Disney DVDs are for Everyone to Enjoy
Nobody wants to be the parent who permits their children watch movies all the time or who uses the television as a baby sitter. However, on a rainy day or for a special occasion, it is welcoming to be able to have a shelf of movies that are favorite fare for kids. It is also a wonderful idea to have a portable DVD player to entertain kids on long car rides or airplane flights or on the occasional days when your children have to accompany you to the office!
The Great Disney Movies are also some of the Greatest Movies
Almost from its quiet beginnings as an animation company housed in a garage, Walt Disney has been turning out hits. From the iconic Mickey Mouse to the popular collection of Disney princesses now taking over the world, Disney has captivated both children and their parents. For the eighth decade running, they are producing blockbusting movies which dominate the box office.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs - a new step in Film Making
The creation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs began sometime in early 1934. This was Walt Disney's first effort at producing an animated film. To this point, Disney had effectively produced a series of animated shorts entitled The Alice Comedies as well as Mickey Mouse and Silly Symphonies.
Sleeping Beauty - A Classic You Should Revisit
Sleeping Beauty was the sixteenth film in Walt Disney's canon, following Lady and The Tramp and preceding One Hundred and One Dalmatians. It was the last feature to be based upon a fairy tale, written by Charles Perrault. Indeed, Disney Studios would not return to a fairy tale again until the 1989 release of The Little Mermaid. Moreover, this was the last feature to use hand-inked cells.
Pinocchio is the Best Hand-drawn, Pre-computer Disney animation.
Pinocchio, the character, was imagined by Carlo Collodi in 1883. The adored boy made from a block of pine by Geppetto the woodcarver was first introduced in the story The Adventures of Pinocchio. Collodi was very keen on using a impish, cynical character to explore his own personal convictions and cultural and political critiques. As late as 1938, this was how Walt Disney had characterized the much-loved wooden puppet who longed to be a real boy.
How Disney's Cinderella Changed Animation for Ever
Cinderella, the twelfth movie released by Walt Disney, was the first full-length film since Disney released Bambi in 1942. The Second World War and a series of lower than expected box office returns made the prospect of a full-length feature questionable. Indeed, most critics consider Cinderella a pivot point between the classic Disney animation of the 1930s and 40s and the new animation of the 1950s and 60s.
Baby Boomers still remember the Micke Mouse Club
Those who were teens in the 1950's remember with fondness coming home from school in the latter years of the 50's to watch Walt Disney Studios' Mickey Mouse Club. The second television show offered by Disney, The Mickey Mouse Club was televised in part to help finance the creation of the Disneyland theme park. From 5:00-6:00 in its first two seasons and from 5:00-5:30 in its last two, American teens were glued to the television.
Ratatouille Is Tasty Film Fare
Ratatouille, the eighth Pixar production, is a delicious treat. The irony of the kitchen's most horrifying menace, a rat, becoming a fine chef is too ironic to resist-at least, that is what Pixar thought of the idea when it was introduced in 2001. The name comes from a French recipe and translates literally to "toss food." It is difficult to imagine a more delightful title for this film.
Why I Chose Disney's Cars from the Disney Movie Club
The 2006 animated feature film Cars is a movie that will entertain everyone in the family. In a world populated entirely by vehicles, Cars carries a message of admirable sportsmanship and examines the idea of success and how it is measured. The seventh Pixar film (the final one before Disney took over) is as delightful as its predecessors.
