Sorry we’ve been kind of quiet lately. As the dedicated parkeologists that we are, we have been jetting all over the world to bring you hard-hitting articles about Paris, Disneyland, and Hawaii. In other words, we have been vacationing, and trying to figure out if there’s any way we can claim a tax deduction on […]
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Stage One Company Store
There’s an old argument among parkeologists about what passes for theming. You can have a themed birthday party, in which kids wear cowboy hats and eat boot-shaped cake and try to lasso the cat.

The Simple Reason Why Endor Vendors Beats Tatooine Traders
Star Tours 1.0 has been retired for nearly a year now. Star Tours 2 is not only better than the first, it also may be better than the three prequels, the Star Wars Christmas Special, and that silly CGI Max Rebo Band from Return of the Jedi Special Edition. But for all its posh new […]

Indiana Jones Tank Restored from the Boneyard
The actual Indiana Jones tank scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade can be found at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, now better than ever.
Lion King House of Horrors
Who doesn’t love the Lion King? It is non-stop cuddly creatures from the opening number until the very end of the movie. Snuggly lions, huggable warthogs, squeezy giraffes. Just sitting in the movie theater makes you want to save all the animals in the world, to spread a message of peace, love, and harmony. We […]
Gun Logic in the Great Movie Ride
I love simple solutions to complex problems. Maybe that’s why I used my first pick on Alexander the Great in my World Conquerors Fantasy draft. Not only did he solve the Gordian Knot, but he’s led the league in rushing the past three years. Plus, he’s a huge Disney fan. Rope Drop at the Magic […]

4 Steps To Magically Find Your Calling
Next week, Teevtee continues his series on the Thrilla in Parkzilla, but for now I want you to pick up a dictionary. College level, if you have it. Look up the word “Awesome.” If you don’t see the following image, throw your dictionary away, because it is just a sad waste of trees: That’s right. […]
