Disney, Indiana – Episode 140 – Potpourri for 100

Posted on November 10, 2013 by Scott

Today’s episode starts off with one of our beloved hosts in jeopardy (or is that on Jeopardy?). Will this host survive and make it to the bonus round or will they land on bankrupt when the final answer is given (wait, what show was that again?)

Scott and Tracey bring their listeners a hodgepodge of Disney goodness this time around that includes two video game reviews, a movie review, a book review and a mini-trip report!

They discuss their recent visit to the Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Next up is a look at the new Lego Marvel Super Heroes video game and the Lone Ranger Playset for Disney Infinity. Our hosts then review the 2013 not Disney, but filmed on Disney property film Escape from Tomorrow and wrap up the review fest with a look at book It’s Kind of a Cute Story – a self-told memoir of Disney Legend Rolly Crump.

So sit back, make sure to be closest to the retail price without going over and enjoy the show.

Welcome to Disney, Indiana!

Disney, Indiana – Episode 100 – Who Framed Disney, Indiana?

Posted on May 13, 2012 by Scott

Hello everyone and welcome to a very special episode, number 100! For this milestone episode our hosts decided to cover something near and dear to co-host Scott’s heart. That’s right, it’s time for Wall-to-Wall Roger Rabbit in Disney, Indiana!

They start off in Belle’s books with a look at what started it all with a review of Gary K. Wolf’s 1981 novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit? After that, they head over to the Main Street Cinema to review the 1988 classic Who Framed Roger Rabbit, directed by Robert Zemeckis and released by Disney-owned Touchstone Pictures. Besides the film, they also review the three Roger Rabbit shorts released to the Big Screen.

Once they finish their popcorn, they return to Belle’s to review Gary K. Wolf’s follow-up novel Who P-P-P-Plugged Roger Rabbit? and end their journey around Toontown at the Ink and Paint Club to talk about how Roger Rabbit and his pals have been used at the Disney parks around the world.

All that, plus some Roger Rabbit music on WWED, a call over to the Main Street Cinema and some very cool feedback!

Welcome to Disney, Indiana!

Posted on March 18, 2012 by Scott

In today’s episode, Tracey and Scott continue their year-long examination of the cartoon shorts of the Walt Disney Company with a look at Oswald the Lucky Rabbit is March’s Salute to Shorts segment. They’ll discuss the history of the character, review some of the shorts, look how Disney lost and then regained this classic character.

Tracey then stops by Belle’s Books to share her thoughts on the book Walt Before Mickey: Disney’s Early Years, 1919-1928 by Timothy S Susanin. It’s a book that we’ve been using as a reference for the Salute to Shorts segments in 2012.

Then our hosts will take a look at the troubled history of John Carter, Disney’s newest live action film in theaters now. They will cover the long and strange development history of this project, Disney’s current involvement and share their thoughts on this film.
