Walt Disney World's New Animation Studio Tour Preview

My favorite Disney parks attraction of all time is...was the Animation Studio Tour. In its original form, it took my breath away. I well remember my sister and I walking through it, staying behind in each section to watch the film again and again, soaking in every detail.

When hand-drawn animation was killed off, the attraction died, too. It was replaced with a pale imitation, a weak sister that even Mushu couldn't save, at least for anyone who knew what once had been.

Now Disney is attempting to bring back the glory. Oh, it won't be an actual studio any more; there's nothing to draw where Disney movies are concerned. But as an attraction, it could be something wonderful again. These preview pictures certainly show it getting off on the right foot.

Disney Do-Re-Mi

Everybody knows the words to the song "Do-Re-Mi" from the film classic The Sound of Music. So think of that famous tune with these Disney-inspired lyrics:

Do, a deer, just like Faline,

Re, a firefly who's gone,

Mi, Gaston's most favorite word,

Fa, the family of Mulan,

So, what Killer likes to do,

La, la-lu is sung real slow,

Ti, Mad Hatter's favorite brew,

And McDuck has lots of Do!

Finding Nemo Glitches

We've collected some interesting bloopers from the Disney/Pixar film Finding Nemo, like these:

Why does Gurgle agree to escape to the ocean if he's deathly afraid of germs? Surely the aquarium water is more sanitary.

Dolphins can't talk underwater but every other sea creature can.
