesome you […]
