Leonard Maltin likes UltimateDisney!

Post by Disneykid »

I was poking through Leonard Maltin's official site looking for his opinion on certain films, and lo and behold, our very own beloved UD is listed on his links page.

"This site by and for Disney enthusiasts has the most exhaustive coverage I’ve seen of the studio’s DVD releases, as well as an opportunity for you to weigh in with your own opinions."

Congrats, Luke! It makes me wonder if Maltin is a lurker on these boards. Betcha anything he's actually Deathie Mouse! ;)

Yeah I found that out a while ago! He just loves Disney! C'mon think about it: Been the host of every single packaged tin, his biggest tear-jearker moment is a scene from Dumbo, and been the host of many DVD features. I'm glad there is some critic who loves Disney and hates Shrek 2! :D

UD has been on Leonard Maltin's site for quite some time. It's still exciting, nonetheless!

Wow, congrats Luke! :D What an honor.

Also, question...that Joaquín Garay site...would that be a relative of the same Joaquín Garay who voiced Panchito in the Three Caballeros?

So he claims in his site. Apparently he's his son.

Can't forget him! Here's what Eric Goldberg being interrupted for an interview while surfing UltimateDisney.com might look like:

We should tell him to start posting here, and if he is already then let us know its him.

Would be awsome to get Ollie to post here. :)

I'm not surprised, this is a popular web-site. Everytime you type Disney into a search engine, this site always comes up.
