I'd like to thank UltimateDisney.com & DVDizzy.com for all the hard work and top-quality reviews they have provided for my reading enjoyment, and for my opportunity to contribute to those reviews from 2006 to 2007, and again in 2010. It was a valuable and worthwhile experience and one I treasure greatly. It not only allowed me to contribute to one of my favorite websites, but allowed for my thoughts to be shared with others throughout the entire world wide web.
Thank you, Luke. Thank you, Aaron. Thank you, netty, CJ, and Renata. Thank you, Kelvin and indianajdp. Thank you, deathie-mouse. Thank you to every past and present reviewer, interviewer, event reporter, photographer, etc. Thank you for making UltimateDisney.com one of my favorite places to visit, and DVDizzy.com one of my favorite non-Disney DVD review sites to read. The quality of work here is right up there with Bill Hunt's The Digital Bits and Ron Epstein's Home Theater Forum. I will always consider the three: UD, TDB, and HTF, to be the crown jewels of DVD reviewing on the internet.
Thank you to all the members, from the past to the present, from the regulars to the lurkers to the banned, from my all-time-favorites to my least-liked. I may have openly disliked some of you, and for that, I'm sorry. In the end, we're all human, and I might have treated some of you badly. Again, I'm sorry. Then, there are others whom I've grown to love and care for. We shared fond inside jokes, silly nicknames, and an overabundance of Milk Buds. I'll miss you most of all. And finally, there are a few of whom I wish we didn't drift apart. I miss the conversations we used to have, the joy in sharing opinions on each others' interests. And, of course, there were some nut jobs out there who I never really cared for, but did my best to pretend that I did. All of you made the forums an interesting place. There were good times and bad, frustrating and joyful, apathetic and AMAZING. **downs a shot** In the end, it's a place that always changes, and is never the same, no matter how much we wish it to be. For now, this is the next change.
It's been a great ride. Hope to see you elsewhere on the 'net. Until then, I'll just say "good night, but not goodbye"...

And if you care to sing along, "da da da" and all...
Just one more round, friend,
Then homeward bound, friend.
Don't forget me in your dreams.
Just one more song, friend,
And then so long, friend.
The nights get shorter it seems.
Just one more rhyme, friend.
Yes, it's a crime, friend.
But you know time, friend.
Time can fly.
So it's goodnight, friend.
Goodnight--but not goodbye.
Just one more drop, friend,
Before we stop, friend:
One more moment face to face.
Next time you're dry, friend,
Try stopping by, friend,
If there's a light in the place.
We may not thrive, friend,
But we survive, friend.
Look, we're alive, friend:
You and I.
So say goodnight, friend.
Goodnight--but not goodbye.
Just one more dance, friend.
Just one more chance, friend:
One more chorus, one more tune.
It's not the end, friend,
If you're a friend, friend,
Then you'll come back to me soon,
But it's too late, pal,
To celebrate, pal.
You'll have to wait, pal.
Don't you cry.
Now, it's goodnight, friend.
Goodnight friend.
Goodnight friend.
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da da da,
(Follow me!)
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da,
Da da da da da.
You're such a dear, friend.
You know I'm here, friend.
Is that a tear, friend,
In your eye?
Now, it's goodnight, friend.
Goodnight friend.
Goodnight--but not...
Albert "Escapay" Gutierrez
