One of the cool things about doing this site is that there are so many other people out there who are just as weird and obsessed about crazy Walt Disney World stuff as we are. Also, they are apparently deranged pyromaniacs. Our close personal friend Jess M. was kind enough to email some more pictures […]
Theme Park Life
T-Shirt Correction League
So I was browsing through a shop at the Magic Kingdom. I think it was Sir Mickey’s (a.k.a. the best shop in Fantasyland), and I came across a t-shirt. I think this is a new line of interactive clothing from the makers of fine Disney threads. The goal is to look at the picture and […]
4 Haunting Disney World Smells
My first trip to Walt Disney World was in the early 70s. My family would go every year. We lived in Indiana, so needless to say, we drove (the first airplane was not sighted in Indiana until Reagan’s second term). My childhood was spent marking time between Disney World visits like a prisoner making notches […]
Infinity in my pants!
OK… Just a quick image today that I blatantly stole from our friend Jerry (Who I think may have stolen it himself so take a hike Jerry)… But seriously, I don’t care how big a company you are, I don’t care how many projects you are juggling or how low priority something like this […]
The Upside of Avatar
According to a Gallup poll released recently, Avatarland has an approval rating that’s actually worse than the French head of the IMF. Blue Man Group has seen its ticket sales plummet since the announcement. It’s gotten so bad that the church of Scientology released a statement calling it a “patently crazy idea.” I cannot disagree […]
The Problem With Avatar…
See, Disney can keep a secret after all. A bunch of rich white guys announce a way to make money off a bunch of poor blue people. I would guess that they have been scrambling to put this big Avatar deal together for some time, hoping perhaps to have it wrapped up for a big […]
Echoes of Aulani
I recently got back from a week on Oahu. For those of you that don’t speak Hawaiian, Oahu is an island whose most famous feature is Pearl Harbor, the site of some obscure bit of American history. If you’ve heard of Pearl Harbor at all, it’s only because Ben Affleck made a movie about it. […]
Disney World is for Addicts
If you don’t mind, I’d like to talk about something serious that is affecting the parkeology community. It’s the sad dark side to being a Disney park fan: Addiction. This social disease has claimed more than its fair share of Disney bloggers. It’s not something we like to talk about, but I’m afraid it must […]
Walt Disney World Quest Magical Racing Tour (2000)
It’s been a long time since we had an entry in our series of park-based video games. And as you no doubt have noticed, the world financial markets are reacting to this oversight. Unemployment figures have risen sharply, and America’s students are now verifiably stupider than they were before. So, here to set everything right, […]
