Well, a lot seems to have happened since last time I logged on (it's so long ago, I don't remember).

Anyways, congrats to all the winners so far!

Congratulations, Luke. No doubt the most "informative" member who informs us of breaking Disney news almost every day! Well deserved award!

Consider yourselves informed!
Ah, so that's why we haven't seen Joan in a while!
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually I got it on good authority that she tried to renegotiate her contract for the Carpet coverage right in the middle of the Forum Awards!

:o

and UD would not play ball with her, so out she went. But you know in Hollywood, anything can happen; who knows she could return at any time....

Personally I like Joan out of the way.........she is a real annoyance. The awards can progress very nicely without her presence.

On With The Show!!!!!

I thought that was hilarious, but the short running time helps. I think watching the entire film like that would quickly wear out its welcome. Nice find, Aaron! :D

:lol: That vid was hilarious! The voices were just right so that they were high-pitched enough to be funny, but not annoying.

That last few seconds where he jumps off the balcony and falls into the water made my day. The high-pitched scream made it even funnier. Awesome video, Aaron.

For our next-to-last award, please welcome JAMES!

I, like many Ultimate Disney frequents, visit this site for the latest in the world of Disney DVD. Along with providing this information, UltimateDisney.com kindly provides us with DVD reviews of the highest qualities. Glorious colour images, amusing captions, and lengthy paragraphs of detailed information are all contained within these reviews, making them highly popular with Disney fans around the globe. UltimateDisney reviews are so popular that they reached a milestone during this past year- they reached their 400th DVD review, meaning that Luke, and his loyal staff must be doing something right. Tonight (or today) we honour the best of the past year's reviews, with Luke nominated five times against one admirable effort from Aaron. The nominees include a platinumed Cinder girl, a lion from Narnia, a Lady and her Tramp, one season of zany Muppets, a "special" kind of Tarzan, and Treasured Disney Rarities- 1920-1960. The review that has proven to be most popular (and therefore the winner) is-

<i>This is Luke's 14th Golden Mickey Award and his third time (including one tie with himself) for DVD Review of the Year. He has 24 total nominations this year and has previously won four times this year.</i>

Congratulations on your much-deserved award, Luke! Thanks also to James- that was a great speech!

The awards are winding down, folks, with only one category left to be presented: UD Forum Member of the Year! For that unveiling, check back tomorrow!

Congratulations Luke; very well-written review! I think you should print it out and frame it on your wall.

And Congratulations again to James for a very well-written speech! It really got me excited, and you cleverly mentioned everything that makes the UD reviews great. Good job!

Can't wait to see the last award and the closing ceremonies. Hmm, new member of the year; I wonder who it will be...

(as if we didn't already know. :wink: )

Thanks for the award! That review was one of the all-too-common absent-until-release date pieces that really gets me at the eleventh hour. So I'm glad that A) it wasn't an incoherent mess when I got it up by release date and B) that people actually enjoyed it enough to consider it the best of the year.

I tend to find more fulfillment in reviews of smaller discs, especially ones which I didn't write, so it's sort of a shame that something like that didn't and likely won't ever get commended. At the same time, thanks for the honor and FOR NARNIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Luke! The review was superb. Even if rushed at the last minute, it didn't show.
