How did YOU find Ultimate Disney.com?

Post by Kram Nebuer »

I found this site through the old e-mail newsletters from animated-movies.com (which is now distributed by animated-news.com). There was always a cool links section at the end and one link was of Chernobog's custom DVD cover art ( :) the wonderful artistic covers with the Spanish titles). From there I found the mainpage and enjoyed checking the site everyday for the latest DVD news! Then there was a reminder for board members to send in their Disney word jumble contest entries so I joined just to play! Then I started posting and here I am today! 8)

So how did you stumble on this wonderful site, which really is the ultimte guide to Disney DVDs(!)? Recommended by another member? Found from a google search?

I found it on a cold day in November of 2003 actually. I was looking for Old Yeller on DVD. And I found this site. And I instantly liked it and joined. I have loved this site ever since. This is the best site on the net. Everybody is nice and kind. 8)

Luke lured me here with promises of unlimited Padd Thai Chicken and free Siberian Husky pups. I'm STILL waiting on the Padd Thai Chicken....

(Luke posts on DVDTalk.com and I ventured over from there)

About two and a half years ago when I first got a DVD player. I went to Google typed in Disney animated checklist, hit I feel lucky, and as it turns out I was.

I joined about a year ago. It all started while i was searching for Disney Wallpapers for my P.C., when i came across TheDisneyExperience.com. I was browsing the site and found a "links page". On the links page there was a link for UltimateDisney.com and a small caption about it. I was not going to click on the link, but when i read the caption it said: "Learn about upcomming disney movies". I clicked on the link, fell in love with the site, and joined the forum!! :D

It's so far back I can't remember, but I think I was simply searching for a complete list of animated classics at the time (was just starting to build my Disney collection), and I came across this site. Without any undue bias, I found it to be one of the better ones and started posting on the board.

I think they still had the 'condom board' then, too. :)

As a huge Boy Meets World fan, I'd been petitioning for a DVD release for a long time, and was thereby familiar with www.tvshowsondvd.com. One day they posted a bit of information about BMW's release (which really excited me, of course), and credited UD.com as their source. I decided to check out the site, and not only was there BMW info, but it looked like a great site for Disney, which I loved. I kept checking the front page with increasing regularity and eventually the forum, too. Eventually it was some discussion on Pete's Dragon and Bedknobs & Broomsticks that caused me to register, and the Live-Action Countdown that caused me to strike up my first post. 8)

I knew Luke from another message board called DisneySites and we both shared an interest in Disney DVD's. He showed me this site, but I didn't post much on the old condom forums (as we lovingly called them). He kept nagging at me to become more involved with the site, so I started writing reviews for him, and when the site (and boards) got a new makeover, I joined for good, now here I am. ;)

That's exactly how I got here. I was going to say "turned left at Greenland" but the Beatles stole my line and used it in A Hard Day's Night.

I found my way here the same exact way as Loomis...a search for an animated classics list. But does it really matter how we got here? We're all here now and we're like family now and that's all that counts. I love you guys.

Well, I think it was after renting TLK, then buying it, I got interested in what else Disney had put out. Thru Yahoo! I must've serached for either a complete animated classics list, or info on the Platinums, and quite quickyly found UD! I wandered around the FAQs and informative pages for few days before actually entering the Forums. I immediately signed up, and acted like an idiot to ask you all whether or not to buy SB and PP! :lol: Ah, the good old days....
