  • The Incredible Incredibles
    Walt Disney released THE INCREDIBLES in 2004 to worldwide acclaim. At heart it is a story about a superhero family forced into denial. Once the greatest superheros ever, they have to live a quiet, stifling suburban life. This clever story was penned and directed by Brad Bird, fresh from his stint at THE SIMPSONS.
  • Monsters Incorporated
    Jumping out of closets everywhere, MONSTERS INC. hit theaters in 2001 to rave reviews and tremendous audience approval. Co-produced by Pixar and Disney, the film went on to gross more than $524 million -- making it second only to "The Lion King" in terms of overall gross. Moreover, it went on to win an Oscar for Best Original Song. Not too shabby.
  • The Parent Trap: On the Disney List
    Disney is synonymous with family entertainment. From theme parks to resorts to cruises and more, parents can rest assured their children are exposed to quality content and entertainment. Films like THE SHAGGY DOG, FREAKY FRIDAY, and HOMEWARD BOUND all come to mind -- and that's not even touching the animated features. The latest in the long line of family-friendly titles is THE PARENT TRAP.
  • The Love Bug: Herbie Lives
    An irascible car, Herbie was unleashed on American audiences in 1969's "The Love Bug." Enjoying a mind of his own, Herbie can drive himself. Most of the time, Herbie is shown as a grayish-white Beetle with red, white and blue stripes running from the front bumper to the back, and has a large number "53" on his engine lid, hood and doors. The exception to this is when he first shows up in The Love Bug. Then, Herbie is a non-descript grayish-white Beetle with a gray sunroof. The sunroof suggests that Herbie is a 1963 model. In the movie, Herbie is named after the uncle of a mechanic.
  • Your Disney Movies List and More
    Buried in our collective conscience is at least one Disney movie we recall from our childhood. While Disney was a pioneer in the industry, their commercial success with new movies lagged a little bit in the 1980's. In the late 1980's and the 1990's Disney shook up their company and revived its animation success. This period was known as the Disney Renaissance. Disney released several movies during this time period that were critically acclaimed and commercially successful. All but one of these movies was nominated for an Academy Award and certainly the most successful of them was The Lion King.
  • Piglet's Own Movie
    Piglet has always felt a little scared, a tad inadequate, because of his size. In A.A. Milne's original "Winnie The Pooh," the poor little one is quoted as saying, "WHAT?", with a jump, to show that he hadn't been frightened, he jumped up and down once or twice more in an exercising sort of way. In Chapter Seven, "It is hard to be brave," said Piglet, sniffling slightly, "when you're only a very small animal." In Chapter Nine, Piglet says, "It's a little anxious," he said to himself, "to be a very small animal entirely surrounded by water." Piglet's catchphrase was, "Oh, dear! Oh, d-d-d-dear-dear!
  • Unseen Pete: The Loveable Dragon
    A revolutionary breakthrough in live-action and animation, "Pete's Dragon," was released by Walt Disney Production in 1977. The story of a young orphan boy named Pete and his dragon, Elliott, the movie was the first Disney feature film to be released on home video in 1980. Animators chose to make Elliott an oriental dragon as such dragons are associated with good fortune. Indeed, Elliott is a do-gooder out to protect his orphaned ward.
  • Disney Movies Through the Years
    One of the most successful companies over the last century has been Disney. Since the early 1900s they have been enchanting audiences and reminding everyone that it's alright to dream. The success of the movie studios is only rivaled by that of its theme parks. All in all, Disney is a global phenomenon, with amusement parks all over the world and annual revenue of over $35 billion.
  • The Neverending Disney Movies List
    What could you buy for $10 a month in 1923? That was the amount paid for the rental of the little office in Los Angeles where Walt Disney and his brother, Roy started what is known today as the Walt Disney Company. This company began with animated films which were called ALICE COMEDIES. After only four months, a move was made to a larger space where the name of the company became Disney Brothers Studio.
  • Piglet's Big Movie
    Piglet is a character belonging to the "Winnie the Pooh" series of books by A. A. Milne. Piglet is a pig and the best friend of the main character, Winnie the Pooh. Despite the fact that he is wee in stature, and displays a relatively nervous disposition, he often finds himself conquering his biggest fears. His biggest achievement is often being brave, even in the face of his greatest fears. Piglet is based on one of the stuffed animals that Christopher Robin Milne had as a child. He has been voiced with a squeaky little voice that is pale pink with a green jumper in the Winnie the Pooh book illustrations, and is second shortest next to Roo who is only slightly smaller.
  • Pete's Dragon Roars On
    Before the day's of Disney's Pixar and digital animation, there were a special group of people whose innovation brought to the big screen some amazing work that blended live-action and animation. Originally planned as a live-action production, "Pete's Dragon" never got off the ground, ending up in the Disney vault for about two decades. Almost ten years after the death of Walt Disney, the fantasy of "Pete's Dragon" was revived. In the original version, Pete's invisible dragon, Elliott, was only going to be seen once in the movie. But under the guidance of Don Bluth and Ken Anderson, Elliott not only came to life, but has become one of the most beloved Disney heroes in history.
  • Down In the Lab: Frankenstein
    When you think of the Frankenstein movies, names like Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Mary Shelley and James Whale come to mind. But have you ever heard of Kenneth Strickfaden? Long ignored in the annals of horror movie fame, Strickfaden is the man whose electrical designs made Frankenstein the movie that it is. He was called "Dr. Frankenstein's electrician" and was directly responsible for all of the electrical effects used in the monster creation scene. He also created all the electrical effects for the slew of other Frankenstein sequels. He was even a stunt double for Boris Karloff, who was deathly afraid of electricity.
  • Mad Scientists and Solvents
    When you think of a mad scientist, you're bound to summon images of a be-speckled, manically laughing, slightly hunched over crackpot in a laboratory surrounded by beakers full of bubbling, fizzing solvents and crackling electrical machines. The mad scientist is eternally obsessed with ranting monologues about being misunderstood by the world. He's not mad, he's misunderstood and now the world has to pay for not supporting his megalomaniacal wish to play God.
  • The Call of Duty: Mulan II
    The plucky heroine is back to help save China once again. After her last campaign, Mulan had returned home a hero, and with the heart of her hunky hero, General Shang. Much to Mulan's disbelief, Shang comes to her home and proposes. Before they can be married, they are both called upon to serve China once more. They are charged to escort the Emperor's three lovely daughters to be betrothed so an alliance can be formed to stave off the encroaching Mongols.
  • The Intrepid Walt Disney
    One of the most beloved names of the late Twentieth Century, Walt Disney was born on December 15, 1901 in Chicago, Illinois. The son of Elias and Flora Disney, who had moved from Ontario, Canada in 1890, the family moved from Chicago to Marceline, Missouri for four years to farm. One of their neighbors paid Walt to create pictures of his horse and a love of drawing was born.
  • Holes: The Power of Friends
    The movie Holes follows Stanley Yelnats, played by the likeable Shia Leboeuf. He is a teenager convicted of a crime he did not commit and is soon sent to Camp Greenlake for punishment. Despite its lush sounding name, Camp Greenlake is located far from any lakes, deep in the desert. Here, Stanley and other interred kids work by digging holes - hence the name of the story. That is all Stanley and his fellow inmates do for hours and hours. What they did not know is they are actually digging for something.
  • Holes: Digging In the Dirt For Friendship
    The movie HOLES centers on the character of Stanley Yelnats, played by the likable Shia Leboeuf.

Here, Stanley and other interred kids work by digging holes -- hence the name of the story. That is all Stanley and his cohorts do: dig holes for hours and hours. What they did not know is what they are digging for.
  • Disney DVDs: The Blu-ray Horizons
    Before you begin giving guided tours of your new DVD library, be warned: there is a new technology format on the loose. Initially, Blu-ray and HD-DVDs were in direct competition for the home entertainment market. But it became evident, however, that HD could not compare to Blu-ray with regards to data storage or audio and video transfer rates. This short-fall made Blu-ray, which will allowed studios to release superior quality films, the de facto heir apparent to DVDs. Moreover, when Sony enabled their PS3 with a Blu-ray player and reader, the race was all but over -- Toshiba quickly pulled the plug on HD-DVD. So what is Blu-ray and how long do you have before your DVDs are obsolete?
