10 Things I've learnt from UltimateDisney

Post by 2099net »

1. Bill in Freaks and Geeks has a HOT mom!
2. Never Land is two words, not one.
3. Bambi is way more popular with young male adults than I would ever have imagined (even young male adults with guns!)
4. Nobody else likes The Country Bears, except DVDJunkie (sort of, begrudgingly, but only because he likes the Disney park attraction)
5. Slipcovers for a DVD release are very important.
6. Trailers on a DVD release are not very important.
7. People actually look forward to new "Sneak Peeks" being released on their Disney DVDs
8. "Who watches the Watchmen?" Hu Noz?
9. Batman Begins. Superman Returns. X-Men Unite. Spider-Man just "is".
10. Nobody seems to play Disney video games.

I liked it before I was a theme-parkaholic. I even blind-bought the thing based on your recommendation (the R4 with widescreen no less). And enjoyed it! Shame there aren't any featurettes on the park attraction though.

The rest of that list is all too true :D

Yeah. Did I mention that my friend and I together have 10 guns total.

Maybe we should do a research project to explain why that is. ;)

Yes..Me, Zol and Isidour have had an impact on someones life haha. While I only own one gun (30-06) I still am quite the avid deer hunter.


I really do enjoy fishing too, so I should enjoy Finding Nemo more I guess :S

10 more things...

11. Some people do like The Country Bears...
12. ... But it still gets no respect.
13. Take the word "Disney". Change the first and last letters and you get... "Eisner"! coincidence?
14. Teacher's Pet: The Movie rocked very few worlds, but for those who's world it did rock, it was a life changing experience.
15. Disney's theme parks have a strange almost cult like ability to brainwash anarchic Australians.
16. Everybody loves Even Stevens, except for Disney's management, apparently.
17. As we all grow older, and mature into responsible 'net citizens who can use the search function, read the front page and show restraint with smilies, there will always be newbies to take our place. It's just like The Circle of Life!
18. Most people don't read the International forum. Hu Noz? One day the news that Song of the South is coming to DVD will be broken in there.
19. Madam Medusa was NOT Walt Disney's favourite villain.
20. House of Mouse is still not coming to DVD.

2099net.............no else seems to care but I think you need to look at the way you have spelled "LEARNED'..................you have it as "LEARNT', and according to my dictionary there is no such word. Can you change it please?

I'm relatively safe in assuming that he means American English versus British English.
