Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln Returns

Posted on: Tuesday, March 31st, 2009 in: Disneyland

Straight from the Disneyland Resort…

A longtime favorite of Disneyland guests will return as “The Disneyland Story, featuring Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln,” an enhanced version of the show which appeared, in various forms, in the Main Street Opera House at Disneyland park from 1966 through 2004 . The attraction will reopen later this year in celebration of the 200th anniversary year of Abraham Lincoln’s birth.

The current Opera House presentation, “Disneyland: The First 50 Magical Years,” went on hiatus March 16, in preparation for the new “Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln” show. When the updated “Disneyland Story, featuring Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln” opens later this year, “Disneyland: The First 50 Magical Years” will be presented as part of the “Disneyland Story” display of art, models and mementoes in the Opera House lobby.

Also planned for fall 2009 is a prominent new home on Main Street, U.S.A., for The Disney Gallery. Formerly located above Pirates of the Caribbean in New Orleans Square, The Disney Gallery houses treasured Disney artwork and collectibles representing creative efforts from throughout The Walt Disney Company. A frequently changing exhibit area often includes never-before-displayed art. The Disney Gallery’s new home will be in the Bank of Main Street building, located next door to the Main Street Opera House and currently serving as the headquarters for Disneyland Resort Annual Passport processing. The Bank will continue to operate as an Annual Passport center until mid-summer 2009. After that, Annual Passport processing will move to the Plaza Pavilion, near the entrance to Adventureland.

The original “Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln” was created by Walt Disney and his Imagineers for the State of Illinois Pavilion at the 1964 New York World’s Fair and featured the world’s first fully animated human Audio-Animatronics figure, built by Walt Disney Imagineering. The show, made its Disneyland debut in the Main Street Opera House on July 18, 1965.

Can So Random be Poll’d Apart?

Posted on: Tuesday, March 31st, 2009 in: Demi Lovato, Sonny with a Chance, Tiffany Thornton

“Poll’d Apart” was an interesting Sonny with a Chance episode. We all know there are way too many people who think they know everything and use the internet to tell everyone else. And it was refreshing to see the issue from the “celebrity viewpoint.”

But before we get into all that, how could the guys ignore Sonny when she was looking so cute?

And Poor Tawni. That bald cap does not do her justice. (And LOL @ Sonny’s reaction in the mirror).

And now Tawni’s retreated to the air vent. At least she has hair again.

Wicked Witch of the Web. ‘Nuff said!

Wizards and Future Harper

Posted on: Sunday, March 29th, 2009 in: Selena Gomez, Wizards of Waverly Place

The newest Wizards of Waverly Place episode, “Future Harper,” was surprisingly good. I mean, I like every episode, but I never thought this one would be as good as it was.

We start this episode in the usual manner, lava surfing. Justin and Alex look absolutely thrilled. LOL

Future Harper

:) Alex.

Anyway, here’s Future Harper. Yeah, it’s definitely Harper.

Future Harper

Alex, as always, looks cute.

Ah Justin, he always knows how to make the most of his injuries.

Hey look, the kids are in Egypt.

And finally, from the funniest part of the episode, here’s Selena with the bottle of poison.

American High School DVD

Posted on: Saturday, March 28th, 2009 in: Jillian Murray

Jillian Murray (from Sonny with a chance) has a new movie coming out on April 7th on DVD called “American High School.”

I’ll be sure to post a review once I have a chance to see it. :)

Hannah won’t Cheat It (much like Sonny)

Posted on: Friday, March 27th, 2009 in: Emily Osment, Hannah Montana, Miley Cyrus

Last Sunday was the premiere of the 65th episode of Hannah Montana, “Cheat It.” As some of you might remember, Disney used to have a policy that would end all their shows at 65. Fortunately, that no longer seems to be the case for any show, and definitely not for Hannah.

Oh, and it seems like Disney is on a cheating kick lately. First we had SWAC: Cheater Girls, and now this? I’m waiting for the Wizards episode next.

Anyway, here’s Hannah with some random pretty boy.

Here’s Miley looking excited.

And an individual whom is certainly not Rico. I mean, he has a mustache! LOL

Now we see Lola with bright blue hair.

We also have some fresh steamed Miley.

High School Musical 3 Screencaps!

Posted on: Wednesday, March 25th, 2009 in: Ashley Tisdale, High School Musical, Jemma McKenzie-Brown, Olesya Rulin, Vanessa Hudgens

Well, it took me long enough, but I am proud to present over four thousand High School Musical 3 Screencaps! I absolutely loved this film, and I think it was a great way to cap off the series.

And I’m not ashamed to admit that I teared up a couple times. Especially at the rooftop dance scene.

There are great caps of the big six characters: Troy Bolton (Zac Efron),

and Taylor McKessie (Monique Coleman).

Although I wonder if Taylor is really deserving of being a “big six” character. Would anyone have really noticed if she had been replaced with a large rock? LOL

We also got a few good shots of Kelsi (Olesya Rulin),

and Tiara Gold (Jemma McKenzie-Brown).

Hats off to our wildcats!

(And when they make HSM4 they better bring Sharpay back after they left the door open for it.)

Mom and Dad on Deck

Posted on: Monday, March 23rd, 2009 in: Brenda Song, The Suite Life

With a new Suite life on deck episode scheduled to air on Friday, I’m happy to announce that I’m actually caught up with the series!

Screencaps for “Mom and Dad on Deck” are now up on the site. It seems a little strange to me that they brought both the parents on the same episode when they could have easily made separate storyline.

Suite Life of Mom and Dad on Deck

However, I guess the musical number more than made up for it. :)

I must say, though, that I didn’t believe that they had a car on the ship. There’s no way that would ever fly.

On the plus side, here’s London.

And… that’s about it.

When it comes to teaching art, Alex is kinda smart.

Posted on: Sunday, March 22nd, 2009 in: Selena Gomez, Wizards of Waverly Place

(I felt like rhyming in my title, yo.)

Art Teacher” might have been a better Wizards episode if we had actually seen Alex’s art teacher in a previous episode or two. The whole thing just felt a little too manufactured for my tastes.

Of course, there are no “bad” episodes, for each and every one is cull of cute scenes with Alex.

Wizards of Waverly Place Art Teacher

Although this episode had a bit of a rarity, Max talking to a girl.

Harper has halfway normal pajamas. Not a single fruit!

And what do you know, TJ’s still around. Thought his parents would have sent him off to WizTech or something.

Because I can, more Alex.

Oh, and that one Olympic medalist guest stared. Here’s a picture of her.

And here’s Selena with Dwayne Johnson. Funny how he always shows up on Disney Channel shows right before his Disney movies come out.

In conclusion, Alex is cute.

Good night everybody.
